I bought this compass over a year ago and I’m still very satisfied with it. It points north accurately, and it shows the temperature quite well. The attachment seems weak, so I don’t clip it on. At home, I use it to check the temperature in the bedroom, and outdoors I keep it in my pocket. I recommend this product.

It would be okay if it weren’t for the fact that the plastic cracks at the attachment point just from normal carrying. It’s simply poor material quality — this is already my second compass like this, and in both cases it ended the same way: after a few months, the plastic cracks, you can’t attach a carabiner, and the whole point of a pocket compass is lost.

A useful backpack accessory, the temperature is not very accurate, but rather correct. The compass worked fine. The price seems a bit too high. I haven't tested the carabiner, so I can't comment on it.
-
A very handy compass with a thermometer in one, solid and fits well in the hand. The carabiner is strong :) I recommend it as a small gadget for a backpack.
-
The compass and thermometer work properly. Perfect as an additional or backup compass for short trips.
-
The Silva Pocket Compass is an excellent and small keychain with a thermometer—easy to use and always on hand. It works great with GPS navigation and in emergency situations. The set includes a carabiner for attaching to your backpack!
-
The compass works quite well, while the thermometer measures slowly – which is understandable. The problem is if the thermometer falls out. The carabiner broke after one day. Not worth the money spent.
-
I wear the compass clipped to my backpack, it's very light and doesn't swing around. It quickly shows the direction. Checking the temperature has already become a habit at every stop – it's a very practical feature.
-
Very lightweight and well-made compass. It precisely shows the direction, and the thermometer has a scale every 5 degrees, but it displays the correct temperature. The carabiner is small, but surprisingly solid for its size.
-
Great keychain, does its job well. It's good to have on your backpack, even if you don't use it often. It's nice to check the temperature from time to time.
-
It fulfills its function as a compass, indicates north well, and also works as a thermometer. The ring bends easily, so it's better to attach it to a carabiner right away to avoid losing it.
-
It shows directions and temperature well. As a backup gadget for the backpack, it works well.
-
