Yep, X tools one is great.

Just make sure you don't twist the handle as you use it as if you do you can change the torque setting without realising.

Hey minor issue and once you realise the "issue" it's not an issue anymore.👍

I've got the xtools one under the bbb brand and 5nm torque keys, also have topeak torqbits in 4,5,6nm to check against the xtools type and all seem to sort of agree with each other, give or take a 16th of a turn. For the cassette, pedals and bottom bracket I bought a Clarkes digital as it works on left hand threads too. Love the digital one, will probably buy lower torque version too.
