There is only one detector better than Deus - it is Deus with larger coil!

[ionut_mtb]

People talking about 1600€ for full setup. I like new tones (square) - on xp site you can play with them. FAST multi freq might be a plus - faster recovery speed than other MF detectors.

I see no price yet either. I suspect $1300 USD street, with the Deus getting lowered to $900 USD street.
Didn't expect a color display, that would have been truly shocking. Otherwise, looks pretty good. I like the 20m waterproof.

Price?
I can't find any info on price yet.

Maybe it's like Rolls Royce. If you have to ask the price, you can't afford it.

Nice video... showing almost nothing.
Submersible... 20 meters... means nothing to me, i don't dive nor i am close to any large water.
Nice "Predator vs Terminator" music!
So dramatic.
Ok.
I guess we will not know much more than that any sooner.
Unless someone of us buy it and do the complete testing and overview.
Who will be the one to pull a leg first?
Carl is it you the one?

Ok, alright, i like it at the first view.
I am bit disappointed in one thing though; i expected colors on LCD!
Not the same monochromatic one!?

Multi frequency machine will have major advantage in more accurate target classification.
As well as more adaptive to soil conditions.
More depth? Tough. Yes there will be some improvements but not so significant.
So we can expect important improvements mostly in target classification.
What's else better at new machine?
Enclosure is first that is obvious. More rigid and waterproof.
Probably a battery with longer life.
Also probably more jingle&bells. In a form of this and that...
...
As for the depths; i still haven't seen anything deeper than Garrett GTI2500 and Fisher CZ5; if we speak only about VLF I/B detectors.
And if we speak only about raw depths.
Unfortunately; raw depth doesn't make the machine universally good.
I recall at the time; CZ5 was most accurate machine on the market to distinguish horse shoe, the most undesired target.
It was able to do that directly because of the "multi frequency" approach, they tried to achieve at the time.
And GTI2500 was unbelievable deep in AM mode. Unbeaten until today.
...
So, hopefully new Deus 2 will be able to tell the difference between horse shoe and good targets.
What i would really like to see at the machine is thick aluminum and lead separation from good targets.
I don't mind the depths that much.
I am having troubles mostly with thick aluminum and lead trash in soil.

Anybody restless as i am?
I already know the specs, more or less, too many rumors around it, so it is not hard to anticipate.
I also saw a new enclosure of the remote.
What i don't know yet is the price.
Price will be the most deciding factor in my case (and huge majority others).
I like to make wild assumptions about this.
If the price is too high; most probably i will never see it alive, my modest budget will not allow it.
If the price is medium; most probably i will see it alive but not as my own detector.
If the price is affordable (impossible case); most probably i will see it alive and as my own detector; late in next summer.
This is why i still haven't see in alive any Minelab newer than Explorer. They gone wild with the prices and here in this area nobody buying that.
Sites are totally exhausted. Nothing to find anymore. So, counting; that it will be the investment that will pay back in time: is not serious thinking and planning.
So who will buy it? Only a few with a money.
Another indirect indicator to prove this; here in this area we have 90% of Bulgarian and Turkish detectors in use, in last several years.
Why? Those perform just good enough for the money. Along with fact that finds are so rare last years.
Taking into account progressive covid situation and what came along with it; i think the situation in MD world will change, this is exactly the point of no return.
Our hobby will change. Things will never be the same.
9 years ago i saw pretty clearly the XP Deus situation and its bright future.
Today, 9 years later... i am sorry i can't say the same for the newcomer on market.
Don't get me wrong; i would really be happy to be wrong about this.
Whoever gets it any sooner; congratulations! And be fair to inform us here about it.

I’m curios but not interested in buying one. For sure it will be something great but the performance will be similar to orher detectors. Unfortunately time is problem for me now and detecting days are less... the only thing that will get my attention is one machine that will go more deeper and one small coil that will do good job in iron infested.
