It's got brawn and brains, too.
The X3 is a tough DISTO, but it's also smart. It includes our Smart Horizontal feature with an on-board tilt sensor so you can measure over and around obstacles. It also has Bluetooth® so you can transfer your measurements to your computer or tablet-and you can use it with the DISTO Plan App for iOS and Android.
Poor lighting conditions? We can help you lighten up.
The DISTO X3 has a bright, colorized, backlit display for taking measurements in all kinds of lighting conditions, ranging from dark indoor measurements in a basement to bright outdoor measurements.
Take your measurements to the next level.
The X3 is our first DISTO that is compatible with the DST 360, a smart tripod and adapter set that extends the measurement possibilities of your X3. With the DST 360, your X3 turns into a professional measurement station-you can take point to point (P2P) measurements from one location.
Capable of Point-to-Point (P2P) measurement technology.
When used with the DST 360, the X3 can combine rotation, angle, and distance data to produce highly accurate Point-to Point (P2P) measurements, which allows you to accurately measure distances between any two points from a third position.
Make this DISTO even smarter.
Use the DISTO Plan App to access Sketch, Document, and Smart Room features to create detailed CAD-ready floor and wall plans, including doors and windows. Export your plans as .DXF or .DWG files.
