Powerful Cost-Effective Work Tool for Field Service and Transportation
Big news… Earlier this year, Datalogic announced the Memor 30, a wi-fi only handheld which became an immediate great choice for inside-the-facility applications. At that time, certifications were still being sought with cellular carriers so a WWAN option was not available. But now…
Memor 35 Certified With Major US Cellular Carriers
The big news is that Datalogic now has US certification from AT&T and Verizon for the Memor 35. This means that the Memor 35 can now be used by your remote and traveling employees for applications such as field service, proof of delivery, digital forms and data capture, and remote communications.
Now you can consolidate the number of devices which your staff need to carry, because the Memor handheld can cover all of their needs!
Other Key Features of the Datalogic Memor 30 and Memor 35
The CSSI team has become familiar with this device over the past few months, and we can confidently say that it is a professional worktool packed with useful features… and offers a ton of value for the price. Key capabilities and features include:
Integrated data capture/barcode scanner – read barcodes as far as 32 feet away! Datalogic’s unique ‘green spot’ aimer also provides a visual indication when a barcode has been successfully ready.
Tough 6-inch display and a long-lasting battery which is swappable.
Can withstand 6 foot drops to concrete! IP65/68 sealing makes it usable in dirty environments.
Future-proof – The Memor 30/35 is currently shipping with Android 13, and is upgradeable through Android 18.
FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions About the Datalogic Memor 30/35 and Cellular Capabilities
Q: What’s the difference between the Datalogic Memor 30 and the Memor 35? A. Both models share the same rugged design, Android 13 operating system, Qualcomm Octa Core 2.4GHz processor, and Halogen DE2121-ER scan engine. The key difference is cellular connectivity: the Memor 35 adds 5G WWAN, letting it operate as a standalone connected device on cellular networks, while the Memor 30 relies on WiFi 6E only. Both are available in standard-range and long-range (X) scanning configurations, so the choice mostly comes down to whether your workforce needs computers that stay connected outside WiFi coverage.
Q: What wireless capabilities does the Memor 35 offer, and why does 5G matter for a handheld computer? A. The Memor 35 pairs WiFi 6E with integrated 5G cellular, plus Bluetooth and 360° NFC. WiFi 6E delivers faster throughput and less interference in dense warehouse or DC environments, while 5G gives the device its own cellular connection independent of on-site infrastructure. For businesses, that means workers moving between buildings, yard areas, delivery routes, or facilities without full WiFi coverage can stay connected to WMS, MES, or MDM platforms without dropouts — something the WiFi-only Memor 30 can’t do on its own.
Q: Can CSSI help with cellular and data plan solutions for my devices? A. Yes – CSSI has a number of solutions for cellular and WAN data coverage. For many companies, we recommend eSIM solutions such as the FlexiSIM from iOnline, which does not restrict you to the coverage from just one provider. Rather, your device connection switches to whatever the strongest network is. This is ideal for devices which travel in a large geographic area where any given cellular carrier may not offer strong signal in all areas.
Q: Is the Memor 30/35 rugged enough for warehouse, cold storage, or field use? A. Yes. Both models meet MIL-STD-810H standards for shock and vibration, carry an IP65/IP68 rating for dust and water resistance (including 30+ minutes of submersion up to 1 meter), and are built to survive repeated drops to concrete. That combination makes them suitable for cold storage, outdoor yard operations, manufacturing floors, and general distribution environments where consumer-grade devices typically fail.
Q: How long does the battery last, and can it be swapped without shutting the device down? A. Both devices use a 4680 mAh battery that’s hot-swappable, meaning a depleted battery can be replaced without powering down or losing your session — important for multi-shift operations where devices need to stay in continuous use. The battery also supports wireless charging, giving IT teams more flexibility in how charging stations are deployed across a facility.
Q: What scanning range and barcode conditions can the Memor 30/35 handle? A. The Halogen DE2121-ER scan engine uses DeepSight technology to read barcodes from as close as 5 cm out to 10 meters, with Green Spot feedback for scan confirmation and the ability to read damaged or dirty labels. That range and tolerance make it a good fit for both close-range piece-picking and long-range applications like reading pallet labels in high rack storage.
