Interesting to see the newer model does not have part designators on the silk screen and it mentions DT833 with a March 2012 datecode. The most striking differences are the soldered fuse and the absence of a trimmer on the newer model. Picture 6 shows the diferences on the grip of the back cover. Pictures 3 (front fascia comparison), 4 and 5 (rotary dial detail of the newer and older models respectively) show the front fascia does not change much but scratches can be seen everywhere on the newer model. The two first pictures show how the packages changed, and in the back one can see the datecode between the two (45th and 1st weeks of 2014). In all pictures the newer model is on the left the older on the right. I just got another free DT830 DMM from Harbor Freight and compared to one that I had got before with another purchase, and to my dismay the quality eroded even more.
