Bose Frames Rondo Audio Sunglasses

Looking for sunglasses and earphones? Well, Bose has hit onto a niche proposition with the all-in-one Frames. They can't deliver headphone-quality audio due to lack of bass, but as a clear audio delivery for podcasts, audiobooks, phone calls and the odd tune, there's some appeal.

  Fashionable design, Good audio quality, Multi-functional button is useful, Audio AR potential is good, Quick charging

• -

  Sound leakage, Feels odd to wear inside or when not sunny, Audio AR not fully realised yet, No battery charging from the case, Lack of bass, Battery life is limited

Great to listen to music without wearing earphones, the sound is crispy clear, does not bother others. My only complaint is the battery last few hours, so I can't wear them during a cycling session. I am glad I was able to install my prescription lenses

I love these sunglasses, they are good looking as well as high tech, wear it to make phone calls and every day commuting in the bus or train.

  Easy to pair, easy on off.

  when ambiance noise is loud, it is hard to hear the phone conversation

Fantastic quality ln sound looks good on me no one else can here only me

This is a clever idea. Only they do seem too light on the face. They would feel more like high end sunglasses if the material used was more solid feeling.The speakers are Bose quality so very good but they can’t replace earphones and on a cloudy day look a little odd.

The Bose Frames have a quality look and feel plus they are really comfortable to wear. The sun protection feels good and vision quality is nice, not too dark and on not so sunny days I like to use the blue lenses which offer slightly lighter vision.

Great quality and great audio! I usually wear ear pods but they can hurt my ears after a while. I used these glasses whilst I was trekking and not only are they great sun glasses, they're a fantastic audio device also. The frame itself is light weight, comes with a smart carry case.

I wasn't sure if I'd like these, I was a little worried I would be walking around with music blasting from my face. However, this is definitely not the case. The speakers are nestled into the thicker part of the legs and point directly to the ears, so there is very little leakage of sound.

I was very excited to try these frames. I love trying things that new and different . But these frames disappointed me.. I was expecting much better sound from Bose but you need to crank up volume full blast to listen music properly. The call function is useless..

Comfortable and well made sunglasses. However, I didn’t realise they use small loud speakers rather than conductive technology - which I’m not hugely keen on. The large arms aren’t to my taste either.
