1. While D8 and D7 may seem similar in capabilities such as:
- full system diagnostics,
- bi-directional control,
- 23 common service functions,
- ECU coding for VAG cars like VW, SKODA, and AUDI.
2. XTOOL D8 comes equipped with a powerful 10,000mAh battery, ideal for extended use throughout the day. It also boasts a kickstand and camera, enhancing its convenience.
D7 comes with a less powerful 4,000mAh battery and lacks the kickstand and camera features.
3. D8 scans systems and performs active tests at remarkable speed, significantly faster than D7. It was so efficient that I found myself getting through jobs quicker.
In addition, D8’s active tests are far superior to D7’s. It even has a “special functions” button under each sub-section, which the D7 lacks entirely.
For instance, when I tested the “windows” system, the D8 offered additional options, such as a one-touch feature that rolled down the window. This makes repairs more convenient and efficient.
4. XTOOL D8 does have one advantage over the D7. It is equipped to work on CAN FD protocol vehicles, which allows it to scan and repair the latest GM cars.
