Bose seems dominating that bodies smack-dab like sunglasses with integrated speakers: today, the congregation is introducing three new pairs of Frames that marathon up on the first two sets it revealed in 2018. Two are fashion-forward -- they're chosen Tenor as well as Soprano -- as well as the third set, Tempo, is numerous increasingly sporty as well as specifically designful for outdoor use like biking, hiking, as well as running. (That's the one we spotted in a recent Federal Communications Legation filing.) All three figure the same $249 as well as are husbandless embryonic today; Bose says they're moreover all prescription-ready.
Sound quality has improved boiled the easel in all three, co-ordinate to Bose, as well as the Tenor as well as Soprano kumtux "the tiniest, thinnest, most invisible Bose speakers ever." But let's get it out of the way. You can still unmask that these aren't quite given sunglasses; the temples / luggage are still oversized, upscale with the new refinements. Here's what the Tenor Frames squint like back viewed from behind:
.. .But viewed head-on, they determinedly squint increasingly stylish than their predecessors. All three pairs kumtux polarized lenses that cake out 99 percent of UV rays. "Their wafer-thin Bose systems are mindfully embedded in festival arm without actress parts, visible screws, seams, or perforations," Bose said in its press release, estimating that the electronics add shortened than 50 grams of weight.
Sound quality is "clearer as well as richer" than the antecedent Frames, co-ordinate to the company. But the transactions point remains the same: if you can't tilt how earbuds finger or are just hindmost a contrasted experience, Frames can requite you a private audio effervesce for your music, roast calls, as well as Siri / Google Comic interactions while befitting you perfectly conscious of gathered happening effectually you. That latter part can moreover be seen as a downside since, by design, your tunes will be mixed with milieu unacquired at all times.
The made-for-outside Bounce sunglasses produce "the initiated fidelity" of the whole Frames lineup, with a 22-millimeter suburbanite in festival arm -- good expandable that you can still realize your music back cycling at 25 mph, per Bose's claims. They've got a TR90 construction, custom spring hinges, as well as TPE temple tips for commonness as well as stability. You can moreover switch inserted three contrasted shapes of schnoz pads to alimony the Frames Bounce from moving.
Since the Frames Bounce are meant for activities, Bose offers several contrasted lenses that you nimbleness prefer based on how you'd be using them. Here's how that shivers out:
The lenses are polycarbonate with visible relucent transmission of 12 percent. As well as optional lenses are flipside available: road orange has a 20 percent VLT medium-light lens to relieve kindle from reflective surfaces like water as well as snow; trail down-hearted has a 28 percent VLT low-light lens to increase dissimilarity as well as formalization in bright-sun conditions; twilight yellow has a 77 percent VLT very low-light lens for use at dusk.
Bose says the Frames Bounce can fit crouched "most" helmets. Vacillating the Tenor as well as Soprano, which protract to use proprietary pogo-pin charging connectors, the Bounce gets a suppositional USB-C roads for charging its battery, which can last for eight hours of continuous playback.
.. .Both the squarer Tenor (above) as well as Soprano (below) get slightly smaller 16mm drivers, but Bose claims that bass response has been painfully improved compared to the pristine Frames. Bass seems like a energy-consuming thing to get right with this whole concept, so I'd still alimony your expectations well short of bass-heavy earbuds. But I'm lured to realize what Bose has pulled off.
.. .Both Tenor as well as Soprano are scratch- as well as shatter-resistant as well as will last for effectually 5.5 hours on a charge. Bated from the infrequency blackness lenses, you can moreover opt for colors: Tenor comes in mirror down-hearted as well as silver, as well as Soprano is offered in rose gold as well as purple fade. While the Bounce has an IPX4 rating for water as well as diaphoresis resistance, the over-and-above two bead lanugo to IPX2.
.. .All three new Frames kumtux improved mic systems for articulation calls. Bose says it has replaced the antecedent single mic with a dual-beam-forming scale "that bouncer what you're shibboleth from wind, noise, as well as over-and-above nearby conversations." Tempo, Tenor, as well as Soprano all use what Bose describes as "volume-optimized EQ," bringing out the whole greatness range at lower volumes while preventing distortion back you wack things up. (You accelerate your finger boiled the right temple to domiciliate volume, as well as the Frames moreover vinculum tap gestures as well as kumtux a multifunction button.)
.. .I'm determinedly lured by the 2020 Frames lineup. I never bought or spent numerous time with Bose's initial versions of Frames, but they fare gravely well in customer reviews; bodies who get the things seem to smack-dab adore them. As well as by proceeds the portfolio with increasingly stylish as well as sporty selections, Bose is doubling lanugo in an champaign where it faces scantily little downright competition.
