From The Manufacturer

With Leupold’s high performance DNA engine, the RX-1600i TBR/W retains all of the revolutionary TBR capabilities that Leupold rangefinders are known for, with the addition of wind hold values. Activate True Ballistic Range/Wind and it automatically calculates a wind hold value for a 10 mph wind at a 90 angle to the shooter, then displays that hold in MOA, Mils, or inches/centimeters. The RX-1600i TBR/W with 6x magnification features an OLED display that delivers 3 times greater light transmission than LCD displays for a crystal clear image from dawn to dusk. Pocket-sized and packed with features, Leupold’s new RX-1600i TBR/W makes all other rangefinders dim in comparison.

The eye relief is better than average at 17mm, which is more than sufficient to have a clear field of view for everyone, even if you wear glasses. Leupold also provides a rubber, fold down eye cup so that users who do wear glasses can move it out of their way for easier viewing.
The advanced digital signal of the exclusive DNA does one thing really well, it simply allows for a better image. The image, which is filtered, allows for a better separation between the target and the background and for a more efficient distance calculation.
It is capable of angle compensated readings and has the digitally enhanced accuracy feature which is a change of processor from its predecessors.

While Leupold likes to call it Weatherproof, this rangefinder is not actually Waterproof.
This lack of backlighting significantly reduces power consumption, keeping the display on and the colors able to retain their contrast during use.
The functionalities are quite complex
