Sony has launched its LinkBuds Clip model in the Indian market. They are priced at INR 18,990, and will be available starting July 13 on online as well as offline retailers.

The LinkBuds Clip are an open-ear earbuds in the clip-style design that is currently in vogue. The advantage of this design is that your ear canals remain largely unobstructed, so you still have some awareness of your surroundings.

Like other clip-style earbuds, the LinkBuds Clip feature a flexible clip that can adjust to your ear size and shape, along with a pair of what Sony calls Air Fitting Cushions that further help anchoring these in your ears, if necessary. The design is IPX4 rated for splash and sweat resistance.

The earbuds have three audio modes: a standard for everyday listening, Voice Boost for noisy places, and a Sound Leakage Reduction mode for quiet environments. Sony claims a balanced sound tuning suitable for all genres, and you also get the company’s DSEE feature for restoring details in compressed music. The earbuds have 9 hours of continuous battery life, and 37 hours with the charging case.

The Sony LinkBuds Clip will be available in four colors, Green, Greige, Black, and Lavender.
