A:The major difference will be:
1. X-prog3 PC version VW Audi Porsche ECU Cloning function is in the Data processing section
2. The PC adapter connection is more convenient
3. Data reading and writing speed is faster and more stable (3x times faster than Android tablet)
4. Data processing and transfer on PC are more convenient
5. PC software adds MEDC17 ECUs immo off function.
6. PC version only for ECU and TCU, can not do immobilizer key programming. If need to program keys, use x-prog3 with x431 tablet.

A:In sum:
Launch X431 ECU programmer and CG FC200 are very similar.
FC200 will read and write some ECUs via OBD and boot mode, Launch programmer mainly do bench read/write.
FC200 will do some more ECUs (MD1CS089, SID208 etc) with recent updates.
Both software is user-friendly, Launch x431 has multi-language option, FC200 only English.
Due to recent user feedback, launch ecu programmer is wining in fc200 in speed. it is faster in reading and writing. It is good for cloning. as well.

A:2 years update online, after that , the subscription is $299/year or so
