## Overview

The Celestron StarSense Explorer 114AZ is an app-enabled 114mm tabletop Dobsonian telescope that uses patented sky recognition technology to guide beginners through the night sky via smartphone. Compatible with iPhone and Android, it offers sharp views of planets, the Moon, and deep-sky objects, featuring a lightweight, easy-to-use design with curated celestial targets and a 2-year warranty.

## Description

Celestron’s StarSense Explorer 114AZ is the first telescope that uses your smartphone to analyze the night sky and calculate its position in real time, making stargazing easier than ever. Perfect for beginners, this app-enabled telescope lets you dock your phone, launch the app, and follow on-screen arrows to planets, stars, galaxies, and more. Unlike other astronomy apps that rely solely on gyroscopes, StarSense uses patented sky recognition technology and a Lost in Space Algorithm (LISA)—like the sophisticated location systems used by satellites—to deliver accurate, real-time guidance. Simply align your phone with the telescope optics, and within minutes, you’ll be exploring with confidence. The app automatically generates a list of the best objects to view based on your exact time and location. Choose one and navigate there by following the on-screen arrows. When the bullseye turns green, your target is ready in the eyepiece. The high-quality 114mm Newtonian reflector with highly reflective coatings provides bright, detailed views of the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, and deep-sky favorites like the Orion Nebula and Andromeda Galaxy. The tabletop base is compact, lightweight, and easy to transport, making it perfect for travel. The base’s low profile makes accessing the eyepiece easier for some observers (especially children). Includes two eyepieces (10mm and 17mm), a red dot finderscope, and a StarSense smartphone dock. StarSense Explorer works with most modern smartphones; it is compatible with Android 12 and later, as well as iOS 18 and newer, including iPhone XR and newer models.

Review: Great product - I got this telescope as an upgrade to my simpler telescope from the same brand, and I was impressed by its quality. I feel it is quite easy to use. (The app and the computer program are also pretty awesome, and they make everything much easier to see and to make sense of!) The assembly part was fairly easy, but the instruction manual is not very helpful. That would be my one criticism of the product. It is very sturdy, and the base sets easily on a table or the ground. It is stable, and the view angle is adequate and easy to adjust. The lens that came with it and we got some great viewings of the moon and planets. This item was not cheap but I feel it delivers great quality for the money.
Review: Great beginner telescope! - This is a great beginner telescope. There is some assembly required, but the directions were clear and easy to understand. The optics are good for the size and price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great beginner telescope!
*by C***E on January 9, 2026*

This is a great beginner telescope. There is some assembly required, but the directions were clear and easy to understand. The optics are good for the size and price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth the stars
*by E***N on October 27, 2025*

The Celestron StarSense Explorer 114AZ is an amazing telescope for beginners and casual stargazers! The setup was quick and straightforward, and the StarSense app makes finding planets, stars, and constellations incredibly easy — no more guessing where to point. The optics are clear and crisp, and the mount feels stable for its size. I was able to see the Moon’s craters and even Saturn’s rings on my first night out! It’s lightweight enough to move around but still feels solid. Great for anyone who wants to explore the night sky without a steep learning curve. Highly recommend!
