You must have very small hands as i use mine one handed all the time. Once they are focused they rarely need adjusting.

Lol actually the opposite, i buy all the protective gloves for work and they fit me a treat and everyone else looks like Jeremy Beadle has them on!
My point about focusing needing both hands is still valid though, as said hopefully this is something that will be addressed with future models.

I’ve just got the 35 4k ones, the last to launch. For me, they are a stop gap until NOCPIX hopefully launch their version. Having used both NOCPIX and Hik scopes, the Hik ones are inferior. The Habrok is good for what it is. Being able to carry one device and switch between nav/optical and thermal is brilliant. Personally, the eye pieces don’t really sit well for me and I don’t like how their menus work, but I can live with that for a while.
The optical is the same in the 50 and 60, it’s just the thermal that is better and to be honest I wasn’t that impressed with the 50. The 60 (1280) is about as good as as my 640 NOCPIX Ace scope. All of them are better than the 7 year old Pulsar thermal spotter they replaced, and I still shot a lot of deer with that.

Ths is exactly my take, thermals have reaches a point where any upgrade is way less remunerative than how much it costs. So we just need spending twice and for gaining 1 or less. Not worth if not for pro use. at least not for me

The 60 is twice the cost of the one I bought, and not twice as good. 18650s are much better for future proofing. I got through four proprietary batteries on my pulsar spotter in 6 or so years, at nearly £100 each. Cheap but good 18650s at £10-15 each are much better even if they only last a season.
Having tried the 3 Habrok variations, the one I use are the 25s.
Reason being, 4K day and the NV unit is the same on all 3, only the thermal offered improvement but for a large cost and woodland, field use mainly, the 25s make more sense.
I tend to use thermal in the twilight setting, black hot as it provides decent image and only a couple of button presses, I'm into 4k image.

I would have staid with the he25 if it only it had the 384x288 sensor that is still a thermal milestone in my view. I do have one axion xq from 4 years now and could not part from it. I struggled using the he25 mainly for the thermal 256x192 that caused me a sort of headache each time had to pick up e heat signature from a thick vegetation backdrop. But this mae depend from the topical italian hunting landscape (not every place here resemble a Tuscany's postcard and I stalk boars & roes in thick bus). Same with the minimum optical enlargement wich is 5.5 while the hq35 starts at 2.9..

my hunting pal just bought it and I have been charged for setting it as.... "expert" (that I am not at all). But having had the 25 and sold it for the 35 HQ I tried to make him aware of the low thermal sensor limitation before he ordered. The lust of the new promoted as "compact" version won on him. First disappointment: the 2.0 is a tad bigger and heavier than the original probably cause of the leverage needed for the central focus system. The second issue is that (to my eyes at least) the separate focusing on the old one is of course slower and a little tricky but works better in my opinion. I had not the time to full test side by side with my 35 but my take is that having the habroks a different channel for day+night time light (left tube) and thermal (right tube) and being each channel dedicated to a different light wawe light it is impossible to have both eyes set at same time. So after focusing You need a new setting of the eyepieces that, infact, appears now in the new version while where not present in the old. As said I am all but a expert but I wasn't able to have the same smart view with the new unit in neither daylight or thermal channel.
I have a HE25L 2.0, first digital bino. good picture especially on day&night. Rear adjuster is a good feature compare to adjust at the front of the lenses like the old one. Having said that, even though it is only 2 months old, I planning to sell it. It was an impulse buy but I need the money to something else. I know I will loose money on it, but Stupidity is part of being a stalker apparently.
