We like this Magellan 1500i scanner, which has transformed our clients' checkout experience.
The Perfect Blend of Power and Practicality
Your retail barcode scanner needs are becoming more complex. The magellan 1500 offers versatile scanning capabilities in a compact, stylish package that won't crowd your counter space.
Advanced Features That Make a Difference
The POS scanner system
It uses digital imaging technology, which, in practice, we have seen handle everything from traditional barcodes to digital loyalty cards and mobile coupons so that it can read codes up to 25 centimetres away.
Smart lights
What makes this datalogic magellan 1500i special is its unique lights that adjust themselves - like how your phone screen gets brighter or dimmer depending on where you are. The plus is the scanner can keep working while being gentle on the eyes, which is essential when working at a shop counter for a long time. Think of it like having a clever desk lamp that knows exactly how bright it needs to be - not too bright to hurt your eyes, but bright enough to do the job well.
Versatility in Action
It can automatically switch between hands-free and handheld modes. When you pick it up, it activates an LED aimer and uses 'Green Spot' technology to confirm successful scans.
Aesthetics
It is available in black or white, complementing a shop counter.
Size
Its small footprint makes it particularly valuable for shops with premium counter space.
Built to Last
I like that it is built to withstand drops. It was tested on repeated drops of 1.2 metres onto concrete. Unfortunately, we see this drop far too often in shops, particularly in handheld mode.
Why Consider Upgrading?
If you need a new scanner, I recommend this one.
