TOMLOV P10 Microscope for Adults Kids, Portable 100X Illuminated Jewelers Loupe, Handheld Coin Magnifier with Light for Collectors, Pocket Trichome Magnifying Glass, Digital Microscope with 2" Screen

This unit provides really great images which you can save on the included Micro-SD card then transfer to your computer for viewing on your large monitor (if you dare lol). A nice feature is that you can remove the clear ring around the bottom of the scope (simply twist and pull it off) so you can obtain the correct focus on non flat/curved items like when looking at a splinter on your hand or foot. One thing this unit is not good for is examining PC boards from the top (component) side of the board because the components stick up from the board making it impossible to get the scope close enough to the board surface to get in focus. It is good however for inspection of the back side (the flat soldered side) of PC boards where there are no components that interfere with the scope getting close enough to get good focus. It's also very handy for examining splinters or cuts you may get from time to time because it provides it's own light source so you can really see which way the splinter went in so you can determine how to remove it with the least amount of damage to the surrounding skin. it's also great for inspecting cuts to make sure you removed any dirt from the wound. The photo you see in my review is of a common "banana fruit gnat" that show up a couple of days after bringing home bananas without rinsing them properly. These gnats are super tiny, but I managed to trap a tired one under the scope and took this photo under low power base magnification. Really an outstanding value which has become my everyday go-to magnifying device because it just works. BTW- it plugs in to USB-C to recharge and includes an 8GB micro-SD card for photo storage/transfer to laptop/PC.

I'm actually quite impressed with what all it can do considering that it's only twenty-four bucks (at the time of this review)! I also realize that you can now get microscopes that are similar to this one that have 1,000X magnification, and even 1,600X magnification. And I probably will eventually. But what I was looking for was something with 100X magnification that I didn't have to strain to see. Well, this certainly did the trick. And I really like that it's rechargeable via a USB-C cable. Of course, it comes with a USB-C to USB-A cable, but it CAN be charged with a USB-C to USB-C cable too. It also comes with a lanyard, an 8GB micro SD card, some slides, and a user manual. The manual is even nice as well. It's quite detailed and pretty easy to understand. When you hook it up to a computer, three options come up on the microscope's screen. Storage, which will let you download pictures to the computer from the microscope. Charging Mode, which obviously just charges the microscope. And then there's PC Camera, which is for showing whatever the microscope is looking at, on the computer screen. If you are using it on a Windows computer, you open the Windows Camera program (or app) to get it to come up. And if it doesn't come right up, then there should be something that you can click on at the top right side of the screen that is for changing the camera. Also, for anyone who is wondering, you CAN record video when the microscope is hooked up to a PC. Just keep in mind though, that whatever photos and/or videos you take while it's hooked up to the computer, can only save to the computer and not to the microscope. As far as Mac/iMac goes, from what I can tell from the instructions, you have to use "Photo Booth." Which apparently shows a mirror image of what the microscope is looking at. However, the recorded images should not be mirrored. So it looks to me like, you can use the microscope with Mac/iMac, but it would probably be better to use it with a PC if possible. Anyway, I guess that's about it. Well, one more thing. The microscope is not waterproof, and in the instructions they warn to try not to drop it. So in other words, it probably can't take that much abuse. But that's not a big deal, right? I mean, it costs how much again? Lol. But okay, NOW I'm finished. And I'm going to go ahead and give the TOMLOV P10 Microscope a score of 5... out of, 5.

I loved this little hand held microscope and recommended it to some of my friends. What's cool is that it has a light and you can take pictures so you can keep track of your blooms and it's so powerful you can see the spider mites on the plant which is something that you dont ever want to see but you can spot it early and treat the plant if need be.

Only fell short of 5 stars because as simple as the product may be, no “manual”. I ordered thinking this was adjustable magnification (my fault), went through the buttons, nothing. 10 minutes on google looking around only to realize my mistake. Not a huge deal, but yknow. Aside from that, light is adjustable. It is bright. Screen is clear, magnifies nicely but you do basically need to be right on top of whatever you’re looking at. So the sample cards they give you (nice touch by the way), will absolutely come in nice. With that said, I’m not too confident in its use for living plants, my application, or really anything alive unless absolutely stationary. Just not a big lens to be dealing with movement. Does connect to the PC easily, and I do love that it came with a memory card so it’s out of the box ready except maybe the charge, I plugged it in when I first got it without checking that. All in all for the money if it fits your needs, I’d say it’s worth the money. I do collect coins I come across, and old bills so I guess I could hang onto it for that, but for my purchase purpose? I probably wasted my money, but my daughters are little and they always like new toys, so I have some options. Not one to return a decent item if the only noticeable flaw stemmed from my own mistake speed reading the description

Works way better then a jewelers loop. The magnification zooms pretty far in and the bright lcd screen produces a almost HD image. The built in light is super convenient too! I haven’t used other electronic scopes so I can’t compare how this one is to others but I love how easy it is to upload photos from the to my phone. I have a type c usb iPhone and I just take a double sided type c charger and plug one end into this scope. I then open the pictures like I’m reviewing them and plug the other end into my phone. It then gives you the option to move the photos to the phones storage easy peasy!

For the $ , and how well it works. I hope the next model is sharper an more clear. There is no Lenz cover that's a star! Ez to use I didn't even use the instructions. To a computer it's fine. I'm tryn to transfer to my fone. This this is way kool for the...

Amazing microscope for looking at my plant, takes amazing pics but can be a little hard with the tactile button. Highly recommend setting up a stool for steady clear shots. Make sure to change your setting from 1M to 16M for best quality.

Idk how this got bad reviews. This is a god send for checking if your cards is real or fake. Super easy screen to read and it even comes with the SD card! It uploads super easy to the PC for pictures and has all the features for cheap! Great product if you're into the TCG market and need to check your cards fast at a show.
