Great educational tool

This little pocket microscope works great! For the most part, I have used it as intended, flat on a table or desk with the subject beneath it, but I have also tried using it handheld. I've had some success, but of course it's very difficult to keep steady and focused in your hand at high levels of magnification. Using as I am supposed to though, it's very easy to set the focus and the image is very clear. My kids love using it and so do I!

Recommend this 100% it far exceeded expectations.

This thing is phenomenal, it does take a while to adjust to the level of closeness but, the clarity is impeccable and it feels like it will last me for a long while.

Handy little scope

It is really hard to hold this steady without some sort of stand, and impossible to focus it without a stand to steady it. I use an old soldering vice which is a bit overkill for a stand, but with that I can focus and get a very clear image. Reasonable width of view for the magnification and size. The light is very handy and I use it regularly for evaluating the burr when sharpening knives. Definitely a good tool for that. I bought the phone interface accessory, which would be great but is literally impossible to hold steady for focusing with the accessory attached. Definitely works better than a loupe. You can zoom the magnification, but I don't see much difference except it is even harder to hold steady. But it has a lot of magnification at the lowest power and a clear image.

Very fun to play with

Worth every penny, very fun to play around with and see the mini world.ba little awkward to use at first but you'll get used to it and be off looking at everything in upto 120x magnification.

Shows a great deal for it's size!

This mini microscope is a really cool item and is useful for a lot of different applications where seeing the make up of of an item or substance is important. the LED provide adequate lighting and the unit is compact enough that is can be put into a bag or backpack with not real increase in weight. The view is clear as long as the lenses are kept clean at both ends but may be an issue for those of us who wear glasses, as I do, but I make it work. The controls are, however a little loose and sloppy and I can see that over time and significant use they would simply become worse. The focus knob isn't nearly as sturdy as it should be and letting go of it with your fingers can set it off from where you had initially set it up, so a more precise focus is needed with closer tolerances to that the knob isn't loose or "sloppy" is needed. Also the magnification is somewhat similar to the focus knob, it does it's job, but will get looser over time and needs closer tolerances in it's manufacturing to make it reliable and stays where it is told without the act of letting go of it causing it to move slightly. Other than that it is a great tool and I do recommend it for field use just making you aware that it is what it is and that it will never be a replacement for a true microscope. But if you are looking to have a field microscope in your pocket this is a great way to get it, I do recommend a carrying case for it so that dirt and dust do not get inside of it making the adjusting knobs wear out prematurely, and to prevent being packed with other objects from causing additional sloppiness in the focus and magnification adjusters! I do wish I had bought the microscope with the slide viewing slot in it as this would have expanded it's capabilities for me but might not be necessary for everyone.

Great gift. Great value.

We got this for my son who loves science stuff. When he got it, he used it constantly. The funny thing was the entire family found themselves using it as well. It’s super fun to look into a piece of money or whatever you decide you wanna look at. This is a super cool gift. Super good value.

Seems to work well.

Seems to work as advertised. Nice to have an LED to highlight the item being looked at.

Really fun, but inconsistent manufacturing

Bought one for my son, and I’m kind of obsessed with it. Sooooo fun. Then bought one for my nephew but the depth of field is smaller than the one we have, so it’s very tricky to keep anything in focus.
