Why not light tint polar. Polarchromic Copper provides increased color definition and medium contrast while reducing reflected glare from water, sand, or pavement. An exceptional general purpose Polarchromic lens tint that automatically darkens to adapt your vision in bright conditions.
Thank you Cherlynn, you're one of the only I've seen to say wait for gen 2. I feel this is true for most products, but especially Bose, they're really good at listening to feedback and improving on their 1st outing.
I like the concept, the only thing that would put me off buying it there would be the battery life. My Bose earbuds and noise cancelling headphones have eight hours and 12 hour battery life. I don’t see why they can’t implement that into the Bose frames. I would like to see the navigation a r system though. Perhaps that might be good for blind people like me in the future.
is there any information in the second generation model, like if they are working on them now and how long until they come out? I am very interested in buying those compared to this 1st generation Bose Frames. please let me know :)
Hello I looked for the optishot gravis sunglasses that was compared with in battery hours in the video and I couldn’t find any product with that name, could you please state the correct name or a link to the longer battery life sunglasses in the 6:02 minute in the video? Thank you so much in advance.
TLDR; 8/10 for volume. You can hear surroundings very well. 4/10 for bass. 8/10 for music quality. In very loud situations it has to be at 65+ or you wont hear much, but around 80% people around you can hear your music. In quiet/semi quiet areas, these are a godsend. You can hear your music suprisingly clearly and bass actually exists. At the same time, I can hear people around me with ease, it really depends on what I want to focus on..
At $200 this is not a bad choice if you have vision insurance. In my case for example, with VSP, I can get up to $200 credit for frames every other year which would make these glasses free. I wish the quality was better though. I hope they’ll come out with new styles this year as this is the year I get the credit.
@@MaximusTheChosenOne Any frame up to $200 is covered. It does not dictate what frames you get as long as they pay your optometrist up to $200. Our insurance also covers basic lenses with transition. Any other upgrades to the lenses are not.
I dont know.10 years on and i still get annoyed when my phone screen rotates when i didnt mean it to. Accidental nods and shakes would probably drive me up the wall. And wireless headphone batteries are still not good enough. Very interesting tech and a cool take on AR though.
Need a clear lens Version, I can see they wouldn’t want to make them though because dumb office type folks would become distracted, but I think they should make them.
Kind of drives me crazy when I hear people complain about the base on these and then compare them to another headset with decent base Jay to them complain about the vibration of the competitor. You can't have good base without vibration. They kind of go hand and hand.
Try wearing the "round the back" headphones *_UNDER_* your hair, unless you're a werewolf and your hair also comes from the back of your neck at the same length as from your head :-P
I just received the Alto glasses. Im impressed with the technology but I'm going to return because they are too unreliable and will not stay connected to my device much like the BOSE QC earbuds
You need to request "Asian Fit" glasses. Makes a big difference for comfort. Many times, not available, but most global brands or brands with distribution in Asia have Asian fit.
What gen 2 needs: touch controls, longer battery life, better bass, and an option for clear lenses.
des8893 bass isn't needed. slimmer design and better battery would be better though.
And recharge in the case
Clear lenses would be awesome. Listening to music in class
@@arjunyeleshwarapu I got my prescription put in mine, its awesome!
I agree with everything you just said.
Me: "Puts on bose frames"
Friend: Where ya goin fam?
Me: Nah, listening some music lmao
X'D LITERALLY HAPPENED TO ME XD !!
LMFAOO 💀
@Rene Abel stfu bot
Im in the military so this would be great to listen while i walk around outside.
Thats why i got mine
Literally the same reason lmao
True!! SF will leave me alone
Thank you guys for you service!
@@noahbauserman1768 What have they done?
that intro is unnecessarily tacky, there were many better ways of saying that
it amazes me how some people manage to sneak in references everywhere..
Yeah I really didn't like that intro...if you want to go with that analogy, just say "they fucked" and don't be so weird about it...
actually, i don’t think the reference was necessary at all. she could’ve just said “they combined sunglasses and headphones”
@@DeepCubed oh I agree completely, or "hybrid mashup between glasses and headphones" I would've said...I understand why, "sex sells" so they say...but not when it's awkward and forced like that...oof
Ikr... She said "intercourse" like she was embarrassed or uncomfortable saying such a normal human function
She should have just said “had a baby.”

"I wear my sunglasses at night so i can so i can hear my mp3s and tune you out"
Did lose do the firmware update with all the features you mentioned in your video?Thankyou!
You actually can adjust the volume remotely by turning your head left or right while pressing the button.
Thank you Cherlynn, you're one of the only I've seen to say wait for gen 2. I feel this is true for most products, but especially Bose, they're really good at listening to feedback and improving on their 1st outing.
Dear Bose. Take your sleep buds and make them truly wireless earbuds that can play music and use assistants. Then you will have my money
I wear my sunglasses at night

I heard of google glasses but how tf have I not heard of these or even the Ray ban stories!
How does the audio in these compare to rayban stories and echo 2
is there any information in the second generation model, like if they are working on them now and how long until they come out? I am very interested in buying those compared to this 1st generation Bose Frames.
please let me know :)

I finally tried it in person. It’s awesome
Yuri Grigsby on a scale of 1-10 how loud is the music for you? And can you hear the surroundings well?
TLDR; 8/10 for volume. You can hear surroundings very well. 4/10 for bass. 8/10 for music quality.

Yuri Grigsby thanks for this 💯 I’m practically sold on these but I wish they could change the lense to prescription lenses 😔
@@Chappati You can. I change the lens to prescription lenses.
That Asian Don you can but it voids warranty
Please god let them make a safety glasses version

There’s no way this is covred

is it possible to get rid of the original glasses and put prescribed ones instead? if then I would really like to buy one!
Yes it is possible
That intro was cringy 😓
Most of this was cringe....
Gonna wait till this tech gets better
If you install the update, you can change volume from the Frames themselves.
why is she still here? the only plausible reason: her dad is a shareholder of Engadget.
She pretty much never satisfied with anything new devices comes out.
And she's too big
She comes across as a jaded asshole
do these scratch quick?
Better push volume buttons of your phone than use the screen slider. Its more convenient and you can do it directly from your pocket
This is a really nice concept give some time and its going to be a great gadget.
Im thinking the same thing. This coukd actually take off.
The intro was so cringe I had to close the review
It was kinda cringeworthy, but it’s not that bad.
Why don't they make light sensitive lens?
You can buy Bose lenses that are polarised and UV rated for around $50 AUD
Can you tel me how much it ?!
Can I put my prescription lenses on them
Do you think can I do?
This girl is annoying made me not want to watch the entire review
Same
:(
well that's your fault and problem, not hers.
I actually think concern about headphones messing up one's hair is fairly common.
Can’t see any highs? Can’t see any lows? It must be a what?
I'd buy these but in eye glasses if they were available like that
You can. You go to the eye doctor and switch them out for regular glasses or transitions.
I think you can get polarised ones and control the volume on them now.
I dont know.10 years on and i still get annoyed when my phone screen rotates when i didnt mean it to.
Accidental nods and shakes would probably drive me up the wall. And wireless headphone batteries are still not good enough.
Very interesting tech and a cool take on AR though.
Can't wait until they release prescription lenses. Gonna be working to some good music like a ninja!
You can add prescription lenses to them. I have prescription transition lenses on mine
same, I change the lens too. And I used progressive lenses
Need these in safety glass
Best to use in school in class
Need a clear lens Version, I can see they wouldn’t want to make them though because dumb office type folks would become distracted, but I think they should make them.
I think you can replace the lenses with prescription lenses.
That was a wonderful and very informative review of these Bose glasses. Thank you very much. 😊
anyone know the song in the bose ad for soundtrack sunglasses. the ad with the lady dressed in red as the thumbnail?
How about medicated BOSE FRAMES
My man “baby driver” needs em
3 hours full charge? That sucks
Sounds really good for blind people
That’s why I’m thinking about getting these
@@flyingblind5677 :(
Nice review, but I would not expect many people would want this product.
I read they're coming out with a pie-face model, soon.
Kind of drives me crazy when I hear people complain about the base on these and then compare them to another headset with decent base Jay to them complain about the vibration of the competitor. You can't have good base without vibration. They kind of go hand and hand.
Damn some of you are micro managing this video... over good video! Do your thing girl 👏
Just bought mine today and I love it
Can people around you hear the music as well?
@@paintmemoria7641 no, depends if you’re blasting the music but normally they do not bleed into others
5:12 Have you tried, like, under your hair? LOL.
Non Glasses people: $200 for glasses is expensive
Glasses people: $200 and it does stuff nice
Dose the lens can be changed?
The man The man yes, check out the Bose Frames support video
People not knowing your glasses are connected to your phone will think you're a crazy person talking to your imaginary friend
Hope they make a clear lens
Ray-Ban where are your versions?
I mean its pretty obvious that construction is gonna take over
Better other colors like blue and yellow among others.Bose quality is rly tops
She's the epitome of annoyance.
Eesh, I thought she was great.
You are the epitome of annoying.
@@alienorbiter What are you, 8? 😂
@@sh4unity204 You call him 8, but have made the same lame sexist joke before him. u dumb?
Omg...i can imagine a teenager cheating with this...listening to their pre recorded audio while taking a test...or something
I could be wrong.
Yelitza Montanez bruh shhhhhhhh..... i tried it once but its really scary tho
How to power off these glasses
Put them upside down for 2 seconds
She didn’t press the button and turn her head. It’s a gesture control.
Oakley Thumps do a great job
Bose should consider transition lenses :-)
alqumaro dude heck yes!!
just change the lens.
2:11 "Rub me the wrong way " 🙄🤔
I have them I love them
Edith?
Needs way more battery life
They need to be transitioned so I can use them in size without looking like an idiot
Airpods + Transparency mode 😌
The intro sucks, also polarised lenses are coming out soon. My source: a conversation with a Bose London employee :)
I was about to buy these but I guess not now.
Heard these advertised on my podcast today. Just had to research it. Looks like a NO for me
$200 are actually average for shades
Didn't wanna mess up that 90's hairstyle....
I like the idea but love my designer shades so Issa nah.
Its great for bike riders
Try wearing the "round the back" headphones *_UNDER_* your hair, unless you're a werewolf and your hair also comes from the back of your neck at the same length as from your head :-P
Just get a cheap pair of shades on amazon and earbuds and cut off one side
Honest review though
these Were dope At bestbuy 😎👌✨ good 4 $hopping
Good for school 👍
Great review. I love techno gadgets but personally have no use for these. I do understand the appeal however.
3 hours!?! Woah that’s poor battery life!
Michael Jackson would’ve love these😂😂
He really would 😂😂
luxotica will be coming with something like this lol
Hey Siri set the volume to 50%.
Hey Siri, next song.
Hey Siri, stop music.
Why not use that?
Junk. Won't wear them in a car. Won't hear them on a plane. Won't wear them at the gym. Why bother? Stick with headphones.
+1 thing to charge every day, huh?
Incredible gadgets, beautiful hostess!!

@@CASTLEG So I just want to listen music what do I do? Put on glasses?

This video is too long guys!!

Average glasses from and audio company and bad audio...just a mediocre everything...what's the point? just wear RayBans and put buds in...
