However, some say that they are not always able to get great focus on the eyes 100% of the time, and that the ring is narrow and at the front of the lens.

For what you pay you're getting a nice piece of glass and metal. The sliding aperture ring is smooth and you're not limited to clicked stops - so you need to be really aware of where you're at on the aperture settings. It's small so you need to get used to the small turning radius of the focus ring - very slight turns for adjusting focus - that's why I like the focus magnification on my A6500 - plus set focus peaking to mid range yellow... other wise it's overwhelming.
It's tack sharp at about f4 with a bit of softening in the edges and slight vignetting, but over F4 it's clean. It's really fun to use as a black and white lens for street shooting. (I'll post images soon). The unusual focal length is cool - between 20mm and 30mm lenses so it's a nice mid wide angle.
But once again - it's a truly fun lens - well built and even if you're a pro - I'm going to bet this will be a surprise in quality and just fun factor!
Well this lens to the rescue. I saw it, no reviews yet but for the price I jumped on it and paid extra to get it here quick. Short and to the point this thing is awesome. Great bokeh. Is a $600 lens better? Probably, but I don't know. I don't have that kind of money, so can't compare. I've attached a few test shots though. Bare in mind it's going to take me awhile to learn to manual focus well. I may need to turn on focus peeking. But this is still worth it and 9 out of 10 times you need to adjust the auto focus anyway. So really no - points for it being manual.
It's got smooth adjustment rings, with the focus being at the front and 0.6-16ft then infinity. 1.8-16f
It's nice and sharp as well.
Example photos:
Strawberry patch, good example of background blur
Kohlrabi front and back blur
Dog inside, dark background nice details
Dog outside, I over exposed him but nice background and nice grass detail
Grass seeds: lighter blur with high F#
Paw and rug: shows detail capable, this was an extreme crop
Crop of Holiday lights
Holiday lights at 1.8f
It came in a nice black box. So would make a great gift.
Seriously I'm thrilled with this thing. I'm sure someone will come along and compare to the more expensive lenses. These reviews usually show miner differences, like sharpness in the corners but that's not why you buy a low F prime lens. You buy it for sharp main subject and that nice bokeh, and this has both.
The ring on the front for filters and such is 46mm, should you want to use filters.
It's a bit longer than the kit lens(when not extended).
It is metal construction.
And it did come with the cleaning kit in the product photo, gloves and all.
The only down side I found is, due to it being manual, the aperture does not record in the exif and shows as 0.0 F number and 1.0 max f on all photos taken with it. That's a bit of a bummer, especially if you post in photo groups who ask for the exif. But it's still a minor inconvenience and the quality matters much more.
If this were auto focus it would be my main lens, but auto focus would make it cost more. As it is I'm using it a lot for non-moving subjects and having lots of fun with it.

The distance marking is not very accurate. The focusing turns clockwise to focus far which is in opposite direction from other emount lenses. These are minor issues for me.
The picture quality is surprisingly good. It’s pretty sharp. There are some vignetting and visible barrel distortion. These can be easily corrected in Lightroom. The attached photos were not post processed.
In all, this is a very nice budget manual focus lens

I have uploaded two (cropped) photos to illustrate the depth of focus possible with the 1.8 aperture, and the flare which can happen from some types of lamps at night.
Update 11/29/2017
I have taken many more test shots at night, and the artifacts I saw on my first test with the one lamp are not typical. There is still some flaring, but it is not generally as distracting as in my earliest examples, and I think this lens is suitable for nighttime photography. I will leave the example as something that can happen, but am revising my rating from 4 to 5 stars since such flaring is not typical - just something to watch for.

Edit: I forgot to mention - it has great bokeh. Very pleasant. That and the colour qualities make this a great lens for the price. For shots with shallow depth of field (lots of background blur), you don't notice the blurry corners.
