A few weeks ago RIGOL presented the DS1202Z-E oscilloscope, the image of the back was initially wrong. In fact it is the image of the oscilloscope presented today by RIGOL, the MSO5152-E model.

That "Decode" button in the middle of the ocean... :palm:
I know the goal is to be cheaper BUT it doesn't need to look cheaper than it is!

MSO5152-E（150 MHz，4 GSa/s，300,000 wfms/s, 50 Mpts，2+16 channels, 9" touchscreen display)
Options:
MSO5000-E-1RL - 100 Mpts - 219€+VAT
MSO5000-E-BND (COMP, EMBD, AUTO, FLEX, AUDIO, AERO, AWG (25MHz), PWR) - 549€+VAT
Can't understand that pricing... :-// Same price as a Rigol MSO5074 with all the options included...
I think the -E means "Expensive" !

So why one not buy Rigol 5074with bundle free ... ?
I think this price will drop severe in near future .

That's not even competitive with their own 'scopes - MSO5072 is the same price.
OK, I guess the bandwidth is higher but everything else is less.

Yep. If you're going to remove half the buttons then at least spread the remaining ones out a bit.
Maybe this is just to save a couple of $$ by re-using the PCB and outer case from another model. I'm betting if you peel off the front panel sticker there's lots of holes underneath it.

It's the MSO5000 mold with the extra holes blocked off during the mold process and shot with white instead of black. They can do it without making a new mold. But it's silly penny pinching at their scale. A new mold in china would only run them $10k at worst.

The fugliness will probably cost them more than that in lost sales.
Then again: The people buying these probably won't be the people who end up using them.

All scopes that have individual channel controls in 2 ch version look weird to me..
Scopes that have common controls for channels look better in 2 ch version....

Batronix list the rigol scope family in a kind of hierarchy, starting with the 1000, ending with the 8000.
The MSO5000-E is listed under the MSO5000 which make sense (Ultravision I vs Ultravision II, 50Mpts vs 100Mpts, 4GSa/s vs 8 GSa/s, and so on).
But I don´t understand the price.... :-//
-
Me neither...
And the promotion on the MSO5000 is still running until end of march 2020.
I wonder who will want to buy a MSO5000E.
It may be a strategy to boost MSO5000 sales ;D

You're paying for the bandwidth, not the features.

Do we know if anybody has done a teardown? I'm curious if the hardware is different at all ...
