there is no comparison they are poor quality
load of rubbish
Absolutely rubbish
The flap should be a bit longer
Not fit for purpose
With is being on the small side
Very poor magnification
No magnification
Just like using the naked eye does not magnify anything
Trying to keep binoculars still using two hands is problematic whilst monocular much easier
that is even if it fits as in my situation because I have a Galaxy A56 they haven't accounted for the lenses protruding
All lenses are plane
