Sony LinkBuds wireless earbuds

Holey headphones, Batman!Sony’s latest earbuds have got something I bet you won’t see in theAirPods Pro 2: a whopping great hole in the middle to let the outside in. But these are no ordinary wireless earbuds. These are the Sony Linkbuds WF-L900, they’re not like the otherbest wireless earbudsout there and the European price will be €199.99, which is about £167/$225 without taking taxes into account.

As you can see, they’re not your normal wireless earbuds. But they’re a lot smarter than they look.

You gotta hole with it

Now, of course, letting outside sounds is what a lot of people like about regularAirPods, which is whyApplekept the not-quite-in-ear design for the 3rd gen, but this is an interesting development from Sony regardless.

The WF-L900 also get Sony’s Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE),GoogleFast Pair and Multi-Pairing, and they’re certified IPX4 for water resistance. Battery life will be around 5.5 hours plus another 12 from the cary case, and instead of touch controls they will apparently detect taps you make in the front of your ear. We’ll find out whether these are weird and wonderful or just weird later this month.
