Thanks for the review! I actually would not have minded you doing a teardown as well. Quite frankly, Dave's teardowns leave a lot to be desired sometimes ("Some sort of chip, couldn't find any datasheet, your guess is as good as mine" on a SOC with the datasheet being the second hit on google, that sorta thing...) This is less to poo-poo on EEVblog, rather my point is: Don't be afraid of doing something that someone else did too. There's room for more than one teardown on the internet ;)
This is a Very impressive Oscilloscope by it's new features alone, and it being able to display Lissajous correctly is extremely impressive! Thanks for reviewing!
Kerry Wong does nice teardown videos. EEV blog seems bit biased against the entry level Chinese scopes. You must give credit to these manufacturers of such gadgets made affordable for students and hobbyists.
I have a big scope in my lab, but I got one of these for the Ham Shack to keep an eye on RF waveforms. It's fantastic for that simple job. Works great!
I bought a fnirsi dmm scope combo and have been happy with it. I was able to debug the video section of the replica Ohio Scientific superboard computer I've been working on. I also got their usb powered soldering iron and have made it my go-to because it is so nice.
Yes it's one of those where all the banner specs only count when a single channel is labelled, but on the plus side for a chinese o'scope it doesn't seem to be plain lying about them for once (sooo many in the past...) Generator would be a tiny bit nicer if you could at least adjustably-decrease the amplitude of it to some degree. I bought one earlier, it's a pity, after a month or two or sale they figured they could make much friendlier (to press) buttons and changed the look. For the size though, and without having to spend Rigol money yet, it's pretty good.
I see the specs and want to get one but Fnirsi has burned me twice before. Its expensive in my part of the world because they aren't sold locally and both times their products have either died suddenly or over promised and not lived up to specs.
There appears to be a slightly different version of this with the same model number. Costs a little more. Perhaps it's updated. Casing logo and buttons look a little different
It's not bugged. Phosphor oscilloscopes work like this: the part of the signal that happens extremely quickly has a lower brightness than the part of the signal that is repeated more times in a space of time.
@@mariafernandapedrosa458yeah, I know, but really the fastest lines fades too much. It was fixed. I bought one of these and fixed mine updating the firmware.
Eh while it seems to be technically decent I can't help but notice it sounds like very cheap plastic when you move it about. I'm not sure what market segments it's targeting, it's not really rugged enough for automotive use and it's rather lacking for bench use considering you can get a 200MHz 2ch Siglent scope for a bit less than 3x the price, it doesn't seem good value to me.
get a logic analyzer instead ! this product wont do these because it doesn't have a built-in logic analyzer it may show i2c signals because it uses 2 wires but spi uses 4 wires
Sigh. I spent a month on and off looking for an inexpensive handheld scope that was the real deal. I finally selected one and purchased it a couple of months ago. It does everything it said it would do, but it was $70 more than this one and won't do as much as this. Sigh. But it seems like that's going to be the case for sometime to come with handheld scopes. They get better and better and cheaper and cheaper by the month. That's a good problem to have. I guess I'll just get myself a new one for my birthday every year and give my old one to some kid who I'm Elmering who's interested in doing more than just DXing.
did you get the hantek dso2c10? actually it is still better than this fnirsi usually lies about their specs + a bench oscilloscope in most cases is better than a hand held one especially from this company
the problem that they tend to lie about the specs of their devices , the finrsi 1013d says it has 100 mhz bandwidth while in the real world it is only 30 !
A bandwidth of 30 factorial = 2*10^32 Hz is >1000 faster than the highest Gama ray that has been observed, tat is much better than 100 milli Hz= 0.1 Hz. If that is true then it is probably a world record in understating specifications. 😂
I recently purchased a QMX transceiver kit from QRP Labs and after assembly everything works EXCEPT I am getting zero power output on transmit. Would this scope be sufficient to do some signal tracing / troubleshooting? I realize I can't connect it directly to the PA output or I will blow it up, but I think there are some examples out there on how to create a sampling circuit.
A cool little scope. Thanks for the review :-) I always look forward to my daily dose of IMSAI Guy 👍

Dave is pretty biased too. But remember he us used to using top if the line professional gear. So his reviews are from a professional standpoint...

Kerry Wong is the other youtuber mentioned at 10:41, anyone that likes this channel would probably find his interesting as well.
Oh, I thought it was DiodeGoneWild but I was surprised he didn't feature this model.

Whoa! A scope Daniel "DiodeGoneWild" Danyk hasn't made a video on. He's my to-go channel on Fnirsi gear :).
He released one to Pateons two days ago.

the square wave is buggy in this review. There is a firmware update to fix that.
thanks. I will go try the new firmware

What's the best fit handheld scope to buy? Without cost being too big? Usage light flickering analysis using sensor and scope
I have one of those for about 4 months, the thing that is most FRUSTRATING is triggering at low frequencies (
What firmware version you have on your scope? Have you checked the latest one?

Nice, but ill wait till it can do decodes on i2c spi and serial comms etc

fnirsi usually lies about their specs
+ a bench oscilloscope in most cases is better than a hand held one especially from this company
most of the FNIRSI oscilloscopes had a very limited vertical sensitivity of 50 mV/div min. What is it on this one?
ok looked it up it is 5 mv/div. Very impressive!

yes, it would be fine. you can probe the output with the scope probe without worry.
Hi do you know how to check firmware version on it?
