Review Summary
2026-02-02T19:00:00
Bought these to replace some small ones on the boat. We spend weekends on the boat and only had a small set of 10x glasses. There is snow on the ground here so I have not had them out on the water but I have used them on the farm in the cow pasture. They are clear and easy to get adjusted. Yes, you could spend more and maybe get a little clearer but these would be hard to beat at the price point. Thanks,

I've always been a fan of Bushnell optics and this product is a good one, as expected. The clarity is excellent and the cost will fit most budgets. The only reason I didn't rate it five stars is because the moving parts are pretty stiff. The left to right eye adjustment and the focus knobs are hard to move. But this is true of my other Bushnell binoculars as well. One other piece of advice is, with the magnification of 12, it's pretty hard to hold these steady by hand.

The covers fall off there needs to be a fix for this at the cost.

The lense covers don't fit. They simply fall off. I contacted the company, they said I probably received the wrong size. So they sent me another, single, lense cover. Binocular has two. . . . I contacted customer support, I'm waiting for a solution. The binoculars are great. The carrying bag and neck strap are very cheap compared to an older pair. I guess the lense covers are being made cheap too. That could be why they don't fit. . . I hope they last as long as the last pair I had for many years.

So disappointed! I replaced my failing binoculars with the exact same specs from this same company and they are not the same quality at all. It brings birds closer, but there are no details whatsoever. Just a blob.

These binoculars give a tack-sharp view extending to the edge of the FOV. The extra-long eye relief makes it possible to wear thick eyeglasses (with twist up eyecups in any position) and still get the entire FOV. The image from these compares favorably with any of the binoculars that I have. If you are looking for a good 7x50 with long eye relief and sharp image quality, check these out.

I bought these to bird watch. The price was right, and I did not sacrifice image quality since these are Porro prism binoculars. Very clear images, easy to focus, nice wide field of view. Some people might not like that they are heavy compared to some binoculars. I go on long outings and the weight has never been an issue.

We are going to see Elton John at Dodger Stadium and our seats are behind 3rd base and the stage is in the outfield so we wanted a pair of binoculars so we didn't have to rely on the "big screen". These were perfect. Bought 2 pairs. One for me and one for my wife. The binoculars are great but it was difficult to get the straps through the slots on the binoculars. They could have made that easier.

Bought these to have a small pair of binoculars to leave on a window ledge at our cottage. Very impressive for the price.

Got these as a birthday present and I'm really impressed on how great they are, I was looking for a good pare of binoculars for a long time and finally got them. Definitely would recommend, great price and great product.

I had these as a warranty replacement due to my last pair fogging up. They are slightly more compact but do not feel as nice in the hand as my last pair which had a soft rubber outer. I would have preferred them to be black but that's just a personal preference. I also agree with the last reviewer, the lens caps seem cheap are too large and keep falling off, not great.

Optics are pretty good, convenient size for travel, haven't had to test the waterproofing yet and hope I don't

My husband bought these for me and I am so impressed with the clarity, even in low light. I highly recommend these.

I am disappointed that the large caps do not fit tight enough to stay in place!! They fall off before I can get the binoculars in it's case. I know I will lose them pretty soon. What a shame

I received these binoculars a couple months ago. I was seeking the compact size and high magnification. The focus knob does not move smoothly which seems to result in the two sides sometimes not moving together. At distance, I cannot get the eyepiece focus to match the main focus (left eye) resulting in one side being out of focus from the opposite side. I have 20-20 vision in both eyes. The strap that comes with the binoculars us useless since it won't go through the mounting slots on the binoculars. It appears that the slots were engineered expecting the binoculars to NOT have rubber armor, however the binoculars DO have rubber armor, making it impossible to thread the strap through the slots. They may be ok to give to a kid as a toy, but there are better/less expensive choices. Buy something else.
