Autel Seems Able to Solve More Technical Issues:

A Diagnostic Tech, Wrench, said on Batauto forum, “I like autel, it just seems better suited for rough abuse than the launch. I also have used the newer version launch, it seemed slower even though it had android 7.1...

If money is not so much of an option, I would go autel. But the updates are more expensive because the autel actually does more vehicles. Where I live, we get a lot of bizarre cars, diesels and such, and every update I get from autel works.”
