Review on High Power 12x42 HD Binoculars for Adults with Universal Phone Adapter - Lightweight Waterproof Binoculars for Bird Watching, Hunting, Outdoor Sports, and Travel - Super Bright, Large View by Yousef Abood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent optics with mobile phone holder. Lighter (1.25 lbs) than full-size 10x50 binoculars (2 lbs).

My family was on a trip to Yellowstone and looked at a wide range of binoculars from $30 to $200. I'm not a binoculars expert but I researched everything carefully and thoroughly before buying and even looked at a few different sets at my local sporting goods stores before buying! I bought two compact binoculars (10x25/12x25) for my two kids and large 10x50 porro prisms for my husband and settled on this 12x42. However, mine was the most popular and the other 3 pairs were never used. lol Compact optics are bad, like a toy. Porro 10x50 prisms are too heavy, almost 2 lbs. My husband is 6.2ft/220lbs but can't hold them for even an hour; and if you put them on your neck, it's a disaster and very painful. Also, none of them come with a smartphone adapter; that's the worst. Mine is absolutely the right size, weight and looks great. From our moving cruise ship or from a stable vantage point, they allowed me to see anything I wanted: birds, bears, eagles. They call it. With the Adasion binoculars I had perfect light, perfect magnification, absolute stability and clarity. For the money I can't imagine a happier product! FYI, they also offer a free tripod as a gift. I got mine last week.
