The NexGO is an ideal entry point into the world of astroimaging and digiscoping. It lets you pair your smartphone with a wide variety of optical instruments, making it easy to capture detailed views of the Moon, wildlife, or distant landscapes.
Universal Compatibility
NexGO fits eyepieces from 25.4mm to 44.45mm (1.0"–1.75") in diameter—perfect for most 1.25" telescope eyepieces, spotting scopes, binoculars, monoculars, and microscopes.
The adapter supports a broad range of smartphones, including the latest models from Apple, Samsung, and Google. Most phones fit with their case still on, and a booster pad is included for smaller devices under 5" tall.
