For a more open and balanced audio experience, check out the WF-L900 LinkBuds True Wireless Earphones from Sony. The 2-part construction of each earpiece features a 12mm open-ring style driver. This donut-shaped piece sits just outside your ear canal, while a closed secondary section with a flexible ear supporter hugs the ridges of your ear for a stable fit. This open-ear style is made to remove the pressure sometimes associated with in-ear headphones and keep you connected to your surroundings. With a V1 processor and other sophisticated technologies tucked inside, the LinkBuds are a balanced blend of clear audio, noise-free calls, and fluid conversations.

V1 Processor

The V1 processor inside the LinkBuds do a lot of work to ensure that you have an enjoyable experience when listening to your favorite music. It works to balance playback and provide clear mids and highs, which supporting Sony's Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) to match what you hear as closely as possible to what the artist intended. It also helps to power a more stable Bluetooth transmission from your mobile device, where the signal is transmitted directly to each LinkBud.

Precise Voice Pickup

To help ensure that the people you talk to during hands-free calls only hear you and not the ambient noise around you, Sony's utilizes Precise Voice Pickup technology. This takes voice signal processing and a noise reduction algorithm, along with more than 500 million voice samples, to focus on picking up your speech and suppressing everything else as much as possible.

Automatic Pausing & Volume Adjustment

Sony uses a pair of technologies to automate your listening experience, so you can leave the LinkBuds in throughout your day without an issue. Adaptive Volume Control automatically adjusts the volume based on ambient noise. If you're in a quiet location, it lowers the volume, and vice versa if you're someplace loud.

Speak to Chat offers additional automation, detecting when you speak and automatically pausing audio playback. It then resumes when you stop talking. This, along with the open-ring style of the LinkBuds, makes having conversations natural and intuitive while they are in your ears.

Tap Your Skin

Wide Area Tap is the name of the technology that Sony employs with the LinkBuds that lets you control music playback without ever touching the LinkBuds themselves. You can double- and triple-tap the skin in front of your ears to control your music.
