5.0 out of 5 stars Great value binoculars
Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2024
I've recently started using binoculars again for birdwatching, taking in sights from a lake view, and hikes. I am building a general use casual camping and hiking pack and wanted to pick up some small, lightweight binos to mount on Molle for easy access.

These binos were very pleasing, especially at the discounted price.

They seem to be around a genuine 8x21.

The case is about the quality I expected. It's not outstanding but it's sized well, keeps the binos secure, and should probably withstand light use. I expect the stitching on the belt loop to fail first, so I may consider an upgrade if that's the case.

The binos are great! I've seen better optics, but at this price I was very pleased at the clarity and sensitivity and stability of the focusing dials. The double jointed action feels smooth and robust. The rubberized parts seem sturdy enough to take minor abuse - I am clumsy and even fumbled it out of the packaging and it took a small drop fine.

Perhaps best of all, this little bino feels tough and LIGHT. For a fully equipped hiking pack every ounce counts, and these shaved a few ounces off my previous pair of out of production binos from 15 years ago.

The neck lanyard is pretty cheap, but useable. I almost was inclined not to attach it in the first place since I will mostly use them as backpack binos. Probably fine if I want to take it on a wildlife watching stroll. YMMV.

Not many reviews mention glasses, so I will. I prefer to keep my glasses on when using binos because I am often moving or switching between tasks. The eye relief on these is not great, but rolling up the eye cups makes the field of view adequate (for me). You'll probably lose a noticable part of the field of view relative to no glasses, but I didn't find it too bothersome and it will suffice for my intended uses.

If I were planning on going on a survival tour, I'd probably want something a little more powerful and more robust to the elements. For my intended casual bino uses, I couldn't be happier with this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Smaller, But Big Enough
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2024
Small in size but a nice weight for easy handling. Easy focus and clear views. I have used Bushnell binoculars both professionally and in my personal life. I always choose the Bushnell brand for top quality products. I believe this item is a great buy for the price.

1.0 out of 5 stars Misaligned easily
Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2024
Pretty quickly they became misaligned and I haven’t been able to get them back in order. Kept seeing double! Definitely worth spending a little more for better bins…

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality, compact & affordable
Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2024
This my the 2nd pair I have bought. The big benefit is, it is very compact to travel with and has quality vision to see through. I bought this for my daughter in law to find my grandson surfing. Works like a charm.

I have traveled all over the world with my pair and it is light, packs well and does the job.

Light weight, and durable. Not the best for distance but they did the job for us at Yellowstone National Park. Great brand and price.
