| I bought these binoculars to bring to concerts and plays. The size was perfect for my small sundown purse, but I didn't realize just how well they worked. Wish that I would have owned them when I was sitting in the upper stratosphere at the Celine Dion concert in Las Vegas. They go with me to every event now to ensure a "excellent" seat every time. |
Outstanding at twice the price

| I have shared a pair with a friend for more than a year and I must say I was amazed the first time I looked through them, having had all my experience with a [$] pair of older compact binoculars. These were nearly as excellent and a fraction of the price. Highly not compulsory. |

| As a former seller, I find these binoculars to be exceptional for nature surveillance and all other general purposes. The compact size and weight, with case, make them most suitable for traveling. Highly urge. Bill |

These binoculars are much smaller than my other 16x Bushnells, but surprisingly are comparable in quality. The greatest advantage of having small binoculars is that they are portable, and lightweight. One would expect to loose a lot of quality compared to larger ones, considering these advantages. But to my surprise, that trade-off was worth it. Bottom line, lower price, higher portability, much lighter in weight make these binoculars a winner in its category. |
Exceptional pocket-sized binoculars

| The Bushnell Powerview 12x25 is a fine, small pocket-sized binocular. Since my wife is an avid bird outsider, we by now have numerous binoculars of innumerable sizes and viewing power. Our grandson accidentally broke her small 10x25 Bushnell that we used for trips, so I researched, then bought this one from Amazon for her birthday. She likes it. The viewing power is a bit superior than the other and is every bit as compact, which makes it simple to pack for vacations, yet provides for a excellent viewing experience when enjoying the innumerable bird populations around the people. We both highly urge this, and other Bushnell products. |
