Launch X431 PRO V5.0

Looking for the Launch X431 PROS V5.0 or the X431 V+? The PRO V5.0 is in the same 8-inch class as the PROS V5.0 - Launch's comparison table lists the same screen size and core specifications. The X431 V+ (PRO3 V+ 5.0) is a larger 10.1-inch tablet.

The X431 PRO V5.0 is Launch's professional 8-inch diagnostic tablet, rebuilt on a newer Android platform with a faster processor and a redesigned wireless connector. It covers every electronic module in the vehicle, performs bi-directional active tests, supports ECU coding on a wide list of makes and speaks current CAN FD and DoIP protocols.

Launch's strength has always been coverage per euro. For a workshop that needs to handle whatever drives onto the ramp - European, Asian and American alike - this is one of the most economical routes to genuinely professional capability.

Who we recommend this for

• Independent workshops - full diagnostic capability across a broad make list without a flagship budget.
• Mobile diagnostic technicians - wireless connector, compact tablet, quick to set up on site.
• Garages upgrading from a CRP-series unit - this adds coding depth and newer protocol support.

Probably not the right tool if…

You service one or two family cars - the Launch CRP123X covers that for a fraction of the price. If you need an integrated oscilloscope or J2534 programming, look at the Autel MaxiSYS Elite II Pro.
