The Unistellar eVscope 2 isn’t a conventional telescope. The second-gen reflector belongs to the nascent-but-burgeoning category of “smart” telescopes, which forgo many of the design elements of traditional scopes and replace them with more sophisticated components, such as a built-in camera system and AI-backed computer software.
Unistellar was kind enough to send us a demo unit of its latest smart scope, the eVscope 2, to play around and stargaze with for a couple of weeks. This is our review.
DESIGN
Right away, the first thing you’ll notice about the eVscope 2 is how good it looks. As far as telescopes go, this is a true showpiece. The gunmetal-gray-and-black tube is sleek and sophisticated and looks wonderfully futuristic atop its all-black mount and matching tripod.
One of our reviewers thought the eVscope 2 belonged on the hull of an intergalactic space cruiser. Another said it looked like the world’s coolest raygun. However you describe it, the fact remains: this is an objectively gorgeous instrument.
