Sony’s new wireless headphones have a hole

The Sony Link Buds are presented as the most original wireless headphones on the market, but their curious design is also functional.

The truth is that Sony didn’t need to turn heads, considering the praise its wireless headphones have received so far; it could have just released a new version of the WF-1000XM4, but that’s not what it has done.

The Sony Link Buds stand out for their ring design, which is where the sound comes out and what we have to put in our ears; Of course, that makes the sound mix with the noise around us, but that is the intention. Basically, Sony wanted to make open wireless headphones, which are usually headband.

In an open-back headset, the outer casing doesn’t close (hence the name), exposing the internal speaker; The great advantage is that this way you get a much more natural sound, more like listening to speakers. Sony claims that, with the Link Buds, it has achieved the same thing in a much smaller format, although in return, it has removed noise cancellation.

In addition to state-of-the-art design, these headphones are packed with technology, such as DSEE, which decompresses music to play it at its highest quality, and a sensor that detects if you touch your skin, allowing you to control playback without having to touch the earcup. They are also compatible with Google Fast Pair to pair them with Android phones.

The Sony Link Buds will be available for 180 euros in Spain, and they will have to face alternatives with great sound quality, such as the T or the.
