so if you guys saw a few weeks ago we did an unboxing of these the bows frames the totally new product category that I've never tried before they are sunglasses with speakers built-in that do a lot more than that so these are made a bunch of different scenarios I think you guys probably would and I've got some dots on them let's talk about the frames so your hundred 99 bucks didn't get you a pair of boasts frame come in two different sizes these are the also it's kind of more angular and then there's called the Rondo a little more circular I don't realize how tiny shrunk my head was these are the larger versions and even though they're bigger than my head is they still fit pretty comfortably I actually had surgery on my ears when I was a kid so I think generally tend to cause me pain if I'm wearing them for a long time these are having issues at all and I was surprised they're pretty lightweight considering electronics that are packed inside so it's a bose product you figure the sounds got to be good and I do want to give a shout-out to thank you to Bose for sponsoring this video these are unlike any other sort of sound headsets that I've ever worn there's no bone conducting technology with Bose did it was kind of neat they have speakers actually built into the frames that shoot the audio directly into your ear so once I got over kind of the weirdness of appearing to be a crazy person by talking myself and having conversations I got really used to what they can do the sound quality for me was about two separate things so how music sounded and then how phone calls sounded so on the music side it actually sounded really good then you have giant expectations coming from a product so small but the way the speakers are aligned interwar they set on your ear the audio really does go right and it sounds better at anything I ever tried that used like an older bone conducting technology a few caveats so if you are indoors and you have your audio at about mid volume people around you will be able to hear either your music or your conversation but when you go outside and there's ambient noise you turn the volume up almost all the way to full and people can't really hear you all the way around so at least bear that in mind if privacy is important to you so controlling the frames is pretty simple there's one button it'll work seamlessly with either iOS or Android pulling up Siri and Google assistant the button let you do a lot of controls for nd accepting phone calls you can control the songs you're listening to they did a pretty nice job with it you can obviously just pair these with Bluetooth as you would any other Bluetooth headset Bose recommends though that you set up the Bose Connect app either an iOS or Android gonna give you things like software updates and also let you sort of more easily control the volume I wish I could have controlled the volume from the headset themselves but I didn't mind having used my phone I got used to it pretty quickly I think I got sunglasses to look good and feel good and Bose didn't disappear to cut any corners when it comes to design and materials they feel really premium while still kind of being light the Altos here have more of an angular design which I kind of dig suppose I get about three and half hours of the music streaming battery life on the frames that's pretty close accurate I got just about three hours trying to charge the frames gonna take you about 2 hours from empty to full and the connector is a proprietary magnetic connector and it does attach easily and pretty strongly but I would have liked maybe USBC on here just about to carry another cable with me when I'm not about my sites not the best I would have liked if there was a prescription option I imagine that will hopefully be coming at some point also some sort of water resistance would have been nice to have here if you're kind of stuck out in the rain but if you don't want to go for a run and get a light sweat on you're not gonna have any sort of issues or if you go full dad mode and want to mow your lawn you're fine probably the biggest surprise that Bose frames it was actually the utility while driving if you drive an older car that maybe doesn't have Bluetooth or one of the people that drive with headphones in it's super unsafe so the Bose frames by design are perfect for you know the driving environment you can still hear the cars around you you could have phone calls it will teach your music or podcasts and still be safe and be aware of any sounds or horns honking you know to potentially avoid collision so pretty nice for that so those are the Bose frames mostly good some stuff I would have liked to seen change but for the most part they do exactly what both set out for them to do it's a new product category for Bose a new product category that I've ever tried but would you guys try something like this what's what's your use case would it be in the car would it be at home would it be just out and about let us know in the comments down below give video a thumbs up we appreciate it until next time John render you
