I'd better post it here so as not to produce too much offtopic in the other thread:
3034X HD is little more than 5034X but 12bit and the nice 12" display.
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/new-scope-demoboard-from-batronix/msg5337200/#msg5337200That would be new to me Rob, but I would be very happy if the SDS3034X HD had a 12" display.
It is no longer a secret that not only the 800X HD, but also the 1000X HD and the 3000X HD are coming.
When it was certain that the 3000 model would also be launched on the global market, I spontaneously decided to buy one.
I've already pre-ordered it, so when it arrives I'll open an explicit thread about it.
Why another scope?
I loved my SDS2000X HD, I would never be able to use it to its full potential, at least as far as my hobby projects are concerned.
But...
Once again, it was the small but subtle differences that persuaded me to spend money again.
Twice the maximum sample rate, twice the maximum bandwidth, twice the FFT memory points and the "Probus" interface were the points that persuaded me to buy it.
The color of the casing, the display and the lack of a video output are rather arguments against it.
But not so serious as not to do it.
More on this (why display) in my new thread then.
Since I ordered the SDS3034X HD, I also know its price.
And that's where it gets interesting.
"Of course" it costs more than the SDS2104X HD, but considering the price I paid for it in 2022, it's surprisingly less than you might think.
So I wonder what will happen to the old models when the new three model series are presented at the end of this month.
Will the 2000X HD series become cheaper again (it has already become about 500€ cheaper) to keep the distance?
What about the old SDS5000X?
What will happen to the SDS1000X-E when the 800 arrives?
Will people still buy an SDS2000xplus when the SDS1000X HD is available? Or the SDS2000x HD becomes much cheaper?
Questions, questions...
