Thanks for this very objective review. I've the Altos but it broke after almost a year of use, luckily Bose added 3 more months to my warranty and I'm still entitles to a brand-new replacement (yes, brand new replacements). After a couple of weeks, I just got a message saying that they ran out of stock for the Altos but I can choose another style instead, icluding the Gen 2 models. So here I am, looking at reviews for the Tenors, coz it seems like my best choice. Stylistically, I love the Altos coz it looks more expensive and premium with the gold button and accents that doesnt seem to fade, even when I use it for running and working out. These Tenors look like the cheap audio sunglasses from Wish.
I think some of the sound choices they make have to do with maximizing battery life. Maybe not but I felt the same with the Razer Anzu glasses also. These are better, though and this was a great review. These are now $125 US and are a fantastic value.
Headphones. Headphones. Headphones. I hate people that carry those Bluetooth speakers 🔊or playing music on their phones. This is a no for me. Great Review.
IMO the Alto's have a much better style and shape. The Tenor's obviously have better sound quality but Im not a fan of the shiny frame and the weird look. Wish they made the Alto style with the Tenor quality.
Olá! Acabei de comprar o produto e o pouco que usei posso concordar com você 100%. Obrigado pelas dicas de controle do botão, pois não conhecia. Baixei o app e já está pedindo para criar uma conta. Valeu! Abraços.
i wouldn,t pay no more than $100:00 for them considering the audio and how they were built suprisingly most tech wearables will eventually lower in price as with most electronic devices being a con$umer hit or miss. so don,t feel too bad about it and enjoy them.
think of them as sunglasses primarily with added speakers if needed. i have the v1 and love them as they fit my head better than a pair of ray-bans. if you've ever use bone conduction earphones like aftershokz they sound just like that
It's funny cause I was saying the opposite about polarization. It's 2022, all sunglasses should be polarized! (except for pilots) Once you experience polarized sunglasses, which removes the blinding glare off everything while driving, you can never go back to non-polarized glasses. Most phones are designed to work with polarized glasses anyway, so that shouldn't be a big issue.
LCD displays (and OLED displays that have polarising filters) look distorted through polarised sunglasses. They will either be black when held either vertically or horizontally, depending on how the manufacturer aligned the panel, or they will have a rainbow-like distortion and one eye can look different to the other and feel weird. So polarised sunglasses still distort the appearance of a lot of phones, camera displays, bicycle computers, in-car head up displays, portable lossless audio players, field monitors etc. Some of the latest phones have solved this (for some sunglasses but not all) but older phones and most displays on other devices still get screwed up by these sunglasses, unfortunately.

I have the tenors and im very happy with this piece, i totally recommend this piece. Bose kicked ass ....!!!
“Loud isn’t my thing”….haha no kidding. I did like the thoroughness and editing of this video. Nicely done.
Thanks
I have had the first generation and now the Tenors, they are ok. I wish they made them in matte black.
This dude makes great honest reviews
High quality reviews! Can’t wait for more!
That first song during base test is an absolute CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!!! My mann.
A very honest and balanced review.
Thank you.
You can get clear hd lenses on amazon $20
Great review. If you think about a mature man, over 6 feet tall and 240 + lbs, these are perfect in terms of fit and style.
Another nice vid. Great balance of info, facts and humor.
Big ups.
nah
I really like how you review a device. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for your feedback!

Yeah they do look a bit cheaply and plasticy. They sound great though.

you have the NPR radio voice 👍
I agree it sound like it play in your head but I hate when everybody around me can hear the music it's a bit weird felling so I keep audio low
“Look like a moron going to a daft punk concert” hahahaha. Literally made me laugh out loud
I hope they end up making these sleeker as the technology gets better. They should do a collab with oakley
Genuine review
Great review! Instant like.
Nice review.
Thanks for this review! Are you Irish or Canadian? Or both?
I didnt know that about polarized lenses, cheers
what is this technology called?
I believe you can get these sort of headphones in other formats than sunglasses.
The voice is really highlight here. Damn boy are u so good to hear!
Thank you.
Bro u sound kinda weird hope u turn to be straight son
9:05 killed the deal for me
I know I have a reason to listen to podcasts and maybe even subscribe to audiobooks
Thank you for the review. If you already had the original Bose Frames ALTO, would you also buy these? Would it worth the upgrade? Thanks. 😊
I didn't have the originals, sorry.
Headphones. Headphones. Headphones. I hate people that carry those Bluetooth speakers 🔊or playing music on their phones. This is a no for me. Great Review.
Thanks. I hear you. I'm not into making strangers listen to my music.
Would love to know how you think these v2 Bose sunglasses compare to the v1 sunglasses. (Alto)
I haven't tried the V1. Sorry.
IMO the Alto's have a much better style and shape. The Tenor's obviously have better sound quality but Im not a fan of the shiny frame and the weird look. Wish they made the Alto style with the Tenor quality.
Yes I feel similarly.
GRACIAS
Está bien
These are good for cycling.

You are tripping bro you look absolutely fine 😂
How do you pause and play music using the buttons on them?
The multi-use button pauses and plays with a single press.
Good even voice to follow.
Bose frames work best with organ and orchestral music
I think that's a fair opinion.
It uses bone conduction technology ?
No, it just has speakers in the arms.
They call it open ear audio or something like that. It’s very similar though
😂
Thanks for this honest review
I have only one question: WHY?
Because turtles.
😂 👍 great review
think of them as sunglasses primarily with added speakers if needed. i have the v1 and love them as they fit my head better than a pair of ray-bans.
if you've ever use bone conduction earphones like aftershokz they sound just like that
Seem like he doesn’t like the sunglasses
I look like a moron haha :P
This is not worth that price tag
Why are you whispering
Do you know what "whispering" actually means?
Too big for asia people..
Are you calling Europeans "fat pigs? Cuz that's what you're implying..
Asians have tiny reproductive organs.
Wow. I fell asleep listening to this review. Looking elsewhere.
And yet you stayed awake just long enough to write something mean to someone you don't know and who has never done you harm.
terrible review

Rubbish
Maybe we need Tesla glasses
Well everybody knows bose is way too expensive for what they make.
