Connected, present

The open ring driver unit at the centre of the diaphragm maintains audio transparency, so you can hear the world around you. You’ll hear when someone calls your name while you’re on a call, and stay connected to your friends while you listen to music.

Automatically adjusts sound volume to your environment

Adaptive Volume Control is a smart function that automatically optimises volume based on where you are. Enjoy lower volume in quiet places and higher volume in noisier environments. 

Comfortable and stable

LinkBuds Open combines a shape that perfectly matches the human ear with an ergonomic design for a more stable fit. We’ve designed LinkBuds Open utilising extensive ear shape data collated since introducing the world’s first in-ear headphones in 1982, as well as evaluation of the sensitivity of various types of ears to ensure an ideal shape that is comfortable for many people.

Innovative Fitting Supporters

LinkBuds Open are built with an evolved geometric form that fits comfortably in the ear. The newly developed Fitting Supporters ensure a stable fit for various ear sizes. Their wide coverage range maintains the fit at the tip in larger ears and at the middle for smaller ears.

Compact and lightweight

Small and light, LinkBuds Open are as easy to store and carry as they are to wear all day, wherever you go.

Curate your look

You can customise your earbuds with a variety of optional Fitting Supporters and Case Cover accessories. Mix and match different colours to create combinations to suit your style.

An iconic case design

The white LinkBuds Open feature a unique marbled pattern, giving the elegant charging case a distinctive and classy look.

Music, as it should sound

Our unique 11 mm ring shaped driver had to overcome significant design challenges to deliver such high-quality sound. A high-compliance diaphragm and powerful neodymium magnet were specially selected to reproduce clear mid-high frequency sounds.

Superior sound balance

Our Integrated Processor V2 offers an authentic listening experience by reproducing the detail in your music with minimal distortion. The sound tuning is intentionally designed to be well-balanced from low to high frequencies, with natural and clear vocals.

Keeping your authentic sound

When an original music source is compressed, it loses the high-frequency elements that add detail and richness to a track. Our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE™) faithfully restores these to produce high-quality sound that’s closer to the original recording.

Ultra-clear, noise-free calls

With precise voice pickup technology and advanced audio signal processing, the person on the other end of the call will hear your voice clearly, even when you’re somewhere noisy. Our noise reduction algorithm was developed with AI machine learning using more than 500 million voice samples to suppress ambient noise and extract your voice clearly in a wide range of environments.

A new sound experience for AR gaming

If you’re looking for new entertainment options beyond music and movies, the LinkBuds Open uses new sensors and spatial sound technology to deliver immersive sound for Augmented Reality games like "Ingress" from Niantic. When playing "Ingress" with the LinkBuds Open, sensor and spatial sound technologies deliver a new experience: using head tracking, the sound is conveyed from different directions to line up perfectly with the action on the screen.

Quick Access

A shortcut to your music with simple taps, and no need to touch your smartphone. You can simply enjoy your music effortlessly.

Experience Auto Play

Auto Play delivers music and audio notifications exactly when you need them. Playback starts automatically when you put your headphones in – no need to touch your smartphone – and plays the right music for the moment, based on your daily routines or sensing activities like a daily walk, gym workout, or commute. And, with Voice Cue you'll still be notified of important information like appointments and reminders, so you can always stay connected to both life and entertainment wherever you go.

Near, not just on the ear

With Wide Area Tap, you can use double or triple taps in front of either of your ears to control your music playback, so there’s no need to touch the LinkBuds themselves to operate them.
 

Instant pause. Instant play. 

Just take the earbuds out of your ears and the music stops. A proximity sensor knows when you are wearing one or both earbuds. Pop the earbuds back in and the music starts again.

Control headphones with head gestures

You can operate your earbuds using natural head gestures, like receiving or declining calls or operating Auto Play by nodding or shaking your head.
 

Control with your voice

Get hands-free help – just say “Hey Google” or “Alexa” to activate your preferred voice assistant. Listen to music, connect with friends, get notifications, set reminders, and more when connected to your smartphone. Or, you can also use built-in voice control for volume, and playback when connected to any device.

Talk and hear only ambient sound

You can set Speak-to-Chat to automatically pause the music as soon as you speak to someone, so you can hear just ambient sound and conduct a conversation– handy if you want to keep your earbuds on or your hands are full. And once your chat is over, your music starts playing again automatically.

Total convenience, total customisation

LinkBuds Open are even better with the Sound Connect app. The simple, intuitive interface lets you dial in your ideal sound and shortcut settings, and can keep track of your recent listening history. Safe Listening even lets you check you're in line with WHO healthy listening habits.

Background Music Effect

When activated, Background Music Effect uses Digital Signal Processing (DSP) to make audio sound as though it’s playing in your space, rather than feeling like it’s localised in your head – perfect for when you’re doing other tasks, or want something a little less intense.

Listen all day, charge in minutes

You can enjoy a full 8 hours of listening from your earbuds and store another 14 hours in the case. That means up to 22 hours of listening time every time you leave the house. In a hurry? Just a 3-minute quick charge gives you up to 60 minutes of play time, and the Sony | Sound Connect app will even notify you when your charging case drops below 30%.

Multipoint Connection

For total convenience, these Bluetooth® earbuds can be paired with two devices at the same time. So when a call comes in, your earbuds know which device is ringing and connects to the right one automatically. 

Water resistant for everyday use

With an IPX4 water resistance rating, splashes and sweat won’t stop these earbuds, so you can keep on moving to the music.

Find your earbuds with Fast Pair

In one tap, the LinkBuds Open enables quick, effortless Bluetooth pairing with your Android devices. You can even check to see where you last placed it.

Easy pairing with your computer

Swift Pair makes it quick and easy to pair your earbuds with your Windows 11 or Windows 10 laptop, desktop PC or tablet. Pop-up pairing guidance appears on nearby Windows 11 or Windows 10 devices when pairing mode is selected.

Next-generation Bluetooth® audio

These earbuds are ready for LE Audio (Beta version), a next-generation wireless audio standard that enables ultra low latency, ideal for gaming.
 

A clearer, more stable Bluetooth® signal

For low latency and high sound quality, even around other interference, the Bluetooth® signal is transmitted to both ears at the same time. Thanks to the powerful Integrated Processor V2, you'll enjoy stable, skip-free, wireless sound.
