Customer Ratings & Reviews

Listening to music through my sunglasses seemed very weird to me; how could you get any sort of decent sound without a speaker in your ear or on your ear? After bringing these glasses home, I was happy to see they charge with usb C, and the charging cycle was pretty fast; downloading the app, and pairing them to my iphone 11 pro was a breeze, and within minutes, I was listening to music on them; you get a few initial choices of music services to pair them to, but, they actually work perfectly with any music source you have on your phone. The process of walking around, listening to nice sound, making phone calls, all while wearing very stylish and nice fitting glasses, was a real treat! I think they are polarized, but its hard to tell, and, you get a couple different nose pads to help with the fit, if needed. I must say, I was very impressed with the fit, the sound, the ease of use, and I would definitely recommend them to you if you are looking for a nice pair of sunglasses that allows you to use your phone just like they were ear buds,.. you wont be sorry!

Bad quality.,................ .....,.....................,....

Took it back. I have head phones. Didn’t need these.

Ear buds hurt they can not be used at night pick up others phones

Not worth the price . Speakers r outside no privacy

I bought these frames on 3/27/2022. They worked fine until 9/15/2022. A little over 5 months later they no longer connect to ANY bluetooth device. I went through all the trouble shooting from Bose for every situation nothing worked. Now they are just out of warranty Bose wants $189 for a new pair. Not Impressed Bose.

The Bose - Frames Tempo Audio Sunglasses are a comfortable and good looking pair of sunglasses that offer excellent quality sound. Although a little bit heavier than regular sunglasses, they include several nose pieces to ensure comfort. They are also available with prescription lenses. Setup and pairing is easy through the Bose Music App for either IOS or Android. I listened to audio books and music from my iPad and other sources. The speech from audio books was particularly clear and presented a great listening experience. Music was adequately loud and very high quality. I realize that this is subjective but I have been using high quality in ear air buds for the last few months and the Bose Sunglasses performed subjectively as well. If the idea of wearing attractive sunglasses that also produce attractive sound appeals to you, I would recommend these Bose Sunglasses.

These are by far the most technological pair of sunglasses I've purchased to replace my Bose SoundSport + Sunglasses combo when running. It's lightweight, comfortable and looks and sounds great. The main reason for the purchase was to have more spatial awareness when running and it doesn't disappoint ... now I'm able to comfortably hear my music AND be aware of other things happening around me. At first I thought the fit was going to be too tight and uncomfortable but after my first use, I understood why; it needs to be snug w/ the constant movement from running and the wide temples makes it very comfortable for long periods. My only wish is that the tips were slightly curved.

I grew up in Framingham, MA, the home of Bose and have owned almostvevery product ever produced. These frames were far inferior to any Bose product i have ever had the pleasure to own. In the store....a ten out of ten! On the golf course and on my motorcycle, i could barely hear the music. Please improve tem as I woukd live to re-buy them when they perform to the Bose level of which i am accustomed.

My husband has not had the opportunity to use his sunglasses that I purchased for Christmas as the sunglasses did not come with a charger and we are having difficulty finding a charger for it. The sunglasses were not charged so I cannot tell if they work or not. Very disappointed. (I would not have purchased this if I knew that a charger was not included). I would advise purchasing this item in the store and not online.

Most everyone is certainly aware of Bose and their incredible speakers and systems...but sunglasses with speakers! As a leader in the industry with their technology and innovation, Bose does it again with the addition of the new Tempo Speaker Sunglasses. The only way to describe them is think premium Oakley Flak Jacket sunglasses with industry-leading Bose speakers built into the frame...they're just not Oakleys though (more on the sunglasses shortly). I was a little skeptical right up to the moment I put them on...then...wow! The sound is amazing, it truly is immersive like you're wearing over-the-ear headphones. In the Box - the Tempo sunglasses, a zippered carrying case, cleaning cloth, multiple size nosepieces and directions. Pretty straight forward, like buying a pair of sunglasses. Setup - This took all of 2-3 minutes. The instructions in the box are one page...download the "Bose Music" app, create an account (if you don't already have one) and connect the Tempos. That pretty much describes the process, it couldn't be much easier. Once the app was installed and sunglasses were connected, there is a small tutorial that outlines all of the features on the sunglasses. That's it, you're glasses are setup and ready to rock! Functionality - Like most modern headphones, the Tempos have a number of cool hand gestures/controls to manage music (play/pause, skip forward and back), phone calls, power and volume. I really like the volume control on the right temple, simply slide one way for up and the other for down...no need to take your phone out of your pocket to control. Another nice feature is the power off feature, just turn the glasses upside down for a couple of seconds and they turn off. Phone Calls - It's super-easy to pickup and end calls, just touch the power button on the right arm either once to pick up or twice to end. The call clarity was great, I talked to a number of clients and they had no idea I was using my sunglasses! The Sunglasses - not to be forgotten within this package is a great pair of polarized sport-style sunglasses. I wear Oakley Flak Jackets for running, mountain biking and fishing, and as mentioned earlier, these are similar in style and quality to those sunglasses. The lenses are black with a silver iridium-like covering and are polarized. The lenses can be swapped out or removed for cleaning (if desired). Very comfortable and the quality is top-notch. Well done Bose! Pros: - The immersive music quality is so surprising for such a small speaker - Quality construction one comes to expect from Bose - Ease of setup and use of the system - Did I mention the immersive sound! - Button and gesture controls are very practical - Sunglasses are amazing and polarized for use on the water, etc. - Supports phone calls - Padded travel case included Cons: - People around you will hear your music or phone calls Overall the Bose Tempo Audio Sunglasses absolutely surpassed my expectations and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great pair of athletic/sport style sunglasses with top-of-the-line Bose speakers built in. It has changed the way I run, ride and fish...no more earbuds and sunglasses..just the Tempos!

Tight fitting glasses sound was really hard to hear. Not really worth the price.

I have bone using bone induction headphones while road and mountain biking so I can keep my ears open for cars, other bikers, mountain lions and other potential hazards. They work well but the bass isn't good and I can't hear them at higher speeds with the wind rushing past my ears. I just bought the Bose Frames Tempo and used them on four rides over the weekend and they are awesome. Great sound with full bass and they don't interfere with my helmet straps at all. This is a great product. Great work Bose!!!

I don't recommend. Unable to pair to bluetooth through Bose APP. There s alot of glitches and i dealt with tech support and i sent mine in for replacement and they send me back a refurbished and still the same problem. I do not recommmend...

Complicated to set up. Only happy with it as sun-glasses.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I purchased this for my husband and one speaker sounded busted so we exchanged it.., the second one sounded better he didn’t use much until a month later and now they do not work. It won’t charge. This is so frustrating.

Went through 4 pair in less than two years. Thank goodness they finally just refunded my money.

The glasses were a gift to my husband and they were a hit! He loves them. The sound is amazing, the glasses look good. My daughter and I are thinking we want a pair now.

Very Good Sound in these sunglasses. They also fit firmly on my head which is a huge plus while working out.

The sound is amazing. Bose always nail it in that area. For the price, the battery life should at least go a full day before having to charge, but an hour or two is all that I get. My sunglasses are NOT attractive. They look like sunglasses for the blind. I wish that they were more modern looking with a more square design to them.
