About Carson MicroFlip 100x-250x LED and UV Lighted Pocket Microscope
Overall Feedback:
72% positive
76% liked the easy focus adjustment, but 24% found it difficult
While adjusting the focus and power of the scope, I need a steady hand and stable platform.
Even after installing it on a stable heavy table, the magnification was not stable.
It is difficult to tell what I am looking at as the slightest movement moves the object in and out of view.
82% appreciated the long battery life
The microscope comes with a pre-installed AA battery.
The design choice of using a common AA size battery is great. Previous pocket scopes I owned used tiny watch batteries which was a major hassle.
I did not mention anything about the battery life of the product.
85% praised the rugged and durable design, while 15% experienced breakage
The microscope construction is sturdy.
I noticed that the device has taken a slight beating and still works at 100%. I could replace it for the cost of coffee, lunch, and gas, which shows that it is durable.
The product is excellent and at an excellent price.
I am disappointed that the more expensive model is not as well constructed as the cheaper version.
79% found it easy to use, but 21% found it difficult
I am satisfied with the clarity and ease of use of the product, along with its two strong lights (UV and LED).
The microscope has nice, genuine lenses and is relatively easy to use.
The unit is extremely easy to use and apply both at home and in the field. It's portable and can be used by anyone at any skill level.
The microscope is easy to use and works well, even for an 8-year-old and his mom.

74% praised the high-resolution images, while 26% experienced pixelation
For the price, the picture and viewing quality are exceptional.
The attachment for pictures on my iPhone is a great tool.
When I capture the image correctly, it is surprisingly crisp, at least closer to the 100x magnification.
At 250x magnification, it's a bit hard to look at, but the photos come out alright.

70% praised the reliable led light source
I am happy with the clarity and ease of use of the microscope, along with its two strong lights (UV and LED).
The LED light is of very good quality.
87% liked the compact and portable design, while 13% found it bulky
Another advantage is the ability to carry it around.
I am satisfied with the resolution and portability of the device. It allows me to explore the natural world and is easy to carry around.
I find the device easy to use with genuine lenses, it's a small plastic rectangle.
I did not mention anything specific about the portability of the lab-handheld-digital-microscopes.
79% appreciated the high zoom power, though 21% found it limited
At the highest zoom level, I can see the smallest human cells and some microorganisms with the microscope.
I appreciate the smartphone adaptor clip that comes with the microscope, which allows me to take pictures of my work and add additional zoom via the phone lens.
I highly recommend this particular version for its best zoom in a pocket microscope.
I gave the product a 5-star rating for its zoom level.
