I have to be honest, I was not thrilled with this purchase. It fits onto your phone fine (you do have to remove the case from your ohone... not a fan of that)
It was kind if expensive ($99)
Ended up returning it.
I guess I was hoping that the picture would be clearer and not grainy.

Cons mentioned:
Phone case
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Works well but one design flaw...

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Works great, but having to pull the phone out of the protector/bumper/case is more of a pain than I thought. It also causes wear and tear and exposes the phone to drops. Why not have an adjustable clip?
This unfortunately is going back even though I liked it otherwise.
I give it 3 stars because if you are one of the <1% who carry around a naked iPhone, this product is for you.

Great optics and the bracket to hold lenses with the lanyard make it very easy to use plus keep track of the kit.

Okay but returning

I bought this on a whim while at BestBuy. When I got it home I realized I had to remove the protective bumper case to get the lense holder to fit. I also had a protective glass shield on my iPhone, which then shattered from the lense holder. Thank goodness I had a replacement guarantee for the glass shield. Since this product will not work with either protection devices on my iPhone, I am returning it.

I am traveling in Asia. I bought this lense prior to my trip. It is supposed to just slide on but the fit is so tight my husband and I both struggled to slide it on. I can tell when I have it misaligned because my screen dims by half. We were trying to get a shot of a sunset yesterday and failed. First you have to take the phone case off. Don't like doing that cause you are going to have to take it off and on every time you want to snap a pic. Secondly, I have the iPhone 6 s and I couldn't get the darn lense to slide into place so I handed it to my husband who got it on but we heard a noise. Stupid lense cracked my screen protector in the middle. We dinked with the lense for awhile and gave up! Can't wait to return!
