*Correct us if we are wrong.
In Conclusion:
1.Launch x431 v+ supports Bidirectional diagnosis. The other two don’t.
2. X431 V+ and xtool PS90 Pro supports 2 year update free online.
3. Car coverage: X431 V+ > PS90 Pro > F3-G
x431 v+ supports Australian, Indian and Malaysian models. PS90 pro supports Australian models, but no Indian and Malaysian makes.
Heavy duty coverage: Xtool> Launch X431 > Fcar
As we can see Xtool comes with more truck adapters.
4. Fcar F3G comes with printer in default. The other two require extra printer.
5. X431 V+ is the only one supports ECU coding and injector coding function. But X431 cannot do odometer correction. PS90 pro cannot do coding feature but will adjust odometer. Fcar supports less special functions. X431 focus on auto diagnosis, ps90 pro focus on IMMO function and F3-G works better on diesel diagnosis.
6.Fcar F3G is popular in middle east area. PS90 Pro is welcomed by American customer and X431 V+ is sold all over the world.
