Found it on Youtube. Hard to tell if that connector is bigger than the old style or not.

Caution: I have no idea who posted this or where these phone numbers go to or if that logo is a legit business, it appears to be a legit Minelab produced video which someone has overlayed their personal information onto.

Screen shots:

It looks like that unboxind video ... that the GPX 6000 will have low weight.

I was looking up data ..  the weight of the detector is 4.6 lbs / 2.1 Kilogram...

My understanding is the USA marketing meeting with Minelab is next week and it'll still be a month before 6000's go on sale here. Take with as many grains of salt as necessary...

Also: the knob literally goes to "11". Nigel Tufnel approves. 😄

This appears to be a machine designed directly for the African/Middle East markets. Easy to use and learn without English menus, the manual appears to be tiny, and basically a turn on and go machine? Like the GM, I assume it will have uses here though too.

Being in the USA market I’m ok with easy to use and learn, tiny, and turn on and go machine 😀
 

My question is how water resistant it is, where I detect I have the potential for deep large nuggets, but it rains and I’ll be going through all grass and brush that could be water logged. The last thing I want to do is buy a top end detector and have it fried due to a downpour.
