Great for the price.
Got it for about $50 on sale and no regrets here. It’s not the most intuitive to use, but most scanners aren’t. Updating the firmware was a bit cumbersome since you have to use a PC to download the file. But for simple OBD code reading and clearing it works well. Not intended to read advanced DTCs like ABS or SRA codes but will read any check engine code. Saves you a trip to the auto parts store and having to deal with the limited capabilities.

Works as intended
Works as advertised, codes are easy to understand, clear backlit screen. Should be compatible with most models, was able to clear a code from my dashboard with no issue.

Obd2 scanner
My first scanner, with that being said it is easy to use. Accurate with a good display, easy to connect, functions as it should. All at a good price. Instructions are useless. So far so good.

Well but affordable with good features and great customer support
Great value and quality built (so far)Manual that is included is small and vague and not very useful but I went online and you can download and print if you want a very good user manual that explains operations much clearer and there you can check and update your software version if needed but this one already had the updated versionI like the rubberized cover nice and compact and the display is okay but could be a little biggerThere is a bit of a learning curve but the online downloadable website manual helped tremendouslyI emailed customer service with a question and received a reply in under 24 hours that is impressiveI’ve never used one of these before but right now it seems to be a very good product and I’d recommend it

does what is says it will do, with live data and graphing, died in 2 weeks
ProsOriginally 5 stars, until it stopped workingThis is accurate described by its advertising. OBD2 scanner for codes, has a library of codes to show what it is, resets MIL, shows live data, shows freeze frame data, does a basic battery check. Ignore the other ‘features’ because its current functions are all part of basic OBD Generic codes that is mandatory for US car emissions. The only different item is the battery test.Large clear bright color screen with tight pixels, larger buttons, fast response, instant boot is a reason to select this over the lower models of Ancel, which are identical functionally, but with older LCD screen designs … battery test is nice to have to not necessaryI compared the values of live data vs an Innova 5610 and the data is nearly identical .. e.g. rpm, fuel trims, 02S etc., as a check on the reading accuracy, as well as bat voltage readings against my multimeter and rpm vs tach of my carwell built and packagedConscannot print or save data despite saying on ads and menusvery obtuse desktop softwareworked very well, but froze and died after 2 weeks of heavy use, my backup unit still works well for same periodCannot save data once disconnected from carbuttons are not lit, so hard to see if working in car and darkWhile YMMV on durability
