However, among users and consumers of programmers, there are discussions regarding the customer support provided by Magic Motor Sport. According to the company's claim, they respond quickly and in multiple languages, including English, Italian, German, Spanish, French, Chinese, and Albanian, to their customers. However, some customers of this company have claimed that the responses were inadequate or even delayed by several days, which if true, could be considered a disadvantage of this company and its programmers, Flex and Mag-Pro2.
Moreover, based on the experiences and statements of many users, Flex is an excellent programmer for Bench and Boot modes, but it has weaknesses in comparison to competitors in the OBD mode.
Two interesting options!
There are two interesting options for Flex. The first is the customization feature, where by paying $199, you can add your brand logo to your device or make other design changes to the device. Another option is called the āECU Maskā.
The ECU Mask is an invention used for reading ECU in Bench mode. The way the ECU Mask works is that you place the mask corresponding to each ECU on its pins and connect the relevant sockets, then read the ECU in Bench mode. However, the ECU Mask is more suitable for amateur and semi-professional individuals, and those experienced in ECU tuning do not need an ECU Mask.
