Actually, they reduced the hardware of SDS1000x HD a lot, I didn't like it very much.
Unfortunately, this is the wrong approach.
The 1000X series was previously the entry series with good but limited models that reached up to 1Gsa/s and 14Mpts memory.
Now the 1000X HD has come onto the market.
It is so improved that it is no longer comparable to the predecessors of the 1000 series.
50Ohm inputs, autosense probes, 100Mpt memory, touchscreen, 10" display, more decoders, 4 channels of math, digital filters, etc, etc.
The 1000X HD is not reduced, it is the best 1000X model.
To compare it with the 3000X HD is simply not correct.
