Minelab X-TERRA PRO Review

Worth it if you want one waterproof detector for park, field, and beach hunting on a mid-range budget; skip it if you already need multi-frequency discrimination.
Pros
- IP68 waterproof to 16 ft, so beach and freshwater hunts aren't off-limits
- PRO-SWITCH frequency switching for depth across different soil types
- Pre-set Park, Field, and Beach modes make it usable right out of the box
- Lightweight 3-piece shaft collapses to about 25 inches for a backpack
Cons
- 30 discrimination segments are fewer than Multi-IQ machines in the line
- Some new owners on forums report a learning curve getting target ID dialed in
- No built-in GPS or app connectivity
