Product Manuals

Q: can these be modified for prescription lenses?

A: Yes they can

Q: I have owned several bone conducting devices. My experience is that they are not loud enough for activities like biking. Can you tell me anything about how loud they get and if they have been tested by cyclists?

A: Hi Lamkarp, thank you for your question. I can confirm that the Frames do not use Bone conduction. I would recommend giving them a try at your local store.

Q: How long does the charge last?

A: My charge last a week

Q: Can you wear these on top of your head when it’s not sunny and the speakers still line up with your ears for good quality sound?

A: Yes. The volume would have to be a bit louder.

Q: Are they waterproof??

A: No they are not.

Q: Can prescription glasses be fit it into the frames?

A: Yes, but Bose will not warrant your product once you do that.

Q: hi so i was wanting to know if i was able to switch the lenses to prescription lenses

A: The salesperson said there was prescription lenses that were available

Q: Can you get clear lenses instead of sunglass lenses?

A: I wish! I’d use these at my desk for conference calls if I could order plain lenses. Currently, they aren’t available, but I’m hoping!

Too cool
I absolutely love these glasses, they are so cool. The sound is so crisp and clear. I love that there’s nothing directly in you ear. They are very loud but not too loud. I was concerned that the mic wouldn’t pick up & I would have to yell for ppl to hear me. I’m heard very well. My only complaint is I wish the battery lasted longer.

Overall 5/10, needs tweaks before highly rated
Bought these in the spring, so I've had them long enough to give real feedback. The look of the glasses is really cool. I get compliments on the all the time. I love the charging cable. Love that hassle free, magnetic connection. The sound is like a 7/10. They sound good and I love being able to go hands free when exercising or just shooting a few basketball shots, but they need to have a higher peak level. Especially on phone calls they need more power in the drivers for these to be viable outside a quiet setting like an office or at home. Here is where things kinda go south: 1) Fitment: they're way too tight behind the ear. At first it was great but if I wear these for more than 15 minutes I start to get headaches. Maybe I have a large head but they squeeze and its unbearable. 2) Fitment (2): there's no way to adjust them. The part that hooks behind the ear doesn't curl down far enough to prevent the classic slide down when I look down. I tried to take them to an eyeglass place and they said they wont adjust them because they don't want to damage the electronics in the heat machine. It's a hassle to get them to fit right. Maybe they could have an adjustment point on the back of the arms or make that part out of metal. Not sure the correct fix for that. 3) Durability. This is the big one; they just stopped working about 3 weeks ago. They won't turn on. It wasn't water, it wasn't dust. I casually wear these and keep them in the case. Took them out of the case and they just didn't turn on. I'm looking into the warranty. Very disappointed they didn't even last a year. So definitely need a V2 with these very basic issues addressed as far as I'm concerned. It's a great concept and has lots of potential but with such a fast failure rate
