While looking for a digital microscope to do very tiny SMD electronics work with, I was mainly reading reviews and comparing actual screen resolution of the offers that bothered to list such important details. I appreciate the honesty of the seller in stating that this scope has lower resolution when using as a USB cam on a PC, and in spite of that, it is a much clearer and easier to see image than I had expected. My purchase decision was a balance of features for the price, with comparable scopes with any better resolution costing nearly $100 usd or more.
The only issue I had was that the clip on the stand which holds the scope is very fragile and mine was damaged in shipping, but it was easy enough for me to attach the scope using rubber bands, and I am enjoying using it anyhow, so it's not worth dropping from a 5 star review, since all else is much better than expected.

I was surprised how much I like this, it is worth the price and we have a blast with it. Yeah it’s not going to be a super high tech expensive microscope but it still does amazing things! I liked the picture and video feature a lot and it’s easy to zoom in. I really like I was able to look at a sore on my back. It’s fun to look at hair follicles and insects.

his Digital Wireless Microscope has a USB port and a WiFi adapter so that I can use it on a computer or a smartphone. That wide range of supported devices makes it versatile and suitable for use in fieldwork, where I may find myself far from a computer. This model also has good magnification, going from 50x to 1000x, in theory.
In practice, it requires special software to work. I am using Windows 10, and I was able to download the software (camera.zip) from their website mentioned in the manual. The software is portable and does not need any installation. The IOS app was good too, and I was able to take pictures and videos from zoomed samples. It also has excellent lighting. Bright light means you can make out more detail and get better images. The only thing I don’t like is that it requires repeated calibration with its measuring tool.
You should not expect a high professional microscope proficiency from this little device. It does the job, and I think it can be a nice gift for kids and older people who cannot see well.
Pros
Wireless
Good magnification
Wide range of compatible devices
Cons

So there I was... in my lab, granulating pulverized limestone in little soluble prills. They looked good, they were strong, and they were soluble - hitting allt he important points. But I wondered what they looked like under magnification. Well, $42ish bucks and a few days later, I knew the answer to that question. They were rough and not very spherical. I doesn't really matter, but I hey got a new toy and my curiosity satisfied.
Seriously though, this is a great microscope for the price. The bluetooth connection to my phone makes it really useful. Now, we're not talking science lab magnifications, but I bet your kid could make one heck of a science fair project with this bad boy. Totally worth it, would buy another immediately if I needed to.
**Update: I did, in fact, by another one. I have it at home and have been looking at tandom things under magnification for months now. Two Enthusiastic Thumbs up!

This has stepped up my numismatic game quite a bit. I spend hours looking at coins through this scope and it performs very well. Picture quality is good. The base is prone to scratches while sliding hundredss of coins across it. I don't expect the printed grid to last much longer, but that's okay. Reasonably, I'm putting this thing thru its paces and I completely expected this to happen. Overall, I'm pleased with it.

Look at the pix I took just playing 10 min with it, this isn’t a microscope, this is a high end micro camera which you can take on a daily basis, By the way is supper compact, provably need a good leather holster for it, but boy oh boy can you take close ups at the average random things, and find beauty in life once more. Picture and clarity is stunning!!! LED’s seem to be color corrected, make anything look just right, battery lasts what seems to be forever, and I’m just scratching a surface! You owe it to yourself to try, its not that expencive
Major Kudos to the crew that re-designed it, first one wasn’t my favorite, but the face lift that you did to it, was perfect!
for what its worth

Easy to set up and start. I have all apple products and worked perfectly for my iphone and ipad as well. Needs some getting used to on navigating on the areas that you don't see but ( I refer to skin) once you get used to it works pretty good.

I purchased this microscope primarily to view the leaves, flowers, pollen etc in my garden and the critters that live in and on them.
Firstly, the order arrived the next day, less than 24 hours after the order was first placed & I was able to use it right out of the box after downloading the app.
The image quality is very nice and sharp and, importantly, you can capture images directly from the app without touching the microscope that would cause the image to be blurry.
The eight LEDs are very helpful in darker areas and you can adjust the brightness from your smartphone too.
It's easy to use, captures nice quality images and is very versatile. Very pleased overall.

It's not really a microscope, there is no zoom, only a focus. However I bought it to check pins on a CPU and it served its purpose.
Vendor replaced the stand right away, much better, 5 stars!
