I review the LAUNCH X431 CRP919E OBDII bidirectional scan tool that was recently released to compete directly with the XTOOL D7, and the AUTEL 808 series of automotive scanners. This tool features bidirectional control consisting of resets, actuation tests and special functions. You can view all live data PIDS from all modules in the vehicle in either text form, or graph form. This tool with also record selected live data PIDS and it will allow for playback at up to 4X speed. It is also compatible with the newer protocols of CAN FD and DoIP. The tool physically reminds me of the many Snap-on scanners because of its red body with black trim around the edges and especially its physical buttons. It's VERY Snap on ish... The mechanical buttons are really nice for when your fingers are covered in grease and the screen won't respond to their touch. It also has an "automatically connect" feature that can be toggles on/off in the setting menu. This features makes the tool automatically auto-vin the vehicle and intimately start a full system scan when the data cable is connected to a vehicle. All this happens by simply plugging in the data cable to the DLC port in the vehicle. This is the only tablet style of scan tool that I have reviewed on my YouTube channel to have physical buttons, and the "auto connect" option. Those are two features that no other scanners have.... at least that I know of anyway. The LAUNCH brand of scan tool is a favorite among professional mechanics and hobbyists. If you read through any tool forums, subreddits, or any other automotive related social media sites then you will see (read) that LAUNCH is a very well like brand all over the internet. If you’re in the market for this level of scan tool, then take a close look at this new LAUNCH model….. it might just be what you’re looking for.

* I was told the manufacturer warranty is indeed 5 years, which is pretty good considering most scan tools only come with a 2 year warranty.
*I was told the annual update fee is $120 after 24 months (2 years)
