Wow, looks great! I want a new DMM for my garage/workshop, and they're cheap enough. One thing I can't find out, is .... does the continuity setting have a beeper?? Handy as heck for tracing without looking at a screen.
Great review. For the people who dismiss these inexpensive meters out of hand they miss out on the improvements that have occurred over the past few years. I got my first multimeter for 50$ and while it was a good unit it cost the same as this unit and didn't have an oscilloscope! It had a hard to read low contrast display. It ran on a 9 volt battery that you had to unscrew the rear cover to remove and recharge. This multimeter has a really bright display with the needle function for all you Simpson guys. The battery can be recharged with a simple USB cable plugged into any USB output. You can remove the 200 ma battery and replace it with say a 500 and double your battery run time. It can do screen caps which it can store on it's built in memory and export to a computer over USB as a bitmap. And I've seen teardowns showing the internal construction of the unit and the quality is really quite good. So for a hobbyist who wants to do some DIY projects with breadboards and Arduinos this is a great meter to use for probing various parts of a circuit to see what's going on. The scope function would be useful in projects with audio outputs for measuring frequency and also for looking at PWM signals in motor control circuits for all you robotics guys. For the newbie to electronics this is like the Swiss Army Knife of multimeters! And I think this unit is actually made by Aneng and rebranded. I have a Rigol 2 channel DSO and a Rigol bench multimeter but I think I'm going to get one of these to replace my old handheld.
Thank you very much. That was very helpful. I actually got one of these from Temu for £35!! I am just starting out learning electronics so this is more than what I need at this stage. I am now going to watch your next vid on this brilliant little machine
I picked this meter up recently from Amazon to supplement my main scope. For doing some AC power supply work and not worrying about ground issues. If I do something stupid and blow up this meter/scope that is better than damaging my expensive scope.
That ZOYI has a nice display and a nice rounded shape. I bought the OWAN 100 MHz scope-meter a year or so ago, which is nice too but is comparatively boxy. I like having a hand held scope for automotive diagnostics an for when I need isolation, alternate to using a differential probe. Its also nice having a meter on the bench that does not keep timing out, assuming it is pugged into USB, especially since I don't own a bench meter.
Very nice review! Can it work with old 8 bits computers and videogames ? square waves clocks from 1MHz to 4.77MHz and NTSC 3.58MHz video signal ? Thanks and best regards!
Thanks for the nice overview of a rather impressive gadget! I've saved it in my Amazon basket and will most likely grab one (even if I don't strictly speaking need it), so I hope your link is an affiliated one. 🙂
Love to see more on this. Good video as always.

Good clear review and demonstration, I think I might get one of these
It is more than enough for everyday tasks and the measurement accuracy is very good. I have been using it for about 1 month and I am very satisfied.

It should be fine for the signals you mention

I’m waiting for mine to clear and be delivered
This looks like a great piece of kit for the price.
Yes good review, please do a longer term detailed follow up video, I have one on order.

thanks for the video. could you please do some videos on how to use a spectrum analyser and what they can be used for?
Yes more, more. Reviews seem to be all good, and I just received mine.
See my latest video, out this morning....
top job
Good morning Bill. Very good review and what a brilliant tool. I would love to see more on this scope, thank you.
