Usogood 10X42 Monocular Telescope High Power, Monoculars for Adults

I took a punt on this monocular as it was so reasonably priced, I didn't really expect much for the price but am very pleasantly surprised, in fact I'm thrilled with it. I have a problem with the vision in my left eye (macular pucker) and as I enjoy birdwatching and wildlife and nature viewing this has been a growing problem using my quite expensive binoculars. I decided to try this monocular as I end up closing one eye anyway. I'm delighted with how lightweight and compact it is, easily slipping in my bag, it even fits the pocket of my cargo pants. It fits snugly in my hand and the hand strap is genius, once I got used to it. Its easy to adjust and focus and the clarity is great. My only slight criticism is the two lens covers are a little loose fittng and I fear I may lose them The larger one has a small tab to keep it attached but it still comes off a little too easily. Overall its a great quality piece of kit which I will use loads, as its so easy to walk with it either in my hand ready to lift to my eye the second I spot something, or in my pocket, around my neck in the supplied little neck pouch.

Have a Hawke Endurance 10x42 but wanted something cheaper for my son. Bought this based on the reviews and really happy I did! Natural hold, fully featured and the optical performance is what really surprised me! Great magnification, crisp picture and good low light performance. Whilst not nitrogen filled, for this price it exceeds all expectations and my plane spotting son loves it. Highly recommended.

Excellent monocular. I only ever use one eye to see distances so this was a great purchase. View is very good and it's lightweight so easy to take out and about. Lost one star as the strap is poor and it's nigh on impossible to feed anything through one of the holes but I bought a decent strap from another Amazon provider and used a mini screwdriver to push it through! Very pleased with the monocular itself

Really good for the price. Lightweight and easy to operate with one hand. Easier to carry than my old binoculars. Happy with the clarity and magnification, I was able to see cars, people and building details on the other side of a wide part of the river Mersey, which is useless info for most people, but it was quite a far way. Anyway, there will be more expensive ones you can buy but they are good enough for what I need them for.

For the price this is a really good value, and a great addition for birdwatching. I keep mine in my car so it’s instantly available. The Monocular is very sturdy and good value, light and easy to hold, and the focussing wheel is easier than the ones on the barrel itself. The optics are clear and bright. I have an expensive scope which is great but for handiness this Monocular is good. I have used other more expensive Monoculars but this one gives a better performance than they did. I would recommend this for anyone, particularly I think for someone who may find it difficult to hold a full pair of binoculars

Great product and great quality

For a long time I have wanted to get a monocular, I find binoculars not easy to line up images, when my husband recently bought a new pair of binoculars and I still couldn’t see clearly I decided to get one. I must say it’s great, much easier to line up images and get a very clear close up of birds, animals, scenery and it’s easy to adjust. Can’t wait to use it in Cornwall where we have lots of lovely countryside and seaside it will be a regular item to take on our walks. The great thing about it was I got a discount on purchasing, the carry case is good, it’s easy to use I took off one star because although the cover for the lens just hangs below when you take it off, the one for the eye piece comes right off and I could see it might be easy to lose. It will be well used even from our window at home, we have lots of different bird life, and my monocular will add to my enjoyment.

I was pretty sceptic about those binoculars to be totally honest. Recently I bought another, similar product and I was really disappointed with it. Finally I decided to return it and order a better quality one. The main purpose for the binoculars for me is the family use case. We travel quite a lot and I always wanted to have a decent quality binoculars. When I unpacked them I straight away noticed that the quality is much better than the ones I used before. Also the attached accessories make a huge difference (stable tripod, phone holder). These binoculars are pretty light and not too big (too big for my kids, although they still like them!). It's easy to focus and feel pretty robust. They have a good gripping surface and effective lens rubber protection. As of the phone holder, initially it was a little challenging to mount and focus at the same time, but later it become straight forward. In overall, those are very good binoculars (even for those who wear glasses), really easy to use, well made and excellent viewing. I highly recommend!

I'm a mechanical engineer and amateur astronomer, and own 3 good telescopes and 2 good binoculars. I was pleasantly surprised by this handy little monocular telescope; it's much better than I expected. Many simple/low-priced optical devices (binoculars, hiking or spotting scopes) may perform fairly well in daylight, but do not work on stars. This one gives nice sharp star images, in addition to good daylight performance. It is very lightweight, indicating mostly plastic lenses, but that's no problem here. I can't help but think of old western and war movies, and imagine how useful this compact telescope would have been to cowboys and soldiers! This is not a wide-field device; field of view is less than 6 degrees, but that's okay, the view is clear and sharp. As far as I can tell magnification is very close to 10x as advertised, but the effective front lens diameter is more like 39mm than 42mm as claimed. Many of the reviews for this and similar items erroneoously refer to the 'ZOOM,' but this is not a zoom telescope. Evidently the reviewers just mean the focusing ability, which is very nice on this device. Yes, for $28.49 I'd buy it again!

Great Monocular telescope for the price. I am truly impressed by the quality of the lens at that price ! I have somme Nikon Binoculars and my Usogood Monocular compares easily with them. I am now checking out your Trails camera.

I purchased a Usogood monocular a couple of months ago because I have a vision issue that makes binoculars difficult to use (and I wanted a little more zoom). Now I am obsessed with it for birding and sightseeing--easy to use, lightweight, small enough for toting around all day. I have taken it on many out-of-state trips and even took it to England with me. If you have struggled with using binoculars or just don't like how clunky they are, I encourage you to try the Usogood 10x42 Monocular. The zoom is high enough that you get great views, but not so dramatic that you will struggle to find your landmarks. Somehow, in my travels, I found that moisture had entered the tube (not sure how or why). Although I was able to get some of it to evaporate, the monocular wasn't able to get those crisp, close views I had come to expect. I contacted Usogood because the item was under warranty and the customer support I received was excellent. They were kind and they quickly replaced my item with a brand new one. Shipping was fast and communication was clear. I took a chance on an inexpensive monocular because I thought I could field test it to decide if I wanted to invest in a higher end version, but I am so happy with the function of the Usogood item and the customer service really can't be beat. I would purchase from Usogood again.

I was looking for a small compact monocular that was inexpensive. I found this one and it meets the need! The small size allows for easy walking, hiking, or riding with it without the bulk of binoculars, but it still has good sighting power of 10x42. View quality was decent also. I would recommend this product if you are looking for a compact monocular. The only thing I would change is to have a better cap covering the lens at the end of the monocular.

I purchased this for bird watching at my backyard feeders. After purchasing and returning several spotting scopes, because the feeder distance is too close for a scope to focus , I thought I would give this little monocular a try. Wearing eyeglasses, by time I focus binoculars the birds have had their snack and flown off. This monocular is prefect! Lightweight, easy to focus with adjustment using one finger . I can focus on my feeder at 20 feet away quickly turn to the squirrels on my fence at 60 ft. It is powerful enough to focus and read the street name sign 3 houses away. The carrying case is not padded but nice for the price, carrying strap is light weight and not bulky or cumbersome on hand, the lense cap is fastened with a small strap, also can mount on a tripod . I have not tried the tripod as the monocular is very light weight and easy to use with one hand . It is small and sits easily on my window sill. This is perfect for back yard bird viewing and I highly recommend .
