Our take on the SUNOYAR Telescope, 70mm Aperture (20X-333X) Telescopes for Astronomy, 400mm Refractor Telescopes for Kids, Adults and Beginners with Tripod and Adapter
The Sunoyar is a 70mm refractor with a 400mm focal length, sold as a starter scope for kids, adults and beginners. It ships with three eyepieces (6mm, 12mm, 20mm) and a 5X Barlow, giving a claimed 20X to 333X range, plus a 5x24 finderscope, an adjustable aluminum tripod and a smartphone adapter with a wireless remote. The 70mm aperture is decent for the moon, planets and bright deep-sky targets, but the highest magnifications push past what this aperture can usefully resolve, so the 6mm eyepiece with the Barlow is mostly empty power. Against similar beginner refractors it adds the phone holder and remote, but its 3.9-star average suggests buyers find the optics and mount only adequate.

- Highest magnifications exceed what a 70mm aperture can resolve clearly
- Light aluminum tripod is prone to shake at high power
- Small 5x24 finderscope is fiddly to align
- Solar film and moon filter are basic accessories

- SetupPraisedReviewers find it quick and simple to assemble for beginners.
- MagnificationMixedThe wide 20X to 333X range appeals, but the top end is more than the aperture supports.

Specifications
Questions and answers
- Is the Sunoyar telescope good for beginners?
- Yes. It is a simple refractor with a finderscope and adjustable tripod, and it assembles quickly. Start with the 20mm eyepiece and work up.
- Can it really reach 333X?
- That figure comes from the 6mm eyepiece combined with the 5X Barlow. A 70mm aperture cannot resolve sharp detail at that power, so expect the clearest views at low to mid magnification.
- What can I see with a 70mm refractor?
- The moon, Jupiter and its moons, Saturn's rings and bright objects like star clusters. Faint galaxies and nebulae will be dim.
- Does it work with a phone?
- Yes. A smartphone adapter and wireless remote are included so you can capture and share what you see.
- Is the tripod tall enough for adults?
- The tripod adjusts from 18 to 57 inches, so it works for children and adults, though it is light and can shake at high power.
- What comes in the box?
- The telescope, three eyepieces (6mm, 12mm, 20mm), a 5X Barlow, a 5x24 finderscope, a moon filter, solar film, an adjustable tripod, a smartphone adapter, a wireless remote and a manual.
