5.0 out of 5 stars SO fun!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2024
The Easter Bunny brought this to my 5 year old this year and we have LOVED using it!

The kit comes with everything you could need to use it, including an SD card to be able to save any screenshots or video you take. The case is very durable and handy to carry everything around with you.

We especially love using this outside and finding various plants and bugs to view with it. The scope itself is lightweight and on it's own takes up little space so is easy to pack in a small backpack and take out when needed.

This is just such a fun educational tool. I purchased an additional pack of slides for my daughter and she will spend a good chunk of time just viewing each slide and taking pictures. I myself as an adult also find it so fun to use. Definitely recommend!

To start, I really, really wanted to show photos of what it does. I have a newer computer and it is not like the computers (the OS) I have been using my whole life. I can't even access the memory card. I also plugged it in via USB and nothing even popped up. I am frustrated. So, I am kind of sad about it because I worked a while to get photos for you.

To anyone into rocks, we know what druzy is. It is the fine microcrystals that can form in rocks or minerals. They are roughly 1/10 of a centimeter (and are very beautiful). This is what I took pictures of. Using the handheld microscope was very convenient. I did run into challenges when trying to place it on uneven angles. I ran into focusing issues too. I am aware it is manual, but I tried my best. I do not think the range of focus was very wide. As in, I had to get the tightest zoom on an area for a good picture. It wasn't too easy getting a wider photo with everything looking good.

Don't get me wrong, I love this microscope. I like it so much, I am considering getting a different style from this brand. When viewing the prepared slides, everything is crystal clear and amazing! I didn't try out making my own, but from my education in science, I have no doubt it will work. Use a drop of water to hold your sample in place and it can magnify it as well.

I would recommend for any kid interested in science or checking out how cool close up can be. I would also recommend this for anyone who enjoys walks or hikes, or anyone who is curious about the world around them. Again, for the price, this is cheaper than a high quality magnifying glass and you can take video or photos for posterity.

Also, it comes in a sturdy case for travel. It's not exactly hiker friendly, but good for the backpack for an afternoon. So far, the battery has lasted extremely well. I just hope the light doesn't burn out. I don't think you can replace the bulb.

5.0 out of 5 stars Many uses

Many would call this a novelty item, me included. However, there are so many uses for this item and many are quite valid as other than novelty uses. That said, if you need something to see a virus, this microscope probably won't cut it. Nevertheless, this is a pretty good microscope. It has a bright adjustable light, adjustable focus, and several magnification levels. It has a great battery; it comes with a microSD chip, and it can take HD videos and pics; you can hook it up to your phone or your computer to see even better than the small viewing screen, which is a pretty good screen anyway; it comes with a nice carrying case for easy travel. I think it would make a great gift for a young student or a host of other people that might have a need for a entry level microscope. I know I could've made some great PowerPoint presentations with this back in college. You do have to sort of learn how to use this properly in order to use it at it's full potential. It may be difficult at first to find what you're looking for, however, once you figure out how to use it you'll really have a lot of fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Making Microscopes Fun!
Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2024
Regular (or traditional) microscopes are really great once everything is set up, the slides are prepared, it's plugged in and ready to go, the light is turned on, the correct lens is in position (and not touching/breaking the slide!) - It's a lot of setup!

But the point of the microscope as it relates to kids, in my view, is to be able to see things in a new way via extreme magnification. It is to unlock the wonder of what is happening at the micro level.

This microscope is so great because it requires next to no setup! You essentially just point it at what you want to magnify, and dial in the focus knob! You don't have to worry about your lens hitting your subject, you don't have to prepare slides (though there are some that come pre-prepped, which is nice!), you don't have to plug it in (except to charge the battery). You can literally just take it outside and start looking at things. This allows for a child to wonder at the world and explore it on his own terms.

The product itself came with a usb cable to charge it and needed a charge out of the package. As soon as I plugged it in, though, I realized it will work while it is charging, so I could instantly start using it while attached to USB. The light comes on automatically and the controls are very simple.

One thing I had to get used to was using the 'M' key to switch between video and camera mode. Then, using the 'OK' button to start/stop video or take a picture.

The very first time I used it, I caught a spider in one of the included clear plastic cases, and looked at it with the scope. The scope seems to use 1 lens, and the magnification levels seem to be digital as far as crop zooming in on the subject rather than actually using different magnifying lenses. This is to be expected in this format, and the digital zoom does not look bad.

I could see all the little tiny hairs on the spider, and it was really cool! I took some pictures, and I'm anxious for my kids to check out the spider under the scope this morning when they wake up. I know they are going to get some good use out of this out in the backyard - Looking at leaves and flower pedals and catching insects to observe. I'm very happy this product exists. It certainly doesn't replace a traditional microscope (we will be keeping our regular one), but it opens up the tiny world to a child's imagination in such a natural way. Highly recommended.
