Review: Oh my God, Oh my God incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!! - I was going to buy a Athlon Cronus UHD for $499 on desertcart (not G2). The $499 was a great price. Then while researching binoculars I came across a multi-binocular review that included the Athlon Midas G2 UHD. Not only did the Midas win the review of binoculars under $300 but it won the review of binoculars under $500. So I purchased the Midas on desertcart for $245.60. 8 x 42. The good: They were delivered the very next day from my order, yeah! I open the packaging and looked out my back yard. I wear glasses so binoculars have been a problem for me in the past. I started screaming for my wife to come take a look. Image so clear, I could see the paint pealing off my neighbor's deck 3 houses down. My wife had a dying plant left over from her garden and I focused in and I could easily see the veins of the plant. Incredible, light weight, clear, great eye relief for eyeglass wearers, beautiful vision. Unbelievable! Lifetime warranty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The bad: My wife said she had to have them for birding and spying on the neighborhood and boy she can with these. So I had to spend another $245.60 the same day I received them so we would both have a pair. The ugly: My neighbor's pealing deck. Really, nothing ugly about the value for money, image, size, weight, warranty, focusability. I may have to buy 2 more for my son's birthdays. Incredible value that will not likely last. Summary, you will love these. My wife and I sure do. I am pumped over this purchase!
Review: Athlon Optics- super customer service - It has been a few years since I bought the 8x42 Midas G2 UHD, and I seldom write review, but I felt compelled to share a very positive customer service experience when I recently called for a replacement case ,and decided should also write a review. First off I’m no binocular expert but read lots of reviews before finally deciding on the purchase in 2021 and have been happy with the optical quality , especially the near an quick focus, field of view, and eye relief . They’ve held up well, used them for bird watching , airshows, stargazing, general nature & outdoor activity, hot ,cold, humid and rainy conditions never fogged up. Sure there may be better choices than an 8x42 for some of the specific application, but for portability, price point and quality, IMHO the Athlon Midas hit the mark for all my purposes and they have served me well. And back to customer service – sent an email , said I lost the case on a recent trip ,could I purchase a new case , and no question asked they offered to mail me a new case. They even scheduled the delivery so that they wouldn’t arrive while I was still away. Thank you Sam H at Athlon Optics

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best pair of binoculars I have ever owned.
*by A***R on September 4, 2020*

The image from these binoculars is incredibly clear, crisp, and bright. The adjustable diopter is very precise and I was able to quite easily account for my right eye being quite different from my left. 8x magnification is definitely enough, and the wide field of view is very convenient and helpful. In fact these binoculars are so clear and so well calibrated that when Jupiter and Saturn were out last night, I could see Jupiter's moons around the planet and I could just see the band of darkness where Saturn's rings crossed over the reflective planet. These are absolutely incredible, they're light and convenient and come in a great carrying case, have great lens caps that stay attached to the objective lenses, and the twist up eyecups have the perfect settings for me. I have had them out in multiple weather conditions without the slightest hint of them fogging up. Also, the neck strap is sturdy and comfortable, and has so far shown no sign of coming loose from the bins' housing. Absolutely fantastic pair of binoculars. If you can afford them, get these.
