Why You SHOULD Get The LinkBuds S vs WF-1000XM4

Buy Them Here:

Today we have Sony's budget friendly earbud going head to head with their flagship bud the WF-1000XM4. The quality of the LinkBuds S surprised me and outdoes the XM4 in ways. Tune in to fin out more! If you actually read this, leave a comment saying so, because I'm pretty sure no one does!👍

I just got my Linkbud S pair - these are excellent! Your review is spot on.

[LE_NOMAD]

Having tested both the XM4s and Linkbuds S. I was honestly disappointed in the XM4s. The Buds S do better in everything than the XM4s except ANC and battery. The ANC was STILL impressive, sound was more balanced. I really liked the Linkbuds S more than the XM4s.

LinkBuds S really sounds like a solid option for the money. Thank you for another great review, Picky! 👍

I deeply regret buying my XM4s. They're the most uncomfortable earbuds I've ever worn. They're enormous and feel jagged in my ear. The foam eartips themselves are comfortable, but they retain dirt and earwax and are super easily damaged if you try to clean them. They do sound good and the ANC is great, but I can't wear them more than 30 minutes to an hour without serious discomfort.

0:54 wow you are strong, only gymgoers know how impressive that bench is

Thank you for such regular good videos.. nicely done.

I have small ears, I could never wear anything by Soundpeats comfortably. The Linkbuds S fit comfortably and securely without any discomfort. If you have smaller ears, the Linkbuds S might be your best bet. The next closest bvest fit for me was the Fiil style earbuds and Earfün buds based on Fiil style buds.

Loved the hardstyle kicks for the sub rating!

I love your reviews bro! I just bought the link buds S and they’re great, and after reading a lot of negative experience and cons on the xm4 about the fit and having battery drain I guess ill have to wait for Sony to show the xm5 and hoping that they reduce the size. I really wanted to buy the xm4 but im afraid of buying them and having the same issues. Hoping that to be pretty soon.

Thanks for the fantastic review. Very helpful! Have you done any test with Microsoft Teams call in terms of connectivity, call quality etc?

[holdmyberd]

Can you try doing a comparison between the Google Pixel Buds Pro and the Sony Linkbuds S?

[SnazzyCH]

lol I'm looking at various in ear headphones, when I then look on YT I come across a review of them by you!!! Struggling to find a decent review of the Denon AH-C830NCW though @ £99 in the UK. Good reviews by the way, you've helped me cross a few off the list!!!

Please answer my question

I can't/won't use spatial audio/head tracking and wireless charging...and those nodding gestures....

So now, which one should I get ?
Link buds s @ (100$)
Xm5 @ (200$)

I already have Sony xb901n (200$)

[VLADICAKG]

Does your earbuds automatically change mode as soon as you start call so that you hear all surroundings? It seems like ANC is not working at all during the call and there is some white noise happening as soon as the call/ recording is started. Do you have same issue? Thanks

[mikeBlogic]

I tried linkbuds s but they will go back. I have the earfun free pro and they are so much better in clear Sound, Bass and they cost the half price.

[Oboy-bo]

I had the xm4 switch to linkbuds s and I'm just not getting the bass unless i only listen to bass test and the volume near to max. It's more like having a midranger and tweeter in my ear.

[Broken_Wings_]

It still hasn’t been at least three months since multi point was added to the xm4?

[diegomahoudeau]

Any issues with the linkbuds s? Reddit says it has a lot

[TyrobBajan]

First of all I love your reviews very detailed and informativ.

I had the Liberty 3 Pro's but they are broken now. So I need something new.
I struggle to decide between the Nothing ear 2, the Linkbuds S and the Liberty 4.
Which one would your recommend? Sound quality is the most important thing.

All the best✌🏾️☺️

Please help me out, I have watched all your videos and more and can’t decide between the Sony WF-1000XM4s, the Bose QC Earbuds 2 and the Sennheiser Momentum TWS 3. I use them for some bass heavy music when working out and for listening to podcasts and watching movies. Which would be the one trick pony amongst these? If none, which would provide the best voice clarity and separation when watching movies? The Bose’s lack of multipoint is a bit heartbreaking.
