Customer Ratings & Reviews

It is a very good telescope. Through it, I easily see five satellite of Jupiter, and took a clear picture with Saturn on Dec 21 when Jupiter and Saturn meet.

First I will say this was a gift to my son for Christmas. The item was shipped straight in the box that this item comes in , once I received it the corners were crushed and the bottom of the box was opened, I took photos , I immediately called bb to speak to a unprofessional cs girl that didn’t speak clear English so this was fun ,I finally understood that since bb didn’t have anymore in stock if I brought the item back to the store I would have to pay a restocking fee . I said like hell I will Since this item was delivered to my son that lives3 hrs away idk if he has checked it out yet. Once I find out I will post again . I also don’t get why you would ship such a fragile item in the box that lenses and breakable things come in . I wish I would of checked in a case before ordering also BB don’t even offer a case for this item I guess they expect the mangled box to hold up forever .

Great starter for you want to get into this sort of stuff, just a sure to buy more lenses for it for better enjoyment.

I have some few problems with the telescope. The 10mm eyepiece isn’t good enough to see big objects in space. It’s suppose to be good enough to see further. Pls make the 10mm eyepiece more better so that I’m able to study astronomy.

Love this Telescope. It’s perfect for beginners and intermediate users. Bought it for my daughter and she was able to quickly get it setup and started stargazing within 15 min once it was assembled. Assembly took about 20 min. Photo of the moon was taken with an iPhone through the lens eye piece. Such a great purchase.

Easy to install and easy to use with a smart phone.

The thing sucks at night, we read everything and pit everything correctly and we read take it outside in the day then we took it out at night can’t see S.i. … we don’t know what happing and it’s really annoying. We got two for our two boys 11 and 20 . We need help really!!

Easy to use and you get amazing views of the moon!

Very happy with my purchase, can you see the Moon very clearly! I'm excited for better weather to explore the night skies!

Best beginner telescope. Clear enough to see crater markings on moon.

Amazing! Great for beginners although kinda priceyn but so far the best!

The actual telescope is a fine starter option, and smart sense is awesome. The porblem comes down to the tripod, it is so wobbly that it is almost impossible to properly view anything. I would go with a donsonian mount for better experiences.

The Celestron Starsense Explorer 130mm DX telescope is absolutely the best! The purchase from Bestbuy and the extremely fast shipping was excellent!!!!! I can't recommend this amazing telescope enough! 5 stars all the way!!!!!

This is soo pretty! Plus easy to install, haven’t used it for long but so far so good!

Phenomenal telescope, words of advice, get better eye pieces including a Barlow lens

We are extremely pleased with our telescope!! I've wanted one for years and i have so enjoyed so far!!

[Employee of bestbuy] Bought this for my daughter’s birthday. And it did not disappoint. Great product for the price.

Starsense 130mm Explorer" is your partner to navigate the Night Sky.

Love this set up! Easy to yaw and the software on your phone that the scope uses is great! Easy to set up and use. I was looking ag the rings of Saturn and the Orion Nebula in no time!

Its so frustrating to wait all that time for my telescope, to find out that the tripod is broken, i dont know, im suspecting that its either was used before or it was broken during the shipping.
