    It felt a little clunky and not that high of quality. It has a basic use of a telescope but changing out the lenses and trying to get good detail on what you’re trying to see wasn’t exactly user friendly.

    Arrived HORRIBLY cracked! Was trying to surprise my wife with this before her birthday, and it arrived unusable. The damage was obviously done before shipping. Now we will have to watch Jupiter and Saturn through binoculars... Thanks! We'll just catch this celestial event again 800 years from now! The app will not allow me to upload my photos.
