Fun and simple to use microscope
A couple of highlights:
* Built-in Wifi connectivity allows you to use this with the DLScope app on your mobile phone which allows you to use your phone screen as the display for the microscope as well as take pictures and video.
* USB connectivity allows you to use this with your computer as an external camera. No drivers were needed for me. I was able to use this with the included "Camera" program in Windows.
* Adjustable LED lights in the microscope illuminate the subject.
* Adjustable LED lights in the base as well that allows you to illuminate behind as well. The microscope can be detached from the based and used standalone.
* Various slides included with different specimens to look at. However, there's a plastic film that is part of the label as part of the slides that obscures the specimens a bit
* Image quality and resolution is suprisingly good considering the price, size and intended audience ("for kids" according to the product title)

And a few areas that were not impressive:
* The microscope twists apart very easily. If you are not careful, you'll end up ripping this thin ribbon cable between the top and bottom halves.
* NOT 1000x zoom as it claims. There's only one optical zoom level and any "zooming" would be done digitally
* There's an attachment that's included that looks like a tiny specimen container that spins as well as allowing you slide it back and forth. The instructions make no mention of this attachment and what you're supposed to do with it. My guess is that you can use it for liquids, but the way it's designed, it's very difficult to get your fingers to it

Overall though it's a fun and easy to use microscope that allows you to easily carry it around and look at many objects up close. You might want to avoid putting this up to the skin on your face though as it tends to reveal a lot of blackheads that you might not have been aware of
