What are Autel's top and latest models?
Autel's latest models released in 2020 — MS Ultra, MS 919 and MS 909 — are the newest and highest-performance products in the MaxiSys series.
They are the best diagnostic tools where Autel quality meets the latest technology. They differ in a few hardware and functional respects.
Ultra and 919 include the latest protocols plus oscilloscope, multimeter, waveform generator and CAN bus check functions. The main difference between them is the tablet.
MS 919 has a 9.7-inch TFT-LCD Asahi glass touchscreen, 128 GB storage and a 15000 mAh battery, while MS Ultra has a 12.9-inch TFT-LCD Corning touchscreen, 256 GB storage and an 18000 mAh battery.
Ultra's tablet has a faster processor. Ultra also includes a charging stand.
Another feature that sets Ultra and 919 apart is DTC analysis and fault code solutions. Unlike 919, Ultra also has a repair tips video library.
You can choose these devices for high-performance work on many makes and models from 1996 onwards.
Another of Autel's 2020 models is MS 909. Its tablet matches MS 919 specifications, but MS 909 does not include oscilloscope, multimeter, waveform generator or CAN bus check.
Like MS Ultra and MS 919, however, you can perform DTC analysis, resolve DTC issues and find fault code solutions.
Autel's other high-performance devices that support online operations are MS Elite and MS 908S Pro.
With these devices you can perform Mercedes online programming and SCN coding, BMW online programming and hidden feature activation, Porsche online coding, VAG group online coding and hidden features, Volvo automatic transmission adaptation, Land Rover and Range Rover calibration, Renault online configuration and hidden features, Ford AdBlue reset and DPF regeneration, Toyota automatic transmission calibration and many other operations.
The only difference between Elite and 908S Pro is tablet specifications. Elite has a 1.8 GHz Android 4.4.4 processor; 908S Pro runs Android 4.4.2 with 1.3 GHz + 1.7 GHz processors. Elite has a 13600 mAh battery; 908S Pro has an 11000 mAh battery.
Touchscreen specs: Elite 9.7 inch at 2048x1536 resolution; 908S Pro 1024x768 resolution.
Autel's other products include the Maxidas DS808 and Maxicheck MX808.

With DS808 you can also perform active tests. Unlike MX808, DS808 includes a cable set for vehicles from model year 2000 and earlier.
Besides DS808 and MX808, Autel offers the Maxidiag MD808 Pro as a handheld terminal. With lifetime free updates you can perform many basic service jobs quickly and easily.
It connects to all vehicles with an OBD port and is portable enough to carry with you.

It is a professional diagnostic tool that connects to the vehicle via Bluetooth through an app on Android or iOS phones for many service operations. You can view all systems such as engine, airbag, ABS and transmission.
AP200 initially comes with one brand software; you can then purchase all other brands through the app.
