Gskyer Telescope 600x90mm AZ Astronomical Refractor Telescope for Adults Astronomy, German Technology Scope

This telescope is great. It is light weight and super easy to assemble. It has a bluetooth camera shutter and phone mount which are great. At first I had problems with seeing anything through it, but then I soon realized what the problem was. It required the full cover to be removed, not just the obvious one. After I figured that out I have been able to enjoy stargazing and moon watching. I absolutely love it as do my children. The images I provided are just a few I have taken through the telescope with my phone using the provided phone mount and the 10mm eye lense.

I’m really impressed with this telescope. It did take me a little bit of time to figure out how to use it but it is my first time ever having one so that’s to be expected. Once I learned how to properly use it though I am obsessed. It’s easy to assemble and the phone adapter with remote to take pictures is wonderful. I do however wish the stand was a bit taller I’m only 5’2” and it’s a bit short for me but that’s my only complaint on it. If I were to look through the scope the whole time it would cause back pains but I put my phone up to it and I’m able to view things just as well if not maybe even better.

Now at first I thought it was broken or I didn't assemble it properly as I kept looking out and it was just pitch black. But then I removed the Barlow lens and just used the regular 10mm one and found something like a star or moon and adjusted the telescope to focus on it.I then removed and fixed the Barlow lens in front of the other lens and bam! There was the moon, you can even spot a detail or two. I'm yet to explore this with the phone but so far, I'm sold!

First time getting a telescope since I was little. I searched around and decided to go with the model and I wasn’t disappointed. Brings back great memories from childhood searching for stars and with the great feature that it works well with seeing wildlife during the day. The free phone adapter was a plus and I was surprised at how well my old iPhone worked on there. And even better I can zoom more with my phone and get a better picture. Still need practice with the focusing, it takes some skill. Definitely looking forward to using this more on a very clear night. Comes with many parts and directions can be a little confusing but I followed the pictures and everything went together smoothly, only takes about 10-15 mins to assemble.

I wanted a quality telescope that was affordable. This telescope definitely fit the bill. A good range of objectives and viewing magnification. I was able to look at Jupiter, visibly seeing four of its moons. I also observed Saturn with its rings. Completely awesomeThe controls are a little less than stout and it takes a gentle touch to make the corrections needed with a fast moving sky. The smart phone mount works very well, but the shutter remote was iffy. I found it easier to just lightly touch the screen to take the picture.I will be mounting mine on a stronger camera tripod in the future, but it's a great telescope for an intermediate viewer or beginner for viewing larger objects like the moon or skiers on Mt. Hood.
