It actually does a decent job of magnifying for it's small size. I just didn't realize it was only going to be 3" x 4". I really was hoping for a typical, larger set of binoculars that don't feel like a toy.

I ordered these binoculars for an Alaskan cruise, as every bit of travel advice I read said "bring binoculars!" I HATE being weighed down with stuff during excursions and sight-seeing, so I opted for the lightest, cheapest binocs I could find. These were great, so light and compact, like carrying a camera. And it was nice to have them just in case. When I did use them, it was very easy, and the view was pretty good. No complaints!

Product arrived as described, absolute Best pair of Binoculars for my line of work. Came with carrying case and an attached small string. Fits perfect in my vest pocket and always have close at hand. Great Deal Everyone

Convenient and inexpensive for carrying in the pocket. I am more used to the larger poroprism type. The double hinge in the middle takes a little time to get used to it.

I bought these glasses in order to have a lightweight, easy-to-carry option to use at the race track. They are excellent for this purpose. From the grandstand I can clearly see the horses' numbers on the backstretch, a distance of about 500 yards.
