The size is fantastic. I have a normal sized set of binoculars, but this pair has a size that is easy for me to carry on a regular basis, and the optics are amazing.

My wife wanted a small set of binoculars to take on her Alaskan cruise. I saw these on the BB website and decided to check them out.
I like everything about them and made the purchase. When she got home I surprised her with them and she was overjoyed about the physical size...I was her hero for the day!!
She took them on her trip and loved them...good set to get for a purse, etc.

These were smaller than I expected but that turned out to be a big plus! I am on the small side with small hands but these binoculars are easy to handle and not at all cumbersome. For their small size they give a very big view. I found the focus adjustments easy to make and I am very pleased with how well I am able to see birds and wildlife. I think they would also be good at a concert or sporting event. Their light weight and included carrying case and strap make these binoculars easy to take anywhere. I have already recommended them to a few people.

I bought this pair to use it in concerts and sports. They came in very handy as I went to two concerts in the same week, and my seats were far from the stage. In one of the concerts they didn't have a big screen, so if I didn't bring these I would be in bad shape.
It is super sharp and lightweight. With the 10x magnification, you have to have steady hands. But image stabilization only comes in more expensive binoculars.
The only problem is the strap. It is not well designed, doesn't hold the binoculars, slips through the loop. Had to tie a knot to hold it in place.

I use these mainly for hunting. The binoculars are fairly compact and have a nice feel to them. The included neck strap is nice, but I wish it was a little longer. Clarity is better than expected for a pair of binoculars in this price range. They work fairly well in low light conditions. I am able to see in the woods with them until it is too dark for me to hunt.
The hinge between the two halves is stiff which in my opinion is a good thing. Once I have them set for my eyes, they stay put. The focus ring and the main focus wheel on top are also quite stiff which can be a problem if you are trying to operate them with one hand. Hopefully they will loosen up over time.
Overall, I would say that these binoculars are a good solid 4 stars in their category. I bought them on sale for less than $50 which made my decision to buy them very easy.
If you are tired of the really cheap compact binoculars that don't stay aligned or have poor image quality, try a pair of these Nikon 10x25's. You won't be disappointed.

Love these, they are small, light weight and great for hiking, etc.
I didn't give the full 5 stars because they are limited on the distance , but I did want a compact size.
I do guided tours and my hikers love using these as well.

Cannot really review how they will work from my grandsons perspective as they were purchased for his Christmas gift. In my opinion these binoculars appear quite light weight, compact and HOPEFULLY durable. Because of these qualities I think a child can handle the product easily and enjoy many hours of fun while gathering a wealth of education due to their ease of function. However, I wish the lens covers were attached so they aren’t such an obvious opportunity for getting lost. We all know kids and adults loose pieces like this as well as camera lens covers. There has to be someone who thinks about this possibility in terms of product function. They should figure a way for a very thin strap attachment to be affixed to the binoculars that would certainly save some grief and disappointment by the owners (child or adult). Because kids are kids, I’m quite sure these binoculars will be accidentally dropped. The real proof in this products quality is the durability of the lens from getting too easily cracked or shattered. They are surrounded by what appears to be a VERY DURABLE outer covering for protection, so I’m just hoping they hold up well. NIKON has a very positive following of products in the marketplace so hopefully I won’t be disappointed. I also purchased the GEEK SQUAD Insurance Policy. Only time will tell.

I bought this pair of binoculars for viewing the singers at a performance of the Metropolitan Opera. They were perfect! I have them in my car now for ready usage in the future. They are small and easily carried in your
pocket but also come with a case and neck strap. Very satisfied!

Great binoculars for hiking. Lightweight, easy to use, especially when trying to spot fast-moving wildlife. Not bulky, so easier to hang around neck instead of grabbing from backpack. Tied a knot at end of neck strap as advised by another reviewer to keep strap from slipping out. Would recommend for quick viewing when active outdoors.

Good quality optics, while being lightweight and smaller to easily fit into a hiking pack. Focuses nicely. Some troubles focusing if the binoculars are not held very still.

Really like the weight and ease of focus. They are perfect for carrying in a pocket. Lens caps do tend to fall off, so pay attention. We are using for birds, sports, and travel.
Highly recommend if you don't need anything TOO powerful

So... these are NOT the best binoculars in the world, or even the best I've ever used. However, they are small and convenient to carry inside of my camera bag, and definitely came in handy to see details of things from far while sightseeing in Europe. The Mona Lisa was quite a distance from where they allow you to stand, but with this I was able to see all the detail I wanted. For the price, you can't go wrong.

I needed a compact pair of binoculars that I could store in my golf bag or glove compartment of my car in case I noticed an unusual bird. I did not need to spend several hundred dollars since I only needed them occasionally. The optics are good to very good. As can be expected in a small pair like this the field of view is fairly narrow. They do the job I needed.
