Exceptional quality
Perfect binos for scouting, clear glass.
Kinda hard to beat for the price.

After watching many reviews on many different binos, I decided these were the winners in the price/performance tradeoff. I've only had them a week, but so far I've been impressed at the image quality, including early morning, full sun, and cloudy/rain. Can't wait to take back country hunting shortly!

Nice Glass!
Solid optics with excellent clarity edge to edge. Nice and compact for hunting but still providing the zoom and smooth focus you expect for Vortex.

These binoculars have been great. They have stunning clarity and excellent light gathering capabilities, particularly in dim conditions. I also appreciated the solid build quality and find them well worth the price

Best glass I've ever owned!
I have loved Vortex products for a long time. After several years of having these binos, I can confidently say this is the best glass I've ever owned. Clear, crisp and they adjust for anyone to use. Most glass I've owned has faded over time and to date these have not. Will be buying exclusively Vortex from now on

High Quality Optic
I was wanting to upgrade my field glass so I decided to take advantage of a Vortex offer and purchase a pair of Viper HD 10x42 binos. I've been really pleased with them overall, but I guess I was hoping for a bit better clarity in the lenses and I'm not a huge fan of the 'locking' fine focus (mostly because I use the binoculars so infrequently that I forget about the feature and end up fumbling with the optics).

Great Glass for the price
I bought these to keep in my truck in the event I get curious to see something closer. I also own a pair of Razor 12x50 UHD's while these are not the same quality glass you would be surprised how nice the glass of for the price. Let's not forget about the Vortex Unlimited Warranty.

Great bino for the money, compares to much more expensive glass with other brands.

Broken eyecups
I have a pair of crossfire hd 10x42's, decent binocular but after a couple seasons the eyecups are broken. Just bought a pair of Viper hd's, will give them a try this upcoming season .

Best for your Buck
I just got my first pair of 12×50 Vipers. I loved my range finders that I previously bought. We will be getting another pair of vipers for my wife. She wants the 10×42. They are lite weight and crystal clear. Plus you can't beat the warranty

Binoculars for all around use
I purchased the 12x50 as I wanted a binocular that I could use for hunting and birding. I have a pair of 8x42 and a pair of 6. 5x32. I love the 8x42 for clear steady views of fast moving birds. The 6. 5 is great for bike and backpacking as they are small. The 12x50 has been amazing for glassing hillsides and occasional birding. I love that I can carry the 12x in the place of a spotting scope. This has drastically decreased my pack weight. It is a little shaky to use for birding but with a good rest or walking/shooting stick you can get clear views. The chest pack it comes with is terrible. I purchased a Sitka Mountain Optics case and it fits on the larger fastening loop. Highly recommend for hunting, wildlife spotting and for occasional birding.

Great Budget Scope
Great spotting scope for the range. It works perfect for the range out to and past 1,024yds. Good for the ranges without too far of a walk/hike. I would not want hike with this in the backcountry but there are other products for that use. All in all great product from a great company with solid reputation.

Awesome Product and Warranty!
As a birder/bird researcher, my binoculars are my most important piece of equipment, and they come with me everywhere in all conditions. I've been using Vortex viper 8x42 binoculars since high school, and they are awesome. I have always been happy with them, and have taken them on many adventures, including camping, backpacking, and intense field work. I finally had to utilize the warranty on them this spring, and I don't think I've ever had a better customer service experience. . .
I broke my binoculars in Costa Rica in April (probably from dropping them when I tripped and a custom strap gave out, the whole left side fogged from moisture on the inside). Contacted customer support and they sent me a shipping label free of charge and told me repair would take around 3 weeks.
I got them back in literally pristine new condition. They not only fixed the problem, but replaced all the lenses, the focus knob, the strap loops, and a handful of other components. They also gave me new lens caps, cleaned the binoculars free of charge, and applied extra waterproofing. The knobs are running incredibly smoothly and the glass is crystal clear. On top of all this, they even gently removed and returned the stickers I had on the binoculars!
None of this cost me a cent. I wanted to share this for anyone on the fence about buying binoculars or a scope from Vortex Optics - this is the kind of warranty you are getting!

Excellent value for the investment
Light weight but solid. Sleek but durable. Large eough for easy handling and adjustment but small enough to fit nicely in either a chest rig or small of the back when stialking. My opinion is they're best suited for an experienced user. Beginners wouldnt necessarily appreciate them and an expert may feel the galss is lacking but in the end, like all my Vortex purchases from Expert Voice, I'm very pleased.

Small package, big capability
I bought these having experience with both the Viper and the Razor lines and I was hoping for some good quality binos. When I took them out of the box, I was shocked at how compact and lightweight they are. I have been using a pair of Leupold marine 10x50s for the past few years and they did the job but were heavy and bulky. They didn't fit in the chest rug I just got from Eberlestock, so I thought I would try these, especially with the great sale price.
The glass is pretty good?not as clear as you will get with some higher end products, but they gather plenty of light and are clear almost all the way to the edges. The focus dial requires VERY minimal input which I find very useful. These are great binos.

Hunting and military use
Works great with good clarity. Weight and size is wonderful and works as advertised. Great light transmission in low light usage.

Sweet Glass with ease of mind included
I loved this pair of binos, I have taken them across the country for 3 seasons now and they have always performed amazingly every time I have needed them, but when they became life changing is when I was at the grand canyon and we where hiking down the canyon and ran into a grandfather, grandchild duo and they where admiring the surroundings well we stop next to them for a quick water break and a quick look thru the binos well from the corner of my eye I see the kid eyeball my binos and I offer him a look thru them and my wife hesitates and says " What if he drops them and they break" I turn around with a big smile and say "Don't worry Vortex had my Back there warranty is unmatched" that kid had the biggest smile looking thru those binos, the grandfather thanked me for making is grandkids day. can't wait for my next pair.

Excellent performance at a competitive price.
I recently had a chance to field test these for birding under a variety of difficult conditions, including viewing backlit shorebirds on water as well as warblers under dark understory situations. I was very impressed at the clarity and light transmission of the binoculars under both conditions, as well as under the more well-lit conditions I encountered. For a very competitive price, they deliver excellent performance and value.

Awesome Vortex Binos
I bought them for a trip to Alaska, land and sea. They really enhanced the experience. Worth every penny. These will not disappoint. Great field of view and the clarity was outstanding. Not your grandmothers old set of binoculars on the back porch.
