The XP Deus II redefines high-end metal detecting in 2025 through its revolutionary fully wireless and ultra-lightweight architecture. Weighing approximately 1.9 pounds, it is arguably the lightest professional-grade detector available, allowing for unparalleled comfort and swing speed during extended detecting sessions without arm fatigue. The complete absence of cables between the coil, remote, and wireless headphones creates a clean, hassle-free user experience. At its core is the Fast Multi-Frequency (FMF) technology, which operates across a broad spectrum (4-45 kHz) simultaneously, delivering exceptional depth, sensitivity to small targets like gold, and superb speed in target-rich or trashy environments.
Its fully waterproof rating, submersible to 66 feet, makes it a top contender for serious beach hunters, divers, and river explorers. The Deus II offers immense customization with over a dozen factory programs and deep adjustment settings for recovery speed, sensitivity, and audio, catering to expert users who wish to fine-tune their hunt. The system's modularity also allows compatibility with specialized coils like those for the XP XTREM Hunter deep-seeking system. While the cost is significant and the array of features requires study to master, the XP Deus II represents the cutting edge for detectorists who prioritize minimal weight, maximum technological integration, and versatile, high-performance detecting in any terrain.
