Review: 11 feet 6 inches focus distance - These binoculars represent the optimal choice within their price range. They are compatible with eyeglasses and, despite their lightweight design, provide an expansive field of view, surpassing other models I have evaluated. The accompanying carrying case is of high quality, and the binoculars themselves possess a balanced weight that minimizes hand tremor. Their optical clarity is commendable given the price point, making them an excellent entry-level option for budget-conscious consumers. My objective was to identify the best performing binoculars under $100, with a preference for even lower cost. I believe they would serve as an excellent gift, particularly due to their ability to resolve avian subjects at distances under 12 feet, a significant improvement over most budget alternatives that typically require distances exceeding 15 feet.
Review: Great for bird watching - I have an older pair of binoculars that are more powerful and also a lot heavier. My wife and I recently got into bird watching and so I decided to get a new one. This is much lighter and very easy to use. It has lens caps that are hinged for the bottom lenses and one that attaches to the strap for the top lenses. That means they are always there and while they might get in the way, they are difficult to lose. The instructions are somewhat goofy, expecially the part about the diopter for adjustment if your eyes are not exactly the same or if you wear glasses. In my experience, the only one called a diopter is the one you can adjust on the right eyepiece. The instructions call both that and also the normal focusing ring the diopters which is confusing. The instructions are also a bit too 'cutesy" for me. I would skip the cutesy part and make the instructions clear, but maybe that's just me. In general the binocs are great and a great deal. They are high quality, waterproof, lightweight and easy to use. You could pay a lot more for the same level of quality and if you are looking for birds these are just the power and field of view that you need. I can highly recommend these.

## Features

- Through Calm and Clarity - Mornings take on a different kind of calm when you lift the Hontry binoculars and bring the world closer. With 10x magnification, the view feels steady and real—colors stay gentle, shapes stay true, and even distant wings or quiet movement in the grass seem closer to you, like the day is quietly unfolding at its own pace.
- When the Journey Calls – Some days it’s a cruise morning wrapped in mist, other days it’s a trail after the rain. These waterproof binoculars stay clear through it all, and if they touch the water, they float back like they belong there, waiting for you to keep going.
- Rugged and Reliable – The rubber body feels familiar, like something made to be used and trusted. It sits steady in your hands through wind or cold, ready for adults who spend their weekends outside, chasing sunrises and open air more than comfort.
- Comfort All Day Long – The eyecups twist up gently, meeting your face like a soft rhythm. You can wear glasses or not—it never feels in the way. Hours pass easily when you’re lost in bird watching, sport watching, or simply tracing the horizon until dusk.
- Thoughtful for Every Nature Lover – There’s something simple and kind about sharing a view. Whether it’s for someone who loves bird watching, exploring trails, or finding quiet places, these binoculars feel like a small way to connect with what matters most.
- For Places You Love to See – From the quiet roads of Yellowstone to the golden edges of Yosemite and the long drives along the Pacific Coast, every mile holds a view worth slowing down for. Keep a pair in your glove box, ready for those road trips when the light hits just right and you can’t help but stop and look.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for bird watching
*by J***R on June 26, 2023*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great choice for youngsters..A decent, usable pair
*by C***R on August 3, 2022*

I was looking for a sensibly priced, usable binocular for my 8 yo Grandson. In tool terms, not a Festool, but not Harbor Freight either. And if this were a tool, it could be Bosch, maybe even Makita. Nice for $47. It does what its supposed to do without obvious defects. There are no 'double images' from poor collimation. No obvious chromatic aberration, even though not ED glass. Smooth focus wheel. All of these BTW were problems with the $64 Celestron Outland X I tried first - and am returning. Mine came with a manual, and there is a 1/4-20 socket for tripod adapter when you unscrew the front center cap. Why four stars? Abysmal poor shipping packaging - the factory box was slipped into an unpadded plastic Amazon bag. I expected the worst - but all was ok Hopefully, you will be as fortunate.
