RE: Bose frames

[Christopher Chaltain]

I have the Bose Frames Altos, and I just got the Tempos. I also have the Trekz 
Titaniums from Aftershokz.

The frames will be more stylish and give you better sound quality. They're a 
good option if you already want to wear sunglasses or want something that 
doesn't look like you have headphones on.

The Aftershokz will give you better battery life, although the battery life in 
the Tempos is supposed to be better than that in the Altos.

For me, if I'm going to grab something around the house to listen to a book or 
a podcast then I'll just grab the Aftershokz. I appreciate the better battery 
life, I find them comfortable, and I won't have to worry about knocking them 
into something.

If I'm going out and about then I'll grab the Tempos. I like to have the option 
of listening to something without everyone knowing I have headphones on. I'll 
also grab the Tempos if I want to listen to something like music or a movie 
where I want better sound quality.

IMHO, they both have their strengths and weaknesses, and I think it just comes 
down to how you'll be using them and which form factor you prefer.

RE: Another Bose Frames question

[Simon A Fogarty]

Yes the models released in 2020 use bose music,

The earlier alto and rondo models use bose connect.

Both models of app are very usable.
But honestly I barely use the app once I've paired the frames to my phone,
Everything I need is on the frames themselves.

If anything to me is lacking in them is 
The ability to say hey siri without having to tap the frame first.

RE: Bose frames

[Simon A Fogarty]

Yes ed but note that the alto and rondo are the older style / format of the 
frames,

They now have the tenor for men
Seprano for women 
And the tempos for sports 
And these frames are the new models released in 2020 
More costly but still well worth the money.

Ed,
I don't have a pair of these but I have played with some that a couple of 
friends had and yes, I wear behind the ear hearing aids and yes they work 
really well with them.  I was very surprised as to how well I could hear 
them as well as things going on around me with my hearing aids.

Hi,
Do these headphones have an app for adjusting settings? If so, is it completely 
accessible for VoiceOver users?

Thanks.

Re: Bose frames

[Beverly Wieland]

QVC (www.qvc.com) offers them for the sprices just quoted.  However they 
offer five easy pays so that you can pay smaller amounts over a 5-month 
period, interest free.  The price does not include shipping.  The tempos, 
for example, are $49.80 a month if you choose this option.

I have had the altos, and I bought the tempos as well. They are definitely more 
pricy, but they are worth it. They have all of the microphones and

Re: Another Bose Frames question

[CHELA Robles]

It’s called the music app I think it’s the music Bose connect app or something 
you want to look for it but it’s for the Bose frames tempo at least that’s what 
I have I have to look at what it’s really called but there is an app and it’s 
accessible.

Re: Bose frames

[CHELA Robles]

Well I’m fully blind and I actually like the best frames it’s just based on 
personal preference really honestly in anything in life really when it comes to 
products I don’t like putting things in my ears. And I actually like the 
sunglasses much better. I like the fact that they have polarized lenses 
polarized lenses help my eyes since I have some issues with my eyes as well I 
have had an issue with them for a year now. So these post frames are really 
helping me out. I also use them for phone calls in with services like be my 
eyes and Ira.

When the call comes in 
You should only need to press the little button on the right arm of the frames 
and it should answer the call for you.

RE: Bose frames

[Simon A Fogarty]

The frames don't block your ears,

The speakers are in the arms of the glasses and sit just above the ears opening 
but leaves them completely open,


And the microphone in the bose frames seemingly pretty good I use my frames for 
making phone calls 
All the time.

I wear tinted glasses when out and about sometimes to keep the wind and or dust 
out of my eyes and being blind, I and I'm guessing others may have the same 
experience where you get tired of keeping your eyes open and you're just more 
comfortable sometimes with your eyes closed depending on the situation or 
circumstance and don’t' want to be bothered with questions on whether you're 
awake or if something's wrong etc.
While I'm mildly intrigued with these Bose frames, I too prefer the Aftershokz 
concept and keeping my ears open and unobstructed. That and I've got a big 
noggin. So the frames would probably be a tight fit for me anyway.

They are sunglasses which have speakers and microphones built into the arms or 
whatever you call these things which go from the frame around the lenses to 
your ear.
Personally I wouldn't be interested simply because I am completely blind and I 
don't see the need for wearing glasses, I'd much rather use the Aftershokz if I 
want audio which doesn't cover my ears.

RE: Bose frames

[Simon A Fogarty]

Yeah I have the tenors and tempos and either way they are great.

 As for being totally blind,
Yeah I am and have no issue with wearing sunglasses 
 
And to me the after shockz don't have the same quality of sound as the frames 
have,

But then bose make great sound systems.

Hi,

I have had the altos, and I bought the tempos as well. They are definitely more 
pricy, but they are worth it. They have all of the microphones and 
multi-directional censor. They are so awesome. I also tried someone else's 
after shocks, and I hands down like my frames better. I am also a totally blind 
person.

Re: Bose frames

[Robert Doc Wright]

that is one side I have not figured out. I believe it is possibly the 
bluetooth that causes the problem. I hear the tone in the frames but 
sometimes when I answer the call switches back to the phones. I have heard 
others talk about the same thing happening with any of their bluethoot 
speakers.

Since I have no vision, not even light perception, the lenses are not

The Tempo seems to be highly recommended by list members.  However I 
noticed that the older alto has two features not mentioned in any of the 
newer models:

Integrated microphone
Multi-directional motion sensor

Do the newer models have microphones for taking calls or giving commands 
to the phone?
What is the advantage of a multidirectional motion sensor, either in

I hope someone has tried the alto and knows what this does.

Re: Bose frames

[Mickey Quenzer]

If you want sound quality for music or television kind of stuff then the bus 
frames are better if you just want information about your surroundings in track 
loud noise areas then the aftershocks are probably a good option. I don’t know 
about either since I haven’t paid had them but that’s my understanding from 
talking to different people.

RE: Bose frames

[Cristobal Muñoz]

I wear tinted glasses when out and about sometimes to keep the wind and or dust 
out of my eyes and being blind, I and I'm guessing others may have the same 
experience where you get tired of keeping your eyes open and you're just more 
comfortable sometimes with your eyes closed depending on the situation or 
circumstance and don’t' want to be bothered with questions on whether you're 
awake or if something's wrong etc.
While I'm mildly intrigued with these Bose frames, I too prefer the Aftershokz 
concept and keeping my ears open and unobstructed. That and I've got a big 
noggin. So the frames would probably be a tight fit for me anyway.

Personally I wouldn't be interested simply because I am completely blind and I 
don't see the need for wearing glasses, I'd much rather use the Aftershokz if I 
want audio which doesn't cover my ears.

Re: Bose frames

[Jennie Facer]

Hi,

I have had the altos, and I bought the tempos as well. They are definitely more 
pricy, but they are worth it. They have all of the microphones and 
multi-directional censor. They are so awesome. I also tried someone else's 
after shocks, and I hands down like my frames better. I am also a totally blind 
person.

Re: Bose frames

[CHELA Robles]

You will definitely benefit greatly with Soundscape with the Bose frames tempo. 
It’s amazing. I got lucky apparently because I had a $300 gift card and I ended 
up getting them with the gift card. They come with three sets of nose pads that 
are easy to install if the pair that he’s already put on doesn’t fit for you 
then you can try the other two pair the ones that are already installed when 
the Bose frames comes is the number two which fits most people but I ended up 
taking the smaller of the other two pairs that were in a bag because that’s 
what fits me. They feel like they are made of some form of silicone or 
rubberized type of material. They’re easy to get on and easy to get off if you 
want to experiment as well. I would caution you to put them in a special place 
if you change your mind about changing your nose piece size.

 The Tempo seems to be highly recommended by list members.  However I 
 noticed that the older alto has two features not mentioned in any of the

 Integrated microphone
 Multi-directional motion sensor
 
 Do the newer models have microphones for taking calls or giving commands

You have to put your Plantronics earpiece into pairing mode. My Voyager Edge 
has a little button on the boom which when I press it can take basic voice 
commands and I just say "pair" or "pairing mode', but ultimately you have to 
know which model it is and you could then Google how to put your particular

recommend people check on Applevis in case people have found even more suitable 
options. This one seems to have a good set of tools for keeping track of 
medication. Hope it helps.

RE: Bose frames

[Simon A Fogarty]

In my book better quality sound and feel to them.

Bose are speaker / sound system builders 
 After shockz are a different product intirely 

I have both the tenor and tempo frames and the tempos have a better battery 
life than the tenors but the sound is just as good and with taps on the side of 
the arm or slide your finger on the right arm you get some touch controls.

They also give you a form of surround sound which the after shockz don't give 
you.
Plus the frames let you watch tv or movies as well as listen to gps directions 
I use them with google maps 

Without issues,they may cost more but they are well worth the price you pay.
