Features
- Sharp Crystal-clear ViewsThis beginner telescope is much more powerful than it looks! Thanks to its Maksutov-Cassegrain design, high-precision fully multi-coated optical glass lens, both spherical and chromatic abberrations are minimized. It not only delivers vivid high-contrast images for daytime viewing such as birds and wildlife, but also enables astronomical exploration including Saturn, Jupiter, craters on the Moon, etc.
- See How It Works InsideThe ingenious design of the detachable lid reveals the internal construction of the telescope and helps you understand how it works. Make it an appealing educational kit for the young minds. But keep in mind not to touch the mirrors with your fingers and avoid making it dusty.
- Compact and PortableMaksutov-Cassegrain mechanism makes this telescope much more compact than a equivalent refractor or Newtonian. With a long focal length of 750mm, the tube length is only 200mm. Easy to pack and go on a adventure anytime.
- Superior EyepieceThe included high-quality 20mm eyepiece brings 37.5X magnification, providing high-power sharp views on distant objects. You can see any targets more than 8 meters away. Accessories also include a phone adapter, a tabletop tripod and an erect-image diagonal.
- SatisfactionThis Mak telescope that combines power and simplicity requires no-tool super easy setup. It's a perfect gift for kids or adults astronomy beginners. You will also receive one-year hassel-free warranty and 24-hour friendly customer service.

First off, this is NOT a “beginner” or “child’s” telescope. Though it certainly CAN be. Rather it is an astonishingly portable and highly competent instrument. For anyone. The optics are first rate and the ease of use is nearly unparalleled. I have been a mainly visual stargazer for 8 years and own and have owned some high end ED refractors,, including a Tele Vue 85, Takahashi 76, and Stellarvue Access 80, among others. Is this little Sarblue their r equal? No. Of course not. But for 1/8th to 1/20th the cost, it is still a joy to use and the night sky images it serves up are, well, surprisingly sharp and snappy. The PROs: 1. It’s polycarbonate body (OTA…Optical Tube Assembly) is super lightweight yet sturdy. I am impressed with the overall build quality. And the focuser is smooth and precise. No problem achieving sharp focus. 2. The included 20mm eyepiece (a Kellner, I think; possibly an aspheric) is quite good with a nice large eye lens. 3. The smartphone holder is the easiest to use of the 4 I own. 4. The fully multicoated optics are excellent…and not just “for the price”. Excellent, period. I had it out last night for the first time, and had only an hour or so. The seeing was okay, but not great. In that time I enjoyed bright, sharp, contrasty views of 3 double stars (Sigma Orionis, Iota Orionis, and H3945 in Canis Major (two near perfect pinpoints, pale red primary and pale blue secondary). Also, the Orion Nebula (Messier 42) and open clusters Messier 47 in Puppis, NGC 1981 in Orion, NGC (a “bent hour glass core shape) 2244 in Monoceros. And Messier 41, an open cluster 4 degrees south of the super bright Sirius. 5. The price-to-performance ratio. 6. The little tabletop tripod is both lightweight and rock solid. The latter quality surprised me. Would be easy to use at a park picnic table where the seats are a couple of feet lower that the tabletop. 7. The portability. I mean, it’s like carrying around an 8” sandwich. The CONs: 1. Ummmm…..I’m thinking. 2. I’m inclined to say that this is not a wide field instrument, so not suited to lower power wide field observing. But this is NOT a flaw, rather it is just part of the ( folded long focal length) Maksutov design which is best suited for higher power lunar and planetary observing. Still, based on my first light experience, it DOES a decent job on brighter compressed open clusters such as those alluded to above. Ditto double stars, another Mak plus. 3. There is no finder included other than the two little questionably useful pointed “gun sight” bumps on the OTA. But this is easily correctible. Keep reading. 4. The smartphone holder can be used only with the included 20mm eyepiece, and not standard 1.25” eyepieces whose top diameter is too large. RECOMMENDED UPGRADES: 1. Buy a green laser pointer (all over eBay for 5 bucks) and attach it (riding up next to the 2 gunsight bumps so it is directly aligned) to the OTA with 3M double-sided tape (see photo). 2. Use a photo tripod as a mount which you extend part way or all the way (about 4 feet high) which allows you to use a patio chair or whatever so sit and observe in comfort. Amazon Basics offers an excellent one and it comes with its own carry bag, so like 16” or so long when fully compacted: https://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Samsung-Panasonic-eCost-Microfiber/dp/B00J8RM35Q/ref=asc_df_B00J8RM35Q/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=198070155062&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15082464307572345082&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9032854&hvtargid=pla-385574432337&psc=1 3. Consider getting a zoom eyepiece such as the 1.25” SvBony 7-21mm which will give you a wide range of magnification options. This is especially useful in lunar oBserving where one short barrel twist at a time will bring you closer, closer, and closer still to the Moon’s craters and mountain ranges to the point where you get the feel of looking down at the lunar surface from an orbiting space station. 4. If you plan to do a lot of photography with this telescope, get a 2x Barlow lens which doubles the magnification of any eyepiece. So it turns the included 20mm eyepiece from 37.5x to 75x. To see the effects here, look at the two photos of a distant (about 100 yards) tree branches; the first taken with the 20mm EP, the second of the same area of the tree with the 20mm plugged into a Barlow (which I have attached in the first photo in this review).

I wish this had been my first telescope. It doesn’t look or perform like a toy and importantly, it is not frustrating to use. The optics are sound and the design is elegant, with a slightly tapered, contoured tube. It is fun to pop the hood and take a look inside. The tripod is easy to use and adequate. The cell phone adapter is easy to use but requires positioning a tripod leg directly beneath the phone to prevent the weight of the phone from pulling the telescope over. I cannot recommend astrophotography with this setup because I feel it could be frustrating and disappointing for some children. Daytime spotting scope views are crisp and using the phone adapter in this setting is fun. I would recommend a shutter release for the phone when attempting to take photos with this telescope. Views of the moon are very good and the correct image diagonal enables the user to easily use a moon map to identify lunar features. Observing the moon between a crescent and a bit after first quarter never fails to wow, as the craters, mountains and ridges are very distinct. A full moon may be too bright, but is worth a look. Jupiter and Saturn are not currently in the evening sky so I can’t yet evaluate how the telescope performs on those planets, but they will not look like the photos from planetary flybys. The same is true for most nebulae and galaxies, as many of us suffer from light polluted skies which make these objects difficult even with much larger telescopes. The box labels this as Planet Mate and the moon and planets are the best objects for this product, along with spotting scope use. I am sometimes asked to recommend a first telescope, and this will be my recommendation going forward for older preteens and involved parents on a budget.

My wife and I had discussed buying a telescope when the comet in 2020 was visible and binoculars were inadequate. It seemed like Something We Should Own... Our commitment to telescope buying consisted of having one on hand for handy "look at this part of the sky" events. We bought this telescope prior to Saturn and Jupiter being close in the sky in December of 2020, with it's main redeeming feature at this time of being the telescope that would show up before this Once in a Multiple Lifetime Event was over. It turns out there's a *ridiculous* number of people buying and shipping things during COVID. Well, it did show up in time but living in Michigan had postponed our use of this telescope due to cloudiness, snow, etc. Aaaaanddd, this went on for awhile. Late February, on a particularly brisk night, I took it outside and went to look for heavenly bodies. Good luck with that. I was grossly unprepared for how just difficult "looking through a telescope and seeing wonderful things" is. I was convinced it was broken, as delivered. In the instructions, setup was a breeze...and it is. My skill set for viewing, not so much. So, we did what people do now.... We watched some YouTube videos. I looked for this exact model and found an exhausting breakdown by this guy who discussed it for about 45 minutes. Though we fast forwarded through a few parts, we mainly watched the whole thing. I encourage you, the reader, to watch this video and form your own opinion. I learned that it's cleverly engineered. And, we learned, that just plunking down a telescope, pointing to the sky and hoping for the best doesn't work so good. I waited until the next day and looked into the woods, a more realistic target, and voila! Wonderful sights! It works, and it was my skillset that was lacking. So here's what we learned and I'll sum up my breadth of knowledge, such as it is: Pros: 1: Lightweight and transportable. 2: Can attach a phone for photographs. 3: Clever use of mirrors to achieve a much greater length than is the actual product (this is borne out in the video and also because it has this funky access patch so you can see the inside). 4: Potential for adaptability of other eyepieces (or whatever their called...you can put other things you look in into this spot/adapter/mounting lug/whatever the hell you call it. 5: (from the video) Interior of eyepiece is matted so that light does not reflect inside to detract from what you're viewing. 6: (Extra Important to Us) Able to view objects close by (we can watch birds in the woods or at a feeder). 7: Three (count 'em three!) mounting points for a tripod on the underneath for balance. Cons: 1: Tripod is kind of cheesy and very short (about 1' in height) although a Pro is that you can use the tripod for say, a camera. 2: No electronics to help you with night viewing. You'll need a viewing assistant app with your phone. 3: Can open up and look inside. I'm putting this as a con because I'm not sure I'm the guy that needs to see how the sausage is made. If you want to teach a class or kids on how a telescope works, I guess it's a Pro. For me however, knowing my luck, it'll come off outside someplace and a big bug or a bat will fly inside, flutter around, and jack things up while I'm trying to fix it. That may seem unrealistic but that's how things go. 4: The focal knob has like a billion turns in it before it's where you want it. Ok, maybe not a billion but several million at least. 5: It's our first telescope. It doesn't hum, it's not white or black the way pro telescopes seem to be, it doesn't require a truck, we'd probably be laughed out of any serious event, it doesn't look like one of those 12 inch mortars you see people lugging around. 6: Swivel handle makes precision pointing tricky at first.
