I used these Bose frames for a month or so. I wear glasses so I thought I would fit my power glasses into this frame which would also work as bluetooth headphone to listen talkback voice. However there are some serious issues in these frames. Firstly, its fit, I tried both small and medium sizes, but unfortunately none of them fitted on my face as the width of the glasses is too wide. It gives a look like sunglasses. They dont look natural glasses as the tamples are also oversized as they conceal speakers in them. Secondly, the battery quality, it is miserable. It stays only for few hours with normal use. Its poor battery defeats the purpose of wearing these odd looking glasses. Third, its charging cable is not normal micro USB, it has special magnetic cable which has some serious issue. I couldn't charge my Bose frame more than 50% several times. Fourth, its price point. It comes in the price range of more than 21,000 INR. Therefore I wouldn't recommend purchasing these frames looking its price point and battery quality and odd design. If you want to purchase a good quality headset for the purpose of presentation without covering your ears, go for Aftershokz Trekz Air. They are available in the price range of 12k and are durable as wel.
