On the other hand, the Hameg might not be so easy to operate. The SINGLE and RUN/STOP button is hidden in center of the control panel... Why??
Aha, so, because it might be better to "hide it in the center of the scope" than inside the housing - really, never read such a nonsense.
I need an oscilloscope that is in the the 2000 GBP range, will span my range of interests and be versatile enough for many different applications. I can not seem to choose between the two mentioned systems. I would be most grateful for some reasoned opinions from the experts on this forum.

I've got the HMO2524 with 250MHz and all bus decoding options released (Parallel, UART, SPI, I2C, CAN and LIN). Most of the time I'm using SPI and I2C for embedded implementations. From my point of view the bus analysis are one of the best you can get for this budget. Parallel, UART, SPI and I2C offer plenty of configurations, rich of trigger event definitions, search functionality, event table. Compared it to my RIGOL when trial was enabled, not at all so good as the HAMEG bus decoding. When comparing the price, Hameg is unbeatable.
Especially because of the bus analysis functionality I won't miss the HMO for embedded systems anymore.
