Small, lightweight, and always comfortable. Weighing approximately 4.8 grams, the LinkBuds S are the world's lightest and smallest Hi-Res True Wireless earbuds with Noise Cancelling. With a compact driver and Bluetooth Audio SoC (System on Chip), along with a high-quality processor for Noise Cancelling on the same chip, they are also ultra-compact. They are 40% smaller than the WF-1000XM4 headphones.
Pleasant and secure. The LinkBuds S fit perfectly with their ergonomically shaped design tailored to the ear. We developed the LinkBuds S using extensive ear shape data collected since the launch of the world's first in-ear headphones in 1982. Additionally, we evaluated the sensitivity of various ear types to create an ideal shape that is comfortable for many people.
Transparent ambient sound or high-quality Noise Cancelling. These headphones are unbeatable in every way: they offer the best transparent ambient sound from Sony in True Wireless earbuds for interacting with the world around you, and high-quality Noise Cancelling when you need to focus. The LinkBuds S automatically switch between Ambient Sound mode and Noise Cancelling, depending on where you are and what you are doing.
Adapts ambient sounds for all-day wear to your activities. The intelligent adaptive sound control recognizes where you are and what you are doing, adjusting the ambient sound settings for an ideal listening experience. Over time, it learns your behavior and recognizes places you frequent, such as your workplace or favorite café, and adjusts the sound to the environment.
The best call quality from Sony in True Wireless earbuds. The precise voice pickup technology controls the external and internal microphones, along with modern audio signal processing, ensuring ultra-clear conversations even in noisy environments. The noise-cancelling algorithm has been optimized with AI and machine learning from 500 million data points.

Source: GalaxusThis is how they sound: What I like about the Linkbuds S with my very differently shaped ears: they sit comfortably in both ears without pinching and don't get in the way even after hours due to their light weight. In terms of sound, they are not in the same class as the more expensive WF-1000XM4, but they are not far off...
