The verdict

The Sony LinkBuds Speaker is a good-sounding and capable speaker. Its unobtrusive design and charging cradle make it a worthy addition to any living room. Existing LinkBuds earbuds users will enjoy seamless switching between their devices, although casual listeners may have an issue with its steep price tag.
