  • Incredibly compact and pocketable, Surprisingly decent audio, Cool new driver design, Holds position in the war nicely and better than you'd expect, Wide Area Tap provides a cool method to control that uses your face without sticking fingers near your ear

  • If you're a big fan of music and someone not keen on having to stop listening to do other things, there are definite reasons to consider Sony's LinkBuds. They're great at letting you keep listening while still hearing everything else, and they're seriousl...
