X431 PRO3S+ V5.0,2026 Upgrade All-in-One Bidirectional Scan Tool,HD Trucks Scan,Topology Map,ECU Code,55+ Service,Full System,CANFD&DOIP,DBSCar VII VCI 2-Year Update

For the last two years, I have been extensively using a Launch X431 V Pro. It has worked flawlessly across car brands and models. I work mostly on BMW, which has some of the most complicated electronics. The Launch software has never failed me, including working on BMW diesel vehicles. Over the past two years I’ve also received excellent support from the vendor, Ucar Tech, through both their Facebook Group for customers, as well as individual one-on-one support. So when I was ready to upgrade my hardware, I was interested in sticking with Launch and Ucar Tech's support. With help from Ucar Tech, I selected the new 2021 V2.0 Launch X431 PRO3S+. Arrived in 2 days. Hardware was a huge leap forward from my prior X431 V Pro. In connecting and performing diagnostics, I would say the PRO3S+ is easily twice as fast as my prior model. The new Launch is built on the Lenovo TAB M10 TB-X605FC - a 10-inch touch screen, Android 9, and 1.8 GHz octo-core CPU account for the improved speed, visibility and useability. The PRO3S+ includes HAPTIC feedback, which is a great feature for operating the tool with tactile positive input feedback. The upgrade from the V Pro also adds 5 GHz WiFi speeds - updates easily took ½ to ⅓ the time for the prior model. The 7,000 Mah battery goes all day in the garage, without issue, in spite of increased screen size and processing speed. There are a variety of new capabilities with the PRO3S+ (the feature set is impressive for a 3rd party product working on native brands). I’ve used the bi-directional capabilities, brake service, oil service, and several others. Simply at this price point, this really becomes the cheapest tool in the toolbox when I consider its utility against the cost. There is no doubt in my mind that the upgrade was worth the cost. For anyone that uses their Launch tool with any frequency, it is a no brainer. For potential new Launch users, I can say that several years ago several professional mechanic friends recommended I look at the Launch as my multi-model car diagnostic tool. I am glad I took their advise!

Update: 3/25/2022: I want to let everyone know that the scanner is holding up well. This scanner is perfect for diy and also a shop. The issue with the 2-year update I mentioned in my earlier review has been fixed by the vendor and I am very happy with it. What makes this company a big success is its customer service. Imagine a vendor following up with you how the product is doing after almost 1 year of purchase? This just makes me feel even more confident that I am in good hands. I cannot say this to ANY of the scanners I’ve purchased in the past, including the branded scanners that costs 3x or 5x more. We all look for the AFTER- PURCHASE support and this company never fails. If you are on the fence and concerned about the functionality and price, here is my honest opinion. It’s worth every penny! You are buying a quality scanner with a customer service that is over the top. Your other option is to buy a slightly cheaper scanner and you’re on your own without after-purchase support from the vendor. NO I AM NOT PAID TO WRITE THIS REVIEW. I just want to help out by giving you my personal experience with the scanner and customer support. Good luck! Update: 7/2/2021: I contacted Launch Tech USA and was informed by Jeff B (Product Support Representative), “unfortunately the X431 Pro3s+ is not manufactured for the North American market and as such Launch Tech USA does not sell or support it. If you need a software update, repair or if you need info about the tool we would not be able to help you, you would have to contact whoever sold it to you. In addition, the tool will never work well on US Spec vehicles... we do not sell direct, or online via eBay or Amazon.” The reason why I contacted Launch Tech USA is the product should have come with 2 years of free update. When I checked the subscription under my account, the update expires in exactly 1 year from the time of activation. Overall, I paid around $1000 and this is a material information that I can’t ignore. I don’t want to deal with any of these issue so it’s going back. ORIGINAL REVIEW: This is not your average scanner, you get what you pay for and much more. This is shop ready and a must have for diyers. I still have to navigate the system but compared to the scanners I’ve owned this Launch x431 pro3s+ v2.0 is a winner! Overall it’s well made, sturdy and built to last. I also like the large screen. I haven’t dealt with the customer service yet, so that’s for future review.

Très bon produit facile à utiliser je regrette simplement de ne pas commander le xprog 3 en supplément

Good ,thank you

This is like a scam. It is costly for nothing. Even after buying online new software like the hyundai plus and Hyundai Korea, i cannot access ECM program, cannot write the VIN after replacing the ECM. Online code is not working. The ECU Coding even when combined with Xprog 3 is not working fine. Online Technical is not almost available Please stop selling or stop buying this tool.

Launch Diagnostic Scanner: Exceptional Value and Comprehensive Coverage After several months of daily use across a variety of cars and vans, this diagnostic unit has proven to be an outstanding investment and fantastic value for money. Functionality and Vehicle Coverage The scanner offers comprehensive diagnostic coverage, seamlessly handling everything from basic code reads to more advanced functions like viewing live data streams and graphical displays. Crucially, it has successfully connected to and diagnosed every vehicle I have worked on to date. Its capabilities cover all aspects of modern diagnostics, with the exception of specialized oscilloscope functions. Performance and Speed The unit features a quick start-up time and is exceptionally fast when reading data from modern vehicle ECUs. While I've noted a slight slowness on older vehicles, this is generally consistent with the slower communication speeds of older ECUs and is not a fault of the tool itself. Regular software updates are provided, ensuring the tool remains current with new vehicles and diagnostic protocols. Value and Professional Comparison For a professional environment, this scanner offers a significant financial advantage. I find myself regularly preferring this unit over my Snap-on scanner, primarily due to its considerably lower purchase price and the much more affordable ongoing update fees. Connectivity Note It is worth noting that the scanner occasionally requires an internet connection when initially connecting to some vehicles or when performing software updates. This is easily managed by using a mobile hotspot or available Wi-Fi and has not been an operational obstacle. Verdict This Launch scanner is a must-have tool for any professional technician or serious DIY enthusiast. It delivers high-end functionality and reliability at a fraction of the cost of its premium competitors.
