Had the opportunity to play a little with this. Its a two channel scope, a gen, and a DMM in one case.
Rechargeable and displays to a PC also.
Not comparable to full size and price gear performance, but portable and able for classic tasks in audio testing. Buttons and general build quality not bad. Comes in a hard carrying case.
Much better than getting by without gen and scope at all. Enough members don't have those absolutely useful tools. Like my friend the owner who had not any and finds it suitable for his needs. Signal path tracing and channels gain matching in tube gear for instance. Costs ~150 Euro.
The gen keeps running when in scope mode too. Thus the system can work standalone for a loop test. As it did in the following pictures. They are about:
1. Transformer secondaries 50Hz phase scoping.
2. Capturing 1kHz square from its own gen again.

They have a 40MHz one too. This one is the 70MHz. Watch it to be a 2D model because the 2C models don't have a generator. That gen is good. Probably the best performing mode. Has no troublesome ringing and measures 7ns rise time. Just a little bit of the usual square edge peaking that gets ironed out if on proper 50Ω termination. Also steady up to 999.9kHz square. Then on, the trailing edge visually dithers at exact 1 MHz intervals on a bench scope. In between it stays put and ghosts the jitters. The scope mode is bit shaky so its not easy to monitor timing subtleties as surely anyway. But its passable. Does the job.
I tried its PC software today. Can be downloaded at the manufacturer's site. Has nice features but updating slow. Every one second or so. Alright, its nice seeing it large and allowing more measurements or math functions etc. but not good for real time refresh. Most practical aspect is it can save a screenshot I guess. Such as this pic where I fed its scope inputs with sinewaves from a dual channel bench generator.
