Jiusion 40 to 1000x Magnification Endoscope, 8 LED USB 2.0 Digital Microscope, Mini Camera with OTG Adapter and Metal Stand, Compatible with Mac Window 7 8 10 11 Android Linux

Works very well for the price has a light and gives a clear view of things close up - 10/10 - and it comes with a small case and stand.

This is for the £27.60 wifi enabled model with the flat metal stand. Good build quality, and worked immediately out of the box both on my Acer laptop (via supplied USB cable) and my Motorola Android phone (via wifi). LED lights provide adequate brightness and focus adjustment works nicely. The flat folding metal stand is also good quality, adjusts well and holds the microscope firmly. Not convinced about the magnification but it's good enough to show the individual spots of colour in the 'pixels' printed to make the photos in its own instruction pamphlet! Can't get 2 different optical magnifications - just one. So it's really a digital camera that can magnify by X times. See the attached photo of the stylus on my record player. Would buy again.

Quite good for the price. You can’t expect miracles, but it does show enough of a stylus tip to see if it’s worn or damaged. It is a bit plasticky, and getting good alignment is fairly tricky, but you do get there eventually. The focus is also quite stiff to operate without moving misaligning it again. So it is a tad fiddly, but again, for the price, it works better than expected. For iPad users, it is actually compatible, if you have a USB-C model. Download an App called CamX (their website does have this in the instructions there), and it does indeed work on an iPad (iPad Pro 2020 here). All the controls seem accessible too, including the digital zoom (it’s not that useful to be honest, but digital zoom isn’t great on any camera really). No idea about the 40-1000x thing, magnification seems to be related to how close you can get, and how well you focus it. But it seems to have its uses, and could even be educational, or just fun, for youngsters. It’s worth a punt if you’re looking for something like this.

This is an easy 5-stars for me. The price is amazing and it works extremely well. Ok, it's my first microscope so maybe I'm easily pleased, but it captures very good images at high magnification. Best of all for me is the fact that you just hook it up to your PC (it's plug and play, so just plug it in to a USB port and then turn on the 'Camera' app that comes with Windows) and you see the images on the screen instead of having to look into the microscope itself. This is really handy, it allows you to press the camera against your skin, hair, clothing etc and just look at the screen. The cable is long enough for it to reach from my PC, which is on a desk, down to the carpet. Then you can just hit 'Print Screen' and save your images in a paint package. I've had loads of fun with it and for £30, you just can't go wrong. The only issue I had, being a microscope noob, is that I couldn't work out how to focus it properly. A little bit of reading later and I realised that this an issue with all microscopes and it's due to focal length etc. It's not really a problem though, press it up against your subject and alter the zoom until it comes into focus. I find that for most subjects, I get clarity at two different zooms, one giving a good overall close-up and then it goes fuzzy until it comes into view again for a much more zoomed in close-up.

It's okay I guess, it's a bit of a nuisance as it keeps disconnecting, but when it works it's fine for the price. Easy to use with the stand and you can literally take it anywhere as it plugs into your phone. Image quality is good enough, but you need to have an application to be able to show you the image. Great little microscope at good value, lacks decent software for use on phones.

The microscope worked perfectly out of the box on my Android phone, laptop and desktop. You can just plug it in and use it like a USB webcam or you can download their recommended software which worked perfectly and easily. It has two main zoom modes, the lower magnification one has quite an impressive range and let's you place the microscope a reasonable distance away at the cost of magnification. It also has a higher magnification mode that works only when the thing you are trying to look at is right at the end of the microscope. The scroll wheel on the cord for the LED brightness is very useful as you don't need to touch the microscope to change the brightness which means you don't accidently move it. I have used mine for just generally looking at things, smd LEDs, E-paper displays etc. It is powerful enough to look at the pixels on your phone or monitor. I have also used it for smd soldering where it's long range came in very helpful as I could keep the microscope at a distance whilst using a hot air reflow gun whilst still having the benefit of the magnification of the microscope showing on a large screen. After soldering I could use the higher magnification mode to inspect the individual solder joints. The microscope coped comfortably with applying solder paste and components of 0402 size and qfn44 and I am confident enough in its ability to try smaller and more dense packages. Overall brilliant scope, very easy to use and works very well.

Even after following all the instructions on the manual to connect the device to my phone and laptop it didn't work. You are supposed to download 4 different apps, from which 2 are not available on Google store anymore, to make the device work. The apps do not sincronize with the camera. I spent a lot of time trying to set it up and yet it doesn't work. Do not buy it.

So I got this for my daughter to observe things. It arrived on time,the packaging was good,and the stand was amazing.But the microscope's USB wasn't working properly on either phone or computer,also the type C adapter didn't come with it. Definitely not what I expected.

This microscope is extremely useful for showing details of many objects, without the need to destroy the object. However, prepared objects between slides can be studied as well. Attached a screen copy with S-EYE (the software) connected to the Jiusion USB microscope. You see dried coffee on a plastic slide. The microscope is adjusted to about 1000 times. A disadvantage is that the transparant plastic safety cap at the front of the microscope should be removed first to reach 1000 times.

ok

Very cool product at a great price! Comes in a sturdy case to keep things organized, but I'm not sure how often mine is going to make it back into the case, since it is so fun to keep it handy and explore. Software is not too hard to install and being able to view, photograph and even take video of samples makes it easy for everyone to be able to see (vs taking turns to look with a more traditional microscope.) It wouldn't be suitable in situations where you need to know the specific magnification at which you were viewing items as the focus goes from 40-1000x but you don't know the exact degree of magnification you happen to be at as you move between the two. The LED lights are nice and bright (and adjustable.) This would be a great gift for curious" kids" of all ages, and a fantastic introduction to the wonders of the microscopic world.

Great tool to use when you need to work on tiny details. I bought it to help me repair my phone and it perfectly does the job! Easy to install, just downloaded the apps available and you can even zoom 5x extra. Very fine image details with balanced color and contrast. If needed, the app allows you to tweak them even more. I like the illumination and its brightness. Enough to do minuscule work like soldering SMD components. Very nice product for the price. I definitely recommend it.
