Mechatrommer:
saw this among feeltech/elec/kkmoon while aliexpressing for budget FG/AWG... $130, ie 40% discount from original price of $217 go figure :-//
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000373256414.html (old link dead)

googling shows the web is up on 15th Nov (UTG962E)
https://www.uni-trend.com/html/product/NewProducts/UTG900E%20Series/UTG962E.html

i searched for UTG962, none, but it turned out in chinese website..
https://www.uni-trend.com.cn/index.php?m=content&c=index&a=show&catid=416&id=741

i thought UTG962 is reject version, because i cant find english page for it but the seller (uni-t official store) said its chinese version, english version is UTG962E, but its not for sale yet. but the chinese version we can set to english (according to him)... no link/doc available yet in english web, but in chinese web, there are SW and pdf, but all in chinese...

in short, its 200MSa/s, 66MSa/s slower than feelelec, but it has 4.3" LCD with more proper front panel buttons etc, quite compact 172mm x 90mm face and only 68mm depth, so it will still fit nicely under my dso rack. 5V input, connections and BNC outputs all are on the side, so better candidate to mod to portable unit. no clear indication memory depth for arbitrary function, but there's hint 4kpts in the chinese pdf, correct me if i'm wrong i cant read chinese. for more details, you can follow the links.

There is no a single review in the net nor hinted even a single word here, even in official website it looks still "under construction".. but its 40% discount and $100+ range tag made me wait for the Black Friday to get even more discount 44% ie $121, and it is now so i ordered one 60MHz version, i'm number 2, so there is still 98 pcs for UTG962, UTG932 (30MHz $105) still no purchasers hence 100 stocks. i wish to make a thread plus short review when it arrived and tested, but Black Friday discount is only until 3 Dec, so if someone interested, they may missed the 44% discount, so here it is. but since this is unknown, this maybe turned out to be apple or orange i dont know, this is just a bet when its on bullish price (or maybe peak? depending on how it will perform later). so if you want to risk $120 or yourself as a victim of circumtances, then you may click that order button now. Cheers.

Thanks! Ordered one as well.  I was just looking for a small footprint signal generator. It would be interesting to see if this can be hacked to be battery operated.

This is the site of the brand new UNI-T UTG900E Function Generators: 
https://www.uni-trend.com/html/product/NewProducts/UTG900E%20Series/

Here is the English manual:

Although on specs looks little shy, and its GUI kind of ugly,
its features look amazing, especially for this class of device in that price range.
Probably is going to be a hit among hobbyists, even open new market niche.

Mechatrommer:
from my perspective, in term of performance, the feeltech fy6900 is better (250MSa/s vs 200MSa/s uni-t), (8kpts vs 4kpts), and uni-t is more expensive $80 vs $130. but the better thing for me in uni-t is, smaller footprint, numeric pads, ie more buttons, larger screen, colorful/intuitive GUI (if the ads similar to the real thing). btw black friday still 2 hours left, only 9 sold still 191 stocks to go. so maybe we are the first 10 who's going to try it..

ataradov:
Mine has arrived. It had English enabled by default. There is a way to enable Chinese as well in the menu, so the current firmware is universal.

I played with it a bit, and I like it so far. The UI is fine, not the greatest, but very usable. The actual mechanical feel of the buttons and the device in general is excellent for its size.

I'm not even going to bother to check actual performance numbers, I simply don't care in this case. The only complain I have about "visual" quality of the signal is quite soft edges on the square wave (~20 ns rise/fall time 0-100% levels at all frequencies).
