Best base system sunglassess ever invented..........

If you’re a music lover, always outdoors, and you want your surroundings to be audible, then this is for you. Cons: ⁃ Difficulty with initial setup. It took a few tries before the app was able to activate and save the frames onto the app. ⁃ The “Global Fit” is too small for my head. I couldn’t enjoy the great sound quality while wearing it since it’s too small. I had to put the speakers next to my ear to simulate as if it fit. ⁃ The app doesn’t have an equalizer. Pros: ⁃ The tempo looks nice ⁃ Very lightweight especially for something that carries sound with a big punch ⁃ Sound quality is excellent as usual. The bass might be a bit too high, but that’s where I like it. The mids & highs are well balanced. ⁃ Battery life is excellent. No need to charge daily. ⁃ Packaging is great. The case it comes with is nice & sturdy. The USB-C charging cable & the cleaning cloth it comes with is nothing out of the ordinary. Overall, I believe it’s definitely an upgrade from the previous versions although they’re nice as well. Besides the size, it’s another great product by Bose.

This is not what I expected. I barely heard the music with the glasses on. I expect more from bowls. They felt cheap to me.

returning the glasses for the SECOND time - worked for 2 uses of about 1/2 hour play time each - then no longer worked at all

The ordering and picking item up was fine. But once we saw that items were missing from the box and trying to get help for it was very disappointing. Will definitely wait before buying anything from you all again.

Returned item wont stay connected, i bought these thinking they would be awesome, and i was terribly disappointed so i returned them

Eh, they felt kinda cheap. Plus they're not for the subway. People can totally hear them if they're near you. I returned them and got the bose earbuds that are epic.

To tight, not worth, you can buy one for 10 dollars without music and you are fine

Will not stay connected always have to reset nothing what I expected from this product several people on line very unhappy with this Bose produce

After reading all the reviews I found, I am disappointed and am returning the Tempo sunglasses. ONLY because of the wind noise while cycling.

After purchasing 5 of these. This was the last one. They stop working/charging after a few months on every one.

I thought I would find them useful but if your not just sitting in your car with no music or your house I wouldn’t recommend them .

A poorly designed frame and sound system. Frame is made of cheap plastic and does not fit.

Didn’t connect to my iPhone 14 pro at all. Very disappointed.

Love, love, love this product. Lightweight, great audio and the lenses are perfect.

Very cool concept, but not sure if its for everyone. I will start out by saying that as sunglasses, these work very well. They block the sun and make your eyes very comfortable even in bright sunlight. I didn't notice any glare or anything like that. I found them to be a little tight for my head, but I do have a big head. So I'm sure most users would find them to fit just fine. They do come with a few different size nose pieces so you can get the fit you need for your face. Now lets get on to the other features of these sunglasses. Right out of the box they are very easy to set up. You do it just like any other Bluetooth device. You pair it and can connect it through the Bose Music app. You dont really get much else with these sunglasses except for a nice case and the extra nose pieces. You don't even get a charging cable! Thankfully I had a few laying around, but I think for the price Bose could at least include a charging cable. As far as the sound quality goes, for what these are, its actually pretty good. You have to realize that these are essentially an open air speaker. Which means you get no seal around your ear like you would with ear buds or over the hear headphones. It's basically 2 speakers in the sunglasses that are aimed right at your ears. Think about if you've ever been to an outdoor concert. Its very hard to get really good thumping bass when you are out in the open air. For that you usually need to get a seal around the ear or in the ear canal. So if you go into it with that in mind, you will probably find the sound to be acceptable. If you are using these while out for a walk or out on a bike ride, or just sitting outside getting some sun they would work perfectly. They wouldn't work in louder situations like out on a busy city street or on a crowded bus or subway. They simply don't have the power or volume to be louder than those environments. I tested out a few phone calls with these as well and as long as you're in a fairly quiet area they work fine and the audio is very clear. Beware though that if you have them turned up loud, people in your immediate vicinity may be able to hear what the person you are talking to is saying (or listening to). They are an open air speaker, so people around you will be able to hear them if they are loud enough. With all of that being said, I think these are a very niche product and would be perfect for some people, but I don't think they are for everyone. I have read that Bose might add more features in the future like adding verbal navigation if you are out walking, or telling you about your surroundings like if you are touring a new place you have never been to. I don't know if or when that might be implemented, but that would be some cool uses for these glasses. I would say they are definitely worth checking out if you feel you have a need for them. Just don't expect the greatest sound quality. Bose did a good job with what they have, but simple physics don't allow to get good bass response from this kind of product.

Terrible Way too many conectiin issues either with my galaxy s21 ultra or iphone 12 pro max

Just ugly. Looks like fishing glasses. Way too masculine and unflattering for a woman.

The bettery was too big. It cause gap from sunglass and my face. I had to return it

Great glasses but a very very tight fit for many heads
