Authentic ROXANT Grip Scope High Definition Wide View Monoculars for Adults High Powered - with Retractable Eyepiece & Fully Multi Coated Optical Glass Lens + Bak4 Prism - Monocular Telescope Black

I was in the market for a small monocular to use primarily at football games and concerts. I checked out all the scopes on Amazon, where I do most of my shopping. I hold Amazon buyer reviews in high regard because, for the most part, they are honest and trustworthy. Therefore, before I buy a product I sort through the reviews and I find myself drawn to the item with the best reviews. The reviews for the Grip Scope stood out among the other scopes and so I took a closer look. I must say that I am glad that I did. I purchased the Grip Scope not only because of the specs, but also because of the great reviews. Although I thought that it might be a little large for my needs, I decided to pull the trigger and buy it anyway. When it arrived I was immediately impressed. It is not too large and I like the weight and the feel of it in my hand. Also, because of the weight and design it is easy to hold the scope steady without it being too heavy or light - it is perfect regardless of whether it is in your hand, your pocket, or hanging around your neck by the included lanyard. It appears to be well-constructed and it is easy to focus and use. I also like the design of the retractable eyepiece because I do wear glasses. Some other scopes and binoculars use a soft rubber eyepiece that must be folded down when not it use; I much prefer the Grip Scope twist design. The manufacturer's description of the Grip Scope was not only dead on correct but, unlike most companies, the description provides the reader with a wealth of information beyond just specs. I will certainly recommend the Grip Scope and I would certainly buy it again. Thanks for a great product at a very reasonable price!

This Roxant monocular is a perfect addition to my survival collection. Sure, you can see the equivalent of 10 city blocks away from a good vantage point, but with this, you can see much more detail. I took it to the window to look about 1/4 mile away, and was able to clearly read the writing on storefront property doors, such as suite #'s, see the edges of the buildings and the areas on the sides and behind them with much more clarity as well. Basically, it's not supposed to magnify the expression on someone's face, though it is clear enough to see whether or not they're smiling! But the point of this, for me anyways, is to be able to clearly identify activity, to clearly see and identify movement, and with this monocular, i will be able to survey any location from a safe distance prior to entering the area.There's a con though! The little bag this comes in is a good bag, granted. My issue with it though is that it's not padded at all. It's just the thin material of the bag protecting the lenses, both of them. I tell you that if you drop this while it's in the carry case and either side of it hits the ground on top of a lucky raised up and pointy object, it will probably be damaged. So i cut out two 1 1/2" X 12" strips from a Life cereal box and thoroughly electrical taped them together to form one longer, circular protective covering. If you do it right, you can fit the monocular inside of the thin long piece of cardboard and stretch it around it very taut. Then, keep it in that shape and push the monocular out of it, secure the cardboard that way, then complete the tape wrap & it will be perfect. Bend it this way and that and in about 20 minutes, you'll have a very, very tough circle of protection that you can squeeze the monocular into. Then you can take the included cleaning cloth and slide it into the side of the monocular's new protective housing, connect the included strap to the loop that the monocular is fitted with, tuck that into the side of the housing, and it's all done. Then, stuff it back into the carry case and throw it against the wall or out the window if you want, it will hold up to anything except a deliberate and very heavy crushing.I'm sure there are other ways, i tried using a thin strip of towel, even squares to cover the lenses, but this ended up being absolutely the perfect protection because it is thin enough to fit inside the bag and certainly tough enough to keep it from giving if it lands vertically on either side (sides as in where the lenses are).Lastly, the adjustable eye piece is perfect because it truly helps with clearing up the picture. Take advantage of it! I couldn't have asked for a more professional device with which to survey areas from afar. If SEHTF, my little girl and me won't ever be walking into any situation which could have been avoided simply by paying $40 for an awesome monocular that is super-compact.Buy it, you won't regret it. Not for this price and for the amount of zoom that it provides. If you're looking to have power-vision with a monocular, don't complain about this product. Go spend a thousand dollars and you'll barely accomplish a better result.

Dear Sirs,The Roxant Grip Scope that I bought was a Christmas present for a fisherman/boater son-in-law who also happens to live on a waterway. The purpose of the scope was to give him a quick means to observe his surroundings closeup, which includes checking out fish action on the water surface (presence of schools, fish jumping, etc.), identifying shoals, wave conditions, etc. It's also useful for bird identification,The main point is that it works. It felt a little small for my large hand, but not for the recipient's, who appreciated its compactness. The scope is solid, the images are clear, the carrying case is useful, and mainly, it serves the purpose of carrying portable magnification power on board and having it handy in the home for quick observations. It makes a welcome alternative to binoculars in many instances.We tried using it to take telephoto photos of distant objects in conjunction with an IPhone (something we read in a review), but haven't developed the knack for that yet.In all, It's a good, useful product, and it's sharpness and portability make it great for sportsmen who want to spy out distant objects without having to take along cumbersome optical equipment.On Sat, Dec 24, 2016 at 12:00 AM, ROXANT - Amazon
