All your worlds, always connected
LinkBuds have been created with a unique open ring design and allow you to tune into the outside world whenever you want, without compromising your listening experience.
The newly-developed ring driver unit, has the centre of the diaphragm open for audio transparency, allowing you to clearly hear the sounds around, so you’ll always know when someone calls your name whilst on a call or easily chat with friends while listening to your favourite songs.
Their new design makes LinkBuds the perfect companion for a range of uses, including working from home, gaming, listening to music, and more.
You’ll never have to switch off, thanks to LinkBuds’ new, super small, ergonomic design. Approximately four grams in weight, these earbuds are a marvel of miniaturisation.
Unlike conventional earbuds, the protective surface covering the speaker diaphragm is integrated within the housing, saving space. The overall shape has been crafted with the use of extensive ear shape data, collated since Sony introduced the world’s first in-ear headphones in 1982.
You’ll barely notice you’re wearing them, making them the perfect companion all day, every day.
