Whether you’re a beginner or buying a first telescope for a curious kid, the Gskyer 70mm Aperture 400mm AZ Mount Refracting Telescope offers an excellent balance of affordability and capability. With a 70 mm aperture and 400 mm focal length (f/5.7), its fully coated glass optics are built to gather enough light for clear views of the moon, planets, and brighter deep‑sky objects.
The kit comes ready for action: two eyepieces, a 3× Barlow lens to multiply magnification, a reflex finderscope for easier aiming, and useful accessories like a phone adapter and wireless remote. The adjustable aluminum tripod and carry bag make transport easy—ideal for backyard observation or taking the telescope on stargazing trips.
While this telescope isn’t going to rival high‑end gear in extreme magnification or deep‑sky detail, it shines in delivering value. For hobbyists and families who want to learn the constellations, observe lunar craters, or try astrophotography via phone cam, it’s a solid all‑rounder. Easy to assemble, forgiving of beginner mistakes, and equipped with enough magnification (up to ~120× with Barlow) for satisfying celestial snapshots.
