My English is not good enough therefore sorry for this bad English. But I am trying to use English with translate and my own knowlegde.

Good day, I am an Electrical and Electronics Engineering student. I will be studying in the 4th grade next semester. I currently have a unit ut61c multimeter. I bought it second hand, but it did the job quite well, and even though there are some problems, I still continue to use it actively. Currently an oscilloscope is needed to observe the signal. I turned from large table oscilloscopes to preferred handheld oscilloscopes. Because I live in a dormitory and I don't have the space to carry or place an oscilloscope along with the many materials I have. I will use the oscilloscope mostly to use some power electronic elements (input and output graphics), to be created and operated with microcontrollers, and to repair some electronic circuits. As for the multimeter part, I mostly measure the small voltages, I might measure 220c Ac max.

If you have information about this product, I would be happy if you could help me. This product can be used as both an oscilloscope and a multimeter. For this reason, I will sell my current unit ut61c multimeter and add a little money to my budget for the new product I will buy.

I will buy Owon hds242 from banggood.

I was not in a position to buy the product directly, so I had the opportunity to do a lot of research until I saved up money, but I was still undecided. Since I was buying from abroad, I didn't want to make the wrong purchase, so I'm writing here. If anyone has information or can guide me and recommend another oscilloscope, I would like to thank you very much in advance. I wish you a good day again.

Hello,

I have that model. It's not bad, and considering the cost it is quite good. I've used it for a number of tests already.
Because it is so low cost it has limited math functions, like it does not have FFT analysis for example.
The 'meter' mode is of course different than the 'scope' mode, and that's not bad either. I like the resolution and the number of digits which you do not find too often. For example, if you are measuring voltage around 12 volts (like in a car) you would measure something like "12.437v" in the 'meter' mode while with a 3 and a half digit meter you'd only get "12.44v". That gives you an extra digit until you reach 19.999v, after that it overflows and switches to "20.00v"
Oh Ohms, you get an extra digit too. For example if you measure a 1.5 Ohm resistor you might see "1.53 Ohms" rather than the more typical "1.5 Ohms" with the more common meters.

Also because of the low cost, the bandwidth is not what they advertise. It's around 25MHz (as tested), which still isn't that bad for a $100USD priced oscilloscope.
One of the reasons I got it is because it runs on batteries. Li-ion batteries. This means it does not have to plug into the wall in order to use. That meant I can measure anything without worrying about the ground connections, and also for measurements on the automobiles, and it's simpler than a laptop and USB scope combination.
I've also used it to measure the pulse pattern of several IR remote controls using a pin diode with it.
One thing a lot of these scopes have is a 'freeze' frame function so you can keep the waveform on the screen for as long as you want to in order to analyze it. Long ago that feature could have cost you $5000 USD or more.

So it is "ok" but it is a low-cost scope/meter so you cannot expect a really good scope for that price point. That's the way a lot of them are. It's very useable however, but of course it depends on what you intend to do with it.

The bottom line is: what do you intend to use it for. If you only have to work on audio for example, it should work pretty well.
If you tell me what you want to use it for more exactly I can tell you more about how it might work for your applications.
