Observations
THE THIRD OBSERVATION DEVICE IN THIS COMPARISON, alongside the already-covered HIKMICRO M15 and TOPDON TS001: a smartphone module rather than a standalone monocular like the Falcon FH25, but the same use-case logic. A 'Birdwatching' palette is explicitly offered, with a claimed detection distance of 970 m despite weighing just 26 g.
Same brand, two completely different products under similar names. Not to be confused with this comparison's HIKMICRO E1L, which is a building measurement instrument, despite the shared 'E' prefix in both model names.
Excluded from this site's scoring system for the same reason as the other three observation devices already mentioned — see our dedicated article on thermal cameras for hunting.
