Bose Alto Large, Alto Small and Rondo Review

This post is sponsored by Best Buy. All opinions are my own.

Sitting on a ship’s tender, I was listening to the new mix that my daughter and I had put together… Funky Christmas. Sitting in the Bahamas, I was listening to a Christmas Mix on my new Bose Alto Large Sunglasses. Yes, I was listening to music through my sunglasses.

Bose Alto Large, Alto Small and Rondo Review

The Bose Alto Large, Alto Small and Rondo are the only Sunglasses on the market with a Soundtrack. They are simply incredible!

The first audio sunglasses with built-in Bose speakers for a completely immersive audio experience unlike anything that you have ever experienced. It’s a revolutionary personal audio experience closely hidden inside two classic designs, each enriched with premium accents and materials.

You can play music, take cell calls, and enjoy hanging out in the sun listening to your favorite tunes and they have UVA/UVB protection. 

Here are some of the specs:

Bose Frames Alto Large feature a classic angular shape, commanding lenses with a larger fit and immersive sound. Lens Width: 52mm/2in | Bridge Width: 18mm/0.7in | Full Frame Width: 148mm/5.8in | Bow Length: 162mm/6.4in

The quality of sound is just great! I had them turned all the way up and my wife and the people around me couldn’t hear the music. The clarity is awesome and I also synced them with my Amazon Alexa.
