The scope and the stock lens were powerful enough to spot and observe Jupiter and its moons. The highlight of the product is the starsense guide that comes with the product which makes the whole experience of finding the planets easy for the beginners Review: Very disappointing viewing quality - Very disappointed with the results. Average quality. Tried my best to see the Jupiter bands but can’t see anything more than a white dot. Not much improvement from a cheap telescope to this expensive telescope. Only the good part is the app which it comes with. ## Features - Use your smartphone to take you on a guided tour of the night sky no telescope experience required - StarSense sky recognition technology uses your smartphone to analyze star patterns - StarSense explorer app automatically generates a list of objects currently visible - Manual altazimuth mount with dual-axis slow-motion controls makes it easy to follow on-screen arrows to your desired target - Refractor with high transmission XLT optical coatings and enough light gathering ability to view all the best celestial objects ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B083JP3QYJ | | Additional Features | App-enabled smartphone sky recognition technology | | Best Sellers Rank | #41,413 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #40 in Telescope Refractors | | Brand | Celestron | | Built-In Media | 1 x Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 102AZ Telescope | | Coating | High Transmission XLT Optical Coatings | | Compatible Devices | iPhone/Android | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 494 Reviews | | Exit Pupil Diameter | 4.08 Millimeters | | Eye Piece Lens Description | Barlow | | Eye piece lens description | Barlow | | Field Of View | 1.05 Degrees | | Finderscope | Reflex | | Focal Length Description | 650 millimeters | | Focus Type | Manual Focus | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00050234224604 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 99D x 43W x 22.8H centimeters | | Item Type Name | Telescope | | Item Weight | 14.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Celestron Acquisition, LLC | | Manufacturer Part Number | 22460 | | Model Name | StarSense Explorer | | Model Number | 22460 | | Model name | StarSense Explorer | | Mount | Altazimuth Mount | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Metal batteries required.

Please note that the cradle is shipped rotated 180 degrees to prevent the locking knob from damaging the box in transit, so you will need to rotate the mounting cradle 180 degrees (using the knob as a lever) before attaching the scope and phone dock. **Q: Can i use their starsense app with other telescopes as well or will it work only on their starsense telescopes?** A: If you contact Celestron through their website, they are very good about getting back to you. **Q: What is the length of the optical tube? What is the height of the folded tripod? Can it fit in the luggage for travel?** A: Hi! Our telescope is assembled, so a little hard to measure, but the optical tube is approximately 31 inches long and the folded tripod is about 33 inches. **Q: What is included in the DX 102 package?** A: I do not remember what one I got, but it tells you in item discription what it comes with ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Beginner scope *by S***N on 24 February 2026* Really love the product and build quality!
