Regarding the front panel:
===================
On the right side of the screen you have the control panel.
It seems that there are 4 small openings in that area: 2 on the left and 2 on the right.
Would that mean that you can remove it, and that it is some sort of latch mechanism?
Or why are those openings there at all?
Regarding the price comparison between Siglent and Rigol:
==========================================
Is it really correct to compare the Siglent SDS1202X with the Rigol DS2202?
The SDS1000X series does only have a 1GS/s sample rate, whereas the DS2000 series has a 2 GS/s sample rate. While the bandwidth is the same, the sample rate isn't.
Of course, there is no other Rigol scope that is a better fit, as the DS1000Z series does have 1 GS/s,
but it comes with 4 channels, and it does not come in a 200 MHz bandwidth model.
Regarding the measured waveform update rate:
===================================
Initially the waveform update rate was measured on the Siglent.
It turned out that in vector mode it is around 10K waveforms/s. Much lower than the advertised value.
Then the Rigol was tested. Using the same method it was measured to be around 45K waveforms/s.
But when the second channel was activated on the Rigol, the waveform update rate almost lowered by a factor of 10.
After that observation it was concluded that Siglent might actually be better, when 2 channels are used.
But was this actually tested? I can't see in the video that the second channel was active when the measurement of 10K waveforms/s was made!

It might be that the waveform update rate also reduces significantly on the Siglent.
Making it even lower than 10K waveforms/s when the second channel is active.
