APEXEL 10-20X Macro Lens for iPhone & Android Phones | HD Photography Lens Kit with Universal Clip & 45-Mode Fill Light | Capture Still Life Close-Ups, Insects, Plants, Jewelry, Food & Small Objects

The construction of this lens is as it appears in the photos... feels solid with glass and metal parts, save for the clip-on component. If I had to guess, I'd say these budget lenses began life as Macro/Wide-angle lenses for consumer camcorders of a decade ago and have now found new life as adapters for cell phone cameras - which is a good deal for us consumers. Looking directly through the lens, you'll notice it resolves very crisp at the center but drifts into blur near the edge. This is fine since the cellphone's lens only uses the center portion. The wide-angle lens actually unscrews from the macro lens, giving you the ability to focus on items very closely. Re-attaching the wide-angle adapter offers a reasonably wide viewing angle, but on my Google Pixel 2, the lens vignettes in the corners - but not in video mode. Other than that, this is a great budget lens to expand the photographic capabilities of your cell phone camera.

I have a cheaper Apexel macro lens but was not impressed with the results so I decided to try this one. I should have purchased this from the beginning and save my money. This 10x-20x macro is very well constructed and it feels solid in your hands. It comes with all the necessary extras including a ring light to take great macro shot with the iPhone. I'm pretty impressed with the image quality. Highly recommended.

I really tried to get this device to work, but it doesn't. When I clip it over my iPhone 7, there is no way to place it to avoid capturing the edge of the lens (rounding the corner of the picture). Also the clip is too short, so if you try to use it with a smart phone where the camera lens is in the center-back of the phone (like my LG android phone), you can only clip in one direction. There was less corner-rounding on the LG phone, but my iPhone takes superior pictures -- that was the primary reason I bought this lens. In both cases the wide-angle picture is noticeably distorted with a fish-eye appearance, NOT something I wanted. I didn't go further in testing the macro lens (wasn't interested). Amazon was gracious enough to give me a refund (the vendor apparently doesn't want the item returned to them) - so that part was good.

I wish this was easier to use. It is so awkward to put on your phone and line up perfectly. Especially in a situation where I’m trying to get the photo quickly. The light broke within a day so I don’t even get to use that anymore. It also is hard to focus and it seems like part of the shot is always out of focus no matter what you do

The MACRO lens exceeds my expectations (I didn't buy it for, nor test the wide angle). A few reviewers claimed that this lens did nothing. I think some may have made the innocent mistake of using the lens right out of the box, not realizing that the two lens are screwed together when shipped. The two lenses, the wide and macro, nearly cancel each other out if used together. It's not obvious that it's two lenses. But if you separate them, they work nice. I used the MACRO lens with a Motorola G Power and was able to achieve 26.4X (power) magnification. I know it's advertised at 12.5X, but I was able to enlarge a target (salt crystals see upload) that was 1.25 inches across to 33 inches across (English measure more suitable here). And clear and reasonably sharp.

My mistake in just looking at the title of "Zoom" lens. I did not pay attention to the accurate "Macro Zoom" lens. That was my error. But upon trying to use the lens as described I found it difficult to maintain the position of the lens in a usable position. So I find the product less than desirable even as described.

Focal Point not sufficently adjustable for my Samsung phone

To be honest, I found the wide lens pretty laughable. Fixed over the main camera of my phone, it gets about the same range as the phone's inbuilt ultrawide camera, but with more distortion; fixed over the ultrawide camera, it's so zoomed out and distorted that the scene just becomes a tiny bubble. I guess it might be useful if your phone doesn't have an ultrawide camera, or maybe over the selfie camera if you don't mind the distortion. However, the macro lens, which is what I really bought this set for, is fantastic! It lets you get much closer to objects, and I've included some shots of my miniature collection to show what it can do. Image quality really depends on your phone's camera — the lenses are very clear glass, so they don't really obstruct anything, you just need to find the right focusing distance. The clip is plastic but the frames of the lenses themselves are nice solid metal, and they screw firmly into place. The carrying pouch is also a nice touch, except that mine really strongly smells of peppermint. Why peppermint? I guess there are worse things to smell like, but still, why?

Loved this one. It's truly near perfect to DSLR. Macro is superb but wide angle is just awesome. It's a true buy. Works great on OnePlus 6

iPadに使うために、買いました。まだ1度だけの使用ですが良かったです。

La calidad con la que toma las fotografías en modo Macro es excelente, yo lo uso con mi iPhone X y he de mencionar que estoy mas que satisfecho ! La calidad del material es muy bueno , incluye sus tapas para el lente y una bolsita para transportarlo , un paño para limpiar el lente . Realmente muy muy practico y súper útil .

It's more than enough to take some macro shots of products but I find that the focus is fairly small due to the curvature of the lens. I mean, I think that's probably most lens? Anyway. Good product for the price.

Se o seu celular tiver a função macro, está lente não acrescenta nada.
