The Sony LinkBuds Clip are open-ear earbuds that clip onto the outer ear and leave the ear canal free, with a 10.0 mm driver, IPX4 splash resistance and up to 9 hours per charge (up to about 37 hours with the case). It suits commuters, runners and desk workers who want music and calls while still hearing what is going on around them.
Who the Sony LinkBuds Clip is for
Staying aware on the move: The clip-on earcuff design keeps the ear canal open, so traffic, announcements and coworkers stay audible while you listen.
Runs and workouts: The earbuds are rated IPX4 against sweat and splashes, and the two included Air Fitting Cushions attach to the flexible clip for a steadier hold.
Calls from two devices: Two microphones work with a bone conduction sensor to pick up your voice, and multipoint keeps two Bluetooth devices connected at once.
Podcasts and quiet rooms: Tap the left earbud twice to switch between the Standard, Voice Boost and Sound Leakage Reduction listening modes.
Skip it if: you want noise canceling or LDAC, since this open design streams SBC and AAC only, and note that no USB-C cable comes in the box.
Bluetooth: 5.3; SBC and AAC; multipoint (2 devices)
Battery: Up to 9 h per charge (AAC), up to about 37 h with case; 3-minute charge for about 1 h
Calls: 2 microphones plus bone conduction sensor; up to 4 h talk time
App and listening modes: Sound Connect app with 10-band EQ; Standard, Voice Boost and Sound Leakage Reduction modes
