Sony just shook up the Bose rivalry with these earbuds, and I wasn't prepared for it

A ZDNET review highlights how Sony’s LinkBuds Clip include removable ear-fitting cushions that significantly improve comfort, stability, and audio consistency for users who typically find clip-on earbuds uncomfortable or unstable. The cushions help distribute pressure and maintain speaker alignment during daily wear and exercise, offering a better overall experience at the product’s $230 price point and suggesting a design direction other manufacturers could follow.
