Yes. Bose Frames Tempo are IPX4 water-resistant sport sunglasses. They’re protected against sweat and splashes of water.

Yes. Bose Frames are 99% UVA/UVB protected.

Yes. Bose Frames Tempo come with polarized lenses. Additional lenses are also available (including longer lenses for more coverage) and can be easily replaced on your own.

Yes. Bose Frames Tempo is tested and approved for prescription lenses (in both the U.S. and internationally). Some limitations may apply.

In typical usage, the Bose Frames Tempo battery lasts up to 8 hours of streaming music playback. Battery performance varies with the content played and volume at which it is played.

The right temple houses the touch interface for volume control. You can slide your finger forward and back to adjust volume up and down.

Bose sunglasses support industry-standard Bluetooth A2DP and Bluetooth HFP for phone calls.

No. The wireless connection for Bose Frames is Bluetooth only.

The Bluetooth connection for Bose Frames Tempo is capable of stable operation at up to 30 ft (9 m). Performance can be affected by obstacles such as walls or metal, interference from Wi-Fi or other wireless devices, and device manufacturers’ Bluetooth implementations.

Bose Frames can be connected to one device at a time.

Bose Frames also keep track of the last eight devices to have paired and connected with them, dropping the least recently used when a new one is paired.

When in Bluetooth mode, Bose Frames search for and connect to the most recently connected active Bluetooth enabled device. If that device is unavailable, Bose Frames will attempt the next most recently connected device.

If you wish to connect to another device, you should hold the button for 3 seconds until you hear, “Ready to connect,” and the status light slowly blinks blue.

Since Bose Frames use Bluetooth connectivity, you can access any app that’s on your mobile device. Some examples include:

Music services like Spotify® and Apple Music
Voice communication apps like Skype and WhatsApp
Navigation apps like Google Maps or Waze

Yes. A call can be answered and ended by pressing the multi-function button once.

When listening to music and audiobooks, the multi-function button allows for play (single press), pause (single press), track forward (double press), and track backward (triple press).

When there is an incoming call, pressing the multi-function button once will answer the call and double pressing will reject the call. During an active call, pressing the button will end the call.

The button is also used to power off Bose Frames. Simply press and hold the button until you hear the power off tone, then let go to turn off the device.

Double-tap on the right temple of the sunglasses to access Siri on an iOS device or the Google Assistant on an Android device.
