A good replacement for the wired version.

Easy replacement for an equivalent wired box. Our customer service reps have been happy with it so far, the battery life has been solid and the techs have been happy they didn't have to change anything to accommodate that. The base connects like a regular USB scanner and the Bluetooth receiver is in the base.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Old

Great all round scanner

I just got this scanner after upgrading an almost 10 year old character scanner. It has been greatly improved. This thing is SUPER fast at reading barcodes, although it's not easy. Also works great with on-screen barcodes. I connected it to my computer via USB, which also charges the battery. There's also Bluetooth, but I haven't used it yet.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Not bad but...

They last for several years which is good as they are not cheap

We have been using this scanner for over a month now and it works very well. In fact, there are several of them in our stores. They last a few years, which is good because they're not cheap. You must be careful when ordering these things. Some look like it, but they don't have a USB cable, Bluetooth radio, etc. This model has it all.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Almost never

Buy from an authorized dealer or buy something else

Didn't work for me, tried scanning various settings to get it working and am through 500+ pages online -Went to manual, learned blink codes and sound codes, no dice. I've managed to connect to my phone via Bluetooth and turn the beep down/down, although still not printing but hiding or broadcasting something. I tried the 123scan program, there are no bones. The software serial number was different than the serial number advertised, Zebra/Motorola support could not have helped me as a serialโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

Great and powerful device

I was looking for the right 2D wireless barcode/QR code scanner to inventory tons of computing devices at work, especially Chromebooks. After reviewing all the options, I settled on the Zebra/Motorola Symbol DS6878-SR. This works great and connects perfectly with all my Bluetooth devices (from Android tablet, Chromebook and Windows laptop). There are some configuration options you can enable (e.g. enabling the default caps lock if you can get the serial number from a barcode), but you'll needโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for seniors
