Our take on the Thinkcar ThinkTool X5 OBD2 Professional Scanner

The ThinkTool X5 is a professional-grade OBD2 scanner built around remote support. A 5-inch tablet-style tool with Wi-Fi and Ethernet, it lets a technician video-call or message a remote expert who can run diagnostics on the vehicle from another location. It covers engine management and bidirectional controls on 220+ passenger vehicles and 32 truck brands, with pre- and post-scan support for DoIP vehicles. It is aimed at busy shops and bodyshops rather than DIYers, and it sits below the X10S, which adds broader online functionality.
