Ultimate metal detector comparison guide - 12 machine bake off
Choosing between metal detectors becomes difficult surprisingly quickly. Specifications tell you part of the story, but they don't always explain what the differences actually mean once you're out detecting.
XP Deus I Minelab Equinox 900 Nokta Simplex Ultra
We've researched 12 popular detectors from Minelab, Nokta and XP, bringing together manufacturer specifications, independent reviews and available field evidence. From that research we've created a series of comparison guides looking at the machines from different angles.
Some compare detectors at similar prices, others concentrate on individual manufacturers, and several look at practical questions such as weight, waterproofing, frequency technology and beach detecting.
The aim of our metal detector comparison guide throughout is the same: explain the differences without turning specifications into unsupported performance claims or assuming that spending more automatically gives you a better detector.
