Bose Tenor Frames Audio Sunglasses | No More AirPods?

- Like most AirPods owners, I love my headphones. They are convenient and sound great but sometimes, there are situations that call for something different. The Bose Tenor Frames Audio Sunglasses certainly are different and provide a unique perspective in the way we listen to audio. The real question is can these replace my AirPods?

Note - These are similar to Bone Conduction in the way it feels when listening to music but the technology is different.
This is perfect for us Marines we can walk and hear music (we can’t have air phones or answer calls and walk while in uniform) at the same time. My prayers have been answered, I can now wear my sunglasses (look cool, protect my eyes and listen to music while I’m uniform and working outside AND I CAN ANSWR CALLS WHILE WALKING IN UNIFORM ON INCOGNITO!!!) This is perfect !
I have the exact same sentiment, hahaha. This is right up our alley!
Same here
This makes me chuckle. I was in from 2002-2007.
2002: You couldn’t have your cell phone with you while you were in uniform. Like, you couldn’t even have it in your pocket. If you got caught, you’d get chewed tf out.
2007: You were expected to have your cell with you at all times (excluding PT). If you didn’t answer a call from your command, you’d get chewed tf out.
@@room2048 Watch out, though - if no one knows, you might look like you’re having a conversation with yourself, lol.
I swear our NEX has such a large supply of these because they know 😂
this is perfect for the beach, hiking and being active, especially enjoying the sunset. Its really great especially when out hiking as you can play anthems to suit the scene without blocking out the natural sound around you. Really cool tech
For me as a nurse this is perfect. Swap out the lenses for 15% tint and bam! Can't get in trouble for having earphones in my ear. It wont look unprofessional and i can have my tunes hovering around me.
3:40 Why the hell is there music playing in the video when we want to hear how loud the music is from the frames?! This is just bad editing...
?? That music IS the music that's coming out of the sunglasses.
@@Ervin-1190 There's background music throughout the video that CONTINUES playing during that section. There are two sets of music going at once there
@@Ervin-1190 there’s a background music running in the video
It's probably to avoid copyright issues
They do offer prescription lenses, not just sunglasses
For the tenor? I have them for the altos and didn't see the tenor prescription.
They do but have to buy with the glasses with them
I bought a pair of these today and love them. I bought them to wear while riding my motorbike and they work perfectly.
They're not loud enough, and they're not the clearest sound, but it's the best thing h I have found by a mile.
Air pods fall out and roll around my ear when I put my helmet on. They're terrible.
Would I buy these again tomorrow.... absolutely.
Best purchase I’ve ever made, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! So much happiness with these
Question 1: are they heavy/bulky feeling or do they feel normal?
Question 2: does the audio leak? Like if you walk past people would they be able to hear your music
@@natesavoie8264 don’t feel heavy and yeah if there cranked up super high and ur like in an office setting people around can hear it a little bit but overall not at all.
I dont like have the outside blocked out by my earphones when im in public so i can definitely see the value in them
I got these on sale cause they were basically the same as some of the high end glasses, really needed to replace my Oakleys after a few years and I’m loving them
i work outside everyday around traffic and these things are exactly what i need
They work amazing for mobile detailing I can protect eyes hear my surroundings and hear my favorite music. Battery life could do better but they are still great sunglasses when the battery dies
There is a good aftermarket for lenses in these. Be cool to see a follow up video.
I'd like to know about how well the lenses stand up over time/scratches
and do the electronics continue to function normally
Bose always amaze consumers with their products and technology.Awesome Bose.👍👍👍👍
I got Bose frames from winning a contest. I only use them at the park. On a sunny day. Still use my Galaxy Buds+ the most. Until those black AirPods with surroundings on comes out.
Just found a pair on the beach! They were sitting on the wall by shower, filthy as if someone found them and set them there! Lucky me! I cleaned them, googled them and OMG $249! Broken of course? Dead battery? Nope! Battery was 100% and they sound AWESOME! WOOHOO lucky me!
I use the Altos as prescription glasses and the speakers are super convenient when I don’t want to reach for my AirPods, like when need to take a discreet call.
"Discreet call"? Ok....I'm intrigued 😂
I play Google maps when walking threw the city on vacation with music works great. Plus block the sun
My Bose headphones lasted 5 years and I treat them like shit nowadays 😂 no brainer, these are awesome!
Perfect for this Floridian ☀️😎 🎶
It improved the quality of my life, I love the product.
You can find lenses they are like transitions for these. Light to dark as you go near UV. I’ve done that with mine.
Where'd you get them
I love these I live in Florida , and I like to know what's going on around me so this is perfect
Why couldn't you put prescription lenses that get dark when you go outside and lighten back up when you come inside???
You can.
I don’t have a problem with Price. I would like to see variations of style and clear lenses for indoor use
3rd part lens manufacturer makes them. I ordered a pair of clear lens that gets dark in the sun from Revant Optics. Pretty nice!
@@downsouthlouisiana , Thanks👍
Good compromise - transition lenses
I think its a cool idea! I’d buy it, if they have a clear lenses option & I’d pop in a dark shades on! That could work for me!
They do have a clean option
To bad they discontinued i love these glasses.
I am blind and I am very interested in this product.Are you planning any giveaways? LOL!
Tx for sharing this information!
Nah... they look like something a nascar driver would wear.
I don't think these are meant to please anyone who's an audiophile (who should stick to studio quality cans), but only for those who want to get around, be immersed in their environment and yet have audio layered (but not inducted) in. But for those who get distracted easily when they can't hear something clearly, this is not for them, for safety reasons, even when walking. I enjoyed them but found that for the most time, I had the volume up at about 90%, and for that reason alone, I knew it won't meet my needs for a typical outdoor bike ride or run. The upside is that if I didn't mind the amount of loss, they wouldn't run the risk of popping out of my ears when riding, and disappearing into the dirt!
PS: My Airpods Pro are fitted with custom foam earbuds, so they are pretty snug. I lose them usually when they slip from my hands! 😆
Have you tried any Oculus headsets? If yes, how does the sound compare?
Thank you! Very helpful
I slapped my lenses from my prescription and 97% fit wow what a Coincidence!!!
Think I would mainly use them on vacation at the pool and on the beach
Yes
I get your point completely about the advantages of smart glasses versus the discomfort of Airpods inside your ears. I have used the Amazon Echo Frames version 1 and version 2 and they are really appealing for precisely this issue. I am not a audiophile so the shortcomings in music quality don't concern me and the advantages of comfortable long term wear, with a smart voice assistant built in, far outweigh the negatives of the sound quality for music. I would love Apple to release smart glasses where you don't have to have Airpods-like devices stuck in your ears all day. I think a lot of people if they tried it would find it very appealing. There is definitely a market to cover this issue and I am sure Apple would nail it over Amazon if they bring out smart glasses
In your opinion which is better Bose or Echo Frames? Thanks
@@t.terrell7037 Unfortunately, never tried Bose but Amazon Echo Frames 2 are quite good but only fall down a little bit with the lack of really close smart phone integration
@@ColinHughesUK Bose Quite Comfort ear pods are great.
Im a motorcycle rider who needs prescription lenses. I need something like these due to wearing only open face helmets
Those are the best for playing live poker
on the motor?
Great idea for truck drivers
What type of writing pen is that next to the glasses ? 👀🧐
I found them tinny with little bass and barely enough volume. For the price, I passed and returned them back to Bose.
Not bad. I’d have to audition them for sound quality. Not a huge fan of the wayfarer look, but… I’ve tried exercise walking with AirPods Pro and it’s a fail for me. The audio ducks with every foot strike. Don’t know how else to describe it, but it’s def off putting.
Bose quite Comfort earbuds are great. Sound is very good and if you get the right fit they stay in when I ride my bike or go to the gym.
I’m sold!
This is quite useful for blind people, my grandpa is blind and got a pair, he can answer calls or listen to some music without losing perception of the environment, he doesn’t feel safe walking with his AirPods.
The big problem is its battery capacity, it only lasts a couple of hours.
It’s rated for 5.5hrs which is on par with a lot of other headphones really.
I've had mine for a year now, I get about 5 to 6 hrs of play timw
Wow they sure upgrade
They are epic for outdoors ect. Great sound.
How call quality
1:27 If only one First World problem existed, this would be it. Wow. Just... wow.
Spot on. I enjoy reading the comments on videos like this just to see the absurd, idiosyncratic "use cases" that the average schmuck thinks should exist JUST for them. You don't want to get hit by a car? Try paying attention to where you're walking. We grew up with a Walk-man and headphones without all the "wipe my ass for me" tech, and we all survived just fine.
I’ll get these and wear my sunglasses at night 😂. I saw these at the store. They offer different color lenses.
Wad are those price plz ..????
They are perfect for blind users.
Yes, i’m looking for a frame like this. I don’t like to attach something on my ears, especially when receiving a phone call.
Why bose ? Already recognized for the sound quality
Problem :
How long can the frame standby connected to the phone and receiving a phone call ? Since i wear glasses for daily activity.
They lasted me just under 6 hrs today. Charged up for 1 hr and good for the rest of the day. Problem solved
These look nice, better looking than AirPods and probably won’t fall out as easily. I would have to hear the audio quality first but considering by the poor quality of AirPods, I would probably buy these.
their great. not loud like headphones. might get these since I ride a motor bike
They don't work after 6 months. I had to go to bose service center multiple times, got it replaced for free but then again did not turn on after 6 months. Went back again and told me that you need to buy a new one and it failed due to hardware error.
I recommend not to buy Bose Frames.
I've had mine for a year now. No problems whatsoever. Love them.
So what smart glasses did you get to replace them? Thanks
Are they polarized?
Yes.
These would be perfect for the beach if you can keep them out of the sand
At my job we’re not allowed to use earbuds or anything like that. I got these and they have no fucking idea! Yeah!
I used to work as an apprentice optician at Lens Crafters. I would never purchase these. I’ve adjusted at least 1000 pairs of glasses and these look like a nightmare to adjust. My store would have most likely turned someone away if they asked us to adjust them. No matter how well you take care of any pair of glasses, they will always get loose over time. They have no nose pads and they’re heavier than a regular pair. So when they get loose they will be sliding down your nose A LOT more than a regular lighter pair of glasses. The arms can not be heated up and bent for a snugger fit because of the tech in the speakers. So they’d only be able to be bent in inward at the nose bridge. But overtime they will need to be bent at that one location that they will either snap, or they’ll lose their aesthetic appeal cause they would be bent into almost a V shape at the bridge. I guess the main use case I could think of is for motorcycle riders. Bluetooth speaker helmets are very expensive and helmets should be replaced after a year or so. And no matter how loose they get, the helmet will help them stay in place. Other than that these seem like a nightmare.
Went to eBay and got transitional lenses for $30
Just picked up mine today for $230.
In your opinion are they worth it? Better than Echo Frames? Thanks
They look nothing like wayfarer. 😂
Why are you acting like Ohio is in the arctic, and only spending time outside three months of the year? It's pretty nice outside from at least early May to late October. The fact that you like to be inside, more than you like to be outside, isn't Ohio's fault. Leave Ohio alone.... (please)
So deaf people are not safe while driving. Tss get your facts straight buddy
ohio? 🤨
Are the waterproof? Gotta be waterproof so I can wear them on the river. Yes?
the problem is its ugly...

This guy never gets it 👎
