We praised this telescope's 'legendary performance,' and the whole range is even cheaper for Prime Day

Looking for a beginner-friendly telescope? Then you'll love Celestron's Nexstar SE range of go-to telescopes, which takes all the work out of stargazing. And, from the entry-level 4SE to the top-tier 8SE, their prices have been slashed for Prime Day. Save $100 on the Celestron Nexstar 4SE and $200 on the 8SE at Amazon — both of which we have reviewed and rate highly. As our expert noted, you can find objects in the sky in a matter of seconds; with the 4SE that'll be planets and bright objects, while with the 8SE you can also spy far-reaching deep-space objects. Whichever model you go for, you'll never be lost in the cosmos again.
