As the name suggests, Minox designed their 8x25 X-active Binoculars to allow you to move fast, find game, and track it—to be your go-to optic that you'll keep in your hunting kit year round.

Proprietary M* anti-reflection multi-coatings on the lenses and phase-corrected roof prisms transmit bright and clear high-contrast images with true neutral color rendition and crisp clarity. Their moderate 8x power magnifies the view to scan the terrain, identify your target, and maintain your distance without it seeing or smelling you—all while preserving a comfortable exit pupil and eye relief. The 25mm objectives keep the form factor highly compact and light to maneuver easily without excessive movement that can spook game and won't weigh you down when you're stalking or walking all day.

Utilizing an open-bridge/dual-hinge configuration helps to cut weight without sacrificing stability while providing plenty of room to wrap your hands completely around the optical tubes for a better grip, even if you need to use them one-handed. The chassis is made of a lightweight and durable aluminum alloy wrapped in a protective armor that provides a slip-resistant grip—especially in cold and wet weather. The optical tubes are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be resistant to internal fogging and also waterproof and submersible to 16'—so the X-active binoculars will fair better than you if they tumble into a stream or pond.
