What do you think of this Metal Detector? For the price of $269.00 USD it may not replace your high end machines but I think it has strong potential to be a backup or main unit for someone just getting into metal detecting.
Good buy Austin! I’ve owned the Equinox 700 for three weeks now, great machine. I’m thinking seriously on buying the Exterra for a backup just because of being waterproof. The VDI’S are the same as the NOX 700 so far 88-90 Quarter 81-83 dime 60-65 zinc penny 68-76 copper penny 78 usually a wheat penny. 25-28 nickel 29-39 pull tabs & 40-50 almost always a ring pull with beaver tail. Silver rings are also in the high 40’s to 50. 14K rings 10-16. Sorry about the long comment.
Good information! I think we'll have to see how it holds up but so far so good 👍
Just got my first metal detector. Thanks for the VDI’S. Very helpful.
@@robertkoch7431 Your Welcome. Nice machine. I think you’ll like it. Good luck!
@@robertkoch7431 practice and make small holes like surgery to recover your targets and always take the trash with you please Never ever put trash back into the hole ok 👌
Cool..buying one now
Just picked one up. Feels light, well balanced. Seems quality built. Interface is pretty user friendly. A bit more so than Simplex. Being able to adjust handle position is great. Took out for a quick swing. Hit on point for test targets. Happy do far.
If I was on a strict budget, new to the hobby, and wanting to hunt in the water at saltwater beaches I would choose it over the simplex, AT Max, and the other Minelab machine that isn't water proof that you use. But if I wanted a detector that could keep up with the expensive top of the line multi-frequency but didn't want to fork out close to a grand I would stick with the Nokta Legend. Deus II is my dream machine though just because it looks to be the lightest and best performer on the beach.
My thoughts exactly... I run a Legend (which I love) but am thinking about picking one of these up to have a backup machine and to have an extra incase I want to bring a non-detecting friend along. I'm not in a hurry though.. I'll give it a couple months for guys to dig in to it and make sure it's as good as I think it might be.
Just a heads up. I love the Deus 2 on the beach but I would say the Garrett Ace Apex is actually a very close comparison and much cheaper. I own both and love both
It’s actually Great ! My 600 leaked and I bought this for a backup machine it absolutely performs in the salt water as good as the Equinox does
Thanks for your content. Seems to a lot better than the Simplex on the beach. May have to be my next machine.
Great video showing the XT pro I've been looking at him to buy one for a long time now
Wow, minelab put a Simplex on the design staff table and said “make it look just like this”
Thanks for a straightforward video. I just ordered one. Been a while since I bought a new machine will be fun for the beach this summer!
Lets us know how it works out for you make a video
Very good out of the box hunt. I like it, I like it a lot.. I want one. Someday I will have one in hand.. Thanks Austin for your straight up honest reviews and Videos.. Peace Brother.
Thanks, Danny! I bet you can save up that clad in no time, you are a change digging machine! 🪙
@@TreasureOutdoors I am hoping by the end of spring to have the clad dug up. But if not at least I am having fun swinging and digging. ..
Would you recommend this as an upgrade from the Vanquish 340? I know you use the 440, but they're similar machines. For reference, I do park hunts mostly
My honest opinion is I can't say that the X-TERRA will find more.. but it offers you a few more features to play around with if you like that kind of thing. Different tones & options to experiment with. It feels a little more durable than the Vanquish... but my Vanquish has always treated me good!
Love this detector also a cool color!!
looking good!!! vdi seems a little jumpy, i get mine Sat. the first so will see how it likes the ground in Tennessee!
Hope you find the pirates doubloon, Bill! 🤠
Hey I really need some help. I’m looking to get my first detector. I’m stuck between the nokta findx pro, simplex lite, and the xterra pro. I’m trying to stay under $300. They’re all waterproof and seem pretty similar in features. What would you recommend? If you have any other recommendations under $300 new would be great. Thank you in advance! Love the channel dude!!
Previously had the MineLab CTX3030. But it died shortly after the warranty expired. I then bought an X Terra Pro and sent it back after 2 days. Depth and small parts had not been convincing. Then I bought a Golden Mask 5+se and it works really well! Also had a Fisher Gold Bug, a Whites MX7 and a Nokta Makro Simplex+. The best was the CTX3030 and right behind it was the Golden Mask 5+se.
Never heard of the Golden Mask but sometimes those lesser known machines can be the best! I'm still trying to figure out the X-Terra but I bet it can't compete with the CTX. 👍
What would you choose for all purpose metal detector, Vanquish 540 or X-Terra Pro? If possible make a comparison video. Thanks.
Haven't used the X-TERRA enough yet but so far I'm liking it.
@@TreasureOutdoors If possible make a comparison video. Thanks.
X Terra better
I'm getting a detector for my dads birthday. Garrett ace 250 or minelab x terra pro?
the out of round shaft is a huge improvement
Put sensitivity down to 17 in the water 💦 and it’s very quite in beach 2 it’s sensitive to smaller targets that’s the diff between simplex small golds won’t be left behind 💙🇬🇷🏖💪
? It's not good for small gold?
@__Salty it's good on small gold XTP is very good 💙🇬🇷🏖👍
@@beachmetaldetectingcrete Thank you.
The beach is the easiest spot to look. Best test is mineralized ground. I’m thinking about pulling the trigger on this.
Disappointing they didn't make this simultaneous multi frequency, it would basically be a waterproof vanquish and that's all I want in life hah.
They did... it's called the Equinox! Lol, I think this thing is like Vanquish and Equinox had a baby.
@@TreasureOutdoors But both other machines have multi freq. and this one hasn‘t. I‘d still go for the vanquish if I would wanna buy a new one now 🤌🏽
why is that disappointing, multi freq you cant have at that low price, still offers you so many features that ect you wont have
in a Simplex
That's what i'm thinking after a week of researching. Wanting to get into metal detecting.... But not wanting to spend Equinox prices.
Live videos of the X-Terra Pro show coins reading as iron in all frequencies, air tests from other videos show its limitations of depth are approximately 11 to 12 inches even with the 12 inch coil, but for people at the beach it's still a strong contender. Using old school Whites machines I found coins from the mid-1700s at no deeper than 9 to 10 inches, so target range depth is not the most important issue for me as a Nokta Simplex and Qwest Q10 Pro user, it's that casino slot machine sound of the Minelab and serious processing delay!. Notice the sounds are heard only after the coil has passed over the target. What I love about the Nokta Simplex is the old school threshold that enables you to find the deepest targets. Nokta plans to update the frequency of the Simplex from 12 to 15 MHz which will totally destroy its depth making the Minelab the leader of the pack, so sad. Any thoughts?
It has its quirks... but it's pretty good for $269. I always think every machine has a little advantage in some department.. whether it's price to performance, stability.. options or just pure depth. I still like my Simplex, nice & simple.. hope they keep it that way.
Will Nokta release an update for the current simplex or will the new frequency be on the newer version Simplex machines?
By old school I take it you mean the ones with all the many knobs and the metal box. I've enjoyed my mx sport but it bit the dust in the water
Looks like a good one
I'll be interested to see how you feel about this machine compared to the Vanquish. It will be time to buy my granddaughter a real detector soon. I was going to give her my Vanquish 440 but should probably consider this, too...or a simplex. Let me know your opinion. Thanks!
I like my Vanquish but this guy has been treating me good so far too.. I think time will tell! 👍
@@TreasureOutdoors You also have a Simplex, right? After you get some time with the Xterra, maybe a comparison video of the three would be cool? Like weight, ergonomics, easy to set, etc.. Just an idea for when you have nothing else to do...lol...like THAT happens.
Thanks just got an X-Terra pro myself looking forward to seeing more of your videos 👊👍
Hope you have fun out there with it! :)
let me know what you think. i got a gold monster. but not good in wet sand. been looking at the equinox. 600 ,700. also. be out looking for gold this weekend. have a good day.
Pay streak super freak hit a gold ring his first time out with the new xterra!! Wish you the same luck :)
Do you think its better than Simplex Ultra ?
I have been doing really good with the simplex+ I am holding at 12 gold rings several silver things one silver ring today 10\30/2024 also several gold pendants also 2 gold bracelets one big 14kt and a child's 10k great easy machine to master but it's ageing thinking of a new extends pro or the new simplex ultra ?!!!
I think it mostly comes down to preference, they both are going to beep on the majority of the same stuff just in different way.👍I'm sure they both have their strengths & weaknesses.
@@TreasureOutdoors I have done incredibly well w/simplex+ I have worn out two AT-pros and nearly a third in my hunts not from abuse no from lots of hunting in lots of difficult areas I transitioned to Nokia S.+ it was nearly the same sounds and numbers
I have done great this year so far with 12 gold rings four gold pendents two Gold I’d bracelets one 18.2 grams also 9 Silver rings 2silver necklaces and boat load of metal trash now in the dump and pounds yes pounds of coinage so far for 2023, I do have a three stage bet going w/pal for 60.00… 20.00 for first gold ring (I lost) 20.00 for the best gold (still pending)and 20.00 for the most gold (also Still pending)this bet ends on 01/01/2024 😃✌️
Let's Face it...even a 79dollar MD...will give a signal, for the price this looks like a very good weekend warrior detector..😂😂😂
Is it still going strong? I live on the beach and am considering this detector as my first metal detector buy
Still debating which machine to get for my first and bring $$ wise these days.
So many options out there to choose from these days!
Was up were my hat with your logo
Man, now you have a quite investment in Metal Detectors... cheers
Been looking at allot of different metal detectors as I want to get into the hobby and never had one before I think I’m going to buy the Minelab xterra pro as it’s affordable it’s waterproof as it rains allot in England and seems good I would like a nox but I don’t really want to pay £600/£900 straight away so think I will be getting this detector unless anyone else has any other better recommendations at roughly the same price will appreciate any advice as I’ve got allot to learn
Interesting machine. Thanks for showing it
When you say the simplex are you referring to simplex plus or the ultra? It’s one or the other for me once I’ve seen more reviews
Simplex Plus, haven't used the ultra.... yet 👍
Simplex is good but mine is ageing need a better one not sure if I will buy as minelab ExTerra pro or the Simplex ultra
Love this machine
One thing I haven't seen addressed is the battery pack. According to a response I got from Minelab is that they do not offer a replacement battery pack for the X-terra Pro to anyone, even dealers. It would be covered under the 3 year warranty, but what are you suppose to do after the warranty is expired? I was ready to order one, but this has it on hold for a while and hope a replacement pack will be available in the near future.
I tend to keep my detectors for a long time, like my first one from the 1960's (a BFO machine) that i still have.
Great vid and look forward to seeing more from you!
People don't think much long term anymore but that is a good point.
I just looked it up & it looks like it might use the same or similar battery as the Equinox 600 & 800. If that's the case there are some after market sellers of the batteries for around $30-36... so hopefully they fit the X-Terra. Looks like X-Terra has a 3.7V/5100mah battery in it, think it's in the handle.
@@TreasureOutdoors I ended up getting one a couple of weeks ago. It is in the handle and I found out it does take the same battery as the new model Nox. Not the older models with the round battery, but the newer 600 and 800 models. Als found out you can run it while charging, that means you can have a battery bank in your pocket and run a cord long enough to the detector and keep going if you get caught with the detector running out before you do.😁
Awesome detector it remind of Etrac great listen by tone😊
How many feet does it hold?
I like it that us a goid metaldetectier
No reason to run beach mode in dry sand. The higher frequencies would find smaller items and be more sensitive to gold and nickels in the dry. Wet sand, def beach mode.
It’s certainly not all hype, what a great machine
Seems like u have the shakes more so than me and I’m 61, may just be my phone but it does look a little shaky video
What's best for new hunter?Vanquish 440 or xtera Pro??
Both good, people will tell you different things... I think they both have their PROS & CONS👍
Ordered xtera Pro
Did you bring in your change to buy it?
Yes! $269.00 of crusted quarters and dimes! I'm keeping my nickels 😁
I just ordered me one
This machine is going to do dominate lol
I think it's hard to go wrong for the price point 👍
Would you go for X Terra or the Nokta?
Both good machines in different ways, watch a few videos and see which one you like better. 👍
Σε τι βάθος μπορεί να φτάσει;;; Γιατί εγω ψάχνω μόνο στα βουνά.ΠΧ μια κατσαρόλα 30×30 σε ποίο βάθος θα την ανακάλυψη;;;;1 μέτρο 1,30 1,40 ευχαριστώ...
I really liked your video, keep it up!
Liked and subscribed aswell :D
Looks like a decent machine!
For a 12 year old would you recommend this are the vanquish 340
The Vanquish is simple but powerful and comes with a slightly smaller coil which I honestly think might be better suited for someone learning, helps to recover items faster for a beginner.
The X-Terra gives more room to grow, has a lot more options & settings with a rechargeable battery & waterproof.
Both great machines, no wrong choice. 👍
I like the dry sand too thats where the rings are
I've had some pretty good luck in the dry sand. 👍💍👍
I found a ring for a couple who shook it off there blanket that's where I stayed ever since
Anybody have any experience with a Minelab Explorer SE?? Planning on getting one. It is older but I have heard nothing but good things.
Never used one but if you get a good price I bet it'll work. 👍
The Exsplorer has a big mental power curve be warned
Great Machine
Anyone had it submerged? Ive worn out my at pro in lakes.Cant afford a New one.
I've taken it under twice so far, no issues yet!
How does it match up with the 540?
Two different beasts, X-Terra Pro has more options to work with & it's waterproof but Vanquish runs Multi-Frequency & is more of a "turn on & go" which has always treated me good at the beach.. think it kind of just depends on what you are looking for. 👍
@TreasureOutdoors it'll be mostly for field work due to living 2 hours away from any beach lol. Do you have a setup video?
Is it water proof ,
Waterproof to 16ft
Someone please tell me how to buy it online 🙏🙏🙏
Kelly do metal detectors
nice Video 👍
I'm done with the minelabs,the waterproof 800 wasn't,terrible build quality is legendary,good luck x terra.
I like to give 'em a chance, we'll see how it holds up!
Wouldn't be surprised if they do an update later in the year, and make it multi frequency.
And kill sales of the Vanquish and Equinox in the process? No I dont think so.
If anyone can tell us....I trust your opinion above anybody else's!!!🤔
Great for the $$$
Light weight love it!
Really Awesome machine !!!
Not a botte cap it says pure GOLD. lol
Runs almost the same numbers on the simplex
Nice =)
The Only thing I dont like is the Poor Excuse for a Manual the Xterra comes with. If you are new to detecting or have not used a detector before one would find the user Manual or should I say Brochure really Vague and confusing.
That small thing was pretty lackluster.. you can find a more detailed manual for it online, definitely helps out a lot. 👍
@@TreasureOutdoors Thanks for the Heads up on the online Manual.
Please do a wet sand hunt
I just put some clips up from a live stream I did, found some stuff by the water line. 🪙
simplex+ is better than this. have low range and low depth
Simplex still a great machine 👍
😂 not in wet salt sand. Simplex is really nice, but you have 12khz and thats it. This gives you options and much more pleasant tones and stable id. Sorry, but this has dethroned the simplex
