Thanks to their small size and lightweight design, the LinkBuds S are some of the most comfortable wireless earbuds on the market right now, and the regular hole-in-the-middle LinkBuds are a standout when it comes to voice call quality. So the Teams push for that product makes a lot of sense. But I’m definitely most excited for multipoint coming to the whole lineup. It’s nice to be pleasantly surprised by tech companies every once in a while.
