Why use binoculars when this pocket telescope can see miles away?

If binoculars are the flip phone of sightseeing, this handheld telescope is the iPhone. One eye, one hand, and miles of crystal-clear viewing packed into a pocket-sized gadget. It even lets you take zoomed-in phone photos that look straight out of National Geographic.

Imagine spotting a fawn you never would’ve seen otherwise or, better yet, a robin’s nest high up in a tree because you have a close-up view in the palm of your hand. It’s cheaper than you think, too. This HD monocular telescope is only $39.99 while supplies last (reg. $54.99).

Get the best views all summer long

These binoculars have 50×60 magnification, allowing you to see several miles away. If your binoculars have something like 10x magnification, you’re probably maxing out at about 3,000 feet away and missing out on long-distance sightings—rare birds and 12-point bucks. They’re also great for stargazing.

You can also mount the telescope against your phone’s camera lens and use it to take pictures. Snap rare wildlife shots while camping, or take it to a concert and get some close-ups of your favorite musicians. Tell everyone you took those amazing pictures with your phone—and your portable telescope. 

Enjoy HD viewing through BAK4 prisms glass with fully coated optics. Those sciencey terms simply mean you’ll get bright, clear images, even in low-light conditions like at dawn or dusk. 

Get your telescope for bird watching, hunting, camping, concerts, or whatever else you want to zoom in on before we sell out ahead of summertime: $39.99 (reg. $54.99).
