Code reader recommendations?

Any recommendations on a brand of code readers that I should check out?

I have a Scangauge 2, fairly inexpensive and it's compact and has pretty decent realtime guages on it. For example on mine I have Intake Air Temp, Oil Temp, Water Temp, and A/F Ratio. Mounted it on the dash on the left.

An OB2 bluetooth device using an app like torque.
Was helping a friend get the cel code and got 2 codes as P0000 via scan gauge. In comparison I got 8 codes using torque
