Review on 🐾 Symcode Pet Microchip Reader Scanner: Handheld RFID EMID Animal Reader for Pet ID Chip Scanning, Tracking, and Management - High Brightness OLED Display for Dogs and Cats by John Murphy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's not a true UNIVERSAL scanner

It's decent value for money but be aware it doesn't recognize 9 and 10 digit ICs which are usually older. Let's hope that in a few years only the new standard 15-digit ISO chips will be implanted in animals. It's a nice sleek design. It does not come with a USB adapter box that allows you to plug the charging cable into a power outlet. So note that you need to charge it with your laptop or buy an adapter separately. I bought another version of this type of device and the backlight on this device is a bit dim. I don't know if this is a variant of each device or if all of this brand have less light - I can still read well but I prefer the other for easier reading.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
