Our take on the Celestron Nexstar 6SE 150mm f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain GoTo Telescope Wifi Kit

The NexStar 6SE is a 150mm f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain on a single-fork-arm GoTo mount, sold here with a Wi-Fi adapter for wireless control from a phone or tablet. Its sealed optical tube needs no collimation fuss for most owners, and the whole scope breaks into light pieces that fit in a small car. The NexStar+ hand control carries over 40,000 objects plus a Sky Tour, and SkyAlign aligns on any three bright points. It is the step up from a starter refractor: more aperture and true GoTo tracking, but heavier and more involved than a small tabletop scope.

Best forFirst serious telescope buyersBackyard planetary and lunar viewingOwners who want GoTo tracking without a big equatorial mountTravel to darker sites in a small car
Pros
  • 150mm aperture pulls in detail on planets, the Moon and brighter deep-sky objects
  • Single fork arm keeps the package light and quick to set up
  • Breaks into separate tube, mount and tripod pieces for transport
  • SkyAlign alignment is simple for beginners
  • Over 40,000-object database with guided Sky Tour
  • Wi-Fi kit allows wireless control from a phone or tablet
Cons
  • Single fork arm limits stability in wind and at high power
  • Alt-az mount means field rotation for long-exposure imaging
  • F/10 is slow for faint nebulae and galaxies
  • Needs a power source; AA batteries drain quickly in cold
  • Tripod and mount add bulk compared with a grab-and-go refractor

What reviewers say

Owners treat the 6SE as a dependable first serious scope: sharp optics, easy alignment and light enough to carry outside in one trip. Complaints center on the mount's steadiness in wind and the slow f/10 focal ratio for deep-sky work.

What people mention
  • OpticsPraisedOwners report crisp lunar and planetary views and clean star images for the aperture.
  • SetupPraisedThe scope breaks into light pieces and SkyAlign alignment is quick for newcomers.
  • Mount stabilityCriticisedThe single fork arm vibrates in wind and during focusing at high magnification.
  • Focal ratioMixedF/10 suits planets and the Moon but is slow for faint nebulae and galaxies.
  • PowerCriticisedAA batteries run down fast, especially in cold weather, so owners use an external supply.

About the Celestron Nexstar 6SE 150mm f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain GoTo Telescope Wifi Kit

The Celestron NexStar 6SE is a 150mm f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain GoTo telescope with an orange tube. It sits on a patented single fork arm mount. The telescope breaks down into several lightweight, compact pieces for transport. StarBright XLT optical coating improves light transmission.

The included NexStar+ hand control locates over 40,000 celestial objects. Its Sky Tour mode shows the best objects currently visible. SkyAlign aligns the telescope when you center three bright objects in the eyepiece and press ALIGN. StarSense AutoAlign, which attaches to the telescope, can align it automatically.

The built-in wedge allows long-exposure tracking. The secondary mirror can be removed and replaced with a DSLR or astronomical CCD camera for wide-field imaging at f/2 using a Fastar/HyperStar lens assembly. The telescope can also be paired with Celestron Skyris cameras for imaging the Moon and planets.

Questions and answers

Is the 6SE good for a beginner?
Yes. SkyAlign aligns on three bright objects and the hand control guides you to targets, so the learning curve is short. Expect to spend a session or two learning the menu.
What can I see with 150mm of aperture?
Good detail on the Moon and planets, plus brighter galaxies, clusters and nebulae under dark skies. Faint objects need dark sites and averted vision.
Can I take photos with it?
The alt-az mount tracks but does not remove field rotation, so it suits short planetary and lunar video rather than long deep-sky exposures. A wedge or equatorial mount is needed for serious imaging.
Does the Wi-Fi kit replace the hand control?
No. The hand control still works and is useful for alignment and menus; the Wi-Fi adapter lets you control the scope from a phone or tablet app instead.
How portable is it?
The tube, mount and tripod separate into light pieces that fit in a small car. Setup takes a few minutes once you know the routine.
Does it need collimation?
Schmidt-Cassegrains hold collimation well, and most owners rarely adjust it. A quick check after rough transport is enough.
Where is the Celestron Nexstar 6SE 150mm f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain GoTo Telescope Wifi Kit cheapest?
