Datalogic launches Skorpio X5 XLR mobile computer

Datalogic, a global leader in the automatic data capture and factory automation markets, has announced the Skorpio X5 XLR, a new mobile computer that extends the reading span. Datalogic says its top performing scan engine provides the largest range of scanning distances available on the market with the addition of the XLR model. This best-in-class mobile computer is now empowered to face even tougher enterprise challenges with the ability to read close and very far barcodes in the blink of an eye.

The Skorpio X5 offers the choice between Linear Imager, Standard 2D Imager, Mid-Range Imager, and now the unrivalled 2D near-far Extra-long Range (XLR). The innovative Extra-Long-Range imager is perfect for all applications where the same device must seamlessly read codes at different distances, up to 20m.

The friendly aimer, the exceptional snappiness, and the ability to read through forklift windscreen shrink wrap film, damaged or poorly printed and dirty barcodes make the Skorpio XLR an exceptional productivity tool in the hands of warehouse professionals. The screen is the largest and brightest in the rugged mobile computer market so operators can easily read its unique 4.3” display. It is able to run feature-rich applications while maintaining maximum readability.

Customers can work smoothly while running the most energy-demanding applications and withstand very challenging environments. The Skorpio X5 XLR can operate for very long shifts – like extended shifts in warehouses and distribution centres. It comes with hot swappable battery technology, unique adjustable battery management settings, and the Datalogic industry-first wireless charging system for ultra-reliable contactless charging. In addition, it is extremely easy to check the battery status directly on the Datalogic Smart Battery.

Personnel can work much faster and run simultaneously the most demanding mobile applications. The top computational power of the market-leading 2.2 Ghz CPU Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 platform makes everything easier and faster than ever.

The unmatched user experience, stability, ease of use, and security are guaranteed by running the updated Android 10 operating system. In addition, ease of use is also enhanced by the GMS (Google Mobile Services) suite for Google applications.

Users can efficiently work for long shifts using the Skorpio X5 XLR, and prevent fatigue: the device is light, ergonomic, comfortable, and perfectly balanced. In order to help customers to tailor the device to their specific operational needs, the new XLR models offer the choice among three keyboard layouts.

Finally, the Skorpio X5 XLR is a fully rugged device. Operators can use it safely even in the harshest environments. It withstands multiple drops up to 1.8m onto concrete, is hermetic to dust, and protected against waterjets IP65. It is validated as an “Android Enterprise Recommended” rugged device, a curated list of enterprise requirements as specified by Google in terms of hardware, software and support.
