The Unistellar Odyssey and Odyssey Pro (including the red edition) are the latest in a more accessible range of smart telescopes from Unistellar. Smaller, lighter and with even more fully automated controls, astronomers need to do little else than set it up with a mobile device and operate it seamlessly via the app. After our testing we're naming it one of the Best telescopes for beginners and one of the Best smart telescopes , too.
The Odyssey, Unistellar's cheapest smart telescope sits at the bottom of the now four-strong current line-up of telescopes at $2299 MSRP (£1999GBP) the Odyssey Pro is $3999 (£3499GBP) and if you want the Pro in red that'll set you back another $500 at $4499 (£3999GBP). I've reviewed the Odyssey Pro here, tested both in black and red with identical results from each variant. But what does the Odyssey Pro give you above the standard Odyssey? That'll be the eyepiece, jointly developed with camera and lens manufacturer Nikon.
This is a digital eyepiece (a tiny screen) and reflects an identical view that you get in the mobile app. Other than that, these models are identical, according to Unistellar . While the 'expert' range of Unistellar's telescopes (the eVscope 2 and eQuinox 2 ) telescopes aim to fulfil the higher end markets (they cost more and require collimation and manual focusing) the Odyssey is almost exactly the same price as the eQuinox 2, but features a shorter focal length and is lighter.
From what we can see the Odyssey largely replica.
