The only viable alternative would be Siglent.
But not the A-brand manufacturers.
Keysight, Tektronix, LeCroy, R&S are all overpriced for the hobbyist.
So where do the A-brands come in then?
If your boss or your school pays.
If you have money to spare.
If you don't do your homework.
If you just want to show off with your A-brand, and you really don't know what you are doing with an oscilloscope.
If you are dumb.
It's like those photographers who have an expensive Nikon or Canon camera, and they don´t even know the basics of photography.
If you can do a good deal on a second hand A-brand oscilloscope, then it's a different story of course!
