XP Performance. Now for Everyone.
XP Metal Detectors have spent decades refining wireless detection. The Deus II represents the pinnacle — but not everyone wants or needs that level of complexity.
The XP ICON strips things back without compromising performance. It’s lightweight, intuitive, and powerful where it matters most — in the ground.
FMF® Multi-Frequency
Simultaneous multi-frequency means better stability in mineralised soil, improved target ID on wet sand, and the ability to detect both high and low conductivity targets in a single sweep.
Designed for Real Detecting
- Field / Park: Mixed soils and pasture
- Beach: Wet sand and saltwater stability
- All Terrain: A balanced general-purpose mode
Audio That Tells a Story
Choose from PWM or Square audio, with 2, 3, 5 or Full Tones. Whether you want clear signals or rich tonal nuance, the ICON adapts to your style.
Wireless Without Delay
XP’s ultra-fast wireless system (~4ms latency) connects coil, remote and headphones instantly — no pairing required.
Built for Water
Fully waterproof to 5 metres, the ICON is just as comfortable on the beach or riverbank as it is in the field.
The XP Ecosystem
The ICON is compatible with Deus II FMF coils and the MI-6 pinpointer, meaning your setup can grow with you over time.
