Zebra WS501-R Wearable Terminal (WS5012-0D3M1030EEA)

The Zebra WS501-R is the smallest all-in-one RFID wearable computer: a UHF RFID reader, an SR560 1D/2D imager and a full Android computer with a 2" AMOLED touchscreen, worn on the hand – no RFID sled, handheld reader or ring scanner needed. With 3 GB RAM / 32 GB Flash, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 and a 2400 mAh hot-swap battery, it speeds up receiving, picking, sorting and inventory in RFID-tagged operations. This version, WS5012-0D3M1030EEA, is the European (EEA) version for the EU RFID band 865–868 MHz.

• RFID and barcodes in one wearable – capture UHF RFID tags and 1D/2D barcodes without switching devices.

• SR560 imager – reads damaged and poorly printed barcodes, even in motion, with a wide field of view.
• Next-generation platform – Qualcomm quad-core 2.0 GHz, 3 GB RAM / 32 GB Flash, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 – triple the memory of the WS50 RFID.
