Early days to give a complete appraisal, however did get familiar over these few days, and I would say it's not too bad for a budget Digital Oscilloscope and signal generator. The display is visually good clear and bright, Graticule and signal wave-forms provide the correct readings, also the read-outs are very close to the known input level; calibration also is spot-on. Can't check the maximum band-width frequency, but suspect it might not go to 100Mhz ? The built-in Generator is okay seems to give the right frequency and level output, and is useful if you are lacking this equipment, so a Two-In-One has benefits at a good price. Y Channel rotary controls can be odd on first encounter, they operate from a fast or slow rotation, can be a little irritating, but once you realise that's how they work, you just take it on-board; however you can set them for Slow rotation, but that can be even more frustrating; my thoughts are, best to leave them as you receive the Oscilloscope, in default mode. Deep Memory is enough for this Scope, was not able to see any really bad sample steps on a sine-wave, at 25Mhz; but this may be more noticeable at higher frequencies, again I can't test that high to check. Again once you become familiar with the buttons and how it operates, life working with the Scope becomes second nature, there are some short cuts you start to remember form operating it over time... my recommendation is, you play with it, to get that experience, and in the course of seeing the odd things that bugs you, they resolve into a working relationship. I would also recommend that once you have received it, you power-up the Scope only after it's been in your home for half an hour, just to get to room temperature; then go to the utility button and select Calibrate, and let it do that; if there is any issues it would resolved at that point. So far, I am happy with it... this has been a long journey to wait for Digital Oscilloscope, with good refresh rate.
