My friends guess its price as 15k :D
By TheInternetGuyon
Pros:
1. Strong
2. Covers enough wide area
3. Objects look very close to the eye.
4. Its cool. All my friends have taken photos with it :)
Cons:
I don't know to judge this product which is priced at 3.5k.
I bought this product when Celestron just newly introduced in to the market and Flipkart priced it at 2600 INR. Now the price is hiked may be because of the demand and petrol hike.
Great binos at this price
By Spid Kingon
I ordered it on Sept'13 and got it at 1800 bucks. Now its surprising to see price increased by almost 1000 bucks (!). Anyway, the first piece delivered had collimation error and I was greatly disappointed and was wondering if i had made a mistake ordering cheap binos.But flipkart promptly gave a replacement without any hassles and I was at peace and HOW !. The binos are great ! Superb clarity, easy to hold and focus, light weight, images sharp, field of view is wide enough and build is sturdy. One problem i found was slight blurriness at the edges but not so noticeable and can be accommodated by observing at the center only and ignoring the edges. At the price i got, that issue i can live with. Another issue is that being 10X, the view can be shaky but I have learnt to deal with it but putting arms on support. It can be mounted on tripod also.
I purchased 2

I have 2 Celestron UpClose G2 10x50 Porro Binoculars. Nothing to say more.
FYI
It is not heavy, good clear and crisp image. (user Need to calibrate it as per their IQ to get better result)
Every bino needs special care. Try not to touch any lens with anything because that may lead to damaging the lens. I made a mistake to touch that objective lens with finger in order to remove some particle. (this mistake costs me 450 rupees). Yes, small marks can only be removed by lens cleaner only. No cotton, cloth will help.
Hope this review may help you.. :)
Perfect!

Sharp images, and great focus! I didn't face any issues. I took a lot of time deciding between whether to buy these or Olympus ones costing Rs 4800. Took the plunge and I am happy I got these for half the price. I have used it frequently, took them to Leh recently - held up pretty well. Take care of them and they sure will last you a lifetime.
Great VFM, great delivery
By Karthik Raghavanon
This binoculars is excellent. The exit pupil is 5mm, which is about as much light an adult eye can let in anyway, so not much light is lost. The 10x zoom and the 3/4ths kg weight means you need to have really steady hands to avoid feeling seasick :) It's great for terrestrial usage on steady ground and reasonable for looking at stars.
Delivery was excellent. It was packed reasonably well, and I got it 2 days after I ordered.
My binoculars were not collimated. I kept seeing double images and getting a bad headache within seconds of usage. I'm not sure if it was because of some knocking around during delivery or because it wasn't done at all. The good thing is that like most, this pair also has screws and I had to manually merge the images and collimate. Better buy binoculars from showrooms where you can check before purchase if you aren't sure how to do this yourself.

By Jitendra Chothanion
Small size which can carry anywhere in pocket. Perfect for the bird watching near by distance up to 100-200m for clear image.
build quality and handling is good but the image quality really sucks
By Riyaz Aminon
build quality and handling is good but the image quality really sucks.too much vignettingimage does not resolve and poor image resolution even in bright day light.was delivered when i was travelling so i missed the 10 day return deadline else would definitely have returned it.total waste of money
Handy to carry along..
By Sasanka Baruahon
Works great, though I got a broken piece and had to return it back. Well good for short time watching for long range images, however not good for watching terrestrial objects like Moon etc.
