The verdict
This is an imaginative product with a lot to like about it. For those who want to combine ANC and transparency mode in one product, the LinkBuds Fit are stealthily one of those products that will make a lot of people happy even if it doesn't make headlines. It works well, and has the hardware behind it to carry even picky users for a while.
✓Liked: Comfort, LDAC, Connectivity options, Customization options
✕Could be better: No transmitter in case, Isolation
