yet another review. I think you have convinced me that this will be my first scope to purchase for my hobby electronics education. Much love from Canada
Hey John. Go for it! Thank you very much for your kind words 😁 It is a nice oscilloscope, it worth the extra bucks difference from the FNIRSI, same for the OWON SDS1102/1104... I really hope that you enjoy you future oscilloscope and put it to a good use 👍
@@yurkshirelad I will probably purchase from AliExpress. I’m not in a rush to get it and I think it’ll be cheaper then buying local. If you or anyone else finds a Canadian store with a good price, let me know.
@@johncronk1338 I don't think any Canadian stores sell it. The only place I've seen the Hanteks is on Amazon through the VistaTech store, but I've no idea who they are.
I'm so impressed with what I've seen in this and other videos, i've got one coming from Amazon this evening, feel like a kid in the candy shop getting a new toy 🤗
I have the D15 and love it. I hobbie with mine using Arduinos and ESPs, Pis, Ext. Have no regrets so far. Had it for about a month. Came with 2 probes, so I was extra excited, lol.
Adquirí el DS02D15 en Argentina y acá vino con 2 puntas de prueba, más todos los demás cables, como fue comprado en pleno verano enseguida note una preocupante elevación de la temperatura luego de un corto tiempo de funcionamiento, así que rápidamente eche mano a la obra y le coloqué un disipador de computadora sobre los dos integrados internos que calentaban y como extra lo ayude con un pequeño cooler, y eso fue un total acierto.
Hola Marcelo, esta respuesta está traducida por Google ya que puedo leer español, ¡no sé escribir! Entonces, con respecto a su comentario, es bueno saber que su solución funcionó, es un truco simple y económico que Hantek debería haber implementado en primer lugar, pero en general, todavía me gusta el osciloscopio. ¡Gracias por ver!
@@alejo54dev hola!! yo soy de Uruguay, y compre el DSO2D10 pero todavia no me llego. y le pienso poner disipadores a los 2 IC mas un ventilador. ahora me dejaste pensando, porque no sabia que el de 100 (DSO2D10 que compre) los trae. al final, lo compraste? tiene el disipador? como todavia no me llego no se si trae o no
Superb review!! I am sold on this scope. Thank you for the valuable information. I'm going to buy the 150mhz model tomorrow. I think it's the 20D15 model. Need a new scope as my old one crapped out finally. Lol. Keep up the great work sir!
Hi, tend to agree, for the price is a pretty good package. It has some issues with low voltages, but the overall experience is good. Thanks for watching.
Hugo, I just purchased the "HANTEK DSO2D150" on Thursday of this week. It will be delivered this coming Tuesday (8-17-21) and I am VERY excited for it to arrive! I have been looking at the new DSO oscilloscopes for the past year and finally spent the $$$$ for one. I just wanted to let you know, that YOUR video and review of the 2D150 is what helped me make my decision on purchasing this unit. EXCELLENT work Hugo! Love your video reviews......the intros are very good as well! Patrick (From USA) P.S. NEW subscriber too! ;-)
Hello! Thank you so much for your support... I'm really glad I could help! It is a nice unit and some users gave me some indications how to read low voltage values without using the auto, so you'll be ok 😁 I hope that enjoy your new oscilloscope. Hopefully in the end of this month I will have here the Loto USB oscilloscope sent for review... is in customs... with this new custom law of the EU, I have stuff there over a month... 😢 but quite excited to get my hands on it for a new review.. thank you for watching and your comment. Let me go after how it goes with new oscilloscope 👍
Hi "Ugu". Thanks a lot for quite quick & transparent review. The only red light to new users I offer to put on a language setting - with POLISH ...don't ask me for the result. Typical ZH-CN to PL translation. I've got a lot of fun with it. Btw, would be nice to see some practical measurements with this HANTEK on the professional audio board ...take it as a future task if you will not give it back:)
Hi! Regarding the professional audio measurements, can't garantee that, I will do soon enough a bandwith test with the edge fast rising method, I already bought the signal generator for it, so I just working out the time... 😁 thanks for watching and your comment! 👍
Just received my 2D15 and was looking for some detailed video on it. You did the job! Thank you very much. Lots of respects and regards from Pakistan. BTW, I would like to point out that you should take care of the lighting while recording videos. The subject should not have so much extra light that it reflect in the camera.
Hi, yes you're right... my last videos tend to be better, but the lightning is really hard to tune, I don't have the time I wish to learn a bit more about how to tune light and everything. But slowy I think I'm getting there. Thank you for you comment and for watching!
Just making sure you know that i've just made some experiments with heatsinks and the heat is the main problem that make changes in accuracy measurements. I saw that video from that russian guy too and now I am going to buy 2 20x20mmheatsinks for the main ICs.
@@TechCornerTV I hope you give it a try! I have the Hantek DSO2D15 and am too frustrated with the low voltage accuracy. It seems like there is a residual ~90mV that you can't clear out.
thats a widespread problem in electronics nowadays,, gone are the days of well designed heatsinks,, putting a new thermal compound is almost useless without upgrading heatsinks, we used to add heatsinks to tv and amp motherboards back in the days, just scrap aluminum, couple of screws or clips will do the job, it will work even w/out thermal compound/fans
Again a great video review! Made with much effort, professional editing (chapters etc.), I really appreciate your work, thanks a lot! Think its a great device for home/hobby users! In this price range incredible! Clean and slick GUI and manual interface. I think it will find its "lovers" :-)
Hey Markus! Kind words in your comment, thank you so much... it took me a few nights to put all together and I still have a lot for the follow-up video... thanks for watching! 👍
I just bought one. Lots of features. But I’m seeing a fair amount of noise from the wave generator. The tops of waves show noise that I can’t get rid of. Probes are calibrated. Mains power is clean. Not sure if the input channel, probe, or wave generator is noisy. I was hoping the unit had a bandwidth limit filter, but it doesn’t seem to have one.
Hi, not sure if it has. If you have the chance to invest in better probes, I recommend it. Not saying that the probes are the problem, but, the probes that came with mine were 100Mhz for a 150Mhz scope... Thanks for watching.
Hi, Professor, what a brilliant and understandable review. I'm a beginner and I don't know which one to choose( this one or fnirsi 1014). What would you do? I want to thank you for your advice. Greetings from Argentina.
Disappointment (very) with this scope I own this unit (new 2021) about 6 months and used for 2 months then it Ch2 became out of calibration - the zero is off by 150mV when use the "zero" button. The reading also lower than Ch#1 by about 46% when I connect the same probe to the square wave test output post of the scope. I used the calibration function(found in Utility bottom) and it came back with error code : 511d6. I also downloaded the latest software from Hantek. It did not improve and same error code. Tried email to Hantek service .
What a great review! Thanks! Your review has helped me to decide on making a purchase. Just one thing. I'm not sure your microphone is working properly. The audio sounds very rough and scratchy?
Hi! Glad I could help! Hope you use it one of our affiliate links, it will help a lot 😁 regarding the mic, in the beggining the sound was a little bumpy, don't know what happened. Thanks for watching and good luck for you new oscilloscope 👍
It would have been nice if you measured the response of the scope with a 100 Mhz signal. If I missed that in the video, how did the scope BW match up with the published specifications for the scope?
I don't know why there is no mention of an output tone from the Signal Generator.... I know that the generator outputs a sine-wave because I can see it on the scale... but is there also a signal tone for a radio speaker that you can physically hear from a speaker ? I'm trying to do a shortwave radio alignment and I need to physically hear the 455Khz signal tone from the generator.
Hi Thomas, never though of that, you can for sure connect the output to a speaker and listen the waveform output, I did the inverse, connecting the output from the line output from the PC and analyed the signal being generated (music). You just need to take care about the voltage. Thanks for watching.
Bought the DSO2D15 model, only months later I discovered it has Trigger Level problems with signals below 300 mVpp. I did all the firmware updates, still the traces run on the display, no way to stop them. Things get worse if you keep the oscilloscope on for more than ten minutes. Then, if you select a 50 mVpp sine wave with the internal signal generator, the image is strongly noisy, distorted. I contacted Hantek several times, they wanted a video of mine showing the issue. Sent the video twice in a month, then Hantek disappeared. I re-sent a final e-mail today, I am waiting for a sign of life from them. At this moment no help at all, their after sale sucks. I did a BIG mistake, I should have bought a Tektronix instead but you only learn these things later...
Hi, for what I heard from hantek, their support is non existant. Hope to be wrong, but too many users complained of the same. I buy a lot of stuff in Aliexpress and you have only 15 days to compain, so my advice from experience is if you haven't already, setup an Paypal account and never buy anything on aliexpress not using that account. They will protect you in situations like this. Whis you the best of luck and thanks for watching! 👍
I am very disappointed about the absence of assistance by Hantek after almost two months. I was surprised that two days ago they sent me a firmware update file, however it didn't help to improve the situation. This doesn't speak well of this company leaving a customer with a faulty instrument...
Tektronix are you serious? It costs ten times more than Hantek, especially if this model can decode CAN/LIN If there was at least a twofold difference, I would also take Tektronix )) These are completely different levels of oscilloscopes) For the functionality that this model has and its cost, you should not expect good quality)
@@TechCornerTV you are absolutely right) I have a RIGOL ds1054z oscilloscope, I'm happy with it, but I mainly need CAN / LIN decoding, and it only has uart, SPI Then I bought a Micsig Smart STO1104C, in principle, I am also satisfied with it, it has CAN / LIN decoding, but there were some problems with screen flickering, even on an external monitor, until the support service helped me. Now I saw Hantek, which, in addition to decoding CAN / LIN signals, also has a signal generator and I'm thinking of buying it as a backup (I don't want to suddenly be left without an oscilloscope) Of course, I would buy the MSO5104 rig, but it is very expensive, and for me this is a hobby and does not bring money ...
Hi Hugo. What's the software you're using on the PC? Is it the Keysight Suite or something else? I tried the Suite and didn't like it - it's a massive installation. Also, the PC/Scope driver had issues - the scope's USB kept connecting/disconnecting every minute or so.
Hi Dennis, I used the software packed with the oscilloscope in this video, it is supplied by hantek. Not perfect, but does the job. Thanks for watching.
Hi, in terms of the guitar, I think so, I've seen viewers using simpler oscilloscopes for that. If it says the limit is 300V, you should not pass that limit. Thanks for watching.
The Acquisition Mode is the crucial parameter of any DSO. Most current DSO (except FINRSI) work only in Real Time. This oscilloscope in Real Time mode has a bandwidth of 25MHz, and a sampling rate of 200MSa/s, and these are parameters which should be taken into account when comparing it to Siglent, Rigol or better brands DSOs. Only in Equivalent Time (ETS) mode it has the declared 100MHz and 1GSa/s. But Equivalent Time mode (or a sampling mode) is a crap, haunted by aliasing, and useful only for repetitive signals/waveforms.
Hi! Yes I know that the oscilloscopes have a much lower ratio of sampling rate than the advertised, even so, 200MSa/s is what you get on a DSO138, a Owon 1104 tested seems to have more than that. But I trust in your words. Thanks for watching! 👍
I've seen comparisons in accuracy between this and an equivalent owon unit. The owon unit appears to be significantly more accurate in many situations but does lack some of the features that the hantek offers. Is this the correct or have you noticed this ?
Hi, I think you're totally correct. This one even with the last update of november (video released today with final tests), it still seems to have there some issues. But I still love this, not everybody needs to have lab accuracy in they usage of the oscilloscope, and sometimes you just need to analyze a waveform or something like that. Protocol decoder and function generator are huge plus on this unit. Thanks for watching!
A brilliant review of this product - thank you! Good value for money as a entry level Oscilloscope. Especially as an amater like me. It is known, however, that these range of scopes "lock up" at various times which is very annoying? The only option is to power down the scope and restart it. I cannot find any software updates which may resolve this. I am hoping in time that the manufacturer will resolve this. Keith
Hey Keyth, thanks so much for your kind comment. This channel has some content for pros but was created for amateurs and hobbyists, people like me that needs to take a informed decision before spending a few hundred bucks in very expensive test equipment. That's my goal and that why I try to do my reviews as detailed as I can. Hope it helped and thanks for watching and your support. 👍
Great and very informative video. I’m planning to getting a scope for audio work. Mostly for troubleshooting/calibrate cassette deck. How should one to connect scope input to cassette deck output? BNC scope input to RCA deck output? Or using probe clip? Thanks in advance
Hi, the probe is always better in my humble opinion, since is compensated. Personally, I use also the RCA to BNC cables, or even, the Jack 3.5mm to BNC when needed. They're cheap, you can get all and see what works better for you. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the reply. I’m a bit confused and can’t really figure out how to connect/use the probe. Let’s say I want to measure voltage of cassette deck output. I can measure left and right output with ch1 and ch2 probe, correct? The probes clip on the positive terminal of the output? Do you have any tutorials video showing these steps?
What coax cable can i use for function generator .... 75 ohm? 50 ohm? or either 300 ohm? is it important how much is my coax cable impedance in this case??
In short, yes, that is my opinion. I little bit more expensive but worth the diference. The way I see it is, FNIRSI 1014D is by far the most easy to work, but lack some important features. OWON SDS1102/SDS1104 is very stable but is missing the function generator, yet very good device. Hantek 2Dxx seems to have the best set of features in the bunch... again, in my opinion. In the next week I will join the 3 in the workbench and do a comparation video. Stay tunned 😁 Thank you for watching and commenting! 👍
PS - If you decide to buy one, please consider use the affiliate links in the descriptio, it will not cost you more and give a bit help to continue with this. Thank you in advance! Cheers
Thank u for demonstration, it was very usefully. I ordered, and now I had got my brand new DSO 2D15. I m an amateur, so I must study lot of to use it. How do u connect the oscilloscope to PC? Which program do I need? ( my box does not contain CD for downloading)
You DID NOT comment at all about where you got the SW or how to install SW on PC. All you did was talk about the stupid functions of the PC display software. That aspect is very easy shit. Was this SW generated by Hantek or someone else ? Why did you evade the question above ? Please STOP your bull-shit attitude and get serious about delivering good, wholesome, technical information. @@TechCornerTV
Hi, what do you mean? I downloaded the software from the Hantek website also and I'm using Windows 10... can you be explain better the issue? See the part in the video where I show how to download and install the software. Thanks for watching!
Olá! Não estou conseguindo conectar o meu osciloscópio no computador para uso com o Software. Será problema com Windows 11? Poderia mostrar como fazer o passo a passo de instalação ( Driver, Softwares, etc..). Obrigado!
Olá, olha existe um driver universal que dá para quase todos os aparelhos de eletrónica que está normalmente nos ficheiros de instalação do software. Tens de instalar esse primeiro, se não estou enganado é para suportar o chip CH340. Eu mesmo que quisesse, já tenho tanta coisa instalada no PC (drivers e outros) que neste momento já não consigo fazer um video de passo por passo. Obrigado por assistires!
@@TechCornerTV Apenas para te passar um feedback, eu acabei devolvendo o DSO2C15 e comprei um Siglent SDS 1202X-E. Achei bem superior e o software funcionou certinho. Obrigado pela atenção!
Hello! Hard choice there or not, the Hantek is a very complete oscilloscope, but I always belive more in the Rigol quality. If you are beggining and want the complete package, go with hantek but beware that the bandwidth is not the 100/150Mhz they say and on Rigol you get exactly what they announce. So Rigol more accurate readings and overall quality, Hantek you have almost the complete package with some quality (only missing the logical analyser) but you have to compromise with some bugs and the bandwidth not being exactly what they announce. I will do a video testing the real bandwidth of the oscilloscopes I have really soon using the rise time method. But rest, you'll be ok with any of the products. Kudos to Belarus and thanks for watching!
hello every body, few days ago the Hanteck dso2D10 arrives in my house. I tried the SINGLE mode. Everything works with Edge RISING, but nothing work with Edge FALLING (or Either). someone have found the same as me ??
Hello Werner! Thank you so much for your support. Episode 2 - The Sequel (follow-up) is on the forge with some topics not included in this one, it was already really long... hope to see you in that one also 😁 Kudos!
Sometimes I will need to use it for mixed signal 2Hz and 500Khz. How does it behave on a low frequency? I heart some oscilloscopes have a problem. Mariusz.
Hey James, for what I read from other user comments, it handles low frequencies IF you don't use the AUTO function, you have to manually adjust. I didn't do the firmware upgrade yet to see if it solves some of those issues with the auto function. The experience I had with this oscilloscope is what you see in the video, I will do soon two videos, one with upgrade process and the seconde is the max/advertised bandwitdth testing using the rising edge method. Thanks for watching 👍
Hi, can't recall exactly, but I don't think so. That function is normally found on a dedicated function generator or more high end oscilloscopes. Thanks for watching.
I saw in a teardown video that the scope does not have a internal cooling fan.. Does it get hot after sometime? Did you notice any performance related issues after long times of usage? Great video btw!
Hi! I saw that video also, I can't confirm that it will crash after a long time usage, even if I got to crash it a couple of times during recording that took like 4 hours continuous operation. To be honest, I can't remember if Owon SDS1104 has fan, but that one never crashed even if doesn't have one. Thanks for watching, I'll have soon another one with real bandwidth measure using the fast rise edge signal analisys method. So keet tunned 😁
@@TechCornerTV thanks a lot for the reply! For some reason I did NOT get a notification from youtube (it does weird things) That aside, What do you think about the siglent SDS1102CML+ oscilloscope? It is a 100MHz rather than a 150MHz... It has some REALLY good reviews.. The only things stopping me from buying it would be the lower bandwidth :( It would be REALLY great if you could do a review on that scope in the following month :-)
Hello, great video. I had this oscilloscope for a year now, and I need a better one with more channels. Which one do you recommend for a budget up to 2k?
Hi Carlos, for that price range you have a few option, me personally I would try the Owon XDS4000 line 350/500mhz oscilloscope or you have a great promotion on Rigol going on right now that you can buy the Rigol MSO5000 100Mhz 4Channels for about 900€ and then you can "upgrade" it to 500Mhz.... or buy already with full speed for something like 2K. You probably have other option in R&S or Siglent,, Keysight, but I'm not familiar with the models.... hope it helped! If you buy on Aliexpress or Amazon, please don't forget our affilaite links to access, helps a lot www.techcorner.tv/aliexpress or www.techcorner.tv/amazon. Thanks for watching! 👍
At time 19 minutes, in measure mode, I see that you can display 4 of the most favourite parameters, but I could only save a max of 4 over the 2 channels. Can you save 4 or more parameters per channel? I have had my DSO2D15 1 week, your description far better than the digital manual, thanks:-)
Hi Barry, that is a pitty only showing 4 values, but if you take a notice on minute 18:45, you have all the possibly values for one channel at once in the screen. The thing is it has to be by channel, not both. Yeah, it could be improved a lot this system. Thanks for watching.
Hi, can you do a video that shows Video Triggering of an NTSC signal... CVSB.. and this unit's capabilities of displaying the signal. Thanks. I would greatly appreciate it.
Hello! Well at this moment I am swamped with work, currently working on the Loto Instruments USB Oscilloscope, but it is noted and I'll try in a near future to a video with that, I can't promise, but I took note and it is an idea for a future video! Thanks for watching and your comment! 👍
Great video, I bought a DSo404b, and your deep detail review will help me a lot with my first digital scope. I am curious do you speak portuguese you said inclusive as native speaker.
Hi, this is a great oscilloscope, very complete. It was some issues, but nothing special for the price range it is. Yes, portuguese is my natural language and I have a twin channel with these same videos but in portuguese (in case it interests you), the link for this video in portuguese is this th-cam.com/video/7hHm2AkLkJc/w-d-xo.html . Thank you for watching and your comment! I so glad it helped you. Cheers!
Your review prompted me to purchase a DsO2000 series 150Mhz oscilloscope however during testing I noticed that be it slne or square wave at low input levels such as 800mv the screen becomes very jittery, have you noticed such behavior please help me as Im new to digital storage oscilloscopes any advice will be greatly appreciated Thanks
Hey Navin! No sweat, there is an issue with triggering at low voltages, I noticed that a very low voltages, bellow 100mV, but some users here mentioned that it is a problem when you use the AUTO fuction, if you tune it manually it will be ok and I can confirm, that I had similiar experience. I preparing a video for the upgrade of firmware and I am expecting that this upgrade can solve some of this issues. Thanks for watching and your comment. 👍
@@TechCornerTV Hi thanks for your quick response I new there had to be some problem anyway other than that it really is a versatile instrument thanks again and look forward to the upgrade.
@@333cgs333 Are you talking about FNIRSI or Hantek? FNIRSI, it might... there some users that report not having the same problems I had. In the Hantek I will record a video soon showing how to upgrade and if the problems mantain or not...
@@TechCornerTV Fantastic, already looking forward the video. Got the Hantek for over a year now. quite happy with it. but thinking about stepping up. what would you recommend in the USD1-2k bracket, what about the USD 2-3k bracket?
I have choice from this hantek and rigol 1054z . I choose my first oscilloscope home for my hobbies. But I also study at the university in radio engineering and in the future I may need an oscilloscope for more complex tasks. The price difference between these models is almost twofold, it's a pity for the money. But many people write that the quality of Rigol is very different from Hantek and it is worth overpaying. I would not want to spend money on hantek and buy something in the future. The question for you is: how to be in this situation?
How'you doing! Look, the Rigol oscilloscopes are normally "upgradable", so even the 50Mhz model you should be able to upgrade to 100Mhz. If it was me, I would save 60 more euros and buy the DS1074Z Plus that already has 16 digital channels. But if you don't need them, you may go with the 1054Z, is always a good option. The diference for the Hantek 2D1* models is the function generator, but in terms of product I believe you'll be better served with the Rigol, thats my opinion. Also a nice choice will be the Owon XDS2102A 8" touch screen 12bits vertical resolution. But between the two you mentioned, I'd choose Rigol. But look, nothing is static, Hantek right now will be a better choice because is cheaper and has everything you might need for hobby/university and in the future if you consider that is limiting your work, sell that one on OLX, eBay, whatever and buy a new one that better fit your needs. Hope it helped and thanks for watching 😁
Hi Hugo, is that DMM accuracy issue solved? I have to share some experience. The scope is actually very accurate in measuring dc rms. But u have to follow these procedures. 1. Connect the voltage needed to be measured. 2. Then press autoset. 3. Then the dmm will show a somewhat accurate value. 4. Now u have to decrease the offset by turning the offset pot. So the voltage will come down, and now you have to increase the volts per devision, in such a way that the trace can be seen on the scope. 5. Now the voltage shown by dmm will be very accurate. Plz try this Hugo.
Hi! I will follow your procedures on my final test. I made a mV Rederence Board that is already on the way from PCBWay and I will test the oscilloscope one last time with this device. I will try your indication! Thanks for watching! 👍
Hello Joop! You're right, that is missing, but it was already defined that I need a second follow-up video, this one is really big and I still have several things to cover, I'll include that in the follow-up video with also a teardown'ish of the oscilloscope, how to "upgrade" to 150Mhz (maybe) and a few other things. Thank you for watching and your comment! 👍
HANTEK DSO2C10 measures 12v battery voltage. Why does channel 1 measure more than channel 2? Channel 1 measured MAX 12.8V, but channel 2 measured 12.2v. The difference is approximately 0.6v. This clip th-cam.com/video/nuY9gXZR0zo/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the video. I'm trying to decide between Hantek 2D15 w/ waveform generator 150Mhz ($259.99) versus Rigol 1202Z-E 200Mhz ($299 ). I'm a hobbiest, any advice from anyone is helpful on this choice. was even thinking of a $100 one but people steered me away. I like that the Hantek can connect to a PC. is the Rigol pretty good on PC also versus hantek? thanks
Hi, personally, I would go with the Rigol. You'll lose the function generator, but the rigol also has protocol decoding. In terms of accuracy (and even if I didn't tested this model) usually Rigol as supperior results than the Hantek. With Rigol you'll have 200Mhz instead of 150Mhz, 24Mbps instead of 8Mbps memory depth, well among other things. I'm not Rigol sponsored, just my 5 cents on the topic. Hantek gives you more features and it tends to be easier to work, the FFT works pretty well and overall has a lot of functions, is a very complete unit. Rigol is more established, more accurate and a little bit harder to work with, the UI is not so user friendly, but that doesn't mean you can't get things done, quite the oposite, you can do everything and is a very powerful tool. For a hobbyst you'll be tottaly fine with the hantek if you don't want to spend more money. Thanks for watching 👍
@@TechCornerTV I just slung my new faulty HNATEK 150 back in the back along with its "free gifts" and I am now exploring RIGOl thanks for the heads up, the HANTEKCRAPTEK is on my yout chan recent clips
HANTEK DSO2C10 measures 12v battery voltage. Why does channel 1 measure more than channel 2? Channel 1 measured MAX 12.8V, but channel 2 measured 12.2v. The difference is approximately 0.6v.
Hi, that might be probe related or just callibration on the oscilloscope or even just some problem with one of the channels. What is the voltage a thrustable multimeter reads? Start there and you'll know wich channel as the problem, then exchange the probes and so on. Thanks for watching.
Do you still keep the title "Awessome Oscilloscope" after all the problems over the year with the Hantek and the problem taking low measurements or accuracy?
Hi! Ahahaaha that was a nice catch! Well done 😁 here's the thing, I try not to mess with my old videos, so you can have an history, when this device was released and my first analysis I did get a good impression on it, I still do. It has problems, for sure, but will give a lot for a reasonable price. I do reviews of other devices in the same range and for that range, let's not compare with rigol or siglent that are much more expensive, and considering everything, it's not that bad. Again for the same price range and for accuracy, I will go with Owon, but than you don't have the protocol decoder, function generator and some other perks. Thanks for watching! 👍

HI, well this video I think it has over an year, but I agree with you. Owon also released recently some 14-bit oscilloscopes at a very good price. The market will adapt and ajust to this new reallity. Thanks for sharing and for watching.
As far as price, look its this simple if it advertises it suppose to do something then it should , just because its low cost should have to bearing on what it claims it does.
Hi Budha, you're right! But if the world was perfect we wouldn't have a huge war right now going on. We are not in perfect world and sometimes (many) the manufacturers won't tell you the specs as they should. They claim the speed on a techincal details of the components the oscilloscope, but most of the times those components are unable to achieve the specs they mention. One fun example is the laser engravers, where they announce something 40W laser, but that is the consumed energy, not the optical power, that most of the times is 5W.... but thanks for you comment and for watching! 👍
Hi! Sorry about that, the most incredible part is that it is really my voice that when I'm starting to get tired, make same weird vibration... I always record after midnight up to 3am... 4am... is when I already spare some time with the family and are all alone to record. So, again, sorry about that, maybe might be the mic, but normally is my voice with up's and down's. Anyway, thanks for watching and for your input! 👍
Hello, to anwser your question, it was some small issues but overall it's good, for its price range is a good option with a lot of features for the price you pay. Thanks for watching and if you decide to buy one and want to help to channel, you can use the affiliate links in the description. Thank you. 👍
Hey Guy! Fear not 😁 I stoped the edition of the video I recorded last couple days just to tell you that this video on the forge is showdown between the FNIRSI 1014D, OWON SDS1104 and Hantek 2D10 and in the video you have 10 different "parameters" to compare and one of them is taking the oscilloscopes to 60Mhz (my function generato maximum) and to see how they handle the bandwidth. One of the other test is voltage measurement accuracy... I hope that I will be able to finish it today, but surelly tomorow will be online. Stay tunned. Thank you for watching and your comment! Cheers 👍
@@TechCornerTV very nice project. but one more thing to tell you : a guy discover that to remove the non stable wave, he select average 16, and the waves has been stabilised. i dont know how we could name this trick : cheat (from hantek) ?? di you try, what do you thing of this ?
@@guyfradasyl88650 Didn't try... can you pass me the link to check that out? If the comment with URL gets deleted, please send me directly by e-mail, is on the about tab. Thanks! PS-The portuguese version of the video is encoding, tomorow I hope to finish the english version... 🤞 working on this for a week now!
Hi Steven, I do think so. It was not possible to release it this friday, but will be online next thursday the new video on "How to low level update & recovery" that with a new update, I got some news to show. Thanks for watching! 👍
eevblog have a massive thread detailing just how many many many problems and bugs and issues there are with this 'scope. check it out before even thinking of buying.
I saw the thread on the e-mail and unfortunetelly it seems a pattern in this entry level oscilloscopes, after some time of usage I detected also a few issues with FNIRSI 1014D... the OWON SDS1104 that I tested, until now seems to be more stable. Anyway, I'm gonna take a look in that thread... I will do a follow-up video on this oscilloscope, maybe I cover some of that issues... Thanks for your comment.
Hi, Thanks for this amazing review! Your video convinced me to buy this oscilloscope :) The only issue which I have (or don't understand) is how to change amplitude for DC signal generated by wave gen. I will be grateful if someone can explain that to me :)
Hello Rafal, on minute 37:43 I show how you can change the amplitude, you have the coarse ajustment and fine ajustmen.... kind of dump but will allow you to have a greater control over the value. Thanks for watching! 👍
@@TechCornerTV thanks for your answer :) my problem is related only to DC wave form. When I change wave form to DC the amplitude parameter is grey out :/
Hey Frank! It wasn't me, but I think is related to the fact that you left there a link to the EEVBlog. I saw your comment because I receive a copy of every comment on the e-mail. I thought that your comment was very informative and if you don't mind please leave it here without the link. I had problems before with links, but seems that youtube doesn't mind if we use geniuslink, so bit.ly might work as well, but leave the link on a different message, just in case. I really sorry for that, but it wasn't me, seriously. I answer all comments, even from trolls and that wasn't your case. Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment. 👍
Soon as I saw it froze on you, I immediately knew this was not the Oscilloscope for me even though it's a cheap one! I need a reliable one without having to take out a second mortgage! :/
Hello Steve, yeah I got what you saying. Look, as I mencioned before, my first oscilloscope was a Rigol MSO2101A it cost me near 1000€, and I decided to spend that because I wanted a very stable device that if something goes wrong with the readings, I can be sure that was because of me and not the equipment. To be honest, today I probably will go to the Owon 3000 series, it is a bit cheaper and have 14bits resolution, anyway I totally understand what you're saying. Take a look in a midle range Owon 3000 series or a Rigol 1054Z is at good price right now and siglent also has good products. Season greatings and thanks for watching! 👍
Disappointment (very) with Hantek DSO2D10 scope . Hantek in China finally responded with instruction to re-flash firmware.Followed instruction exactly and the results were WORST > now CH1 zero is off by 800mV and reading 4V on 5V. CH2 was as bad as before. Contacted Hantek again and cannot help and was asked to contact seller! ( the seller was Hantek Official Store) If you are thinking of buying this beware you are on your own for service and repair. It would be questionable on the logistic , honour and followup repair all the way from China
So I just bought the Hantek DSO2D15 with the sole intention of returning it by the end of month next month since Amazon has returned policy until Jan 31st. I plan on getting the RIGOL MSO5074 70Mhz beast with the full intention of hacking it into a full-fledged 350Mhz scope! It's quite abit more money but after the hack, I think it will be well worth it! I love the fact it has a big touch screen!
Hello Steve, I was this close to buy one MSO5074 myself.... with Rigol promotions is at 800 and something euros, cheaper than mine... and yes, with upgrades we can take it too 350Mhz.... but I already spent so much money in equipment... I REALLY had to control myself 😁 it is a very nice device, kudos! Keep me posted about the usage of that unit. PS - A note that will help you if you haven't bought already and I don't have anything with them, but batterfly.com has every 10% discount in the end of the year, with the Rigol promotion you can even get a better price, free shipping. 👍
@@TechCornerTV I'm in the USA and Butterfly doesn't look like they ship to the US. :/ The way I look at it is that I'll probably have this $1,000 oscilloscope for the rest of my life and it will serve me better than the other oscilloscopes I've been looking at. I don't need to add more troubleshooting issues in my already complex projects I have by having to worry if my scope is working properly or even worse, freezing up on me. I don't have a complete lab setup like you have but I do have the essentials minus a scope with a function generator at the moment. I do plan on selling some of my projects as hobbyists kits and even consumer electronic products such as a "smart" heater with a constant heat setting that allows you to set an exact temperature you and blowing out the exact temp you had requested.
Hi! Brazil, wonderful land, I've been there several times. I apprecciate your comment and suggestion, I will add it to my todo list to create a newbie video explaining the oscilloscope and how to use it. Thanks for watching! 👍
The Red ring is swappable with your desired color from the same probe package which you have already seen; One probe is not stupid, a machine with functions that is not supposed to be there for a price that is maybe 50 times cheaper than ones from K-brand while comes with everything in the package is stupid. You don't complain about the silverware not real silver when you are dining at a Michelin 3 star for McDonald's price, right?
Hello Simeng, well in general I say this is a nice unit for the price, you can have one or other detail that isn't "perfect", but is totally acceptable considering what is delivered and the cost vs benefict ratio. On test made later, it is notorious the lack of precision with auto and low voltages. But again, in general, this is a good package of features. Thanks for watching and for your input! 👍
@@TechCornerTV I think this is where you hit the spot. A cheap scope has the reason to be cheap, cheap on the material, the peripherals, the build quality or the functionality, etc. That probe is €2 if you buy it separately and it comes with a pack of colored rings. If I can get a key sight this cheap, I don’t care if there is no probe at all. But coming with fancy functions that doesn’t work or lack of accuracy even for the same level products that should have had that’s stupid. All in all, I should have said that your video is packed with information and details and that is valuable to people who is just looking for something like this but have no idea what they are getting for the money. Your video give people nearly hands-on experience and that is really important for decision making. Thanks!
Hey John, after long hours of usage of my Rigol I already managed to freeze it, but I think is my fault, the place where my is, isn't the most appropriate, I have to get a better shelf solution for my workbench. But yeah, its a total diferent story in quality, but let's be honest, there is a huge difference in price. I think this entry level oscilloscopes are needed, I've seen here in the channel viewers that have to save money a lot of time to spend some in a oscilloscope and if they have to buy one with the double the price, they can't afford it, so isn't perfect, but solves some problems, there is a market for all. Thanks for watching and sharing! 👍
Awesome! But that heatsink costs cents, it should be already installed... and also, I can see in the video that it was place for a fan but none is installed. Even so, its a very nice oscilloscope for the price. I like it. Thank you for watching and for your tip, very nice. Thank you! 👍
@@TechCornerTV Thank you for the detailed, honest reviews. I bought myself a 2B15 on Aliexpress and only today I received it in the mail. The first impressions of him are positive. Didn't hang up yet. But I have already prepared hot melt glue and radiators 8)
Thank you so much for your nice comment buddy! I hope to keep up the doing videos that meet the expectations!😁I hope you enjoy your new oscilloscope! Chees. 👍
it should have 2 probes for oscilloscope but you know its Chinese made so Chinese thinking you have buy another probe for the 2nd channel you know its Chinese way of business
Hi Jose, don't get me wrong, but the probe that they deliver costs $5/5€ on aliexpress. The handheld 2 channels oscilloscope that I recently tested (SigPeak DSO2512) was delivered with 2 of them. It's not from being chinese, today everything comes from china. Hantek was simply cheapskate with this DSO2000 series. 🤦♀️ Thanks for watching 👍
Bought a Hantek occiloscope a couple of years ago, it failed after just over a year and the tech who looked at it said the soldering in it was so bad. Multiple bad joints all over the board. Not worth repairing. Would never buy another Hantek device.
Hey Ken, in that department, I trust much more in Owon, it belongs to Lillyput a huge company that produces hi end tech for television channels and professional stuff, Owon is just a part of their business, they are used to supply equipment that can't fail. Hankek is big, but sometimes I think they're a bit messy in their work. The DSO2000 firmware is kind of proof of that. Thanks for sharing and watching! 👍
Hi, I've been told... this is a very old video, in the latest ones I tried to correct that. I think that it is better, but, I'm trying to improve. Thanks for watching and you comment.
Hey Pat, no problem! My first oscilloscope was (is) a Rigol MSO2102, but not everyone has the money for that. This is a nice option for someone that can't afford more. Anyway, thanks for watching and your comment! 👍
yet another review. I think you have convinced me that this will be my first scope to purchase for my hobby electronics education. Much love from Canada
Hey John. Go for it! Thank you very much for your kind words 😁 It is a nice oscilloscope, it worth the extra bucks difference from the FNIRSI, same for the OWON SDS1102/1104... I really hope that you enjoy you future oscilloscope and put it to a good use 👍
Where are you going to buy it from? A Canadian distributor or from China? Just curious in case you purchase from a Canadian distributor.
@@yurkshirelad I will probably purchase from AliExpress. I’m not in a rush to get it and I think it’ll be cheaper then buying local. If you or anyone else finds a Canadian store with a good price, let me know.
@@johncronk1338 I don't think any Canadian stores sell it. The only place I've seen the Hanteks is on Amazon through the VistaTech store, but I've no idea who they are.
@@johncronk1338 So any update on the oscilloscope?
I'm so impressed with what I've seen in this and other videos, i've got one coming from Amazon this evening, feel like a kid in the candy shop getting a new toy 🤗

I have the D15 and love it. I hobbie with mine using Arduinos and ESPs, Pis, Ext. Have no regrets so far. Had it for about a month. Came with 2 probes, so I was extra excited, lol.
Adquirí el DS02D15 en Argentina y acá vino con 2 puntas de prueba, más todos los demás cables, como fue comprado en pleno verano enseguida note una preocupante elevación de la temperatura luego de un corto tiempo de funcionamiento, así que rápidamente eche mano a la obra y le coloqué un disipador de computadora sobre los dos integrados internos que calentaban y como extra lo ayude con un pequeño cooler, y eso fue un total acierto.
Hola Marcelo, esta respuesta está traducida por Google ya que puedo leer español, ¡no sé escribir! Entonces, con respecto a su comentario, es bueno saber que su solución funcionó, es un truco simple y económico que Hantek debería haber implementado en primer lugar, pero en general, todavía me gusta el osciloscopio. ¡Gracias por ver!
@@alejo54dev hola!! yo soy de Uruguay, y compre el DSO2D10 pero todavia no me llego. y le pienso poner disipadores a los 2 IC mas un ventilador. ahora me dejaste pensando, porque no sabia que el de 100 (DSO2D10 que compre) los trae. al final, lo compraste? tiene el disipador?

Superb review!! I am sold on this scope. Thank you for the valuable information. I'm going to buy the 150mhz model tomorrow. I think it's the 20D15 model. Need a new scope as my old one crapped out finally. Lol. Keep up the great work sir!
Hi, thank you so much for watching an your nice comment. Wish the best to your future oscilloscope. Take care.
Oscilloscopio molto rumoroso,un giocattolo,non comperare
I've had this scope about a year, and I think it's pretty great.
Hi, tend to agree, for the price is a pretty good package. It has some issues with low voltages, but the overall experience is good. Thanks for watching.
Hugo,
I just purchased the "HANTEK DSO2D150" on Thursday of this week. It will be delivered this coming Tuesday (8-17-21) and I am VERY excited for it to arrive! I have been looking at the new DSO oscilloscopes for the past year and finally spent the $$$$ for one.
I just wanted to let you know, that YOUR video and review of the 2D150 is what helped me make my decision on purchasing this unit. EXCELLENT work Hugo!
Love your video reviews......the intros are very good as well!

P.S. NEW subscriber too! ;-)
Hello! Thank you so much for your support... I'm really glad I could help! It is a nice unit and some users gave me some indications how to read low voltage values without using the auto, so you'll be ok 😁 I hope that enjoy your new oscilloscope. Hopefully in the end of this month I will have here the Loto USB oscilloscope sent for review... is in customs... with this new custom law of the EU, I have stuff there over a month... 😢 but quite excited to get my hands on it for a new review.. thank you for watching and your comment. Let me go after how it goes with new oscilloscope 👍
@@TechCornerTV I sure will Hugo! :-)
Hi "Ugu". Thanks a lot for quite quick & transparent review. The only red light to new users I offer to put on a language setting - with POLISH ...don't ask me for the result. Typical ZH-CN to PL translation. I've got a lot of fun with it. Btw, would be nice to see some practical measurements with this HANTEK on the professional audio board ...take it as a future task if you will not give it back:)
Hi! Regarding the professional audio measurements, can't garantee that, I will do soon enough a bandwith test with the edge fast rising method, I already bought the signal generator for it, so I just working out the time... 😁 thanks for watching and your comment! 👍
Just received my 2D15 and was looking for some detailed video on it. You did the job! Thank you very much. Lots of respects and regards from Pakistan.
BTW, I would like to point out that you should take care of the lighting while recording videos. The subject should not have so much extra light that it reflect in the camera.
Hi, yes you're right... my last videos tend to be better, but the lightning is really hard to tune, I don't have the time I wish to learn a bit more about how to tune light and everything. But slowy I think I'm getting there. Thank you for you comment and for watching!
Just making sure you know that i've just made some experiments with heatsinks and the heat is the main problem that make changes in accuracy measurements. I saw that video from that russian guy too and now I am going to buy 2 20x20mmheatsinks for the main ICs.
Hey João! I'm thinking of buying some for my oscilloscope too and redoo the tests in a video to see if it helps. Thank you for sharing! 😁👍
@@TechCornerTV I hope you give it a try! I have the Hantek DSO2D15 and am too frustrated with the low voltage accuracy. It seems like there is a residual ~90mV that you can't clear out.
@@jaymclemore9497 hello Jay, how would u instal the heat sinks?
thats a widespread problem in electronics nowadays,, gone are the days of well designed heatsinks,, putting a new thermal compound is almost useless without upgrading heatsinks, we used to add heatsinks to tv and amp motherboards back in the days, just scrap aluminum, couple of screws or clips will do the job, it will work even w/out thermal compound/fans
Again a great video review! Made with much effort, professional editing (chapters etc.), I really appreciate your work, thanks a lot!
Think its a great device for home/hobby users! In this price range incredible! Clean and slick GUI and manual interface. I think it will find its "lovers" :-)
Hey Markus! Kind words in your comment, thank you so much... it took me a few nights to put all together and I still have a lot for the follow-up video... thanks for watching! 👍
This might be the one for me. Never had one. Learning.
Hi, you got a lot of stuff for the price, oscilloscope, function generator, protocol decoder, etc. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for you're in-depth review. I just purchase this one based on your efforts!
Hey Craig, thank you for letting me know, really happy that the video helped you! Thanks for watching and enjoy your new oscilloscope! 😁👍
I just bought one. Lots of features. But I’m seeing a fair amount of noise from the wave generator. The tops of waves show noise that I can’t get rid of. Probes are calibrated. Mains power is clean. Not sure if the input channel, probe, or wave generator is noisy. I was hoping the unit had a bandwidth limit filter, but it doesn’t seem to have one.
Hi, not sure if it has. If you have the chance to invest in better probes, I recommend it. Not saying that the probes are the problem, but, the probes that came with mine were 100Mhz for a 150Mhz scope... Thanks for watching.
It has, check the BW 20 in channel settings. Make sure that ground from generator is connected to probe ground.
Hi, Professor, what a brilliant and understandable review. I'm a beginner and I don't know which one to choose( this one or fnirsi 1014). What would you do? I want to thank you for your advice. Greetings from Argentina.
Disappointment (very) with this scope I own this unit (new 2021) about 6 months and used for 2 months then it Ch2 became out of calibration - the zero is off by 150mV when use the "zero" button. The reading also lower than Ch#1 by about 46% when I connect the same probe to the square wave test output post of the scope. I used the calibration function(found in Utility bottom) and it came back with error code : 511d6. I also downloaded the latest software from Hantek. It did not improve and same error code. Tried email to Hantek service .
Hi! So sorry to ear that... thanks for watching and sharing. It's always good to know this stories.
What a great review! Thanks!
Your review has helped me to decide on making a purchase.
Just one thing. I'm not sure your microphone is working properly. The audio sounds very rough and scratchy?
Hi! Glad I could help! Hope you use it one of our affiliate links, it will help a lot 😁 regarding the mic, in the beggining the sound was a little bumpy, don't know what happened. Thanks for watching and good luck for you new oscilloscope 👍
It would have been nice if you measured the response of the scope with a 100 Mhz signal. If I missed that in the video, how did the scope BW match up with the published specifications for the scope?
Hi, I'm not sure if at that time I had my 100Mhz signal generator, but I believe that I've done it in later videos. Thanks for watching.
I don't know why there is no mention of an output tone from the Signal Generator.... I know that the generator outputs a sine-wave because I can see it on the scale... but is there also a signal tone for a radio speaker that you can physically hear from a speaker ? I'm trying to do a shortwave radio alignment and I need to physically hear the 455Khz signal tone from the generator.
Hi Thomas, never though of that, you can for sure connect the output to a speaker and listen the waveform output, I did the inverse, connecting the output from the line output from the PC and analyed the signal being generated (music). You just need to take care about the voltage. Thanks for watching.
Bought the DSO2D15 model, only months later I discovered it has Trigger Level problems with signals below 300 mVpp. I did all the firmware updates, still the traces run on the display, no way to stop them. Things get worse if you keep the oscilloscope on for more than ten minutes. Then, if you select a 50 mVpp sine wave with the internal signal generator, the image is strongly noisy, distorted.
I contacted Hantek several times, they wanted a video of mine showing the issue. Sent the video twice in a month, then Hantek disappeared. I re-sent a final e-mail today, I am waiting for a sign of life from them. At this moment no help at all, their after sale sucks.
I did a BIG mistake, I should have bought a Tektronix instead but you only learn these things later...
Hi, for what I heard from hantek, their support is non existant. Hope to be wrong, but too many users complained of the same. I buy a lot of stuff in Aliexpress and you have only 15 days to compain, so my advice from experience is if you haven't already, setup an Paypal account and never buy anything on aliexpress not using that account. They will protect you in situations like this. Whis you the best of luck and thanks for watching! 👍
I am very disappointed about the absence of assistance by Hantek after almost two months. I was surprised that two days ago they sent me a firmware update file, however it didn't help to improve the situation. This doesn't speak well of this company leaving a customer with a faulty instrument...
Tektronix are you serious?
It costs ten times more than Hantek, especially if this model can decode CAN/LIN
If there was at least a twofold difference, I would also take Tektronix ))
These are completely different levels of oscilloscopes)
For the functionality that this model has and its cost, you should not expect good quality)
@@smart_electronics_il The universal rule of the "you get, what you pay"
@@TechCornerTV
you are absolutely right)
I have a RIGOL ds1054z oscilloscope, I'm happy with it, but I mainly need CAN / LIN decoding, and it only has uart, SPI
Then I bought a Micsig Smart STO1104C, in principle, I am also satisfied with it, it has CAN / LIN decoding, but there were some problems with screen flickering, even on an external monitor, until the support service helped me.
Now I saw Hantek, which, in addition to decoding CAN / LIN signals, also has a signal generator and I'm thinking of buying it as a backup (I don't want to suddenly be left without an oscilloscope)
Of course, I would buy the MSO5104 rig, but it is very expensive, and for me this is a hobby and does not bring money ...
Very comprehensive video! Thank you!
Hey Nedko! Glad it was helpful, thanks for watching and your nice comment. 👍
@@TechCornerTV in fact I'm going to rewatch it as I just ordered one such oscilloscope :)
@@nedko I hope you enjoy your new Oscilloscope... I had a blast doing this reviews 😁
Hi Hugo. What's the software you're using on the PC? Is it the Keysight Suite or something else? I tried the Suite and didn't like it - it's a massive installation. Also, the PC/Scope driver had issues - the scope's USB kept connecting/disconnecting every minute or so.
Hi Dennis, I used the software packed with the oscilloscope in this video, it is supplied by hantek. Not perfect, but does the job. Thanks for watching.
I just received this dso how we can measure voltage ripple from it can you please help me?
Is this adequate for a Guitar tube amp? I see 300v cat II written between the probes. Does that mean I can't test above 300 volts?
Hi, in terms of the guitar, I think so, I've seen viewers using simpler oscilloscopes for that. If it says the limit is 300V, you should not pass that limit. Thanks for watching.
The Acquisition Mode is the crucial parameter of any DSO. Most current DSO (except FINRSI) work only in Real Time. This oscilloscope in Real Time mode has a bandwidth of 25MHz, and a sampling rate of 200MSa/s, and these are parameters which should be taken into account when comparing it to Siglent, Rigol or better brands DSOs. Only in Equivalent Time (ETS) mode it has the declared 100MHz and 1GSa/s. But Equivalent Time mode (or a sampling mode) is a crap, haunted by aliasing, and useful only for repetitive signals/waveforms.
Hi! Yes I know that the oscilloscopes have a much lower ratio of sampling rate than the advertised, even so, 200MSa/s is what you get on a DSO138, a Owon 1104 tested seems to have more than that. But I trust in your words. Thanks for watching! 👍
Aren't the 25 MHz and 200 MSa/s specs of the AFG?
@@janpillmann2047 Yes, actually they are, it was my mistake. Yet, some tests show that parameters given for DSO are not real time sampling.
@@TzOk hey, are you still there? I have some questions
@@Sajid-lp9ss Yes, I'm here...
I've seen comparisons in accuracy between this and an equivalent owon unit. The owon unit appears to be significantly more accurate in many situations but does lack some of the features that the hantek offers. Is this the correct or have you noticed this ?
Hi, I think you're totally correct. This one even with the last update of november (video released today with final tests), it still seems to have there some issues. But I still love this, not everybody needs to have lab accuracy in they usage of the oscilloscope, and sometimes you just need to analyze a waveform or something like that. Protocol decoder and function generator are huge plus on this unit. Thanks for watching!
A brilliant review of this product - thank you!
Good value for money as a entry level Oscilloscope.
Especially as an amater like me.
It is known, however, that these range of scopes "lock up" at various times which is very annoying?
The only option is to power down the scope and restart it.
I cannot find any software updates which may resolve this.
I am hoping in time that the manufacturer will resolve this.

Hey Keyth, thanks so much for your kind comment. This channel has some content for pros but was created for amateurs and hobbyists, people like me that needs to take a informed decision before spending a few hundred bucks in very expensive test equipment.

This is caused by processor overheating there are modifications posted online to fix
Great and very informative video. I’m planning to getting a scope for audio work. Mostly for troubleshooting/calibrate cassette deck. How should one to connect scope input to cassette deck output? BNC scope input to RCA deck output? Or using probe clip? Thanks in advance
Hi, the probe is always better in my humble opinion, since is compensated. Personally, I use also the RCA to BNC cables, or even, the Jack 3.5mm to BNC when needed. They're cheap, you can get all and see what works better for you. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the reply. I’m a bit confused and can’t really figure out how to connect/use the probe. Let’s say I want to measure voltage of cassette deck output. I can measure left and right output with ch1 and ch2 probe, correct? The probes clip on the positive terminal of the output? Do you have any tutorials video showing these steps?
What coax cable can i use for function generator .... 75 ohm? 50 ohm? or either 300 ohm? is it important how much is my coax cable impedance in this case??
Hi, yes it is important, I use the 50ohm one and in certain cases you might want to terminate it with a 50ohm terminator. Thanks for watching.
@@TechCornerTVthanks for answer too 👍👍
Great review, very informative, thank you. I think overall this is better than the FNIRSI 1014, no?
In short, yes, that is my opinion. I little bit more expensive but worth the diference. The way I see it is, FNIRSI 1014D is by far the most easy to work, but lack some important features. OWON SDS1102/SDS1104 is very stable but is missing the function generator, yet very good device. Hantek 2Dxx seems to have the best set of features in the bunch... again, in my opinion. In the next week I will join the 3 in the workbench and do a comparation video. Stay tunned 😁 Thank you for watching and commenting! 👍

You DID NOT comment at all about where you got the SW or how to install SW on PC. All you did was talk about the stupid functions of the PC display software. That aspect is very easy shit. Was this SW generated by Hantek or someone else ? Why did you evade the question above ? Please STOP your bull-shit attitude and get serious about delivering good, wholesome, technical information. @@TechCornerTV
As a low cost beginner oscilloscope, is the 2C10 good for just looking at signals and data?
Hello! Yes, I have that model and is a very complete model for a begginer, you'll alright in my opinion. Thanks for watching 👍
@@TechCornerTV You're welcome! I already purchased the 2c10, and its pretty good! Thank you sir!

hi friend, i have a problem i downloaded de software in my pc with windows 10 but isnt compatible, can you give me the software please?
Hi, what do you mean? I downloaded the software from the Hantek website also and I'm using Windows 10... can you be explain better the issue? See the part in the video where I show how to download and install the software. Thanks for watching!
Maybe you need to install the required driver?? I'll let you know after I receive my 2D15....

So we don't need a frequency counter anymore with this DSO?
Hi, you won't need a frequency counter but if you need a cycle counter this device will not do. Thanks for watching!
Olá! Não estou conseguindo conectar o meu osciloscópio no computador para uso com o Software. Será problema com Windows 11? Poderia mostrar como fazer o passo a passo de instalação ( Driver, Softwares, etc..). Obrigado!
Olá, olha existe um driver universal que dá para quase todos os aparelhos de eletrónica que está normalmente nos ficheiros de instalação do software. Tens de instalar esse primeiro, se não estou enganado é para suportar o chip CH340.

Greetings from Belarus! )
Please tell me what is better for a beginner to choose between Hantek DSO2D15 and Rigol ds1102z-e ?
Hello! Hard choice there or not, the Hantek is a very complete oscilloscope, but I always belive more in the Rigol quality. If you are beggining and want the complete package, go with hantek but beware that the bandwidth is not the 100/150Mhz they say and on Rigol you get exactly what they announce. So Rigol more accurate readings and overall quality, Hantek you have almost the complete package with some quality (only missing the logical analyser) but you have to compromise with some bugs and the bandwidth not being exactly what they announce. I will do a video testing the real bandwidth of the oscilloscopes I have really soon using the rise time method. But rest, you'll be ok with any of the products. Kudos to Belarus and thanks for watching!
Great review. Thank you for the chapter times.
Could you please tell me the name of the PC software?
Hey Rudolf, the name of the software is "Digital Scope" 😁 it is bundled with the oscilloscope. Thanks for watching 👍
hello every body, few days ago the Hanteck dso2D10 arrives in my house. I tried the SINGLE mode. Everything works with Edge RISING, but nothing work with Edge FALLING (or Either). someone have found the same as me ??
Hey Guy, I was unable to replicate....
Excellent Review!
Hello Werner! Thank you so much for your support. Episode 2 - The Sequel (follow-up) is on the forge with some topics not included in this one, it was already really long... hope to see you in that one also 😁 Kudos!
Hi
Recently I have bought an oscilloscope of this model 2d15 and I wanna know have it any pc software??
Hello, take a look at 40:05 of the video. Thanks for watching.
@@TechCornerTV thanks.
Should this scope accurately read dc voltage? like 13.8v reads 14.1 on mine and a battery at 1.44v reads 1.60v
Hello! It tend to get better with the latest updates.... but I never got it completely right. Thanks for watching! 👍
@@TechCornerTV I thought that it was only a problem measuring voltages less than one Volt?
Good review thanks for your effort and all at your own expense!
Thanks for watching and taking the time to write this nice support comment! Cheers 😁👍
Sometimes I will need to use it for mixed signal 2Hz and 500Khz. How does it behave on a low frequency? I heart some oscilloscopes have a problem. Mariusz.
Hey James, for what I read from other user comments, it handles low frequencies IF you don't use the AUTO function, you have to manually adjust. I didn't do the firmware upgrade yet to see if it solves some of those issues with the auto function. The experience I had with this oscilloscope is what you see in the video, I will do soon two videos, one with upgrade process and the seconde is the max/advertised bandwitdth testing using the rising edge method. Thanks for watching 👍
@@TechCornerTV Thanks. I will subscribe and wait. I just ordered Tex 2465A 350Mhz but I am still interested in a subject.
The internal function generator does it have Sweep function?
Hi, can't recall exactly, but I don't think so. That function is normally found on a dedicated function generator or more high end oscilloscopes. Thanks for watching.
@@TechCornerTV thank you for your response!
I saw in a teardown video that the scope does not have a internal cooling fan..
Does it get hot after sometime? Did you notice any performance related issues after long times of usage?
Great video btw!
Hi! I saw that video also, I can't confirm that it will crash after a long time usage, even if I got to crash it a couple of times during recording that took like 4 hours continuous operation. To be honest, I can't remember if Owon SDS1104 has fan, but that one never crashed even if doesn't have one. Thanks for watching, I'll have soon another one with real bandwidth measure using the fast rise edge signal analisys method. So keet tunned 😁
@@TechCornerTV thanks a lot for the reply! For some reason I did NOT get a notification from youtube (it does weird things)
That aside,
What do you think about the siglent SDS1102CML+ oscilloscope? It is a 100MHz rather than a 150MHz...
It has some REALLY good reviews.. The only things stopping me from buying it would be the lower bandwidth :(
It would be REALLY great if you could do a review on that scope in the following month :-)
Installing radiators on both IC inside is highly recommended
Was the firmware, it's fixed! Thanks for watching 👍
Hello, great video. I had this oscilloscope for a year now, and I need a better one with more channels. Which one do you recommend for a budget up to 2k?
Hi Carlos, for that price range you have a few option, me personally I would try the Owon XDS4000 line 350/500mhz oscilloscope or you have a great promotion on Rigol going on right now that you can buy the Rigol MSO5000 100Mhz 4Channels for about 900€ and then you can "upgrade" it to 500Mhz.... or buy already with full speed for something like 2K. You probably have other option in R&S or Siglent,, Keysight, but I'm not familiar with the models.... hope it helped! If you buy on Aliexpress or Amazon, please don't forget our affilaite links to access, helps a lot www.techcorner.tv/aliexpress or www.techcorner.tv/amazon. Thanks for watching! 👍
@@TechCornerTV thanks a lot for replying I’ll look into those recommendations
At time 19 minutes, in measure mode, I see that you can display 4 of the most favourite parameters, but I could only save a max of 4 over the 2 channels. Can you save 4 or more parameters per channel? I have had my DSO2D15 1 week, your description far better than the digital manual, thanks:-)
Hi Barry, that is a pitty only showing 4 values, but if you take a notice on minute 18:45, you have all the possibly values for one channel at once in the screen. The thing is it has to be by channel, not both. Yeah, it could be improved a lot this system. Thanks for watching.

Hi, this is a great oscilloscope, very complete. It was some issues, but nothing special for the price range it is. Yes, portuguese is my natural language and I have a twin channel with these same videos but in portuguese (in case it interests you), the link for this video in portuguese is this th-cam.com/video/7hHm2AkLkJc/w-d-xo.html .

Your review prompted me to purchase a DsO2000 series 150Mhz oscilloscope however during testing I noticed that be it slne or square wave at low input levels such as 800mv the screen becomes very jittery, have you noticed such behavior please help me as Im new to digital storage oscilloscopes any advice will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Hey Navin! No sweat, there is an issue with triggering at low voltages, I noticed that a very low voltages, bellow 100mV, but some users here mentioned that it is a problem when you use the AUTO fuction, if you tune it manually it will be ok and I can confirm, that I had similiar experience. I preparing a video for the upgrade of firmware and I am expecting that this upgrade can solve some of this issues. Thanks for watching and your comment. 👍
@@TechCornerTV Hi thanks for your quick response I new there had to be some problem anyway other than that it really is a versatile instrument thanks again and look forward to the upgrade.
@@TechCornerTV hello, do you know if the updated firmware will solve the issue?
@@333cgs333 Are you talking about FNIRSI or Hantek? FNIRSI, it might... there some users that report not having the same problems I had. In the Hantek I will record a video soon showing how to upgrade and if the problems mantain or not...
@@TechCornerTV Fantastic, already looking forward the video. Got the Hantek for over a year now. quite happy with it. but thinking about stepping up. what would you recommend in the USD1-2k bracket, what about the USD 2-3k bracket?
I have choice from this hantek and rigol 1054z . I choose my first oscilloscope home for my hobbies. But I also study at the university in radio engineering and in the future I may need an oscilloscope for more complex tasks. The price difference between these models is almost twofold, it's a pity for the money. But many people write that the quality of Rigol is very different from Hantek and it is worth overpaying. I would not want to spend money on hantek and buy something in the future. The question for you is: how to be in this situation?
How'you doing! Look, the Rigol oscilloscopes are normally "upgradable", so even the 50Mhz model you should be able to upgrade to 100Mhz. If it was me, I would save 60 more euros and buy the DS1074Z Plus that already has 16 digital channels. But if you don't need them, you may go with the 1054Z, is always a good option. The diference for the Hantek 2D1* models is the function generator, but in terms of product I believe you'll be better served with the Rigol, thats my opinion. Also a nice choice will be the Owon XDS2102A 8" touch screen 12bits vertical resolution. But between the two you mentioned, I'd choose Rigol. But look, nothing is static, Hantek right now will be a better choice because is cheaper and has everything you might need for hobby/university and in the future if you consider that is limiting your work, sell that one on OLX, eBay, whatever and buy a new one that better fit your needs. Hope it helped and thanks for watching 😁
@@TechCornerTV Thank you very much for your answer, I will choose)
Hi Hugo, is that DMM accuracy issue solved? I have to share some experience. The scope is actually very accurate in measuring dc rms. But u have to follow these procedures.
1. Connect the voltage needed to be measured.
2. Then press autoset.
3. Then the dmm will show a somewhat accurate value.
4. Now u have to decrease the offset by turning the offset pot. So the voltage will come down, and now you have to increase the volts per devision, in such a way that the trace can be seen on the scope.
5. Now the voltage shown by dmm will be very accurate.
Plz try this Hugo.
Hi! I will follow your procedures on my final test. I made a mV Rederence Board that is already on the way from PCBWay and I will test the oscilloscope one last time with this device. I will try your indication! Thanks for watching! 👍
How about a bandwidth and a risetime measurement?
Hello Joop! You're right, that is missing, but it was already defined that I need a second follow-up video, this one is really big and I still have several things to cover, I'll include that in the follow-up video with also a teardown'ish of the oscilloscope, how to "upgrade" to 150Mhz (maybe) and a few other things. Thank you for watching and your comment! 👍
HANTEK DSO2C10 measures 12v battery voltage. Why does channel 1 measure more than channel 2?
Channel 1 measured MAX 12.8V, but channel 2 measured 12.2v.
The difference is approximately 0.6v.

Thanks for the video. I'm trying to decide between Hantek 2D15 w/ waveform generator 150Mhz ($259.99) versus Rigol 1202Z-E 200Mhz ($299 ). I'm a hobbiest, any advice from anyone is helpful on this choice.
was even thinking of a $100 one but people steered me away. I like that the Hantek can connect to a PC. is the Rigol pretty good on PC also versus hantek? thanks
Hi, personally, I would go with the Rigol. You'll lose the function generator, but the rigol also has protocol decoding. In terms of accuracy (and even if I didn't tested this model) usually Rigol as supperior results than the Hantek. With Rigol you'll have 200Mhz instead of 150Mhz, 24Mbps instead of 8Mbps memory depth, well among other things. I'm not Rigol sponsored, just my 5 cents on the topic. Hantek gives you more features and it tends to be easier to work, the FFT works pretty well and overall has a lot of functions, is a very complete unit. Rigol is more established, more accurate and a little bit harder to work with, the UI is not so user friendly, but that doesn't mean you can't get things done, quite the oposite, you can do everything and is a very powerful tool. For a hobbyst you'll be tottaly fine with the hantek if you don't want to spend more money. Thanks for watching 👍

Do you still keep the title "Awessome Oscilloscope" after all the problems over the year with the Hantek and the problem taking low measurements or accuracy?
Hi! Ahahaaha that was a nice catch! Well done 😁 here's the thing, I try not to mess with my old videos, so you can have an history, when this device was released and my first analysis I did get a good impression on it, I still do. It has problems, for sure, but will give a lot for a reasonable price. I do reviews of other devices in the same range and for that range, let's not compare with rigol or siglent that are much more expensive, and considering everything, it's not that bad. Again for the same price range and for accuracy, I will go with Owon, but than you don't have the protocol decoder, function generator and some other perks. Thanks for watching! 👍

HI, well this video I think it has over an year, but I agree with you. Owon also released recently some 14-bit oscilloscopes at a very good price. The market will adapt and ajust to this new reallity. Thanks for sharing and for watching.
As far as price, look its this simple if it advertises it suppose to do something then it should , just because its low cost should have to bearing on what it claims it does.
Hi Budha, you're right! But if the world was perfect we wouldn't have a huge war right now going on. We are not in perfect world and sometimes (many) the manufacturers won't tell you the specs as they should. They claim the speed on a techincal details of the components the oscilloscope, but most of the times those components are unable to achieve the specs they mention. One fun example is the laser engravers, where they announce something 40W laser, but that is the consumed energy, not the optical power, that most of the times is 5W.... but thanks for you comment and for watching! 👍

eevblog have a massive thread detailing just how many many many problems and bugs and issues there are with this 'scope. check it out before even thinking of buying.
I saw the thread on the e-mail and unfortunetelly it seems a pattern in this entry level oscilloscopes, after some time of usage I detected also a few issues with FNIRSI 1014D... the OWON SDS1104 that I tested, until now seems to be more stable.

Hello Steve, yeah I got what you saying. Look, as I mencioned before, my first oscilloscope was a Rigol MSO2101A it cost me near 1000€, and I decided to spend that because I wanted a very stable device that if something goes wrong with the readings, I can be sure that was because of me and not the equipment. To be honest, today I probably will go to the Owon 3000 series, it is a bit cheaper and have 14bits resolution, anyway I totally understand what you're saying. Take a look in a midle range Owon 3000 series or a Rigol 1054Z is at good price right now and siglent also has good products. Season greatings and thanks for watching! 👍
Disappointment (very) with Hantek DSO2D10 scope . Hantek in China finally responded with instruction to re-flash firmware.Followed instruction exactly and the results were WORST > now CH1 zero is off by 800mV and reading 4V on 5V. CH2 was as bad as before. Contacted Hantek again and cannot help and was asked to contact seller! ( the seller was Hantek Official Store) If you are thinking of buying this beware you are on your own for service and repair. It would be questionable on the logistic , honour and followup repair all the way from China
I really hope you can solve your issue...
Rule number one if they call themselves the official store they’re not.
Thanks

So I just bought the Hantek DSO2D15 with the sole intention of returning it by the end of month next month since Amazon has returned policy until Jan 31st.
I plan on getting the RIGOL MSO5074 70Mhz beast with the full intention of hacking it into a full-fledged 350Mhz scope! It's quite abit more money but after the hack, I think it will be well worth it! I love the fact it has a big touch screen!
Hello Steve, I was this close to buy one MSO5074 myself.... with Rigol promotions is at 800 and something euros, cheaper than mine... and yes, with upgrades we can take it too 350Mhz.... but I already spent so much money in equipment... I REALLY had to control myself 😁 it is a very nice device, kudos! Keep me posted about the usage of that unit. PS - A note that will help you if you haven't bought already and I don't have anything with them, but batterfly.com has every 10% discount in the end of the year, with the Rigol promotion you can even get a better price, free shipping. 👍
@@TechCornerTV I'm in the USA and Butterfly doesn't look like they ship to the US. :/
The way I look at it is that I'll probably have this $1,000 oscilloscope for the rest of my life and it will serve me better than the other oscilloscopes I've been looking at. I don't need to add more troubleshooting issues in my already complex projects I have by having to worry if my scope is working properly or even worse, freezing up on me.
I don't have a complete lab setup like you have but I do have the essentials minus a scope with a function generator at the moment.
I do plan on selling some of my projects as hobbyists kits and even consumer electronic products such as a "smart" heater with a constant heat setting that allows you to set an exact temperature you and blowing out the exact temp you had requested.
@@driversteve9345 You're right, Batterfly is in Italy. Well at least you have the Rigol promotion, it is a big help in terms of price.

Hi! Brazil, wonderful land, I've been there several times. I apprecciate your comment and suggestion, I will add it to my todo list to create a newbie video explaining the oscilloscope and how to use it. Thanks for watching! 👍
The Red ring is swappable with your desired color from the same probe package which you have already seen; One probe is not stupid, a machine with functions that is not supposed to be there for a price that is maybe 50 times cheaper than ones from K-brand while comes with everything in the package is stupid. You don't complain about the silverware not real silver when you are dining at a Michelin 3 star for McDonald's price, right?
Hello Simeng, well in general I say this is a nice unit for the price, you can have one or other detail that isn't "perfect", but is totally acceptable considering what is delivered and the cost vs benefict ratio. On test made later, it is notorious the lack of precision with auto and low voltages. But again, in general, this is a good package of features. Thanks for watching and for your input! 👍
@@TechCornerTV I think this is where you hit the spot. A cheap scope has the reason to be cheap, cheap on the material, the peripherals, the build quality or the functionality, etc. That probe is €2 if you buy it separately and it comes with a pack of colored rings. If I can get a key sight this cheap, I don’t care if there is no probe at all. But coming with fancy functions that doesn’t work or lack of accuracy even for the same level products that should have had that’s stupid. All in all, I should have said that your video is packed with information and details and that is valuable to people who is just looking for something like this but have no idea what they are getting for the money. Your video give people nearly hands-on experience and that is really important for decision making. Thanks!
(26:34) Rigol and Siglent scope dont freeze up. Its been years and Hantek's rubbish scopes still freeze, no thanks.
Hey John, after long hours of usage of my Rigol I already managed to freeze it, but I think is my fault, the place where my is, isn't the most appropriate, I have to get a better shelf solution for my workbench. But yeah, its a total diferent story in quality, but let's be honest, there is a huge difference in price. I think this entry level oscilloscopes are needed, I've seen here in the channel viewers that have to save money a lot of time to spend some in a oscilloscope and if they have to buy one with the double the price, they can't afford it, so isn't perfect, but solves some problems, there is a market for all. Thanks for watching and sharing! 👍
Hello. Freezes of this oscilloscope are corrected by installing a radiator. Here's a video: th-cam.com/video/8yar8_ZTyEM/w-d-xo.html
Awesome! But that heatsink costs cents, it should be already installed... and also, I can see in the video that it was place for a fan but none is installed. Even so, its a very nice oscilloscope for the price. I like it. Thank you for watching and for your tip, very nice. Thank you! 👍
@@TechCornerTV Thank you for the detailed, honest reviews. I bought myself a 2B15 on Aliexpress and only today I received it in the mail. The first impressions of him are positive. Didn't hang up yet. But I have already prepared hot melt glue and radiators 8)
Thank you so much for your nice comment buddy! I hope to keep up the doing videos that meet the expectations!😁I hope you enjoy your new oscilloscope! Chees. 👍
it should have 2 probes for oscilloscope but you know its Chinese made so Chinese thinking you have buy another probe for the 2nd channel you know its Chinese way of business
Hi Jose, don't get me wrong, but the probe that they deliver costs $5/5€ on aliexpress. The handheld 2 channels oscilloscope that I recently tested (SigPeak DSO2512) was delivered with 2 of them. It's not from being chinese, today everything comes from china. Hantek was simply cheapskate with this DSO2000 series. 🤦♀️ Thanks for watching 👍
I'd do a backflip to see highest square wave frequency ....
Bought a Hantek occiloscope a couple of years ago, it failed after just over a year and the tech who looked at it said the soldering in it was so bad. Multiple bad joints all over the board. Not worth repairing. Would never buy another Hantek device.
Hey Ken, in that department, I trust much more in Owon, it belongs to Lillyput a huge company that produces hi end tech for television channels and professional stuff, Owon is just a part of their business, they are used to supply equipment that can't fail. Hankek is big, but sometimes I think they're a bit messy in their work. The DSO2000 firmware is kind of proof of that. Thanks for sharing and watching! 👍

Thanks for watching! 👍
Блин, автор, все было бы здорово если бы не постоянное эээээ, мэээ, мнэээ...
Hi, I've been told... this is a very old video, in the latest ones I tried to correct that. I think that it is better, but, I'm trying to improve. Thanks for watching and you comment.
thanx... as expected it froze.... wont buy.... also,, no freq sweep
Yeap, no frequency sweep. Thanks for watching and your comments ! 👍
why... do you write... like you're about... to die of... exhaustion
I was wondering why the damn guy is so antipathetic. Now I know he's Portuguese. Not Brazilian, for sure
Hi there, I will take that as compliment, proud Portuguese for the last 50 years.. Thanks for watching.
No thanks
Hey Pat, no problem! My first oscilloscope was (is) a Rigol MSO2102, but not everyone has the money for that. This is a nice option for someone that can't afford more. Anyway, thanks for watching and your comment! 👍
