Bose 851337-0100 Frames Soprano—Cat-eye Polarised Bluetooth Audio Sunglasses—Black

Product Information

On the other hand, this reviewer found the Soprano to be a great fit, but others found it too tight. That said, they aren’t designed to replace standard earphones, but are more for people who want to be aware of their surroundings while also listening to some background music.

Amber worked at MacNN and Electronista from 2015 until 2017, reviewing software, apps, games, and tech accessories. This means that once your Frames are out of battery, you'll need to scramble to find a way to plug them in. Samsung has launched three new models in its flagship Galaxy range, taking on the iPhone 15 with the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra.While the second-generation Bose Frames do improve upon a few things such as finally adding volume control and better sound quality, their overall fit and niche appeal make them hard to recommend. Featuring polarised lenses, premium craftsmanship and Bose Open Ear Audio technology that produces sound you’d never expect from sunglasses. There's a major difference in sound quality and loudness between the Tempo and the two everyday sunnies.

In Australia, we got the Soprano lenses swapped out for polarized prescription ones by just going to Specsavers. It starts with the fit, fully refined from the original Bose sunglasses to match a wide range of face shapes. I know that I've never been able to get them to stay in my ears during any moderately strenuous physical activity.There’s no avoiding this one – the Frames aren’t adjustable (even with the extra nose clamps the Tempo comes with), so if you’ve got a slightly larger head, the fit will be very, very uncomfortable. However, we found that volume controls work really well in the Tenor and Soprano, but aren't as smooth on the Tempo, presumably because of the different materials used – the former two have premium, smooth plastic, while the latter uses a matte finish.
