For those who already wear eyeglasses daily, adding audio is simply an added convenience. I never thought of owning them since I don't need to wear glasses, but I'm officially a convert after trying out a pair of audio sunglasses recently. If you're ready to try out your own pair, we've gone and rounded up the best audio glasses for iPhone owners.
High fashion appeal
My own personal favorite, Fauna's Fabula Audio Sunglasses, brings beautiful designs and a sleek profile. The transparent frames and slim arms have a fashionable, feminine feel. They fit great, and the audio is both clear and crisp as long as there's not too much loud ambient noise around you.
Cool design choices
Vue Lite was one of the first brands to release audio glasses in 2016, and since then, it has been busy designing many different and interesting styles to choose from. My favorite is this Lyra round-framed look.
Alexa approved
Amazon's Echo Frames will blend in seamlessly with the Alexa network for those who use Amazon's smart home technology in the home or office. Use them as you would use any Echo device, and those who use prescription lenses will enjoy the comfortable fit.
Best sound
Here are the audio glasses for audiophiles. Bose knows good sound, and you won't be disappointed with the sound produced by these sporty frames.
Built-in blue light filters
Razer offers these Anzu Smart Glasses with blue-light filtering lenses to help ease eye strain from long hours of staring at screens. There are several different shapes and lenses to choose from.
Versatile style
Bose's Tenor glasses come with the usual excellent sound quality we expect from Bose, and these squared-off frames will look great in both indoor and outdoor environments. Choose between several shades of sunglass lenses or get them fitted with your own prescription lenses.
Hear it in your bones
If you prefer bone-conduction headphones over traditional types, then VocalSkull's audio frames will be just the thing. These glasses use bone conduction technology to deliver sounds directly to your inner ear, as opposed to open-ear sound.
Best for outdoor sports
OhO offers a streamlined design that won't slip off easily during vigorous activity or outdoor sports. These are also the most affordable audio sunglasses on our list.
