Vortex Razor UHD Binoculars - 4 Things You Must Know Before You Buy

Considering the new Vortex Razor UHD Binoculars? I discuss four really important things that you need to know before buying or upgrading to the new Vortex Razor UHD Binoculars from the older Vortex Razor HD.

✅Update No2: My Full Review of the Vortex Razor UHD 10x42 Binoculars in now live on the BBR website: https://www.bestbinocularsreviews.com/Vortex-Razor-UHD-10x42-Binoculars-Review-255.htm & I am currently working on the video review.

✅Update No1: Many thanks to Dan Lockshaw for supplying the following information which he got from the sell sheets he just received from Vortex Optics:
The prisms used in the new Vortex Razor UHD Binoculars are the Abbe Koenig design:

Using Abbe Koenig prisms is interesting as it also explains why the UHD models are longer and heavier than the HD Razors. This will also be the main difference that I was searching for between the HD and UHD models:

So whilst Abbe Koenig prisms are not as compact as the more commonly used Schmidt-Pechan design used in the HD, the big advantage of this design is that all surfaces on the Abbe-Koenig prisms reflect 100% of the light that hits them and thus they do not require highly reflective coatings, like the dielectric ones used on the HD models.

Abbe-Koenig prisms also have a longer focal length which I believe results in lower color & spherical aberrations than an equivalent level Schmidt-Pechan prism.

I make no secret of the fact that the Vortex Razor series and in particular the HD is one of my favorite binocular ranges of all time.

Indeed these 8x42 Vortex Razor HDs won the BBR binocular of the year award way back in 2012 and I have now had these ones as my own personal pair for almost a decade and still feel that it is one of the best binoculars that I have ever used.

As well as this, I also use this Vortex Razor as a high-end benchmark in many of my tests and it is one of the pairs that all others must aspire towards and it still remains one of my go-to instruments that I use almost on a daily basis.

HD to UHD
So I have to admit that it brought a slight lump in my throat when I discovered that Vortex Optics was introducing the new Razor UHD series that would replace these trusty Razor HD’s as their flagship range.

But I guess just by the fact of how long this binocular has remained at the top and the flagship model at Vortex, which has now grown to become one of the most respected binocular manufacturers in the world is a testament to just how good it is.

Therefore, having said all this, it stands to reason that the successor is going to have to be pretty special and has a lot to live up to.

HD-to-UHD-02
My next thought was should I upgrade and get the new Vortex Razor UHD Binoculars or should I stick with these for just a bit longer?

So with that in mind, I have now done a whole bunch of research, contacted Vortex Optics and studied all their specifications and features very closely and in this video I am going to highlight what I believe are the most important things that you need to know before deciding if the new Vortex Razor UHD binoculars are the ones for you, how much better are they than the Razor HD, is the extra money worth it and if they are, which model is best suited to your needs.

I would like to make it completely clear that like all the reviews and advice that I give on the BBR video channel and website, this is my honest and completely genuine opinion and I am in no way compensated to describe a binocular in a particular way or with a bias.
