Super for sky gaze, not good for general purposes
It is very hard to look at a specific point, as it magnitudes huge, it shakes even if you use a tripod, buy a metal adapter as the included plastic one does not do the job, every tiny touch makes a huge vibration. I would go with a less magnification if you plan to use for general purposes. Otherwise the quality is good and the image is sharp!Update: After a while the vibration of the objects due to 25x (even with a tripod) becomes more annoying, go with less magnification like 15x.

Good binoculars
Need a stand or resting place for stable view. Was able to see jupiter moons. However first need some experience seeing it via telescope and need binoculars to be very stable, supported on stand or any other platform. Some nebulae can be seen clearly without support.

Powerful magnification
Pros:1) Powerful magnification.2) Strong build quality3) Very clear in nighttime-good for astronomyCons:1) Very heavy, high magnification means its hard to hold steady by hand.2) Tripod mount was missing in the box. Seems like the box was already opened.

Great set of Binoculars! If you've got the viewing space, these definitely work.
**TLDR**Perfect pair for beginners or general enthusiasts, for the price listed. Easily view objects up to a ~mile away. Easy to use focal adjustments. Good weight. They look pretty decent. Arrived within 12 hours of purchase. Happy and recommended.***Being honest: I am no expert on optics. I love stargazing and birdwatching (doves, hawks, etc.) since the area I live in provides me with plenty of both, despite being a fairly developed township. I get a GREAT view of the moon & [some] stars in my tiny "courtyard" of a yard, and I've always always always wanted a closer look at them.Experts on many forums recommend that beginners with stargazing should simply start off with "a good pair of binoculars," which I don't even own anyway, so I started here and looked around.To summarize, I settled on this pair because of the reasonable price compared to other Binocular sets with similar features & specs. The aesthetics, albeit not as "cool" as its competitors, are still quite nice in its simplicity.**FUNCTIONALITY**They're fantastic! My home is situated in a sort of "retention" area with a VERY steady grade off towards the south, so you easily can see a mile + down the road. Naturally, this was my first test for the Binoculars. I was DELIGHTED. I could EASILY read the street signs, tell the Make and Model of every vehicle, read their License Plates, and if I had it steadily sitting on a Tripod, I'd reckon I could make out the individuals driving the vehicles.I look up at the colossal power line poles towering over the sides of my home and saw what I THOUGHT was an Itty bitty dove sitting on the cables, found it with the bonoculars, did a quick focal adjustment, and it turned out to be a huge HAWK.So, I am excited for nightfall to see what I can SEE.Definitely puts things into perspective. ;) hyuck hyuck.**PRACTICALITY**Since the viewing scopes are larger, it does make them a little forward-heavy, but it personally isn't an issue. I like the weight! It makes it feel sturdy.All of the vision adjustment is pretty intuitive. They're obviously not ready for your use right out of the box, so make sure you take a minute to get familiar with the adjustment wheels & their exact purpose (which is explained on the 1st page of the manual included with the Binoculars).Included with the Binoculars are: Tripod Adaptor, Neck Strap, microfiber Lens Cloth, & a nice sturdy Carry Bag (akin to a Lunchbox bag).**AESTHETICS**Let's be reasonable, these are Binoculars, so unless they're gold-plated or something your expectations can't be too great in this regard. Circling back to earlier, I did say I still wanted a pair that looked good, and these DO look good. The stitching of the material around the front lenses gives it a human touch, kind of like the stitching of the leather on a steering wheel.If you read all this, I appreciate it. This is a great starting set. I recommend to anyone stepping their foot through the door on stargazing or general long-distance viewing. Also, buy their carrying case (separately)! It's pretty sturdy.

Excelente produto.
Ao comprar fiquei com receio , por causa da grande diferença de valor entre o produto brasileiro e esse , que vem da china .Porém posso garantir que o produto é excelente , a qualidade ótica é excepcional , principalmente para a observação da lua . Não tem nada a invejar aos telescópios convencionais .Podem comprar sem medo .

Excelente calidad de material e imágen.
Hace falta decirlo, a mi parecer, una excelente relación calidad/precio, vienen cuidados, limpios, las lentes son de excelente calidad, se sienten robustos y cumplen lo que prometen. Sin embargo hay que aclarar, estos binóculares requieren de un tripié, es posible observar con ellos con solo las manos pero pesan bastante y se vuelve cansado, igualmente es necesario mencionar que el aumento (el cual es increíble para observación de astros, la luna, paisajes etc) deja al límite la posibilidad de tener una imágen estable sin tripié. Hace unos días estuve observando el cielo en busca del cometa C/2022 E3 (ZTF), el famoso cometa verde, a pesar de lo tenúe que era y de estar cerca de una ciudad densa logré vislumbrar el manchón verde del cometa, ver nebulosas como orión o conjuntos estelares como las pleyades es increíble, desde que los tengo observo el cielo cada noche (si el clima se presta claro). Algo más, si quieres estos binóculares es posible que estés pensando también en un teléscopio, la realidad es que comprar estos binóculares es una excelente opción, no solo tienen el alcance y la luminosidad suficiente para competir con un telescopio de bajo costo sino que son mucho más económicos (en perspectiva, se requeriría de un telescopio de cielo profundo de al menos 4 mil a 6 mil pesos), son mucho más comodos de transportar por obvias razones y en general, a menos que quieras dedicarte de lleno a la astronomía, unos binoculares como estos son una alternativa más que excelente. Para teminar, dejé un par de fotos, la primera es como se ve con los binoculares y el adaptador para teléfono, la segunda es una toma con un teleobjetivo 300mm.

Buenos binoculares astronómicos
Son algo pesados pero por la calidad de imagen lo vale. He podido ver la luna, un eclipse y hasta nebulosas de forma fácil sin necesidad de un telescopio. Los volvería a comprar sin duda, son muy resistentes y de buena calidad.
