I own 2 pairs of these and really like them. Also, I have a slickdeals level problem buying earbuds... seriously, who needs 20+ pairs... anyways, here's a few of my personal pro's and con's.

Pro's:

The passive sound is amazing when wearing them outside the house. I can still clearly hear everything that's going on around me while walking the dogs or grabbing groceries. This was the goal with this model when I initially purchased them. I liked it so much I bought a backup pair in white.

Inside, it's even better. I wear them a lot while laptop gaming on the couch when my partner and I are passively watching tv. I can still have a conversation and hear whatever is on the tv while also having game audio.

Battery life is pretty damn good. They haven't died on me during use yet, and I've had some pretty long stretches wearing them (4-6 hours) continually.

Cons:

The fit. Man, these are one of the most polarizing styles I've ever seen. My partner and my son both can't get a good fit no matter what wing tips we put on them. I have pretty standard ass ear holes so it's not an issue, but if you have tiny ports, they may not be stay in.

No wireless charging... seriously, it's the 2020's everything should have wireless charging at this point.

Sound quality. I mainly use them for things I'm not too interested in a audiophile experience with. If this were to be my daily driver I'd be dissapointed about the sound profile. Thankfully they're not. If I need that, I move to the XM3's or XM4's or Bud's Pro's or Bud's Pro 2's.... this may be a problem. Dammit SlickDeals.

Anyways, feel free to AMA.

Cheers,
Vulgar
Tried these and really wanted to like but weren't good fit.

The Samsung live buds (beans) are the only best game in town still for the open style. Have a few pairs and everyone at home loves those. Get them if you haven't.
These are my go to earbuds. Most comfortable I've ever used. Doesn't create any pressure in the ear canal and can hear everything around me. They are good for phone calls as well. Getting a bit older so just got the bose ultra open and while they sound better not as comfortable for longer sessions. Sometimes it sits comfortably but other times hurts a bit.

Got a second pair (black since my first pair is white). Gave them a nice alcohol wipe down, updated, and tested out today. They're working great! The thing I like most about these buds are that I can wear for 3+ hours without discomfort.

I've been using Shokz bone conduction open ear headphones for years now. I ordered these refurb Sony Linkbuds from this same dealer last year to compare but they were DOA so I returned them. I decided to now give them another shot (I bought the white ones, now out of stock at this price). Based solely on music quality, these very easily sound better than the Shokz - I was pleasantly surprised. While I'd rate the Shokz as a product a 9/10, the sound quality I'd rate 4/10. I noticed an immediate difference with the Linkbuds - much better instrument contrast and fullness. I'd give the sound quality at least a 7/10. Like the Shokz, the bass is really lacking but otherwise the Linkbuds sound great (note that you can get decent bass out of the Shokz if you put in ear plugs and listen completely through bone conduction, but still the music quality is well below the Linkbuds). The blacks are back in stock at the same price:

I received my Linkbuds today, but unfortunately, the left earbud was very distorted, so I returned it today.

I bought 2. One was perfect and like new.

The other right earbud doesn't work half the time, otherwise it's blown out and half the volume of her left earbud. The one with the bad right earbud also had a pretty used case. Could barely read the serial number.

Got mine today. Offered $25.99 and it was accepted.

These are going to replace my AirPod pros for all situations except air travel. My pros never fit well and always become loose and fall out. 2nd gen AirPods were fine, but the pros are awful for me.

These stay in and sound just fine. Time will tell as I try them out more.

these either fit in your ears or they really really don't fit at all.
Mine always felt like they were falling out and hit the ground many times. I had to return.

Every other earbud i've ever tried fit perfectly.

That is how the AirPod pros are for me. They feel like they are falling out…and they do.

Got mine a few days back. These things are amazing for the price. Both of my earbuds work great. Wish I would have bought another pair 🥲

Did everyone get all the ear fittings? I am missing the Medium ones, and I feel like for my left ear, that is the size I need best.

Did anyone get the medium fittings?

If anyone has a medium set they won't use, in white or black, I would pay the shipping and a few dollars for them.
