1. The Construction is not Sturdy.
Behind the rubber skin, the tubes are plastic. Any drop (side-way, from any distance) can cause critical damage.
(Have you drop a pair on binoculars to the ground? Probably no, I guess)
2. The Optics are not Acceptable.
In bright day-time, if moved across the landscape, the image does not "move" smoothly. It shows some irregular variations.
(Yes, it is cheap; but it is not acceptable at any price.)
3. The Coating, Only Covered a few Surfaces.
The reflection from the objective lens show only one coated surface; while the rest are "white".
(However, as a occasional star-watcher, I don't feel anything strange.)
4. Limited Information Available before Purchase was made.
I couldn't find enough information regarding this binoculars. After arrival, I noticed "Bk7" is marked outside the box.
(As a consumer, decision-making was not easy.)
5. The Prisms Quality??
Since it is BK7, the diamond-shaped shadows in the eye-lens are so significant, and thus blurred the image. It can never reach the sharpness as a Nikon, for which I also owned. Besides, it gets worse as farther away from the center.
(Frustrated, ...)
