## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by J***N on 15 November 2024*

My whole is excited to use it. Good for kids. Mounting and using the phone is bit difficult.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing pocket microscope
*by B***H on 7 October 2024*

The product is very good and can take very detailed microscopic images in phone.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product for it’s price!!! It works well.
*by S***I on 20 December 2024*

I didn’t have high expectations for a microscope at this price point, but it has genuinely surprised me! I’ve been using it to take pictures of bugs and mosquitoes, and the level of detail it captures is impressive. You do need to hold it very steady to get a clear view, so I’ve been using it on a tabletop, which works well indoors. However, I’m not sure how practical it will be for outdoor use.Despite that, loving it so far, I’m constantly searching for interesting things to examine under the microscope. The only downside is the image quality, which could be better. I assume the lens might be made of plastic and could be the reason for the slight compromise in clarity. Still, for the price, it’s a great little device!
