I had the chance to use this tool for a while before I did the review. I even took it to Pittsburgh and showed it to ScannerDanner. We agree that it’s a capable tool but perhaps a bit slow. I’m no expert, but I think it has something to do with the processor used. That said, it still has a lot of great features and at this price point, I think it’s a great value. The Encore really shines when you add features like Identifix. With just a few clicks, you’re well on your way to a diagnosis. The Android operating system also makes it easy to learn and use. All around, I think the OTC Encore is a great tool and represents a transition into the next generation of scan tools.
