It is acceptable to say that Eotech is one of the most well-known and respected optic manufacturers in the world. Known for their Holographic Weapon Sights (HWS), Eotech optics have been used worldwide and have graced the service rifles of many nations.
For 2026, Eotech is working tirelessly to update its product catalog to introduce new models to the market. These models incorporate the latest trends and technologies available. Those models include the EXPS3 HD and the EFLX-CE.
EXPS3 HD Specs
The new EXPS3 HD features an all-aluminum housing, rather than just the all-aluminum hood on previous models. This heavy-duty model allows EOTECH to eliminate the aluminum hood, providing users with an improved field of view and better situational awareness, which gives the new HD a very distinctive look.

- Model(s): EXPS3 HD
- Magnification: 1x
- Dot Size: 68 MOA speed ring with a 1 MOA dot
- Dot Color: Red

- Eye Relief: Unlimited
- Adjustment: .5 MOA
- Night Vision Compatible: Yes
- Length: 3.54”
- Height: 2.72”
- Weight: 11.6 oz.
- Battery Type: CR123

- MSRP: $999
EXPS3 HD FEATURES
For the first time, EOTECH replaces the familiar rubberized buttons of their HWS with a rotary dial, offering seven daylight settings, four night-vision levels, an OFF position, and an Auto-Brightness mode that senses the room and adjusts automatically. The same dial also unlocks Shake-Awake technology, featuring a programmable sleep mode set to 10 minutes, 1 hour, 12 hours, or completely disabled—functioning across daylight, NV, and auto-brightness modes to conserve battery life while waking instantly with even the slightest movement.
It still weighs 11.2 oz, operates on a single CR123 lithium battery, and includes an integrated, locking, adjustable quick-detach base. The classic 68MOA ring and 1MOA aiming dot remain, along with waterproof, fogproof durability and functionality even with a compromised window. Designed for close to medium-distance engagements, the Heavy Duty EXPS3 HD shows that the tough just got tougher.
EFLX-CE SPECS
The EFLX line of pistol red dots was Eotech’s entry into the compact pistol dot market. The latest is an enclosed version with a square viewing window. This design has become increasingly popular, especially with duty and concealed carry use.
The standard specs are as follows:
- Model(s): EFLX-CE
- Magnification: 1x
- Footprint: DeltaPoint Pro, RMS-c
- Dot Size: 3 MOA dot, 42 MOA ring, or ring/dot combination
- Dot Color: Red

ELFX-CE FEATURES
Built with a rugged 7075 aluminum housing, it features a square viewing window and the durability professionals demand, including a built-in rear iron sight for critical moments. The top features large, recessed rubberized buttons that are easy to operate with either hand, offering eight brightness levels from ultra-bright to night vision.
Inside, upgraded electronics offer selectable reticles—a 3 MOA dot, a 42 MOA circle, or both combined. Shake-Awake technology works with a programmable sleep mode set for 10 minutes, 1 hour, 12 hours, or off, allowing a single 2032 battery to last about 25,000 hours. Compatible with Delta Point Pro and RMSc footprints, and a side-access battery compartment.
ZOOMING OUT
The EXPS3 HD and EFLX-CE are welcome additions to the Eotech product lineup. They build on the success of previous models while incorporating the latest technology and features.
