Vinteam Telescope for Beginners, Portable 400/70mm Refractor Telescope Kit with Eyepieces, 3X Barlow Lens, Tripod

Good quality telescope from Vietnam.You get everything you will need for this telescope in the pack 10mm & 25mm eyepiece, 3x Barlow lens, finder scope, Accessory tray, tripod, phone adapter and bag which can hold everything which is a nice touchThis is a entry level/beginner telescope but I would say only as far as setting it up which I found very easy I was up and running in no time, without even really reading the manual BUT when it comes to looking at anything that’s not the moon this is where the problems come. You will need a mobile app on your phone that will detect your location and shows you the direction of the planets, stars etc you will still have some problems locating it in the telescope BUT at least you will be looking in the correct location.My tip if you are a complete beginner use the telescope first during the day looking at buildings, chimneys, street lights etc and work out how to use the telescope, also start by using just the 25mm eyepiece this will be the easiest, then when happy try the 10mm then the Barlow lens and when you get a good understanding or feel ready then try at night.The tripod is not the best quality BUT it does work once you get use to it and that is the main thing, the phone adapter for me personally lets the package down a bit my phone lens was never as close as I would like which caused light getting though.Overall I am happy with he telescope it makes a great starting point and if you really get into astronomy you will replace this for a better on. I will say don’t give up up after a few attempts of seeing nothing in the telescope keep going and you will get it working

I think this is a good telescope for beginners, even without a deep dive it can be set up for moon and solar system observation easily, the guide scope is more than enough for that purpose and the tripod keeps it all steady enough, they include a few eyepieces and I think the addition of the phone attachment is great as even on day one with this telescope you'll be able to take images of the moon on another level to anything you can get with your smartphone, as an introduction its going to do just fine, then later you can graduate to a nicer refractor of big Dobsonian, all in all, very good value and a neat telescope that will do basic astronomy viewing and imaging just fine.
