very good product quality

very good product quality, it's very fast, I can say faster than snap-on, only some brands still lack the best, but the one thing the fullest is really a good choice in my opinion if you don't work with European machines.

Pros
  • Automatic detection of most CAN vehicles in less than 10 seconds
Cons
  • Compatibility

When updates come out, you can lose.

Pros
  • 30 year OEM coverage for Domestic, Asian and European vehicles
Cons
  • Quality

Connection issues are best in Tools & Hardware

This product was very expensive so I hoped it was worth the money but the instructions are extremely useless and the instruction manual in is in a different language, so no help is provided on how to use this product. When it arrived it was just in a black suitcase in a box with no protection. The product didn't connect to my machine, I just got an error message repeatedly.

Pros
  • Built in repair information with over 30 million experience based repair solutions
Cons
  • I don't remember

My Solus Ultra is upgradable, and instead of paying for the latest 16.2 update, I decided to give Encore a try since it's only a few hundred more than a snap-on software update (I didn't get my Encore from Revain bought to shop around for these devices). for about $1,300 or less!) and my Snap On guy is gone. Based on the reviews I read, I was expecting a mediocre device. It's not relevant. Depending on what vehicle you're in, connection…

Pros
  • Lifetime hardware warranty with active diagnostics subscription
Cons
  • Not the best
