Any reason to get an SDS1104X-E over the SDS804X HD? Or a DS1054Z over a DHO804?
Only as a back up scope and if you can get it cheap. Once you try these new 12bit scopes you, there will be no going back.
I think it's been summarised a number of times. Besides the amazing level of detail on a 12 bit scope, you also get:
- Faster aquisition speed
- Better waveform capture rate, I was able to see a glitchy signal MUCH faster than before
- Better bandwidth (after improvement I could trigger up to 780Mhz)
- Better noise floor (specs say 70uV, but it is better)
- Better sensitivity (0.5mv/div)
- More memory (up to 100Mpts)
- More math stuff (like really more)
- Hardware frequency counter - I LOVE IT (registers up to ~ 600Mhz)
- Screen quality is amazing, better resolution
- Capacitive touch screen (On 800X, steam deck screen protectors fit great)
P.S. I wish someone made an old vs new comparison video.
