well, if you need 4CH: go for the Siglent SDS1104 -- best bang for the buck
It looks exactly like the Owon SDS1104.
Max Record Length: 20K is a bit low these days.

How problematic is the max record length?

It is stay away from it problematic.
It is horrible deal.
For the specs that scope should cost 100-150 USD.
I do plan on maybe using this to work on communication protocols like I2C, do you think this might be an issue?
I would normally agree but also anticipate some of the current Siglent SDS1104XE owners upgrading to the newer SDS800 series which should inturn increase the number of earlier scopes available in the second hand market.
If the price is right then a used SDS1104XE in good condition would still be worth serious consideration particularly for somebody on a budget. If the OP is not in a desperate rush for a scope then this would be my recommendation, cheaper than new and far superior to what they are currently considering.
I keep seeing that for this price (~200 USD), you can get better scopes?

I just saw someone buy a second hand SDS1104XE for 540 bucks+postage on aus ebay, so prices are not going down that much. New one is still close to 700 on AppVision. I think the scope market is just too slow in Australia and some people don't know about 800X series. We are still yet to see 800Xs here. Everybody else has them for sale but not Australia (and our friends across the ditch). Perhaps wait until the end of financial year to get better deals.
I don't know what the market looks like in Australia, but I have been watching various sites here in the US in hopes of finding a deal on a used Siglent SDS1104XE or Rigol1054DZ. So far, the only things I'm finding are people offering them, used, for prices HIGHER than what I can get them brand new from Amazon.
