I bought the 10 X 36 because it's the latest model and newer / bigger is better. I use it for spotting and identifying wildlife while hiking, walking, golfing, etc. Because of the power, I find it hard to make an easy transition from spotting an object of interest to finding it with the scope. If I were to buy it again, I would buy the 8 X 36. The Vortex is very well made and excellent optics. Don't hesitate to buy the brand.

The monocular has poor eye relief design, so you will be disappointed if you wear glasses as I do. I have to remove my eyeglasses to get anywhere near the full view in the monocular, even with the eye cups fully lowered. I expected better from Vortex.

The manufacturing quality is good, well maintained endings, but in optical expected a little more quality. I have a binocular 8x 30mm of Chinese origin, has no brand, just say water proof, cost me about 12 bucks and has the same image quality, the only difference is it's a bit darker in dim light. If I compare it with a look at Bushnell Elite Tactical 3-12x 44 I own, the look is brighter and has more contrast and sharpness. I was a little disappointed with the optics, but it's not so bad.
I like it, its easy to carry, seems to be well constructed, optics are not crystal clear as described,but good enough. I really like the unlimited life time guarantee!! for the price that I gave for it , it is worth the money !!

Good combination of size and eye relief / field of view. Fantastic monocular in the $100 range. I also have a 10x25 which I really like a lot because of the size but this one is not a lot bigger but the eye relief and field of view is so much better I have been taking this one out more and more. If I had to keep only one, this would be the one. It’s all around combination of size and performance is fantastic. Clarity and focus is really good. Rugged construction. Would be nice to have good flip lens covers and a better lanyard out of the box but it’s ok , lens seems to be durable enough that it’s not necessary. Lanyard wise LOC makes a sweet rangefinder lanyard that I use for this and my Vortex rangefinder and really makes it so much more convenient out in field and ups the feel of quality ridding of the cheap lanyard that comes with it. Case is ok, I use it basically to protect the lens which is about all its good for. Overall two thumbs up for me! Great monocular. Price to quality ratio is a solid 5 stars Read full review
