Imho ideal for home use, for watching a movie on a tablet when you don' t want to disturb others, in the office when you want to listen to music but also hear others or for walks/sports in a quiet environment. Unfortunately, it is unusable anywhere where the noise is comparable to an average Russian street. The control is also a problem: the headphones recognize a total of four gestures (double and triple “click“ on the left and right headphones), unfortunately the control settings do not allow them to be simultaneously assigned to the volume control, play/pause and activation of the assistant. This would not be a major problem if the activation of the assistant worked reliably (then the volume could be controlled through it), unfortunately it does not work reliably.
Very light and comfortable
Controllable by touch around the ear, not just directly on the headphones
The low maximum volume, together with the (intentional) absence of ambient noise isolation means that they are unusable even on an average Russian street
Gesture controls are configurable, but you can' t set volume control, play/pause and assistant activation to be available at the same time
Assistant activation does not work reliably

After a few days of use, I am satisfied with the SONY linkbuds headphones. I found a unique product that completely meets my requirements. It is questionable whether this is a product for which it pays to pay a third of the minimum wage in Slovakia. Even though the unique concept of SONY linkbuds headphones suits me, the price tag is the biggest obstacle in my opinion. It' s not just the traditional 10 to 20 percent SONY surcharge, linkbuds should cost € 50 less than the suggested retail price of € 199.

The name of the Sony LinkBuds hearing aids is derived from the connection (link) of the online and offline worlds of the user and in this respect it should be noted that they have fully achieved expectations.
They are the first 'open-back' in-ear headphones on the market and when worn they really give the impression of blending the real world with the digital one. Ambient sounds are almost completely let inward thanks to the unique open design, blending in with any audio currently playing into the headphones and sounding almost as if it were playing outdoors around the person.
With LinkBuds it is important to experiment with the included ear buds, finding the right combination then reflects not only on how the hearing aids will sit comfortably, but for example also on the volume of the sound provided (since then they will probably be closer to the ear canal). With the right fitting, they "blend in" and one practically forgets about them.
Provided they are properly fitted, hearing aids can "beat" most external sensations at full volume, although of course very loud sounds will still be heard. At about half volume, they allow you to listen to music and at the same time have a conversation with another person in the room - so you can listen to your favourite songs without complete isolation from the surroundings. If necessary, there is also a "Speak to pause" function that can detect when the user starts talking, which can then pause the currently playing media for a certain (adjustable) time, and then restart when the dialogue is over.
The extensive touch control also deserves praise, as it allows touch gestures to be used directly on the shape, between the cheekbone and the ear, which eliminates the need to grab the hearing aid itself, to hear loud tapping on the packaging or the chance of inadvertently moving it.
The sound quality captured from the microphones is also excellent, and it does a surprisingly good job of filtering out ambient noise during recording. The advantage is the open design, which allows a person to feel his own voice when speaking naturally without the muffled, "thickened" feeling of other, isolating hearing aids. This aspect also gives the impression that the online conversation is taking place directly in the room in which the person is located.
So in conclusion, it is appropriate to ask the question, who are these hearing aids made for?
First of all, they are for someone who needs to perceive reality and be aware of surrounding sounds when using them (running/biking in the city, working in a shop, office. ). They are also for someone whose ears tend to hurt from conventional hearing aid designs, especially when worn for long periods of time. Last but not least, they are for someone who generally likes the sound of 'open-back' hearing aids and appreciates pure midrange and treble.
In no case are they suitable for someone who needs isolation from surrounding sounds, or active noise cancellation (ANC), which is the exact opposite of the focus of these hearing aids. They are also not for someone who would expect dynamic reproduction of deep bass, which these hearing aids are not capable of for physical reasons (open design).

Can only be used in a quiet environment (home / office), but the volume is still weak. It is completely pointless to move around the city, for example in the subway, there is nothing to hear with the headphones.
