Andonstar AD246S-P HDMI Digital Microscope with 7'' Screen, 4000x 3 Lens 2160P UHD Video Record, Coin Microscope for Error Coins, Biological Microscope Kit for Adults, Prepred Slides

Amazing bit of kit for the price. My partner needs it for his Koi keeping and checking for parasites.

Very pleased with this digital microscope. Yes, at higher magnifications it's a challenge to focus but patience will be rewarded with excellent results. Don't forget you're up against the physics of light diffraction so up to and beyond 2,000x magnification you're not going to see any improvement. Linked to a bigger HDMI monitor makes its use relaxing. The remote prevents any shake when capturing an image. I bought a couple of higher quality objectives and they made some difference but only for pixel peepers. The JPEG's produced are impressive and can be further processed (including AI - Topaz for example) to yield some very high quality results. I'm using this with biological slides rather than top lit options. Worth the effort to use.

My review comes from the point of view of someone who uses this to repair and replace parts on electronic devices.So I've wanted one of these types of microscopes for a while as i've gotten into repairing video game consoles with various issues and a magnify glass or the cheap USB Microscope cameras ain't cutting it and have become a frustration to use. Obviously because i'm not a professional and not making a living from it i'm not going to drop at least a £500 to £1000 pounds on this type of equipment at a hobbyist level.So it was packed great and had plenty of material and instructions as well as plenty of configuration choices. I think the only thing i didn't realise was that from the packaging this was mostly aimed at kids, but for what i need it for it will do and exceed.I followed the instructions and found the quality of everything apart from the screen and lens to be quite poor. The base is quite solid and even, the main support arm that contains the USB Lamps and holds the main metal pole to be ok. The most awkward part I found was the USB Lamps that plug into the side, they were quite hard to plug in, either they are a female USB Connector that works both ways or it's a poor fitment into the part, so be warned if you read this and then assemble it. The main parts that holds the screen and camera i have found to be the most poor quality of the entire thing. Although it's made out of a good metal material it fits quite poorly into the main plastic body of the equipment. There's this awful amount of small travel if you are repairing something and slightly knock it when you are repairing something which doe's become frustrating. I Have tried a different and longer screw to hopefully get it into a better locked position and will try some plumbers tape to keep in more solid in place, but might as well consider maybe looking for an arm replacement of some type instead?The best part and the worthwhile cost of getting one of these has been the screen and the camera, i absolutely can not argue that this gives of a fantastic and clear image when working on anything especially with the USB Lights that are supplied. I would highly recommend this to my fellow amatuer repairers who need something affordable and easy to use. But i would definitly consider modifying this to suit my needs better for what i do (longer and wider base, a new arm of some type)

Easy to assemble, clear instructions and easy to use. Produced clear images on screen, having remote made it easy to capture images onto memory card and make adjustments. I like the way you can adjust magnification by raising or lowering platform and fine tune with focus 'wheel' in stand.

On one level, the build quality of this item is atrocious, but the picture quality is very good considering the price.As a poor person’s microscope, considering that I paid only about £100 (with additional deals and discounts), I was quite impressed with the picture quality.But would have sent it back immediately if I’d paid full price.The plastic housing and joints are very poor indeed, and they wobble sometimes making it hard to focus accurately. If you can imagine a cheap toy from a Christmas cracker meets some reasonable optics, and a pretty good image sensor, then that’s what this is.I get that they built this for a price, but the usability trade off will annoy some people for sure. But given than an all metal version would be 3-4 times the price, some others will just live with it.In many ways it such a pity because the image sensor, the output and the software really make this thing quite exceptional for the money.So if you can live with the poor build quality of the exterior and the wobbly joints, this is pretty good value for money (with discounts) and is considerably cheaper than something constructive out of metal alloy.

Amazing product 👌

Great gift for my science-mad son. You get a clear image on the screen and he finds it very interesting.

The designer forgot the fact that the proper working of the microscope relies on a stable stage that does not shake.The designer forgot the fact that a fine tuning knob is required on the microscope.They further omitted the ability to adjust the brightness of the incidence light, and only gave this ability to the 2 arm LED lights.The whole thing is shaky, so even if you are adjusting the focus, you lose the region of interest.It is not worth that amount they are selling, so do not purchase. It is better to go for other microscopes with stable solid stages.

After getting a terrible ‘kid’ microscope that ended up in the garbage, I found this one and we have been using it so often that we leave it set up on my kitchen island. While I originally purchased this microscope for my 6 and 8 yr old grandsons who visit weekly, the digital screen is so useful that I find myself using it almost daily for things like- gluing small parts together, finally sorting and cleaning a collection of micro shells I have collected over the years, cleaning fossils I had been meaning to get to for years, etc.Bonus- The controls are simple and not so finicky that the kids can’t experiment with them themselves and It’s sturdy enough that I’m not worried about the kids breaking parts off.I haven’t used the higher level microscope adapter yet- but I’m sure as the kids get a bit older we will break it out for slides and such. For now, I am so happy to have this microscope with its handy digital screen for use in our daily lives. I will upload some images of our set up soon.

Not really good

This is quite excellent value for money. It is still a bit of a kids' microscope but it does an excellent job and I use it for informal lab pics just to give me an idea of things.

Commander pour les 10 ans de ma fille elle est ravie une bonne qualité d'image très léger et simple d'utilisation pour elle

Sehr schönes, einfach zu bedienendes, hochauflösendes und von der Bildschirm Größe sehr angenehmes Digitales Mikroskop. Erleichert wirklich vieles im Microsoldering Bereich.
