Effective lens that is worth the price.
With a lot of thought I finally decided to buy this product. Wasn't sure if this would work but I just took the leap of faith.Pro's1. Amazing packing, it comes with a nice small case to carry the lens around with good padding so that there are no scratches. Also a lens cleaning cloth is provided to wipe of marks on the lens.2. Lens quality is good for the price range and the details have been captured well.3. Three varieties of lens are provided a) Wide angle b) fish eye c) macro4. The fish eye and macro basically change the perspective of your inbuilt camera. But the clear winner is the macro which shows amazing details of products which are shot up close.5. The clip is pretty safe to use and there is a padding that does not scratch your screen. It also is pretty stable while you shoot your pics.6. It comes with a nice belt clip which makes it easy to carry.7. Most importantly this specific lens can be used with any camera phones. I use a redmi note 4 and the pictures that's in the review were shot after unboxing the lens and it has not been edited.Con's1. The only issue is if you have a thick phone case you might have to remove it to mount the lens but if you use thin cases that should not be a problem.Overall if you are looking for a cost effective good quality lens this is the one to consider.There are a few more expensive lenses from skyvik and looking at this I'm sure they would be better but this is sufficient for a start.

Head for Pro photography
I bought this lens for Rs.1699 on an offer price. The lenses have little weight which gives this a real feel. The delivery and packaging is good. Protected in a leather box (good quality and protective) which also has a lens cleaning cloth and a pouch. The 20x macro lens does a pretty good job. It magnifies the object with background blurred which makes macro photo awesome. Wide angle lens attached to the macro lens gives a good wide picture frame. Fish eye lens leave a vignette around it, giving 1/3 rd of picture frame only. I am using one plus 6 , along with lens it gives very good picture quality with no haziness. Lens quality is good. Overall worth for money, and i love using the skyvik lens

Could be better
I liked that packing and the build quality of the product. As it is small, it is compact. However, being small has its disadvantages: it's useful only without the phone cover. Aligning the lens with the camera to avoid vignetting takes some time. And it's not possible to completely get rid of vignetting (mechanical vignetting) due to lens size. If it was bigger, vignetting would not be a problem although it compromises the compactness. So every time I need to take a photograph, I have to remove my phone cover to attach the lens and align properly. It's pretty time consuming.Macro lens: I think 15x magnification is an overkill. When the magnification is increases, the area of focus decreases. Since there is no electronic contact between lens and the camera, you have to physically move to the subject (or bring the subject closer to the camera) for focus. The issue in such case is the phone will cast a shadow on the subject. And that demands for a fill flash which is practically not possible to use with a smartphone. I have had this issue while using this lens. So a 10x would be ideal to use with a smart phone as it gives good area of focus with adequate distance between subject and camera. The plane of focus is fixed one distance so it's not possible to focus on any other distance. The sharpness is quite good with this macro lens.Wide angle lens: Vignetting is present because of small size. Heavy distortion on the edges but that is expected for a any smartphone lenses.Fish eye lens: I don't know why would anyone want to use a fish eye lens that would give images with a prominent vignette. It's just unpleasant to look at. The rule of thumb is any vignetting is bad for a photograph unless the photographer wants it.Here are my suggestions:Keep the magnification to 10x. It will increase the area of focus and helps you to focus on different distances. It means better composition.Make bigger lenses: It helps to use the lens with phone cover avoid vignetting due to lens alignment. Although it compromises the compactness, serious Photographers would not mind it.Discontinue the fish eye lens: Unless you are using it as a decoy to make people to buy this lens kit, discontinue it. It doesn't add any value. Invest more in the macro lens and wide angle lens.

Lens edges visible on picture corners.
I dont recommend them, may be all brand lenses are defected.. or may be these only.Firstly,These lenses have a very short dia, therefore, black edges of the lens are visible on the corners of every picture, hardly adjustable at one point, on cameras of most phones. I tried it with samsung j7 prime. Edges have destroyed all my pictures.It worked fine fon iphone 6 (since its camera is very small in dia).So, these lenses do not have a provision to use it with "any phone" with "different camera size". They require small and circular cameras only.Secondly, the macro lens needs to be kept toooooooo close to the object to capture its zoomed view (2-3 cms away only), or else entire picture will be blur. You cannot get zoomed view of a bigger object. Finally whatever the picture you get within the range of 2 or 3 cms, clarity of that picture is not uniformly distributed. On picture, somewhere its blur, somewhere its clear. Blur-ness has no particular pattern (pattern here i mean, for example: focussing the object leaving the background blur).Thirdly, u need to remove your phone cover (without that, ur phone may accidently slip out of ur hand any time due to lack of grip.. may be into water or on road, down the mountain. So be careful π)For front camera, u may also need to remove your screen guard ππ
