This is gonna give the entry-level scanners like the otofix d1 lite, launch crp919 family, xtool d7/d8 family a run for its money! Competition is always a win win for the customers.

@RANDOMFIX thanks for the discount code, just ordered mine today. Gonna ditch my launch x431 pros v+ 5.0 elite on fb market place as I have 1 year left before the subscription ends and the renewal price for it cost as much as this 689bt.

My experience with scan tools tells me that you will llijely want a new and better scan tool after 3 years. Lifetime updates equates to 3 years which is a common update plan.
@RANDOMFIX6 күн бұрын
You could be right but for home diy or professional use I would think it’s about 6 years and if 6 years later the tool is still supported I would say this a good tool. I don’t know if 6 years later the support will still be there but at least it will active and operational even if it running on order data.

Guessing that if even a simple borescope doesn't work (except for their own), then no doubt you'd have to use their own oscilloscope as well? Also, does it show network mapping/topology? Didn't see it anywhere in the vid.

No topology and you will have to buy their borescope.

@DrFiero the Boroscope is an east work around as you can buy a usb c scope for $20 and the topology personally is just a visual reference that looks cool but has no really value.I think what they have done with the lifetime fees is great.
@j.si.8330Ай бұрын
How many years manufacturer thinks their product should last? 2-3 years, maybe more? That will be that lifetime. Like in drill bits and threading taps, for example, when it breaks, lifetime warranty is over. You just dont get new for free.. Lifetime warranty, lifetime updates etc., imo is quite tricky subject..
@RANDOMFIXАй бұрын
You have very good points! Yes, I don’t expect lifetime as the tool and batteries in the units need to work that long as well. That’s why I recommend the wired version as it charges when it use. It will be interesting to see how the scan tool market changes and adapts in the coming years.

You can adjust the mileage after a repair but each scan tool including Autel has its limits, the best scan tool for mileage adjustment is Xtool but they too have the limitations kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3yxoWWYe76WjKssi=-3_T1_OfcXep1Wv_
