An awesome lens for your smart phone
First off, be aware that this is macro only. There are other kit options available that include wide angle and telephoto. This kit comes well packed in a plastic case. The clip is strong and does a good job holding the lens in place. I am using it on an iPhone X but have also tried it on an iPhone 6 plus. I orient the clip so it is braced against the phone so it is less likely to shift. Once in place it does pretty well staying in there. I have found that it does cover the camera icon on the screen and it does cover the one control when the camera is open. This has cost me a picture on occasion but it is not a big deal. the whole set will go in my pocket and it is easy to carry. There are two lenses in this kit. Both are 12X so with both in place you have a 24X image. You get some vignetting from the lens but if you use the screen zoom it takes care of that. Don't zoom too far though or it will quit working. You do have to get quite close to the object, especially in the 24X mode. The picture quality is quite good. Does it match up with an expensive macro lens on a full frame digital SLR? No, but this is inexpensive and the picture quality is better than acceptable. As with all macro lenses any motion in the camera or the object will cause blurring. If a tripod is not available or usable try to brace on something solid to reduce any motion. If using a tripod it can be worthwhile getting a remote shutter release. Another concern with any macro lens is that the depth of field will be quite flat. You can video with these lenses. Pro: small and easily carried. good picture quality very fun to use inexpensive Con: small and easily lost it can shift so you have to reset the lens you have to get very close to object--not a good idea when object will sting or bite I definitely recommend this lens set Have fun

nice clip-on macro lens
This is my favorite budget macro lens for cell phones. It has a good clear lens and decent magnification. The spring clip is strong and stays in place well. I use it for insect photography and closeups of flower parts. You do have to get close to the subject. The 12x lens can take good pictures of slowly moving insects. The 24x really only works on things that don't move. The pictures were taken with the 12x lens, outside, with handheld phone with no additional lighting or editing.

Not good for phones with multiple lenses
Said it worked on iPhone 11 Pro, but you cannot get it to sit correctly and it’s only for one lens and the pro has three lenses.

SHARP! Excellent image quality, but 24x is difficult to use.
I received the kit last week, and I was eager to go to the field to test it. Finally last weekend I could test the kit. Using both lenses (24x) is very difficult, considering the magnification (I wonder what really "24x" means), and that you should practically touching the subject. So I unscrewed and put the lens with the cap into the box, to test only one lense (12x). The image quality is VERY good, but you have to manage how to get sharp focused subject. I imagine that both lenses + cup is intended to be used more in a lab or studio environment, with controlled light and movement. However, I totally recommend this lense, as it is portable, can be used in a variety of brands, it is easy to attach/detach from the phone. You may check my instagram gallery (rcorteschile), with some shots using Apexel 12x lense. It worth to try!

one of the few "macro lens ONLY" aftermarket lens packages
when I use aftermarket lens packages, I've noticed that the macro lens in that package gets the most use by far. I've also lost or broken a lot of those lenses. I have a Lifeproof Fre SHOT case for iPhone 6 which comes with a wide angle lens that screws right into the case (love it). I don't, however, ever USE the wide angle and was hoping this macro lens would. Well it did and I'm very happy with it. The price was very reasonable too. Olloclip makes a macro-only kit, but the $80 price tag is a bit more than I want to spend. The 24x macro has severe "vignetting" (only the center of image is in focus) and I'm not sure if that's unavoidable when one tries to magnify an iPhone camera that much but it does magnify the parts in focus effectively. Overall I'm pretty satisfied and would buy it again if I lost/broke it. I've included pics of the lens on my phone and some magnified lens of ben & jerry's ice cream and some pills that were laying around. Oh yeah, I DO use the clip when I need close ups on my iPad 10.5" and it fits well.

24x is too much!
I love the 11x lens but I the the 24x is a bit too much. The pics are with my standard Pixel 6a camera then the 12x and finally the 24x.
