Sony Linkbuds WF-L900 TWS headphones with unique design leaked online: expected specs

A new pair of Sony true wireless earbuds have been leaked online, showing off a next-generation design that the Japanese electronics company could use in its upcoming earbuds. The headphones are reportedly called the Sony Linkbuds WF-L900 and feature a unique circle design, suggesting they may offer an open sound experience. The latter could be a key innovation in the true wireless space, which suggests future headphones could be introduced alongside the current flagship WF-1000XM4.

Sony Linkbuds WF-L900 Key Features

According to the leaks, the headphones have a rather unique design. They have a round body similar to the current flagship WF-1000XM4 in terms of their round design. However, along with the main body that houses the sensors and microphones, the headphones also have an open circular ring that will reportedly be placed over the ear canals.

This suggests that Sony can innovate to create open-back headphones even in true wireless format. Open-back headphones generally sound more natural as they don’t run into problems like sound resonance and heavy bass or bass in their sound signatures. This, in turn, makes open headphones the preferred choice for audio professionals who require accurate sound reproduction for music production.

Not much is known about the audio performance that the Sony Linkbuds WF-L900 has to offer beyond basic speculation. The headphones offer active noise cancellation and can have all the usual perks that its current flagship headphones already come with. This will include smart gestures, programmable noise reduction levels, and an equalizer that allows users to adjust audio quality through a companion mobile app.

In the future, it remains to be seen when Sony might release these headphones and how much they will cost. Sony’s current flagship true wireless headphones have already received critical acclaim for good sound quality, and its future headphones may build on the same.
