There are some applications where touchscreens really suck because they require you to be looking at the screen - in-car systems come to mind.
However for a scope, you will pretty much always be looking at the screen when making any adjustment. The only exception I can think of is pressing a start/stop button while holding a probe - and this could be addressed by having this function as [optionally] a large button at the corner with audio feedback.
A touchscreen would be better than the button interface used on pretty much all portable scopes. Knobs on a scope are more about familiarity than useability -
if done well, a touchscreen could be as good if not better than knobs, but it does require good UI design and fast implementation. A slow,laggy TS would be complete game-over.
I have yet to see
any Chinese- designed product with a UI that's been designed rather than just thrown together, and for something like this, the UI design and implementation is extremely important, so I'm not holding out much hope. We need to see a video of it being used.
70MHZ,100MHz,150MHz,200MHz,300MHz,350MHz,500MHz,600MHz,1GMHz.
That's a stupid number of different options - half that number would make more sense
From the pics the case looks like cheap ABS.
Considering they haven't even bothered to get a native English speaker to proof-read their website, I really don't hold out much hope, unless they prove to be really responsive to user feedback and issue regular firmware updates, again something we've never seen from any Chinese test equipment company so far.
Something like this from any manufacturer
will have bugs and features which can be improved, so the response and committment to improvement is what distinguishes a good manufacturer from a cheapskate box-shifter.
I hope I'm proved wrong, but the odds seem against...
