First & foremost, it is a device for looking at waveforms, not reading numbers off a screen filled with clunky "graphics" just because they are "trendy".
Yeah, it's much better to count the squares manually and say things like, "Three and a bit volts, 600-odd Hertz..."
My comment was directly referring to
mrisco's posting about the "full screen" mod for the Rigol.
I have no argument with showing measurements, but I do have with Rigol's standard UI, with its very dominant slabs of colour, mismatched fonts, & so on.
Siglent's display is much less "in your face"!
A disclaimer, here---I don't have either DSO brand, or any DSO for that matter, as with the current exchange rate, they are out of my budget.
For "one bright, shining moment" back in the early/mid 2000s, the $A was at better than parity with the mighty greenback, so earlier versions of Rigol, etc DSOs really were cheap.
Sadly, that time is long past, with those old models costing more on eBay secondhand than their new price back then,
Even oldsters like the Tek TDS 210/220 are being offered for around $A400.
When "well heeled Noobs" pose questions in the beginner's section & post screenshots from their "all singing, all dancing" DSOs, those of us who don't own exactly the same device, so they can "play along at home" have perforce, to "count squares".
I have found that the Rigol, Hantek, etc screenshots are much harder to navigate than the Siglent ones.
