I was looking for a camera that was easy to carry and took good pictures.
This appears to be the one. The only real negative I've found is the need for AA or rechargeable batteries.
Taking it to Alaska. We'll see.

Not easy to use, took me 20 minutes to figure out how to attach it to my iPhone 7 Plus. It slides across screen and phone in a way that would likely cause scratches with continual use.

I have used the Olloclip lenses with every version of iPhone I've had since they came out. Best optics and high quality design as well as form factor.
The telephoto lens is the one I find most useful since iPhone's built-in lens is fairly wide to begin with and optical zoom gives a much better resolution than digital zoom. Also, iPhone 7 Plus' second "telephoto" lens isn't really a telephoto. Much better results achieved with the Olloclip telephoto lens clip.

Got this for my husband, for him it is bulky and must take the phone casing off to use it.
He doesn’t use it very much

It won't fit over any phone case. Too much trouble and risk to remove a new iPhone to use an external camera.

The telephoto lens isn't good. Also, it holds very tight and scratched my phone.

I accidentally drop it on the concrete and it did not break! The different design it has I just knew the lens would be cracked but it clipped right back into place. Get this lens set before its gone! its perfect for when you don't wanna bring your camera with you.

Didn’t notice that much of a difference. Super hard to get on and off the phone, plus you have to remove your case! It also cracked my glass protective screen when trying to get it on the phone.

I bought this along with the case for my iPhone 7plus. It was difficult to get on, and it ruined my screen protector. I couldn't get it centered on phone lens. So I returned it.
