Almost all the news regarding the Sony LinkBuds S is good. They’re small, light and comfortable, with respectable battery life and a stack of well-implemented control options. And they’re an agreeable listen, but their shortage of sonic animation and vigor leaves them a little short for the price.

Small in size and available at a more accessible price than the WF-1000XM4, if you’re after a more affordable pair of true wireless buds with good sound, extensive smarts and impressive noise cancellation, the LinkBuds S tick those boxes.

The LinkBuds S provide a very well-balanced package of decent sounding, noise cancelling earbuds with almost every smart feature from the flagship XM4 model. They’re only held back by sub-par battery life and the fact you can get a similar sound and ANC experience for less money if the smart features don’t appeal.
