      Hello guys, I have also used this product and I really like it! This is a video I made about Phoenix Elite's functions for Audi cars: czcams.com/video/rQtB1g_Y69U/video.html , if you are interested, you can click in and watch it. Might be helpful to you.
      There are more videos of Phoenix Elite performing different functions for different cars on my homepage. If you like it, you can give me a like, and you are welcome to follow me. thanks.

    You're videos are the best! One thing I'd love to know is, can the updates be turned off within the tool settings or are they always forced even if you should not want it to update? Thanks !

      A good mid range is the Topdon Artidiag 800BT it’s blue tooth connected so no wires
      It has Wi-Fi
      A web browser
      Reads all modules
      Has 28 reset functions
      It has live data
      The only thing it doesn’t have
      Is that it’s not bi directional
      But a great thing is free updates for life
      Cost about 375 on Amazon
      I have this model
      So far no problems
      It works well
      Lots of videos on here about them
      This guy also did a review on this AD800BT

      @@coltonlodge693 I think the phoenix elite comes with two years of free updates
      So you have to compare that with other brands that don’t
      And also what the phoenix will cost you after the two free years is up
      I have to say with mine I have had no problems
      Even with no bi directional I can still figure a lot of things out with the live data

      Hi Colton,
      Here is my video on the sub $1000 scan tool I would look at
      czcams.com/video/ZHd0YUIruW0/video.html
      And the 800 bt is very similar to this
      czcams.com/video/Ewky_DsA0MI/video.html
      I link the mini better myself and it has bi directional support at $50 per year per make and also this completely option.

      You need to connect via usb cable to android and send the video via Bluetooth. Only use the included usb to usb c cable as nothing else worked.

    The special functions wont all work on every car. And if like Autel then most that are said to work wont work. I have Autel Ultra and im 608 pro. I know China dont care about us. They have tool coverage website and the data is crap. I am only here after scanner dinner showing this tool. Does not mean that its good even though it looks great.

      Not sure what functions you mean but I have 2 of the named brand tools and so far so good. Is just that you need to understand how stuff on vehicles work and how to use the scan tool and you will be surprised. And regarding the special functions there’s lots of limitations in any tool out there it’s just they all have strong and weak points .

      TOPOLOGY literally is BULLSHIT. I thought it showed you something vitally important. NOPE. Just marketing poop.
