Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass is available at Mascom International for KSh 3,800, pairing UV400 lenses with dual 15.3mm stereo speakers and Bluetooth 5.2. The stock is brand new and sealed, in Black, and comes with a 12-month warranty. Porodo rates the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass for 4 hours of playback from two 90mAh batteries, and the magnetic cable refills them in 1.5 hours. Calls come through the frame as well, so you can answer without digging the phone out of a bag. Walk into our shop in Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD to see a pair.
Designed for university students, mobile gamers on the move and young professionals, the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass handles music, podcasts and quick calls during the hours you spend outdoors. Many buyers own sunglasses and earbuds separately, then forget one of them at home. This frame merges both jobs into one item that lives on your face. The UV400 lenses block harmful ultraviolet light on a sunny walk across the University of Nairobi campus or a Saturday at Uhuru Park. Its larger 15.3mm drivers give a fuller sound than the smaller drivers found in many audio frames.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell no-name audio sunglasses with no receipt, Mascom International sells the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass with a written 12-month warranty and a physical shop you can return to. It costs KSh 1,700 less than the Porodo Silenza Polarized Smart Glasses and KSh 500 more than the Porodo Optix BT 5.3 Audio Sunglasses. Buyers throughout Kenya report that the quick 1.5-hour recharge suits stop-start days. Visit the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass display at the store, or order on WhatsApp and pay when it arrives.
Common Questions About the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass
What is the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass price in Kenya?
Mascom International in Nairobi sells the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass for KSh 3,800, factory sealed and finished in Black. The price includes the magnetic charging cable, a 12-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya. It sits KSh 1,700 below the Porodo Silenza Polarized Smart Glasses and KSh 500 above the Porodo Optix BT 5.3 Audio Sunglasses, so it lands in the middle of this Porodo trio for both price and features. Come to the shop and compare all three side by side before you decide.
Is the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass a better buy than the Porodo Optix BT 5.3 Audio Sunglasses?
The Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass wins on speakers and recharge speed, while the Porodo Optix BT 5.3 Audio Sunglasses win on battery life and price. Porodo lists 15.3mm stereo drivers on the Tivora and a 1.5-hour charge, against 2 hours on the Optix. The Optix answers with 6 hours of playback, 110 hours of standby and Bluetooth 5.3, for KSh 500 less. Pick the Tivora if sound comes first, and the Optix if you need longer listening between charges.
Can I keep the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass charged during KPLC blackouts?
Yes, the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass charges from a 5V 500mA USB source, so almost any power bank or laptop port can refill it when the mains go off. A full charge takes about 1.5 hours through the magnetic cable. Because the draw is so low, even a small power bank can refill the glasses several times. That makes the Tivora easy to keep running in towns like Kisumu or Nakuru, where outages sometimes stretch through an evening.
Who is the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass right for, and who should look elsewhere?
The Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass suits students, casual listeners and anyone who wants fuller sound in sunglasses for a few hours at a time. Look elsewhere if you need audio for a whole working day, because 4 hours of playback will run out before evening. The Porodo Silenza Polarized Smart Glasses suit that buyer, with 8 hours of music. Anyone who needs serious noise blocking on long flights will also be happier with closed headphones.
Are the dual 15.3mm speakers on the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass loud enough for a matatu ride?
The Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass uses two 15.3mm stereo speakers, which Porodo lists as larger than the drivers on many audio frames. On a quiet street, podcasts and calls come through clearly. A matatu with loud music and engine noise is a harder test, since open-ear speakers do not seal out sound. Push the volume up for short rides, but expect earbuds to do better in noisy vehicles and busy markets like Gikomba.
What does UV400 mean on the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass?
UV400 means the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass lenses block ultraviolet light with wavelengths up to 400 nanometres, which covers UVA and UVB rays. Those rays strain and damage eyes over time, especially at midday near the equator. UV400 is a protection standard, not the same as polarization, so the Tivora shields your eyes from ultraviolet light but does not remove glare reflected off water or car glass the way polarized lenses do. Drivers who mainly fight windscreen glare should look at the polarized Silenza instead.
Can I take Zoom or Teams calls on the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass?
The Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass supports hands-free calls over Bluetooth 5.2, so it works for Zoom, Teams, WhatsApp and normal phone calls. Your phone or laptop treats it like any Bluetooth headset with a microphone. Porodo does not publish microphone details, so test call quality in your usual workspace before long meetings. With a 4-hour battery, plan to recharge between a morning of calls and an afternoon of meetings.
How quickly does the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass recharge?
The Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass goes from empty to full in about 1.5 hours, according to Porodo's specifications. That is half an hour faster than the 2-hour charge listed for both the Porodo Silenza Polarized Smart Glasses and the Porodo Optix BT 5.3 Audio Sunglasses. A lunch break on a desk charger brings it most of the way back. The magnetic connector clicks onto the frame, so there is no small port to clog with dust.
Technical Specifications

- Suited to music, podcasts and calls — voice and songs both come through without extra settings.
- Volume controlled from your phone — use the phone's own buttons to raise or lower the sound.

Package Contents
Inside the sealed box you get the Porodo Tivora BT Smart Glass in Black and the magnetic charging cable it needs, since the frame has no standard USB port.

If you want the box contents of our current stock confirmed, message our team on WhatsApp before you order.
