Fake products - purchased 28 Dec 25 from their trading name A1 Tech Deals.Purchase a pair of Sony Linkbuds S as my old ones broke. When arrived the packaging seemed fine but when I got to opening them however the charging case didn’t feel right, I used my previous buds all the time and was used to flipping the lid up and down on my previous ones, this lid felt plastic and not rubber like which the Sony ones are and more steady. The sound also seemed fine but after a few hours went off (they're not now working). After more scrutiny I noticed there was no Sony hallmark printed on the actual buds, again this is something that I know the originals have and, even in A1 Tech’s advert pic for the product shows on the buds. Just to make sure of my suspicions, as I don’t want to accuse without proof, I went to Curry’s who confirmed the buds are fake, a really good fake pair mind you but nevertheless fake. I’ve emailed A1 Tech to request a refund due to the faulty item and 12 months warranty etc but that aside, the fact they’re not legitimate is disappointing as you put trust in these companies. Hopefully they’ll refund and if not will raise with PayPal. Worth noting that this company is actually omnibytes Ltd t/a A1 tech Deals who have a very poor rating for reviews.
