I had an incident early in my career where a cheap meter exploded when used on 800V DC (not by me !) that colored my opinion in favor of proven-safe, durable Fluke meters. I bought a Fluke 87-V to reward myself for passing the PE exam.
But a co-worker showed me a meter yesterday that blew my mind.

At first, I figured that a Bluetooth connection to a smartphone was just a silly gadget. But then he started demonstrating it.
The smartphone can be a datalogger, grabbing minimum or maximum or average or trend values from the meter. It can e-mail them or create an HTML or PDF report or save them as a CSV file or an SQLite import file.
The smartphone can call out the meter values audibly. Think about the last time you had to perch your meter precariously so you could see the display while you touched the probes to a circuit. Or the last time you had to go fetch a helper to read the display while you placed the probes.
It even geotags your saved measurements. Can't remember exactly which substation you were at when you created that trend ? No problem, it'll tell you precisely where it was.
It doesn't have to be connected to a smartphone; they've used it with Android-powered watches or wearables. My colleague was using an iPod touch. It's still got its own display and onboard storage.
Standard 1000V Cat III probes/ 600V Cat IV.
