version F or V2 or ? max frequency ?

and what is the name of the version with the large lcd display ?
Since you don't say why you want one, or what you would use it for, here's my thoughts.

If you are going to use it outdoors, get the NanoVNA-F. (There is just 'one' to choose from.)
Frequency? Only you know that. (for example, I have no need or use for GHz tests.)
TWO versions have the large display, -H4 and -F.
My "OPINION" is - - get the NanoVNA-F, from BH5HNU's dealer Deepelec or from a U.S. ham store.

I have an early, cheap clone 2.8 inch, with no shielding, and a decent -F clone. I like and use them both, but the -F is useful outdoors, where the antennas are. And can store s1p files, although I don't need that (yet).

You did not mention price in your question, so the best thing to do is buy one of every model. Then tell us which is best! (And send me the leftovers.)

No matter which model you order, be SURE to also get connector adapters (both male and female) for every kind of RF connector you have. And patch cables. I have had to order adapters for UHF, BNC, F and MCX. And a binding posts adapter like the Pomona 1296 can be very useful.

ANY NanoVNA is better than none. It's hard to go wrong.
