Is Your Launch X431 Device Original?

🔍 How to Verify Authenticity and Avoid Counterfeits

Launch X431 diagnostic devices are among the most popular tools in the automotive repair industry.
However, because of their success and proven quality, the market has also seen a surge of counterfeit copies that may look identical to the original — but in reality, they are limited, unsupported, and potentially unsafe.

In this article, we’ll show you:

  • how to recognize a genuine Launch device,

  • why authenticity matters,

  • and how to verify your serial number online directly through our website.


✅ Why It’s Important That Your Launch Device Is Genuine

✔️ With an original Launch device, you get:

  • Full functionality, including online ECU coding and programming

  • Official software updates directly from Launch servers

  • Faster, more stable, and secure performance

  • Full support, warranty, and expandability (ADAS, TPMS, oscilloscope, and more)

❌ With a non-original (fake) device, you risk:

  • Missing or disabled functions

  • Outdated or locked software versions

  • Potential system errors or even vehicle damage

  • No warranty, no updates, and no technical support

📦 How to Recognize a Genuine Launch X431 Device

🔹 1. Serial Number (SN)

Every genuine Launch X431 device has a unique serial number (SN), which you can find in several places:

  • On the back of the Android tablet,

  • On the OBD2 connector (VCI module),

  • Inside the device menu under “About Device” or “O napravi.”

🔹 2. Security Code Card

When you purchase an original Launch device, you also receive a Security Code Card.
This card includes a hidden code covered by a scratch layer — and it’s essential for authenticity verification.
