And the Siglent has 2GSa, 7 digits frequency counter, faster waveform update rate, better UI... Pretty much every spces just better that Rigol

if this is true, i'll KIV and waiting with eager... at first glance 2GSps is the winning point, but DHO800 has sig gen and LA probe port to tap in so i bet its going to be a harsh competition. i treat this development/news as positive, we are a fan of "bang per buck" not rigol nor siglent... fwiw...

Adding the signal generator and logic probe interface to the DHO800 will be relevant for less than 1% of the customers, I'd say. It's a very physical "hack"...

Make sure to explain that your " but DHO800 has sig gen and LA probe port" statement means disassembling scope, and soldering chips on motherboard and installing DHO900 SW and.... And even then nobody did it yet and not everybody will be willing or able to do it. Just saying. If you can, good for you.

I (and many others) prefer to buy my scope as a finished product with warranty not as a DIY "assemble yourself at your own responsibility" kit.
Please compare like for like...

+ cutout in the housing for the LA thing...

But generally I don't know why there are two groups that throw rocks at each other. Competition is good. Hobbyists probably greatly benefit from Siglent vs Rigol competition. There is, however, a risk that the overall quality and sw readiness will suffer over time in attempt to be the first on the market.
