Excellent magnifier
Works as intended, and this will even take good pictures if a memory card is properly placed within the unit before using . Merci

Surprised by quality, can't verify if 500x, well worth the $20 I spent
Pros:-works well, did as advertised, didn't seem overly boastful in their literature, and ended up being way less of a gimmick as I was expecting this to be at this price.-LCD display is not a gimmicky display. I don't know the resolution on it, but the images on it look sharp. You can easily use it in the field to look at things. There is way more than enough pixels at work here to retain details of the thing you're looking at and is clearly IPS quality. It's really a nice screen. Surprisingly nice given the price of this is like $25 (though this clearly almost always has coupons on it, and I snagged mine for $20), even at $25, what's on offer here is amazing.-Battery life is pretty decent as well. Easily been able to break the 1hr of use mark on this thing and doesn't take TOO long to recharge.-Light Ring, very nice and very usefulCons:-image quality when viewed on a PC or reviewing the files. That's where things start to fall apart, and you realize, 2MP is a little too low. It's usable, but as soon as you zoom past like 150% of the image size, things become a pixelated mess.-Snapshot, the button is flush with the edges, could use a BUMP to it, or slight raise, since the power button is recessed on the front-Not the most intuitive, since I had to hit the manual to figure out how to adjust the brightness of the LED lights. Also there's really no settings here. No settings for formatting SD card, no settings for LCD brightness, which I get, and I don't. To change the LED Brightness you hold down the PLUS OR MINUS BUTTON.-Zooming in and button responsiveness. This might be due to the buttons being flush on the device's rim, but sometimes when I pushed the button and thought I heard the "CLICK" of it being actuated, nothing would happen. Also, until a few days ago, after like a week with this thing, I just learned there was a fourth zoom level.-Zooming. I think doesn't have DIGITAL ZOOM, when you "ZOOM" in, what you're doing is only affecting the view finder's zoom. Since I took pictures of the same area on my phone cover, at every zoom level, the output file looked nearly identical save for some minor human hand movement error. Meaning the "ZOOM" is only for viewfinder mode, which is kind of useful. 1x helps you get to what you're trying to look at and then when you're in the area, you can get a closer look with the zoom levels.-Orientation, due to how large the "WELL" and recess is for the camera and LED light ring, it's sometimes hard to hone in on your subject, also due to that large indent, means your subject you're over needs to be larger than the 3in Diameter lens area. Since this is set to the focal distance. Meaning for smaller items like when I looked at a bottle cap, you're basically hovering the device above the smaller objects, and manually focusing that way.-Thought smaller circle was a hole, to loop a cord through or a carabiner, to latch it to backpacks, a kid's wrist, etc. NOPE, magnifying glass. That was a bummer. Since being an adult the former wish would be more practical.While there seems to be a lot of "CONS", the reality is, at this price, I was 100% ready to accept it as a scam or not as advertised. For the most part, this didn't make boastful claims, and does technically execute everything as advertised. Again, can't 100% confirm 500x magnification, but it let me see the gross lattice work that is human flesh. Which you can't see with the naked eye, or even a magnifying glass. I think this toy is actually functional beyond the "CHILD" age range that this advertises as, and can be used as they show, coin checking, or even Chip on a PCB checking. Just wished the buttons weren't so flush and were easier to press. At 20-25 USD, 100% recommend it.

Unfortunately, this is a product I cannot recommend to any potential purchaser
The images used as advertisement of the product are EXTREMELY misleading. The device is fixed focus, and so to obtain any reasonable image on the display, the product must be right on top of the object being viewed. You have no magnification if holding the device at a distance from the target, because the unit doesn't focus. Another drawback is the buttons have multiple functions, and so unless you use it all the time, you may very well forget how to operate it. In the end, I cannot recommend the product to anyone.

Functional and a great tool for any collector
Amazing little magnifier, especially for someone who collects coins and money. Good for anything you wanna see up close.

nice but limited
I was hoping this would be something like a digital magnifying glass, but it’s more like a digital microscope. The view angle is super tiny—about 1/8 of an inch—so even for reading small print, it feels a bit limited. That said, it’s great for checking out really fine details up close, which is nice! You pretty much have to rest it right on whatever you’re looking at, though—lifting it even a smidge makes everything blurry. I’m sure it’s perfect for what it’s designed to do, but I wish it had a bit more flexibility and a wider range of viewing options.
