4 channel Keysight 1000x series scope

Mr. Scram:
"Protocol Trigger & Decodes    I²C, SPI, UART and CAN, LIN (optional)" Oh?

Sounds like they're dropping their 2000 series. In the 1000X flyer it says "Need more bandwidth, sampling rate, and analysis? Consider the InfiniiVision 3000T X-Series"

The landing page for 1000x still shows 2000x as need more... Although the only thing the 1000x now don't have the 2000 do is 8ch MSO... I wouldn't blame them if the did drop the 2000.

Edit: My bad, the 2000 also has up to 4x the wfms/s

Like I said earlier, it wouldn't surprise me to see a new arch show up for the rest of the X-line within a year or two. But who knows. I've been wrong before, yhey might have decided that they want to thin out the linup also. :)

I could see a split like this being a thing, otherwise:

x1000 old arch, no probe compensation
x2000 new arch, +DSO, still no probe comp
x3000 new arch, +probe comp, +50 Ohm.
x4000 new arch, +bigger screen + really deep mem, +additional arb port.
x6000 new arch, up to 8 channels.

Hydrawerk:
Well, I still do not see much reasons to buy this scope instead of DSOX2000 series, when it is based on the same ASIC. Maybe if you need a little 4 channel scope. 1000x has only 150Vrms input voltage. DSOX2000 has 300Vrms probably, the datasheet is a bit unclear. Yes the 1000x is a lot cheaper.

I assume by "probe comp" you're really meaning AutoProbe (at least the more limited version the 3/4/6 series has).

The list you have does roughly make sense, I'd probably say new 4k probably keeps at least a small bandwidth bump over 3k.

It's the 6k I'm not sure about, it's a wonderful scope (I love mine), but it's very close in many ways to the S-series, so it would need something special to keep it post-refresh, especially if the 4k was also being kept. One possibility might be to somehow allow the scope to be hooked up to a Windows PC via thunderbolt (external PCIe) to turn it into a full Windows-running scope when needed.

I'd also guess that we'd see the models released in the same order as they were for the current run, so a 2k & 3k first, then about a year later a 4k, and another year or two for the 6k, and as old as these models are, other than perhaps competing with the (lower end of the) new Tek 5k series at the high end, and some of the R&S units, I don't think the pressure is there to move as fast as they could.

Remember there's been no firmware update since late 2017 for most of these models.
