Shipped in a timely manner from Votrex. These are perfect binoculars for a sub-$500 set of eyes. I wish I could say I was surprised by their quality, but I expected this from Vortex. They have great glass and let in a lot of light. I highly recommend.

Clear glass perfect for hunting east of the Mississippi. Weight isn't too heavy. I don't love the bag/rig for it. It isn't bad just don't love it. But hey you don't buy them for the carrier

The Diamondback® HD 15x56s are powerful, clear, and sturdy. They're great for long-range glassing, especially with a tripod, and I think they're a great value for the performance.

The Diamondback® HD 10x42s are clear, bright, and easy to use. They're lightweight, focus fast, and feel great in hand. For the price, I think they're a fantastic value.

I'm an ornithologist. Sometimes I don't need my big expensive binoculars. These are great for walking trails in the neighborhood and also for birders who want a great value. The weight, clarity, and build of these optics are incredible. I've recommended them to many birders.

Really good binoculars, super good clarity, easy to use, feel very high quality. We've used them for both land-based activities while hiking, and on the water, and love them for all uses. I don't think there are any downsides for this pair of binoculars at this price point. I think they're a great choice for anyone looking for some great binos!

These 12×50 Diamondback HD bins shine with sharp, high-contrast images-even in low light-while offering a wide field of view and rugged, balanced construction. The rubber armoring and VIP warranty give me confidence they'll last through rough outings. They're an excellent mid?level optic that punches above its weight.

Had a cheap set of Binos from Walmart and needed some better magnification but couldn't justify spending a few hundred dollars. These actually perform way better than I thought and have become a favorite at the house and in the field. Carrying bag was a nice surprise as well, plan to use them all hunting season this year.

I use this for work and for hunting as well. They're light weight and super durable. They get tossed around in both personal vehicles and work vehicle.

Glass is good enough, the housing/ build of the binoculars is rugged, and the 'rubberized' coating makes them easy to use in any weather conditions.

Use these for work and they have held up pretty good. They have been dropped and thrown around. Glass is pretty good but not thr best I have ever used. You can't beat the warranty with Vortex. It is top notch. I had somethings break on these and they either fix or replace them. Vortex has amazing customer service.

Glasses work well but you cannot zoom in. Sturdy well built.

Great glass, holding up well. But it's from Vortex, so you knew that. Decided on the 8x42 due to the slight improvement in low light. Worth losing a bit of magnification.

Incredible pricing and warranty
By Shebadog
Wow...just bought these after spending a month on reviews and trying out several pairs. I'm not an expert but learned alot and love these...nice sturdy build, bright, focus great from side to side..no blurring or fish eye. Best warranty on the market and I read all warranties on the better brands...nothing to match including zweiss. Was torn between 8x42, 10x42 and 10x50. After salesman let me take them outside the 10x50 won my eyes. Gave me just a little more magnification without compromisi...
