The best part of this scope is the built-in WiFi connectivity and the nice cell phone adapter. I would recommend getting some stronger eye pieces because this scope (130mm) has a lot of power. So much so that I can’t even look at the moon w/o using a moon filter because it hurts my eyes. I took the attached picture using my cellphone. I have also taken nice pictures of deep space objects but would recommend using a good app that opens up the ISO on your phone to gather even more light.Also, I would recommend an external battery to power the scope because the one it comes with doesn’t last very long.Lastly, if you use a dedicated old cellphone to control the telescope, which I recommend, make sure to set your setting so your phone doesn’t automatically lock after a few minutes. Always keep in open and you will not lose any connection with the telescope. Too easy!

It is very difficult if not impossible to get the telescope to auto-align, or align at all, even when focused on Saturn or Jupiter, it will just say that it can’t be aligned. Very frustrating. Telescope works good when it is set to a planet using the app, but it won’t auto follow.

the wifi app thing sucks ok let me tell you I learned that the wifi doesn't make the telescope easier to use it makes it harder because if your phone dies your tablet dies you are stuck you cant control the scope the skyportal app and how the advertise it as being able to point your phone at objects in the sky to have telescope goto to is only works with you breaking your back trying to get it to align with three bright starts when I could not align it with the moon and jupiter that was it for me . Its made very well looks nice and the images I took were great but if you want to have complete control over the telescope you want the hand controller because it isnt going to die on you also forget about using the batteries total waste you must get power cord or you will be dead in a hour it takes that long just to get used to it . My feed back to company give the customer the hand controller as a back up dont charge them over a 100 dollars for it when you give to customers with other goto scopes for free . The app crashes only with using the scope other than its full of info and its great for seeing where things are thats it . I even paid for the SkySafari app which is the company who made the app for celestron and I got the same experience the app crashes telescope is lost just spins like a lost puppy very frustrating. .Most important if you are still reading this real review if you want to have auto alignment where you dont have to go outside and break your back looking for 3 stars in the sky you have to purchase the starsense auto align module its like too much money lol with that and the wifi module you then can have a real goto for dummies but you looking at 1k at least not counting a DSLR if you taking pictures . I dont recommend this for astrophotography.

Assembled in 5 minutes. Works great out of the box. Wifi wouldn't connect on one occasion so far but only for about 30 seconds then it's fine. Would definitely get a 2x lens too for planets or anything other than the moon. Finder scope is tricky to get used to as it doesn't actually line up (like a scope on a rifle for example) so you have to look from the exact distance and angle everytime for it to work as intended which can get tricky

Super easy to assemble, the app has lots of information and cool option of adding your phone to take pictures. The instructions were simple and aligning the sights were key to finding the night sky objects. The only negative I have is using the app to align the scope to take advantage of the "tour" and find objects and track them is triangulating the scope's position with bright stars isn't so easy. Otherwise, great scope and looking forward to seeing more distant planets and galaxies.

The Astro fi 130 is exactly what I had hoped for. Assembly was quite easy and the set up (aligning it etc…) was easy with a little practice (as the instructions actually say). The quality of the view is really amazing and, once setup, finding and tracking stars, planets etc.. is simple using the app.I have to mention the spectacularly GREAT customer service provided by Rod. I was missing a part and he solved the problem quickly and shipped it to me very quickly. My whole experience with this product is wonderful.

Fácil de usar y de alinear. Aconsejo usar un ordenador para conectar vÃa wifi. El móvil pierde con facilidad la conexión. Es un problema de los móviles, no del equipo.

Todo era perfecto hasta que dejo del funcionar la conexión wifi, y con ello la gracia del telescopio. Lo cambié y me volvió a pasar..... que pena con lo bien que estaba.... aporta otro. Ahorraros las molestias
