Sony’s true wireless LinkBuds S earphones deliver quality audio performance and effective noise cancellation for less when you buy a pair for 25% off from Best Buy(Opens in a new window).
Available in black, white, or beige, the closed-design buds ship with four pairs of silicone eartips in various sizes to ensure every user gets a secure in-ear fit without additional accessories.
The outer part of each earpiece functions as a capacitive touch panel for controlling active noise cancellation (ANC), playback, phone calls, track navigation, and your paired device’s voice assistant. Behind that grainy matte material live 5mm dynamic audio drivers, as well as tech that supports Bluetooth 5.2 and AAC, LDAC, and SBC codecs.
An IPX4 water-resistance rating means you can take the LinkBuds S out for a run in the rain or wear them through a particularly sweat-inducing workout without worry. You shouldn’t, however, rinse them under a faucet or submerge them in a bath or pool. And always remember to dry the earpieces before placing them into their dock.
The case, which features a similar textured surface to the buds themselves, houses a USB-C port and manual pairing button. Sony estimates the earphones last about six hours on a single charge, and can get a 14-hour boost in the case. Battery life depends on volume and use of ANC.
