Compared to the 20x loupes, the BelOMO is sharper, sharper at the edges, and easier to navigate and focus. Compared to other loupes I've used, like the best 7x loupe I've found, the BelOMO is obviously better optically, very high wow factor. In other words, my usual experience is that one typically sacrifices some aspect of optical quality to get more magnification. The BelOMO delivers increased magnification while improving most aspects of optical quality. Although the viewable area decreases proportionately at 10x, because of the higher image quality at the edges, the "subjective" viewable area appears to be about the same as my 7x.

The past reviews give a clear description of what the product is.

The loupe is powder coated metal with a large viewing area, has nice

clarity and feels pretty heavy and solid.

As a manufacturing engineer, I appreciate good equipment. This loop has excellent clarity and very little distortion. It's also heavy compared to Bausch & Lomb's loops. One disadvantage is that it does not have a place to attach a neck chain.

I wanted a handheld magnifier for plant and insect identification and this loupe exceeds my requirements. The field of view is quite good and the casing is well constructed. It is a good value at going prices!

Don't let the pictures fool you: loupes like this one are still ridiculously small and often seem to disappear in your daypack. Consider purchasing this loupe with one of the optional clip-on neck lanyards (sold by Amateur Geologist) to keep it at hand.

I acquired this loop to take a close look at jewelry, artwork, etc. You will no longer be fooled by fakery. Through this BelOMO 10X Triplet Loupe I can see all I need to see up close and personal. It is very clear with a large viewing area. Great for the price I think.
