Xgazer OpticsProfessional 8x25 Magnifying Point View Compact Binoculars for Bird Watching, Hunting & Fishing Outdoor Waterproof Small Binocular with Soft Case, Neck Harness Strap, Cleaning Cloth

The quality of the image they provide is outstanding. You can pay more than twice as much for the other brands binoculars, and some of them would probably be a bit better, but they would only be a bit better, not twice as good.The 8x25 are perfect for me for birding, sight seeing, sporting events and stuff like that. They are a good balance of magnification,wide field of view, and brightness (exit pupil). The higher magnification 10x25 would also be good for these things and i do have them as well, but you give up some field of view with the higher magnification. The extra field of view is helpful for following birds that tend to move around. It is easier to find the birds, and keep them in view. Higher magnification also means more image shake, the 8 power is easier to hold still than 10 power. The larger exit pupil makes viewing easier, even in bright daylight, because you can see the full image circle, even if your eyes aren't perfectly lined up behind the eye pieces.I have eye glasses and these binoculars work great with them, I have no trouble at all seeing the full image circle. I just fully retract the eye cups with a twist, and I'm good to go.The eye cups make viewing with out my glasses very comfortable, I just have to adjust the diopter.They are a medium to full sized binocular, but I find them light enough to cary around my neck all day. Lighter than the others ,but not quite as bright at dusk or for looking at the night sky.They are nitrogen purged and waterproof and fogproof, so they won't fog up, on the inside, and you can use them in the rain with no worries. If they get dunked in the river when you are canoeing, they should be fine.All in all, I think that for the money they are excellent quality, and being nitrogen purged at this price makes them even a better buy.

The Xgazer 10x25 Compact Binoculars appear to be a quality product, and the company's Life-Time guarantee assures me that they stand behind their product. I just received these a day ago, but have given them a workout and compared them to other binoculars I own, and found them to be exactly what I was looking for.They are sealed and waterproof, lenses are coated, and they operate smoothly. As shown in the photo they are not as compact as my old 9x20 Pentax, but they are as clear or clearer. They don't have the field of view of my Nikon or Leupold 8x42's or 10x50's, nor should they, and they are much more compact. Maybe not quite as sharp as those 4 and 5 hundred dollar pairs either, but for about 60 bucks they are more than adequate.I'm building a Get-Home-Bag, not to exceed 20 pounds (including bag) for 30 or more items, for the first 12 to 72 hours after an emergency, or disaster, so ever ounce counts. At 11oz. these are sturdy without being too heavy and have earned a place in my kit. Why binoculars in a Get-Home-Bag? 2 reasons: to look over routes of travel for safety before proceeding, and to look over situations at a distance without being observed, before getting closer, to decide whether to join, or avoid, others.

When I opened the box, the product was missing the advertised lens covers. I emailed the company and they were super friendly and professional. Mailed the lens covers to me, took less than a week. I have since used my new binoculars for bird watching. Easy to use and lightweight. I am very satisfied with the quality and consider these to be an excellent value.

Ton of quality for the price...used them scouting for ducks...easy to adjust, bright and sharp.

My husband loves these!

lightweight and great clarity for a small unit-easy to carry on hikes and surprisingly clear for a 10x25.Well worth the money.

Great for the money

These binoculars are awesome!! I have used other small binoculars that my hunting buddies have, but these are the best I have used by far! Super clear, just like Vortex scopes. I have large binoculars that are not as clear. These will be my goto optics for hunting from now on!!
