Equinox 1.75 update

I was wondering what problems the 1.75 update corrected?

I know a lot of Nox whizzes here have used both versions, did the update fix the issues it was supposed to? Anybody go back to the original V1.50? And if so, why?

Yes, it improved the issues it addressed.

Yes, some people went back to the original.
They claimed several different reasons that most people (including me) never saw .... such as depth difference, iron ID and pinpoint 'spot' being off.

I personally think the pinpointing being off is the natural effect that occurs (with all detectors) when pinpointing coins (truly) on edge.
If you're not used to finding coins on edge, they can sometimes be tricky to pinpoint.

I never saw any depth differences in my own scientific testing.
Iron ID is very, very ground moisture dependent, and hard to quantify.
(And "I don't know for sure, but it just seems like..." isn't a good enough reason for me to switch back.)

IMHO, the 1.75 update works well, and helps a lot.
Based on my experience, I'll probably install the latest/newer update the hour it comes out.

Im still on here original firmware, no issues here seems ok to me.

Strictly on iPhone and iPad now, so its impossible to update my Deus and Equniox.

Still, very pleased with these original firmware.
