To quell the restless masses, specs! Everyone loves specs!
Here is a list of stuff about what this does. Come on kids, it's not bad for the price..
1. Applications:
VAG5053 is a powerful, affordable handy scanner designed for all VW, AUDI, SKODA, and SEAT vehicles. It is small in size, robust in design, competitive in price and easy to use. With only 10% of the cost of a large special tool, it can nearly do the same work as that of a VAG1551/1552. This is a stand alone unit; it does not need a laptop computer to operate.
2. Available Functions:
Control Unit Information
Read Fault Codes
Measuring Blocks
Clear Fault Codes
Basic Setting
Adaptation
Single Reading
Output Tests
Code Module
Login
Service Oil Reset
Code Modes
Dealership Code Set
3. Supported Systems:
VAG5053 can support the following systems:
Engine
Transmission
Airbag, etc.
there are 78 systems available.
4. Main Features:
Low price: the price is only about 10% of that for a large special tool
Powerful functions: it can nearly do the same work as that of a VAG1551/1552
Powered via diagnostic connector, no additional power is needed
Plug and play, ease to use
High reliable and accurate
I'll get more info from the factory if possible to cover all 78 systems it covers..

Why is there such animosity over this?
just curious, but how do you know this?
I don't think I've once said it's going to do EVERYTHING a VAG-COM can do, or a 5052. This is merely a low cost diagnostic tool for people who want something cheap and simple.
Please stop making more of this than I've ever claimed. Clearly, you want a high end unit, and thats what you should go buy. Leave the rest of us normal humans alone.

Manual for review.
4d4, I found a manual for this unit, if you want to review, you may be able to tell far more than I can about it, but i think 2.7 is a little hung up on this unit not being adequate for his needs.
Perhaps he's never going to be happy unless he pays $1000 for a fancy unit.
Anyway, he's clearly not interested in getting one of these, so why waste your time on him?
Let me know what you can make out of the manual.
Thanks
Marty
