TECHO Universal Professional Camera Cellphone Review

I bought this for my uncle for Christmas as he is an Apple fan and thought it would be cool for his iPhone. He liked it out of the box. The packaging was simple and minimal, which was great, and you could tell that the lens itself would be of high quality for that reason alone. He immediately attached it to his phone with ease, despite having a larger case, and started photographing everything. He really enjoyed it and still sends me photos of himself (especially close-ups of his meals) from…

I rarely leave reviews but damn it! I ordered that crappy little thing for $9 off Amazon a week ago. It arrived dirty and damaged as if it had been used. However, this lens is amazing. I shoot with a DSLR every day and when I opened it on my phone I was blown away. They always say glass. Cup. Cup. It might not be an A, L series lens, but it does a phenomenal job, both in macro mode and wide-angle. It really makes it less painful to leave the house without a camera because I just have to put…

Lenses are effective with the iPhone 6's camera. I was able to get some very good macro shots. I found the wide angle less useful, but it still takes sharp photos. The lenses have metal bodies and appear to be of good quality. Unfortunately, the glass is connected with an extremely thin plastic clip. Just by carrying lenses did I break the tiny, thin mounting ring that held the lens barrel. (See photo) As a result I now have a lens that I have to try to get onto the iPhone's lens to take a…

This lens is so amazing. It's well made, with a great feel when you unscrew or unscrew the lenses. A wide angle must be used in certain places, otherwise there will be severe distortions at the edges. Check out the video link below to see what I mean. [.] If you watch the video, you can see that having distortion was good for me; it adds to the effects, but it's a choice. If you noticed while filming the video that the wide angle wasn't distorted because the picture was actually wide! I still…

My lenses can cost up to $5,000. The ones I use for my DSLR, so it costs next to nothing to spend $17 and tweak it a bit. What surprises me is the quality of such a simple little lens and how well it works on my iPhone with little experience and the first few shots! I was in a hurry to see how good it would be, sorry for the poor lighting but the detail is phenomenal! Also, the picture was taken very close... maybe 2 inches? Sorry, but the slightest movement of the camera nearby will shake. I…

The clip doesn't fit properly on the iphone 5s camera, it's almost impossible to make an easy seal while centering the lens/clip . Also, the grip ring on the clamp isn't cleanly off-center and can easily blur the edges of the photo. It's also an inferior gummy that isn't sticky/addictive at all. Aside from that, you can get it working if you're not impatient. But a tripod is almost a must. I am very happy with the quality of the lens and the photos turned out better than I expected. This will…

I've bought various lenses over the years to fit my phones, but they all had the same problem: they couldn't easily be used until I removed my phone case. It's a hassle and often just not worth the time or effort to take off my high quality case (I love Urban Armor Gear btw). Fortunately, the Techo-Clip solves this problem simply and elegantly. Simply open the clip by pinching your thumb and other fingers together, position the wide-angle lens so that it is centered on the camera lens, release…
