I do not even understand why Rigol fans are so alarmed about this Siglent model.
some like blonde and some like redheads.
Can someone please do a real test on the decoder functionality in the oscilloscope?
(very quick teardown video)
What Dave shows is definitely a bug because it isn't consistent. If it is some kind of persistence mode then I'd expect the previous acquisition to show in a darker shade so the most recent acquisition is clear to distinguish (for example: Tektronix does this on some models). Normal mode or single mode doesn't matter. In either case the last acquisition should be shown and not two different acquisitions.
But if designer make it more sophisticated there also can be user selectable choice - if designer want do it. Leave last acguisitions (stacked) on the screen or leave only last (after short refresh time).

Any idea when the full review will be posted? Still trying to decide between that and the rigol.
If you're going up to $500 then the Keysight 1000X isn't far away and that's a better 'scope than the Siglent.

How it is better?
Two channels and just everywhere you tell that 4 channel is must.

I'm assured that the firmware isn't full of bugs, that all measurements are 100% perfect. There's a guy from Keysight who talks directly to EEVBLOG users if they find anything.
Also, sorry to derail the thread. I can move my questions elsewhere if necessary.
The 2 channel Siglent didn't have a stellar releaseTwo channels and just everywhere you tell that 4 channel is must.
It's more like 2+1 channels - the trigger input can also be displayed on screen.
I don't recall saying "4 channel is must" but I've often said "2 channels isn't enough".
Are these new X-E models replacing an existing model and if so which one are they going to drop.

The user has the choice already. It’s the stop button. Do we really need an automatic timeout? I for one do not, for sure.

Can the trigger input work like a normal input in that regard (math, measure, etc) or does it just display on the screen? That might work.
Does anyone know the ''high-res'' bit depth and bw limit in high res mode on these things?
Datasheet/manual is not clear on that.
Thanks!
