Not worth it

It is too tight and causes aching. Not worth the money!

Problems with the fit of the frames.

I bought this about a month ago but have not had the chance to go to an optometrist to get prescription lens fitted to the frame. One thing I noticed was that the frames are too tight at my temples and I know that with prolonged wear, they will cause me headaches. I was told that the frames could not be adjusted like regular frames that I wear for prescription glasses. That is quite dissapointing for having paid a premium for these glasses. Another point is that even with the largest nose pads, the frames will not touch my nasal ridge. I wish the frames had wire mounted nasal pads that can be adjusted like my regular prescription glasses.

Not a great product

The volume was very much audible outside the frames. There's no proper noise cancellation and it really irritated my calls receivers. Requested for a replacement.

Glasses OK, Best sound Quality

Best ear buds replacement. Wish had 1 for Office use. Something with a decent look. NOT SPORTY.

Amazing alternative to headsets

I bought these while on a trip and just love them. I like to listen to audio books when I drive and my passenger hates them. I got to listen all the way home with no complaints. I also had my gps running and the switch between them was flawless. I have never been comfortable with headsets on they hurt my ears these don't. I'm so happy I bought them.

Good audio, no noise cancellation though

Good audio and comfort and open ear design, but the microphone does not have noise cancellation. If you are somewhere windy (like on a bike), you won't be able to have a conversation.

Game Changer!

These sunglasses are a game changer for mountain bikers, which is what I use them for. They allow you to remain aware of your surrounding while delivering amazing sound. I was literally shocked the first time I put them on and heard the music coming from them. The sound is so clear. Even riding with wind noise you are still able to hear the music clearly.

Great value and great price

I bought a second pair so that one pair is Lensabl prescription sun glasses and the other pair have Lensabl transitions in them. I bought the refurbished frames and then through Lensabl, I ordered a pair of transitions for indoor use as well as use outside in the sun.

Good but not great.

Bought these a month ago and have to say I do enjoy the battery life and sound, However I wish the frame was about 1/8 to 1/4 inch wider so it isn't pushing on my temples so hard.

It's great as long you are not in a noisy environment, cannot hear if you are using equipment? if mowing or weedeating you are better off with plain sunglasses and noise canceling earbuds

Great sound and practical

The glasses are very functional and practical for trail running etc and with great sound you don't miss earbuds at all and can hear your surroundings. Stylish enough and seem durable so far.

Great sound

I received these glasses for Father's Day and am really torn. The sound is amazing however the fit could use some rework. I don't have a large head however they squeeze the side of my head to the point of a headache after an hour of wear.

Great Product

This is a great product excellent for activities where you want to listen to music and still be aware of your surroundings. One suggestion is too have lenes which provide magnification like reading glasses. That would expand your audience and helpful for persons requiring some magnification. As usual great Bose product

I bought these to test them out as possible gifts for family and friends. I did so before with the Bose Soundwear Companion and I liked those so much I purchased 7 sets! The Tempo is an excellent set of eye wear with the added bonus of being able to take a call and/or listen to music. They work well when driving in any of my cars or trucks. I call my mother and sister every day (mom has Dementia) and I have been using these in a noisy panel van and mom and my sister say I come through loud an...
