Chinese Detector Mash Up

[phrunt]

The Chinese manufacturers are not only doing clones they're doing mash ups combining features of one model in the look of another.

This one is pretty interesting, it looks like a GPZ, combined with a CTX 3030, combined with a normal VLF for functionality and coil design, and includes a full colour touch screen.  I like the GPX 4500/5000 arm cuff on a GPZ body. 🙂

 

It truly is a shame they don't use their talents to make their own detectors, you would think with the clones they can pop out and the skills that they must have to do them they could sit down and build a detector of their own and start a genuine manufacturing company for detectors rather than using other companies ideas.

One thing they did do right that Minelab could learn from is getting rid of the weak CTX coil ears and using the GPZ 7000 coil mounting ears on a CTX shaft.

Chinese talents??? That might be a little overreach. Most everything coming out of China is inferior.

And a Garrett coil.

This thing sells for $850 on Ali Express, can't imagine there are too many people willing to pay that much for very questionable performance.

China is capable of manufacturing extremely cheap and low quality products as well as products made to the absolute highest standards possible on this planet. You get what you pay for, just like anywhere else.

Yea if the Chinese counterfeiters make fake GPX 6000 shafts I’m buying one to replace my genuine one, it will likely be better quality 😁

请大家转告身边朋友不去购买，谨防上当受骗，浪费金钱。
