Excellent performance. Easily ranged a cactus at 1750y and I’m confident will go further. AB ballistic calculator with on board atmospheric sensors was spot on 2 matches in a row out to the furthest targets at 1017y. This is a very good piece of equipment.

I haven't spent a lot of time using these yet, just fooling around learning the buttons. Pairing it with a phone and using the app to set it up has a little learning curve to it, but there is a ton of functionality built into it. Vortex's videos on YouTube really help. I had read that a lot of rangefinders don't align the laser with the reticle very well, but these seem to be centered. I tested them on a thin metal pole a little over 200m away with nothing behind it for over 1000m. Vertical and horizontal shots with the laser returned when the pole was centered in the reticle. A great feature of the AB model is the wind capture. Just point it into the wind and hit the button, then turn and lase the target to figure a more accurate wind call. I like the glass in the Vortex binos better than the Sigs, which have a really noticeable blue tint. I haven't really tested the laser to its limits, but I've lased vehicles at over 1000m and buildings over 2000m. So far I'm impressed with these. Looks like to get any better(IMO), you would have to spend twice as much.

Great glass quality. Wind setting and range calcs work good. Once the app is paired it works seamlessly. I like the auto bright feature.

These AB binos are a game changer.
Uploading ballistic profiles is simple and accurate, I've validated dope to 1000 yards so far and the corrections have been spot on.
I read a lot of reviews about the glass being poor with blueish distortion, my experience is totally opposite.
The image quality is better than my Zeiss binos, and I mean by a lot.
Clarity, brightness, and contrast are what you'd expect in an expensive optic.
I'm impressed

I haven’t had the opportunity to use these much yet. One thing I noticed right away was the battery indicator says the battery is low. I’ve bought 2 new batteries and also tested the batteries and the indicator still reads low.

Have had them for less than a month, but they have met or exceeded my expectations so far. Functionally do everything that was advertised and condition was better than the like new description as they were still completly new in the box. Very happy so far

Extremely like new.
The right eye has a noticeable green/blue tint. The tint is worse than a set of Swaro's I looked through. Setting the focus was a bit different. I focused the right eye to the image rather than the screen. The screen was a bit fuzzy but that avoided eye-strain.
The button layout looks more complicated than it is. Once you program the app you don't need to think about the buttons too much.
Tested Elevation, worked well out to 1000 for 338LM. The time between showing distance and drop compensation is a bit slow. I wish that the screen switched faster.
Rangefinder works pretty quickly and was accurate.
