The DEUS with X35 coil is the proven predecessor platform – and still in high demand. For detectorists who appreciate the DEUS ecosystem but do not need FMF multi-frequency or are looking for a cheaper entry package, the DEUS X35 is a mature and durable choice. Demand shows that many buyers already know the detector from the community and deliberately trust this system.

The Manticore is Minelab's flagship – and the most discussed high-end detector in our advice sessions. Customers weighing up the DEUS II and Manticore focus on the 2D target analysis and the Manticore's unique signal display. Anyone searching deep in mineralised ground and demanding the highest target separation ends up with this detector.

The X-Terra Pro is the detector we most often recommend for getting started – and our customers then buy it too. Easy operation, robust build and selectable PRO-SWITCH single frequencies at an accessible price make it the ideal first step for ambitious beginners.

The Equinox 900 is particularly often requested from us by detectorists who regularly search on the beach or in difficult ground conditions. The revised user interface compared with the 800 and the improved depth performance have earned it a loyal customer base.

The Triple Score Pro is Nokta's answer to the demand for genuine simultaneous multi-frequency at a fair price. In our advice sessions, it is chosen above all by beginners who do not want to compromise on technology but have a limited budget. Fully waterproof and ready to use straight away.
