Taking this one step further with literally putting your cellphone on a stick has anyone come across this Ukrainian start up, Air Metal Detectors?

Yes.  See this thread and this thread, and more recently this thread.

It's all water... Phone, it doesn't matter. Even if the information output interface is implanted in the brain... 
The signal itself is important. Shape and once again the shape of the signal.  How the device handles harmonics. The math of signal processing.
Some manufacturers have to pay the bills ... 
They do it at the expense of those who do not know what the signal looks like. Manufacturers screw new wrappers to old, like mammoth, signal processing technologies. Twisting endless crutches.  For one purpose.... wait until they come up with something that will save them. Or until they retire.  See Root.... With respect.

I just started this hobby and don’t have anywhere near the experience of many of the contributors on here but agree that some simple tweaks could make a big difference in ergonomics for the end user. Having the equinox 600 I immediately noticed the screen is in a neutral position to accommodate a left or right handed swing but seems like it should be able to be tilted so it creates a direct viewing angle same with the handle in general a ball and socket would allow for a little adjustment to find the sweet spot. And as for the counterweight it seems like it would be something that would be included and you add the weight you need. But for a beginner this seems like a pretty awesome machine otherwise.
