Best Bi-Directional Scan Tool? XTOOL D8BT Unboxing, Setup, Walkthrough, & First Impressions

After buying a newer car that needed a remote programmed to it, uses TPMS sensors, and just has a lot more technology packed into it, I decided to buy a bi-directional scan tool. My prior scan tool was a cheap Hyper Tough dongle that connects to your phone to scan any trouble codes, clear codes, and do oil life resets. I figured I'd rather have cheap portable scan tool over having to hope one of the master techs at a parts store could scan it for me but I decided I would also like to upgrade to a bi-directional model so I can perform TPMS relearns, program remotes, and basically be future-proofed for the light diagnostic and mechanical work I might need to perform on my current and future vehicles. This XTOOL model seems to be able to do many of the functions of thousand dollar diagnostic tools at a fraction of the price and seems to have good reviews across the board for their various models so I decided it would be worth the money to have a quality scan tool. In this video I cover the unboxing, setup, and first impressions of using the tool so you can decide if this model is capable of what you need in a scan tool and show how the user interface works.
