Launch has a 'pros mini' option that is relatively cheap ($800) compared to Autel with same functionality. When I contacted Autel, what they recommended me to use for a BMW was around $1100.

I would only see that as a good investment maybe if you're in a working mechanic shop where taking your time isn't in your best (or customers) interest and you're diagnosing several cars a day.

I personally don't see the value in a 1k tool that essentially does the same thing as an old laptop/ODB cable combo. I know I'm a cheap bastard but that what "DIY" means to me
