The Guide TE211M trades the traditional thermal monocular eyepiece for a 1.43-inch AMOLED full-color touchscreen — a display-driven thermal scanner that fits naturally in the hand or chest pocket. Same 256 × 192 12 μm sensor as the standard TE211, but the touchscreen interface lets multiple people view the image at once and removes the eyepiece-fit challenge for users with glasses or wide eye spacing. At $519 it's the only touchscreen-driven thermal monocular at this price.

Key Features

• 1.43" 466 × 466 AMOLED touchscreen with one-button control — view-without-eyepiece operation; share the view, no eye relief calibration
• 256 × 192 @ 12 μm sensor with 30 mK NETD — finer pixel pitch than 17 μm sensors at this price
• 10 mm F1.0 lens with 1.2x – 4.8x magnification — wide square FOV (13.1° × 13.1°) for fast acquisition
• 500 m / 550 yd man-target detection — sized for property work and close-range hunting
• 205 g / 7.23 oz pocket body, 49 × 49 × 111 mm — palm-sized
• Built-in battery, 6-hour runtime with 20W quick charging — fast top-ups between sessions
• WiFi (2.4G + 5G), Bluetooth, 16 GB internal storage — photo/video recording with audio
• Seven image palettes — White Hot, Black Hot, Red Hot, Green Hot, Iron Red, Blue Hot, Sepia
• IP67 weather sealing — rain, dew, dust

Ideal For

• Eyeglass wearers who struggle with traditional eyepiece thermal monoculars — touchscreen removes the eye-relief variable entirely
• Property owners doing nighttime checks — pull from pocket, hold up, view; no head-mount adjustment
• Anyone sharing observations with a partner — both can see the screen simultaneously, where eyepiece monoculars are single-user
• First-time thermal buyers who want a familiar phone-like interface rather than a dedicated optic

Accessories & Compatibility

• Optional Bluetooth remote control available for hands-free operation
• TargetIR app pairs via WiFi for media transfer
• 10-year manufacturer warranty backed by Guide's US-based repair center in Texas
