Autel MaxiIM IM608 VS IM608 Pro

What’s the difference between IM608 and IM608 Pro?

The only difference between IM608 and IM608 Pro is the programmer that comes with the tablet.

The tablets themselves IM608 and IM608Pro have no difference in terms of hardware and software. All keep the same.

As for the difference of XP400 and XP400Pro, the main difference is the hardware upgrade. XP400PRO is more powerful.

But the good thing is you can buy XP400Pro and optional adaptors together with any Autel key programming tool like IM608 and IM508 to have the same features with IM608Pro&XP400Pro and optional adaptors.
