Both are excellent machines at similar prices and the comparison depends on your primary use. The Minelab Manticore leads in 2D iron-site discrimination - the definitive advantage on the densest iron relic ground. The XP DEUS II leads in wireless audio quality, 65-foot waterproofing for dive detecting, and ergonomics as a fully cable-free system. Most hunters who choose the Manticore primarily hunt iron-heavy relic sites. Most who choose the DEUS II prioritize wireless performance, beach and relic versatility, or dive capability. See both: Manticore and DEUS II.
