Everything about this product
2 Inch Screen
Kids See It On The Screen
The 2 inch IPS screen is the heart of it. A wide 178 degree angle keeps the picture clear and true in color from the side, so a child never presses one eye to a small lens. Point it at a butterfly wing or a flower, turn the focus wheel, and the detail fills the screen for the whole table to share at once.
8 LED Lens
Bright Lens, Eight LED Ring
Behind the clear base sits a 2 megapixel lens circled by eight small LED lights. They flood the sample with even, shadow free light so colors stay true, and a button raises or lowers the glow. The lens reaches up to 1000x, pulling leaf veins, insect wings and paper fibers into sharp, close view on the screen.
Four Colors
White, Orange, Pink, Purple
Pick from four soft grip colors: white, orange, pink and purple. Each one is the same pocket size microscope, about 10.5 by 8 by 5 cm and 226g, light enough to hang from the yellow neck strap on a backyard hunt. A 600mAh battery runs around two hours and recharges over the USB cable, so the exploring carries on both outside and indoors.

FAQ
Questions before checkout
Is it easy for young children to use?
Yes. The image shows on the 2 inch screen instead of a small eyepiece, the clear base keeps the microscope steady on the object, and one side wheel sets the focus. Most children manage it with only a little help at the start, and a parent can watch the same screen alongside them.
How high does it magnify?
The lens reaches up to 1000x magnification at 2 megapixels. That is enough to bring insect wings, leaf veins, paper fibers, a coin surface or a strand of hair into clear view on the screen.
Does it need a phone or a memory card?
No. It stores up to 200 photos on its own 32MB memory and shows everything on the built in 2 inch screen. When you want to keep the pictures, plug it into a Windows or Mac computer with the USB cable and copy them across.
How long does the battery last and how do I charge it?
The 600mAh battery runs about two hours per charge and refills over the included USB cable in roughly two hours. It works cordless once charged, so there is no wire trailing during a backyard hunt or a session at the table.
What can we look at with it?
Almost anything small and flat enough to rest under the base. Popular subjects are leaves, flowers, insect wings, coins, banknotes, salt or sugar grains, hair and paper fibers. Press the clear base onto the object, turn the focus wheel until it sharpens, then save the photo.
What colors does it come in?
It comes in four soft grip colors, white, orange, pink and purple. Each one includes the same 2 inch screen, eight LED ring light, focus wheel, clear base, USB cable and yellow neck strap.
Can two children share it at the same time?
Yes. Because the view appears on the screen rather than through an eyepiece, a couple of children can look together, and a parent or classmate can see the same image at the same time. That makes it easy to share a find without taking turns at a lens.
What is included in the box?
Each order includes the microscope, a USB charging cable, a yellow neck strap and a user manual. It arrives ready to use, so you can charge it, hang it around the neck and start looking at a leaf or a coin straight away.

Delphine R.Verified Purchase
My daughter is hooked
Marnix V.Verified Purchase
Great for small hands
It is light and the soft grip body fits my son's hands well. He carries it around the garden by the strap and presses the base onto anything he finds. The picture on the screen is clear and the LED ring lights everything up nicely.
Soline B.Verified Purchase
The screen makes it
What won me over is the screen instead of a tiny eyepiece. Two of my kids can look at the same time and there is far less arguing. The purple one arrived charged and we were looking at a coin within minutes.
Tobias K.Verified Purchase
Good fun, simple to use
Focus wheel and the clear base make it steady enough for a seven year old to manage alone. The photos it saves are a nice touch since he likes showing his grandparents. I would have liked a little more memory but it holds plenty for a day out.
Elara M.Verified Purchase
Perfect birthday gift
Bought the pink one for my niece and she adored it. It came ready to go with the strap and cable, and the manual was clear. She was studying flower petals and her own fingertip within the hour. Lovely present for a curious kid.
Casimir D.Verified Purchase
Battery lasts a good session
Charges over USB and runs long enough for an afternoon of exploring before it needs topping up. No loose batteries to hunt for. The eight LEDs make a real difference on darker samples like tree bark.
Priya N.Verified Purchase
Turned a rainy day around
We could not go outside so the kids studied salt, sugar and a banknote at the kitchen table. The screen shows so much detail and they were amazed at the paper fibers. Kept them busy and curious for ages.
Lorcan F.Verified Purchase
Sturdy little thing
It has been dropped a few times on grass and gravel and still works fine. The clear base is handy for keeping it level on a leaf. My only note is the wheel takes a moment to find the sharp point, but kids learn it quickly.
Anouk W.Verified Purchase
Bright screen, easy focus
The IPS screen is clear even outdoors and tilts up so we can look down at it comfortably. My son loves that he can snap a photo and look back at it later. Simple enough that he uses it without me hovering.
Reuben S.Verified Purchase
Backyard science made easy
We hang it round his neck with the yellow strap and off he goes. Leaves, ants, a feather, a rock, he checks everything. The image on the screen is sharp once the wheel is set and the light ring keeps it even.
Fabienne L.Verified Purchase
Both kids can watch
The best part for us is that the picture is on a screen, so my two children look together rather than fighting over one eyepiece. It is light, the grip is soft, and the white one looks smart. Really pleased with it.
Idris A.Verified Purchase
Nice starter microscope
A good first microscope for a young child. The screen and steady base make it far easier than the eyepiece kind we had before. Photos save onboard which the kids enjoy. Charging over USB is convenient.
Sunniva H.Verified Purchase
Orange one is a hit
My son picked the orange one and carries it everywhere. The buttons for photos and brightness are easy for him to reach. We looked at a butterfly wing and the detail on the screen genuinely surprised us both.
Mathis G.Verified Purchase
Keeps him curious
He asks to use it most days now. The clear base sits right on whatever he is studying and the wheel brings it into focus. Light enough to hold steady and the strap means he does not drop it outdoors.
Rosalind P.Verified Purchase
Simple and well made
Feels solid for a kids item and the soft grip is comfortable. Setup was just charging it over USB and hanging on the strap. My daughter loves saving photos of her finds and looking at them again later.
Bastien C.Verified Purchase
Good value for a gift
Gave this to my godson and he was thrilled. Easy for him to look at things on the screen and the light ring helps a lot indoors. The focus takes a bit of practice but nothing a child cannot pick up.
Ingrid T.Verified Purchase
Screen beats an eyepiece
After a frustrating classic microscope, this is a relief. The image is right there on the screen so my youngest can actually see it without straining. Bright, clear and steady on the base. Highly recommend for little ones.
Oscar B.Verified Purchase
Fun for the whole family
We all ended up passing it round looking at hair, skin, a coin and a leaf. The screen makes it a group activity. Light, cordless and the battery lasted our whole evening of poking at things.
Naila R.Verified Purchase
Great for outdoor walks
We take it on nature walks and my daughter checks flowers and bark along the way. The strap keeps it handy and the base steadies it on uneven surfaces. The photos are a lovely way to remember what she found.
Emeric D.Verified Purchase
Solid little explorer tool
Does what it promises. Clear screen, adjustable light and a manual focus that a child can learn. Storage fills for a day out and empties easily onto the computer. Happy with the purchase for the price.
Liset V.Verified Purchase
My son shows everyone
He loves taking a photo of a bug and running to show the family on the screen. It is light, the grip is soft and the base keeps it level. The eight LEDs light things up even in a dim room. Really good fun.
Thaddeus O.Verified Purchase
Easy win for a curious kid
Charged it, hung it on the strap and handed it over. Within minutes he was focusing on a leaf and saving photos. The screen is bright and the whole thing is simple enough that he needs no help now.
Sabine K.Verified Purchase
Lovely gift, well received
Bought for a science mad seven year old and it was a hit. The screen and steady base make it genuinely usable for a child. Comes complete with cable, strap and a clear manual. Would buy again for another gift.
You press the clear base over a leaf, turn the side wheel, and a ladybug fills the 2 inch screen in sharp color.
This is a handheld digital microscope built for curious kids. It is light enough for small hands, with a soft grip body in white, orange, pink or purple and a yellow strap so it can hang around the neck on a backyard hunt or a trip to the park.
The 2 inch IPS screen tilts up at the top, eight LED lights ring the lens to flood the sample with bright even light, and a clear plastic base steadies the microscope right on a flower, a coin or a fingertip. A wheel on the side sets the focus by hand, and the buttons handle zoom, brightness, photos and the menu.

Why It Works
Most kid microscopes force one eye against a tiny eyepiece. This one moves the picture onto a bright 2 inch screen, so a child sees the butterfly wing the moment the focus wheel lands, and a parent or classmate can watch the same view at the same time.

How It Fits Your Routine

We took this to the park on the first day and my daughter spent an hour looking at leaves and a ladybug. The screen is bright and easy for her to see, so I could look with her instead of waiting for a turn at an eyepiece. The focus wheel is simple enough that she got the hang of it fast.
