I'm thoroughly impressed with this portable microscope. The pictures are of the rag and my jeans.This is really easy to use. It has 8 led's that are diffused to illuminate your subject - plenty bright without causing glare. Its can zoom in REALLY closely and provides surprising detail. It also has an additional 4x digital zoom if you want a little more magnification on the screen. My son and I were able to count the eyes on a dead spider! Battery life is wonderful - I hardly have to charge it. Charging is done with USB-c. You can take pictures of what you're looking at and export using a micro-sd card.This is a nifty gadget and it works very well!

This digital microscope is pretty neat, it has 4 zoom features, the ability to take pictures stored on internal memory with an option to use sd micro chip for extra photos. I have another brand that is similar to this, but this one has a better camera & features.It allows you to view on your pc with your PC's camera software such as OBS or built in camera app on windows. You have to use USB-C to USB-C connector in order for this to work, and you cant adjust the zoom.I got this for one reason & one reason only. It was to authenticate MTG cards by viewing the green dot & for pre grading prior to sending cards in to be graded. It can handle this task, but ultimately a 30x jewelers loop with a light still trumps this. A jewelers loop is able to view a card through a penny sleeve & toploader/one-touch very clearly without having to remove the card from protective casings. This device has a lot of trouble doing that clearly, it would be better if you viewed the card raw, but for this you have to place it directly on the object which it would easily scratch the card.

Yes, it's a great idea for a kid, as long as he or she is interested in the real world: I doubt if there are any known objects in the universe that haven't been imaged to the nth degree. The images this item can produce are many degrees less than that.I'd still suggest they start with a magnifying glass - so they can get a handle on optics. Then they'll have an idea off the how's, why's and limitations of graphic imaging.That being said, it's quite a good "high-tech" magnifying glass.The documentation says it's for viewing flat objects; yet you can get a closeup view of what's under your fingernails (if you're brave), as long as you realize that the focus will be limited to a smaller part of the view screen. Experience with a magnifying glass will make that an obvious assumption.Someone asked if it was good for looking at printed circuit boards. The answer is a definite maybe! The issue is: can you get the lens close enough to the subject? The body of the scope is a couple of inches wide. If other components on the board are in the way - then you can't get the lens close enough to focus.There's a 3-step increase/decrease between magnification levels. a printed letter "a" that takes about a third of the screen width at low magnification will fill the whole width after 3 clicks of the "+" button.Even without any kids (even kids at heart), in the household, this is an interesting and useful gadget to have.

Ease of usage.Compact.It enhances what ever item, or object you want to look at closely very well.The zooms are great, but they are not refined, and a bit overly generous, and the zoom takes some getting use too.The lights are great: They are bright, and lights everything up very well.I have used it several times now, and to be honest it does take a little getting used to but once you get it: awesome!Not much in the area of storage, I have not fully investigated the full storage capacity on it, and I have not as of yet plugged it into the PC to remove the images I tested.I will update accordingly.But as it stands functionally speaking it is great for kids, and adults to plat with.All' N All a great little microscope, at a really good price!

If you are in to Science, Biology, Botany, Insectology or just cool stuff then this Handheld Digital Microscope (HDM) is for you!I uploaded some pictures for your viewing pleasure: - My water bottle on a drink coaster that looks like an area rug - The tassel fibers on the ends of my drink coaster (using the HDM) - The underside of a stink bug's face (using the HDM) - Me using the HDM while it's connected to my computer and the image is displayed on my computer - The icon you need to click on your computer's camera app to show the live feed from the HDM's camera (USB-C cable required and included). It's the button you use to flip the camera from forward view to reverse view.Use:The camera on the HDM is set up into the housing giving you plenty of space between the surface with your sample (table, rock or whatever) and the camera lens without your sample actually touching the lens. This means it's easier to use this camera with objects that are thicker than what you would need if you used a traditional microscope using slides. It's meant to be used hands-free but it's easy enough to also use it by holding it (as I did for the bug pic).What I like: - It's really easy to use (Plug n' Play) - Has it's own display - Has a micro-memory card slot for storage on the go - Utilizes your computer's camera app to record images and video via USB-C (cable included) - Has it's own internal rechargeable battery - Has it's own LED lights - no external lights are needed and can work in complete darkness (caves etc) - Small and light weight - Has a zoom, a capture button and a review button (for memory card images)What I don't like: - Zoom isn't strong enough to view single-cell creaturesThis is an excellent teaching aid for your kids and would make a fabulous gift for any child who loves to learn about their environment.5 stars!
