1228BC-1D CCD

I initially ordered this scanner to make my own custom POS system. Initially, I connected through Bluetooth and it was recognised as a plug and play device. It was essentially a wireless keyboard which scans text, types it very fast and adds a ‘return’ key at the end. I was amazed to go to the support website and find tons of different ways to program this scanner and the most important one to me was that it supported Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). With this, I could connect directly to the app I was developing and send data back and forth from the barcode. One thing I’d like to see improved is a way to send and receive silent messages. Right now, I can request the scanner’s battery level by sending a code to the scanner but this trigger’s the scanner’s beep just like as if it was physically scanned. Of course, you could disable the beeper all together but that’s not what I want. I’d like to send and receive the battery messages silently and keep everything else audible. Still giving 5 stars but I’d like to see an improvement where specific messages can be silent

Connects over Bluetooth to my iPhone and lets me scan barcodes directly into the inventory app I use for work. Comes with a booklet of barcodes you scan to change settings on the scanner, you will need to give it a flick through to find the right one for your use case. But after that it’s so quick and easy to use!! 😁

I purchased this scanner to be able to be wire free and to reliably read Barcodes of various qualities, To me this model has so far, been able to complete this function. Another need was to be able to reliably scan the barcodes on long stockist sheets and again this model achieves this. What it cant do is scan QR Codes. What is also good is the fact that you can interface with a Mac/ PC/ iPad using Bluetooth/Cable/Wireless. Another good thing with this scanner is that the battery will last for a large number between Charges. All in all a great value basic Barcode Scanner.

Nice and simple to use, just plug in the dongle and get scanning your library. You will need a programme that can take the input. Nice a quick scans.

This works flawlessly with a sumup POS lite. Battery lasts a long time between charges and it reads the barcodes nice and quickly. Very easy to use and setup using the supplied book of mode barcodes. Nice size too, fits in the hand well.

Brilliant

This is not a tool for those who are not tech savvy. The user's manual is complicated and I found myself unable to understand how to use the scanner despite reading it through and following the steps to the best of my ability. Turning to Youtube didn't help matters either so now I have a big blue paperweight and just used the scanner on the Libib app through my phone.

This product is simple to use and comes with an informative instruction manual. The product itself operates by scanning barcodes ( from a card included in your purchase) that it then registers and changes its behaviour. For example you can scan a barcode that will then tell the device to start looking for Bluetooth connections! I have had this for a few months and it works great. Would recommend.

Seldom do I review much of anything I buy from this site, but given there's not a lot of information about my specific use case for this, I'd figure I'd leave one for anyone that happens to be curious and is in a similar position. Context: I'm an overnight Walmart Team Associate, five nights a week, and I stock shelves all night long. A majority of my nights are spend in the Frozen food isles stocking there and creating inventory tags for the product. (Vizpick Label if you're familiar with the terminology.) We recently had been shipped Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro phones to replace the old TC70 and ect, handheld devices we use to find items, print labels, price changes, and so on. This was company wide, btw. The old devices had a barcode scanner built into it, but these new devices don't. While it's possible to use the camera, it's often a pain depending on the lighting, the focus, the item itself, just slower overall. Most of the workers are obviously annoyed at this, and there's no plans to send any scanners with the phones as far as I know. There's an argument to be made about workers having to purchase this kind of stuff, that the company should be paying for this, but this review isn't about that. I had cashback stacked on my Prime rewards card so I hardly paid for this. If you're looking for something for a very similar use case, or work at Walmart in a similar position, and don't care dropping the $35 for a scanner, read on. The scanner itself is obviously not top-tier engineering, cheap plastic, could use some grip for the handle. Kind of bulky, but I have a tool holster and it fit in the widest hook pretty well. The button has maybe 2MM of travel before it clicks, but it's not bad. Got some weight to it, not as much as the hand-scanners at the registers. On the bottom is where the USB dongle is stored, but there's no cover for it. I just left it in the box. The USB cable plugs into the bottom as well, uses a big 'printer cable' USB port. I'm unsure if you can use the cable for a printer, and probably would have tested it if I had one. Also, the USB port is exposed. While the port itself is about half an inch deep, I wouldn't be surprised if it died because some liquid got into there. Be mindful of that. The light on top has at least 3(?) colors. When you initially plug it in to charge, it'll probably be orange, but turns to green when it's completely full. Pressing the button once wakes it up. Assuming you're using the bluetooth, it'll sync to your phone the same as pulling out any wireless earbuds. But sometimes it takes a moment, it's been as short as 5 seconds, but sometimes takes 15-20. Not sure why, as there's no other devices paired to the phone. Once it's on and connected, the light turns blue, and that's it. It handles the barcodes by acting like a bluetooth keyboard. When you scan a barcode, it types it out, then presses enter. I haven't read through the manual to see if it can be tweaked, but for the most part is consistent. Sometimes it can scan only half of the barcode, so be sure the red line light is picking up the whole barcode. Also, time to bring up the manual. Somewhat not as bad broken English, if you're tech savvy and have comprehended my review up to this point, it's not hard to set up. To change any of it's settings, (Sleep time, bluetooth mode, ect,) it has a series of barcodes that you scan to set those settings. It's strange, but given it only has one button, I don't know how else it could have been done without a computer. (Maybe a dedicated BT button?) All you really do is scan a barcode that puts it into bluetooth pairing mode, and have your phone pair it like any other bluetooth device, didn't take long and was ready to go in only a minute. So, for the Walmart workers that know about the new phones and how handling inventory works, well, it's more consistent than the camera. Assuming you're in the Me@Walmart app and in the shelf availability menu, you just hit the search icon, then scan. It types it in and hits enter. Given I had the phone a week before getting the scanner, I can say for me it's been a lot more faster and consistent. If I'm printing vizpick labels for overstock, after I hit print, I hit the search again so I'm ready to scan another item immediately after. It's held up well in other departments from pets to automotive, from garden to housewares. For OGP, I'm not too familiar with, and they haven't taken away all of our old devices for OGP (yet,) but every OGP associate that uses a phone has told me it'd be better given the sleep time for the scanner could be set to up to 30 minutes. I should also mention the manual has a barcode to turn it off manually, might have to print it out with some online barcode creator, or a good picture on your phone. As far as battery life goes, sleep mode being 1 minute and using it at least 2 hours a day roughly, it's lasted 10 days over 2 weeks of work. I did notice it drained the phone's batter a bit more, but I charge it when I wake up before work anyway, so it's never been a big issue. Durability, still unsure of. I did drop it once from about 3 1/2 feet, onto concrete, and didn't have or see any issues. Dunno about the next fall, but will update it when it does fall and break. --- Overall, it's been pretty good. My main issues are the cheap plastic possibly falling apart on a really bad fall, the exposed USB charging port at the bottom, and the scanner only picking up part of the barcode. But otherwise, it's been consistent, faster, and the night I walked into work with it, I felt like the cool kid at school that got a Gameboy for his birthday, and everyone was asking to try it out and in envy that I have a scanner with a decent handle. I'll update this review if anything comes up, but overall, if you're a Walmart worker looking for a cheap scanner for freight, labels, and tagging stuff, this is a good option if you can get over it being slightly bulky.

It works as advertised. Connect to any device via Bluetooth. Good for inventory tracking.

This scanner is so practical. I got the version without the qr code scanning, because I will not be needing that. I use it mostly to scan my books for my online library and other work related stuff. It is really nice. It comes with a little booklet of commands to scan to make the installation and configuration easy. Can only recommend!
