    At this price point these lens are basic and simple as expected, but you can't really go wrong as these are great value. It comes with three lenses, Extreme Fish Eye, Extreme Wide Angle and Macro and they're all pretty handy and easy to use. Essentially a small clip with some threading is provided and you simply screw on whatever lens you want to use, clip the clip onto your phone over the camera, remove the lens cap and you're ready to go!

    It can be a little tricky lining up the lens to your camera, but with a few tries practice, you'll get it faster each time.

    Fish Eye: This is an extreme fish eye and so it gets more 'bulbous' the close your get to your subject. Very handy for a lot of different kind of cool shots.

    Wide angle: This is essentially used to fit 'more' in the shot and is especially useful for group selfies. While I don't find myself using this one as much, I know people who swear by it.

    Macro: My favourite. If the picture is blurry, you're not close enough, or too close. This is a pretty zoomed in macro that will allow you to see some details that are barely visible with the naked eye, such as the fibres that make up clothing, very cool. A fun way to test a macro lens is to take some cool eye shots, as eyes are very interesting up close.

    Just an overall sturdy basic lens set that would work for any beginner of mobile photography or anyone looking to get a little more out of their cell phone camera.

    Note: I tested these lens with an LG G3.
