Unexpectedly comfortable, Novel (if absurd) tap control method
Very little bass, Soso battery life, Automatic volume adjustment is obnoxious
The Sony LinkBuds is definitely the most unique audio product to release so far in 2022, and it largely executes well on it's unoccluded design. However, it's hamstrung by all the same things as other unsealed earbuds...
