Unable to contact customer service. The product has good potential but cannot solve the customer support problem. Probably bought from another company

I've barely seen the rings of Saturn at 20mm, I had to use 10mm, it seems 2.5x stronger - still a beginner lol. My old computerized Celestron 102 had a Barlow add-on so you could actually see Saturn's rings clearly. More expensive and more difficult to set up, it's easy and you only use the Red Dot Finder Scope anyway. Don't forget to turn it off. The iPhone app works well EXCEPT for having to line up the damn thing in the dark when moving the telescope for example when you're camping and can't

First impression. WOW. I received the StarSense Explore DX 102AZ, simply assembled it and had two clear nights to use it. It's lightweight, easy to move, but still pretty strong after installation. The app works surprisingly well, and after a few taps on the screen, the crosshairs knew where it was and I was guided to objects. The app is intuitive and very responsive.

I've…

I've just received the new StarSense Explorer 4" refractor telescope with new technology and I have to say I'm very impressed.

This allows you to observe many planets and deep sky objects quickly and easily. The Starsense app comes with simply docks with your phone's camera and shows you how to fine-tune with…

Then this is definitely the telescope you should take a look at. At the moment I'm mainly reviewing the setup and save features since I just got it and I'm still learning all of its features. First off, installation was easy. So far I love the tripod. It folds and installs easily and is stabilized by an easily removable tray. (If you normally use your patio or balcony for stargazing, this shouldn't pose a stability problem if it's firmly attached.) A real telescope has a pretty clever way of…
