A frame can look bold because of its color, its rim outline or the way the photo was taken. Before buying glasses you cannot try on, separate that visual impression from physical weight and lens thickness. They are different questions and may need different information.
Compare photographs at a useful scale
Open the larger product views and compare the upper rim, lower rim and corners. Keep the images at a similar displayed size for a style comparison, but do not use that display size to calculate dimensions.
Notice whether a lighter color makes the rim less prominent to you. That may explain a preference without proving that the frame is physically thinner or lighter.
Do not infer material or weight from the outline
A slim-looking rim is not a published gram weight. A thick-looking rim does not, by itself, tell you the material or how the finished pair will feel. Read the specifications and ask about missing details that matter to you.
The finished lens appearance is another question. If it matters for your prescription, ask about the exact frame-and-lens combination. Do not choose a material upgrade on the assumption that it guarantees a certain edge thickness.
Choose which impression you want to change
If your current glasses feel visually too strong, color or outline may be enough to explore. If they feel physically heavy, ask about complete-pair weight and fitting instead of changing only the photograph’s look.
Keep those goals separate in your shortlist. That makes it easier to compare real options and avoid buying a style change as though it were a comfort guarantee.
Use a specific frame for your comparison
