    A cool toy for under age 12

    Image is fuzzy. Used on iPAD and iPhone. Edges of images are foggy and not clear. Cool for weird design images, or spying on cows across Lauterbruenen Valley. Other than that, this was not going to provide cool images of the boats across the ocean, as pictured on the box.

    Hard to line up. Got other bad reviews online. It is worth what it costs though. I just needed a better one.

    This seemed like a great idea, but the device only works on a case free iPhone and must be placed perfectly in order to get a good shot.

    Where to start, poor quality of lens? Poor coatings? Adapter will not stay on the phone? Well there we go, that's my review.

    Decent lens

    The zooming quality of the lens is quite good. However, I had a lot of issues aligning the lens up correctly with the phone camera. Once I had it aligned it was also difficult to keep it focused without moving the lens. The heavy weight of the lens also made it challenging to keep the phone steady to take a picture. Overall, I did take some good quality pictures and hopefully with playing with it a bit more I can get used to it.
