These Sony LinkBuds Fit Earbuds Are Now on Sale for Just $77
Not everyone needs big bass or premium features in a simple pair of earbuds — sometimes you just want something that fits comfortably, sounds great, and doesn’t fall out while you’re on the go. That’s what the Sony LinkBuds Fit do: they’re a modest pair of noise-canceling in-ear headphones that are currently on sale for $76.99 refurbished at StackSocial . That’s a significant discount from the usual $198 price tag for a new unit, and because they’re Grade-A refurbished, you’re getting functionally new, scratch-free earbuds with free U.S. shipping.
The design fits snugly thanks to its air-supported pods, and the silicone tips are comfortable enough for long-term wear without feeling stuffy. Despite their small size, they manage to pack in some serious features. You get active noise cancellation , which reduces background noise and traffic without completely blocking out the world. They also support ambient sound and adaptive control, so the sound changes based on your surroundings. The sound is balanced and clear—not too bass-heavy, but rich enough for podcasts, calls, and most playlists, this PCMag review notes. Plus, LDAC support means better streaming quality if your device is compatible, and the built-in mics do a decent job of picking up your voice on calls.
There are tradeoffs, though. Battery life is about 5.5 hours on a single charge with noise cancellation on, plus another 15.5 hours from the case, which isn’t ideal for long commutes or travel. There’s also no wireless charging, which might be a bummer if you’re used to just laying the case down on a mat. There is a USB-C port for fast charging, though, and the manufacturer claims 10 minutes of charging will give you 4.5 hours of use. So if you’re looking for small, reliable earbuds with enough features and sound to last you all day, this is a smart buy for a pair of earbuds .
