Great customer service amazing device
There's 2 of them. I picked this product because of his price and its features. I needed a good bidirectional scan tool right, and upon reviewing all the other scandal is on the market, this one seemed like the best Bang for my buck. I love the fact that you can buy an inspection camera that hooks up with it or a battery tester, and you can also make Reports off of this device, if you were working into a shop or like I use it for to provide documentation, is showing that there was an issue that and now it is fixed to either myself or my brother, who I have checked all 4 of our vehicles with and we own 4 different. makes really helped with troubleshooting, whenever we couldn't figure out what was going on with his Van.And the customer service is top, notch i wasn't as well

Totally worth it!
I've been using the Autel MK808BT for several months now, and it has quickly become one of the most valuable tools in my garage. I've used it on both my BMW X5 and Silverado 1500 for a range of tasks β from reading and clearing engine and transmission codes, to checking live data streams, and even performing service resets and component tests. The wireless Bluetooth VCI makes it incredibly convenient to move around the vehicle without being tethered.One of the biggest wins was using it to troubleshoot HVAC and TPMS systems β it gave me insight I couldn't have gotten otherwise without a shop-level tool. The user interface is intuitive, updates are frequent, and it covers a wide range of makes and models. The build quality and touchscreen responsiveness are solid, and the battery life has never been a problem during diagnostics.If you're serious about maintaining or repairing your own vehicles, this tool pays for itself quickly. Itβs saved me trips to the mechanic and helped me diagnose issues with confidence. Highly recommend!

Good DIY scanner
A good DIY scanner. Does many functions as the more expensive tablets. It has more foreign vehicles that I'll never use and has all the top US vehicles. I used it on a friend's car she'd just bought and no surprise to discover the dealer erased the codes just long enough to sell the car. It found 37 codes when her check engine light came on. It was a little longer to discover what actually turned on the $$light. The biggest problem was the purge valve fault. Worked great with some research and reading live data.

So far....
So this unit is a bit pricey, and cannot address the tech support as of yet. The size is what you would expect with this type of unit, alike a tablet. The quality seems to be very well so far. The performance and appearance are dual in very good. The features is what you are looking for.On my 2016 Hyundai Equus, you can find a lot of machines lacking. This unit so far provided an error and helped troubleshoot a problem. It did not give a specific error code. It only gave an error. We are guessing and seeing if this replacement item is it.Again, no code was given. This is important because I don't have a definite answer of problem. A bit disappointing for the price, but i hear this is an affordable price.

Now I have second thoughts.... (UPDATED)
I own and maintain two Volvos, a 2014 XC70 and a 2019 V90 R Design. I purchased this MK808BT in January of 2020 thinking that I would be able to utilize the scanner past the first year of updates without a problem (as advertised). As far as actually using this scanner I have a few misgivings which I'll list below with the MAJOR problem (and reason for leaving this review) of the fact that my scanner would no longer download the diagnostic files without an error. This scanner is INTERNET BASED in that EVERY time you run through the diagnostic procedures of a vehicle the unit MUST download the diagnostic data. This is all well and good and I have resigned myself to this slow (the tablet is Android 4.4 based) process. There are a few problems with this requirement in that you must have an internet connection, although I would imagine you could tether the device to a cell phone, to be able to utilize the scanner. Autel must have changed the format of the diagnostics files which need to be downloaded because as of last week my unit would NOT download without an error. That's it, no file no diagnostics. I searched the internet for a remedy with no luck. I was FORCED to either replace my scanner which was no longer functional to me OR try to upgrade my software subscription. Long story short I was forced to spend the $150 software upgrade fee to continue to use this scanner even though Autel states that you can CONTINUE to use the scanner past the software subscription expiration albeit without the software changes.My other major gripe is that the MK808BT will not automatically scan the VIN for my V90 and set the diagnostics parameters. I must MANUALLY enter the market (North American), year, model and drivetrain information EVERY time I wish to scan. This is the case even after "UPGRADING" the Volvo diagnostics to current configuration. To be fair, the MK808BT does not exhibit this problem with my XC70.All in all the unit is fairly easy to operate with fairly accurate diagnostics capabilities. Had I known that the unit is INTERNET BASED I would have either not purchased the unit or sought a scanner that isn't. Autel DOES offer units that are NOT dependent they are, however, considerably more expensive.UPDATE: After updating my subscription and DOWNLOADING every update my unit is functioning once more. As a side note it took in excess of FOUR HOURS to back up the newly downloaded data to a thumb drive directly plugged into the MK808BT. It's HIGHLY RECCOMENDED that you back up every file in the "Scan" folder located in system memory (internal SD drive). Supposedly I could have restored these files from a backup which would have eliminated my having to renew my subscription. Oh well, at least I have the latest data files.UPDATE #2:Autel Customer Service reached out to me after reading my review. After I explained the situation about the necessity to renew my software to be able to continue the use of my scanner we agreed that this should not have happened. As a result Autel graciously REFUNDED my renewal fees. Thank you Autel!I can't stress enough the necessity of BACKING UP the "SCAN" folder located on the system's internal SD drive. My predicament would not have happened had I completed the backup process. It would have been a simple task of restoring the backup to the original "SCAN" folder.Kudos to Autel for supporting its' customers in such a manner.

Great product
I am impressed so far with the quality of this product. I had a basic OBDII scanner before and this one has a lot more features and capabilities! It is accurate and works very well. The connectivity and battery life are also great.
