Review on ๐Ÿ“ท APEXEL 8-in-1 Phone Camera Lens Kit: 18x Telephoto, Fisheye, Macro/Wide Angle, Star, Kaleidoscope Filters - iPhone & Smartphone Compatible! by Paul Walters

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good low budget telephoto lens but make sure you have a better stand

The stand isn't very good, it has a metal ball and plastic bracket that doesn't support any weight without rotation, so the phone just keeps spinning. Also, the legs aren't strong enough to hold the phone even if the ball joint was solid. The telephoto lens is okay and I would expect that for the money, but without a stable stand you won't get a sharp picture. The macro lens is good and allows your phone to focus on small print at about 1/4 inch away. It all comes with a parts storage bag, but the lens caps don't stay in place very well when you take them off. For the price I think it's ok. If you already have a camera tripod this would be nice for the money. The remote for the camera shutter is very easy to pair with your phone, which again is a bonus. If you have a stand that can support your phone and the weight of the lens.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not the best
