Daughter loves going round the garden, collecting bugs, and looking at them. Magnification is very clear

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant!!!

This is so much better what we expected. Very child friendly to use. We can project pictures / videos to another devices via WIFI. Highly recommended 👌 My son loves it a lot.

Present 🎁 for grandson he loves it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor inteface and app is useless.

The touch buttons to take photographs and start/stop video are not responsive, and the interface seems to have been designed by someone tasked with making the most awkward interface to control a device with ever. It's horrible and unwieldy to use, but the Android app is far far worse.To connect the app you need to go into the settings on the microscope and set wifi to open - you ave to do this every single time you use the microscope! Once wifi is set to open you open the app on your phone and connect to the microscope's own wifi hotspot. The microscope doesn't join your own network and obviously doesn't have internet access of it's own so your phone will quickly notice there's no internet access and switch to another wifi network with autoconnect enabled until you turn off automatically connect for your regular wifi network which means your phone then won't automatically connect to your home wifi later - well not until you've gone back into the settings on your phone to turn it on again,following which it's not going to stay connected to the microscope Gettingv a headache trying to follow this? 'm not surprised.so having stopped your phone logging onto any wifi network with internet access,, gone into settings on the microscope and finally connected your phone to the microscope the first thing you see is - well the first thing you see is an error on your phone complaining about no internet access. But you are connected to the microscope. Touching the play symbol in the top right of the app takes you to a black screen whilst the app completely fails to establish a connection to the microscope. When you eventually get bored with that and go back the app shows two folders in the microscope, System Album and Personal Album. Each of those contains a video and photographs folder. I took some test photographs and video with the microscope and found myself completely unable to see any of either in the app. whichever folder I looked in.Unsurprisingly this getting returned.

1.0 out of 5 stars False advertising...

This is false advertising...it claims to be 1600x. Yet at 1000x you are supposed to be able to see blood cells. Yet when I tried to do that it failed drastically... I don't know exactly why level of magnification this was but it it not even close to 1000x.. do not be fooled...

2.0 out of 5 stars Not good for reaserch

The microscope sadly is just a simple children's toy and only goes up to 250x magnification. So if you are looking to buy a microscope with an actual microscope I don't recommend buying this one

Très instructif

Ce microscope vous montrera toutes les petites choses horribles que vous avez toujours rêvé de voir. Placez-les sous l'objectif et voilà ! Le monde regorge de choses qui ont des visages et qui veulent vous dévorer pendant votre sommeil. Je le recommande vivement.Il tient ses promesses..topissime

Es bueno

Molto versatile e pratico. Non occorrono batterie e incuriosisce i bambini.

Excellent introduction to microscopes

A.G.S. · 29 July 2024

This isn't intended to be a scientist grade microscope. Rather it is either an introduction to microscopes for kids, or it's a tool to examine circuitry or other fine detail work.We ordered two, both of which worked perfectly straight out-of-the-box. Both the detachable camera/display and base units are independently rechargeable; and come with a decent amount of charge so you can switch on and verify they are working. Also included are slides which includes deceased bugs etc., for familiarization and examination.The optical sensor (camera) is not leading-edge technology. If compared to a Starvis II sensor (used in dashcams) you'll realize the contrast range and resolution are quite limited. However, you can control the brightness of the LED lighting (buttons behind the display) so in many cases you can easily overcome the limited contrast range. Color rendition is excellent, and the camera is well matched to the provided LCD display. There's clearly a trade-off between cost and sensor quality but considering the intended audience, I don't see a problem. If the kids show interest, we can always go up-market at a future date.I had no difficulty using this microscope to examine leaves, bugs, electronic components and boards, both indoors and out. The ability to detach the camera/display from the base made this a very useful field tool. I also liked the ability to change the color of the LED's in the base unit. This is a useful feature when examining slides as different colors can sometimes highlight the unique features of the sample under examination. Again, there is a compromise between cost and capability. At max intensity, the light isn't as bright as I would like, but that's a minor quibble.I couldn't verify the magnification; however I did note that optical quality degrades quickly at the higher magnifications. Again, to be expected at this price point. Even so, I was able to quickly identify a dry joint on a circuit board and observes mites crawling across a leaf, so again, fit for the purposes I previously noted.Overall impressions: solid construction and performance - I was pleasantly surprised. This is, in my opinion, a well-balanced combination of price and performance. We are targeting our 6 and 8 year old kids, so they begin to gain an appreciation for a world of tiny things. If their interest is fired, we will go up-market as (age) appropriate. If not, then I have a handy tool for my electronic and modeling workshop!
