Hi!
I am in search of a new (first) budget DSO, and I recently met this SDS1104X-e scope. I have had some analog ones, but I wanted a digital scope for years. I've read various reviews of it, and it seems to be the budget king of this category of scopes. My price point is exactly this scope, about 500Euros max.
I am in absolutely not a hurry buying a DSO, that is why I am asking you for an advice.
Do you think that in this budget scope dump, Siglent or Owon or Rigol, any budget brands will come out with a new model that has even better specifications and worth waiting a few more months?
This scope mentioned in this thread is about 2 years old, still way newer than the Rigol 1054Z, but I wonder if a new buyer with moderate, but certainly not beginner electrical experience should wait some more time.
I have seen the new Rigol DS1202Z-e, but it is only 2 channel, and I wasn't able to find and pros compared to the Siglents. Perhaps Rigol might come out with an upgraded 4-banger.
