Launch X431 Pad VII vs Eurotab III

Image
 What is difference between Launch X431 pad VII and Eurotab III? The name! Euro Tab "name" was created for LaunchTech Europe to sell a European specific model and not have to compete against online seller's advertising the same thing (In this case the PAD VII). The Euro Tab is a European "Specific" model because of the name, the change in colour for the bumper cover and that the Home Screen is black and white only. ALL OTHER SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE IS EXACTLY THE SAME. But how it's sold "could" be different as a local vendor might add extra product/updates to entice buyers. For example, Eurotab supports X-431 FIX and haynes pro repair database, PAD 7 does not. www.x431shop.eu
