What is better? M890C vs MY63 vs M830

maybe I missunderstood the question, but I prefer a multimeter with a fast display and a real fast diode-tester for fast finding connections on a pcb.
The M830 is a cheap, well working multimeter for the "quick and dirty" test procedures, and if its broken, just throw it away.
The others are a bit more expensive, but not really better.
The thing is : what do you need, what do you prefer ?
Just quick reading some low voltages and check some resistors and diodes ?

That is not really something I would rate as good or even decent multimeters. They will all be fairly precise and with lousy safety.
Add a few $ more to the pot and look for meters that at least have a fuse.

There is a note the 20 A range is unfused. So I would expect the lower current ranges to have a a cheap 20x5 glass-fuse. At only 200 mA this may not be that bad - bad still not good for a CAT III rating much higher than 12 V.
The more expensive ones have extra feature like capacitance and temperature.

Hi again! Thanx a lot for yours answers!
I NEED in DCV and R tests only ACV in some case
I prefer 830 for its great display and simplisity...
I see what input impedance of dt830 is only 1M and M890 is 10M
And ACV converter in dt830 is only simple diode (no buffers etc)
Is it problem?

nobody cares?
