Apexel 100x Mini Microscope for Smartphone Camera, Lighted Portable LED Lens with USB Charging Cable

Pretty good gadget for what it is! Its perfect for my mineral and crystal collecting hobby. Also perfect for looking at silver and gold jewellery markings and stamps.

It works

Difficult to align on your camera- make sure you're using the correct camera as well- must be the wide-angle one! But once its on, the picture quality is amazing! These images are miniature orchids, and the crown of a £1 coin.

Size ok, ease of use ok but very limited useability.Not suitable for general use for a variety of samples.

This is the 4th macro lens I've ordered for my son, unfortunately the last 3 had to be returned as they fell far short of their promised function. Thank goodness my search is over, this works a treat and is going to make his project so much easier. I'm going to order one for myself. It's probably a good idea to purchase a tripod to go with it as all macro shots can be difficult to capture without blur, unless you have an incredibly steady hand.Additional info:I just received the one I ordered for myself and think it's great, I can get decent magnification without using a tripod but if I was working on an artistic project I'd probably need one as my hand gets shaky after a few minutes. This actually does what it says on the tin, and comes with a cute little lens cloth. The slider lens cover doubles up as the light switch. Lovely, compact design and sturdy clip.The only criticism if any, is that it would be nice if it came with a little pouch to keep it in but that's neither here nor there in regard to the functionality and design. 10 out of 10.

This is great, it definitely works, very easy to attach to phone once you know which one your main camera lens is. It must be flat against the object and as close as possible. It's great fun wandering around finding things to examine up close. Photos are pyrite, lavender flowers, agate slice and spider. Highly recommend.

It works OK but the magnification is only about the same as a x30 hand lens, so it's a bit disappointing.

Really like a microscope lens! I bought it for scalp skin photo protocol for my trichologist and it is doing it's job. By the way, it has a led light !Also I spent two or three hours looking to different stuff in my flat with this lens)))P. S. : I've got a gift card with this order and seller sent me a lenses portable kit!! 😍 just unpacked it, but already exited !
