The dot is crisper than most other red dots I’ve used (Vortex, Trijicon, Redfield, Burris, Bushnell). It has a slight starburst effect but is better than most others, at least in my experience.

I got 2 of these and both were not crisp, had shadows and/or star effect. Returned both. Holographic is the only way to go. LED reflex all have crappy resolution. not just holosun.
