Pocket Size, Basic, Perfect for Travel
I couldn't decide between these binoculars (ASIN B078WMVBXD), or the other one listed (ASIN B07GQ8J4QX). Both were listed for exactly the same price at time of purchase, about $14. Though I read all the specs, this one being 8x21 131m/1000m, the other being 12x25 126m/1000m (there's a discrepancy between the bullet points and the images as to whether metric or English units; it's printed in metric on the product, so I'd believe that first). Ultimately, I couldn't decide. Since they're both inexpensive travel binoculars, I bought both. Trying them myself at a distant object, they really are not much different. However, this pair (ASIN B078WMVBXD) shows everything in normal colors, while the other pair (ASIN B07GQ8J4QX) have tinted lenses which when viewed through, give everything a blue tint. I'm sure there's a practical reason for that (anti-glare, I'm assuming), but I really don't like normal daylight to be discolored like that. Ultimately, I would recommend the 8x21 131m/1000m (ASIN B078WMVBXD) binoculars, but there really is not much difference between the two.
