Video text on how to wear the headset.

This page provides a text description of the parts of the LinkBuds Open and guidance on wearing them.


Part name and shape descriptions


The glossy side of the charging case is the top.

The charging port is on the back of the case.

When the case is opened, the earbud on the right is for the right ear, and the earbud on the left is for the left ear.

Each earbud has 3 parts:

  1. A donut-shaped plastic ring with a speaker that emits sound
  2. A round silicon bulb
  3. A flexible silicon tip that sticks out from the bulb, similar to a horn

The left earbud has a small bump near the base of the silicon tip.


How to get LinkBuds Open in and out of case


When in the charging case, the donut-shaped plastic ring is in the front, and the silicon tips point back and outwards.

When removing an earbud from the charging case, grasp the round silicon bulb and lift.

When placing the earbuds into the charging case, place the right earbud on right side and the left earbud on left side.

The donut-shaped plastic ring should be closest to you, and the flexible silicon tip points back and outwards.

The title of the video is

“Wearing the LinkBuds Open headset”.

Illustrated only with illustrations.

This text will be explained in the same order as the video.


This is an explanation of how to wear LinkBuds Open.

Remove the earbuds from the charging case.

Hold the earbud by the round silicon bulb with the plastic ring on bottom and the silicon tip pointing up.

Insert the plastic ring into your ear and adjust the earbud until the silicon tip fits comfortably in the groove of your upper ear cartilage.

If the silicon tip is not correctly tucked into your upper ear, the earbud may fall out when you move your head.


The donut-shaped plastic ring fits into your ear canal.

The round silicon bulb faces outwards.

The silicon horn tucks into the grooves of your upper ear so that the earbuds do not fall out when you shake your head.


If the silicon horn is tucked into your earhole, LinkBuds Open is not being worn correctly.

If any part of the earbuds are sticking out from your ears, they are not being worn correctly.


Finally, the Sony logo appears and the video ends.
