Sky Rover Binoculars. Alpha glass, bargain price.
« on: April 06, 2026, 06:57:09 AM »
So I had never heard of these binoculars before but stumbled accross this thread on Rokslide.

 Guys were claiming these binos were just as good as all the alpha glass for 1/5 of the price. I did a little research myself and after some compelling reviews I decided to roll the dice and order a pair. I found the 12x50s on ebay for $588 shipped. After about 4 weeks I was starting to think I had been scammed but then they showed up. Quality seemed good. They are a little bulkier and few Oz heavier than other camparable sized binos. Not an issue for me.

Ive never owned true alpha glass but these are superior to all the vortex and athlon optics I've had. We put them side by side with my buddies 14-52 swaro NL pures and the swaros weren't any better. Glassing was from tripods middle of the day and later into the day looking strait into the sun. Didn't get a chance to compare in low light yet. We both have spring bear tags so ill make sure to put them side by side in low light and see how they do. Ill report back afterwards. So far I'm happy with the purchase.

Every size is sold out on their website. Word is traveling fast that they are a good value fir what you get. I'd definitely like to try some 15s
