I’ve mostly used benchtop oscilloscopes available in my college lab, but now I’m looking to buy a portable oscilloscope that I can easily carry around for on-site testing and general electronics work. Portability is important to me, but I don’t want to compromise too much on performance or usability.
Can anyone recommend a good portable oscilloscope—either handheld or tablet-style—that offers a decent balance of features, screen quality, and reliability? I’d prefer something with at least 2 channels, good battery life, and support for basic measurements like voltage, frequency, and waveform capture. Budget is flexible, but I’d like to hear about both affordable and mid-range options.
Would love to know what models you’ve used, what you liked or didn’t like, and any tips for choosing the right one.

I used to use the Hantek 2D72 during on-site visits — handy little device. It’s got basic scope functions, a multimeter, and even a signal generator. Not the fastest thing out there, but it handled general debugging and signal tracing just fine. Also looked at the FNIRSI-1013D — decent screen, portable, works well for checking low- to mid-frequency signals. If you need something really compact and just for quick checks, the DSO Nano is another option worth a look.
