SKU: 

TC78A1-3T1K6E2A1A-FT

The Zebra TC78A1-3T1K6E2A1A-FT ships with 8 GB RAM and 128 GB of flash storage paired with a Qualcomm 6490 octa-core processor running at 2.70 GHz, giving it the headroom to run simultaneous enterprise applications across Android 16 with Google Mobile Services. Its SE55 Advanced Range imager reads 1D and 2D barcodes at distances up to 40 ft in trigger-scan mode, while Sub-6 5G, Wi-Fi 6E over IEEE 802.11ax, NFC, Bluetooth 5.2, and dual Nano/eSIM slots cover every connectivity requirement in transportation, logistics, distribution, and manufacturing workflows. The 4680 mAh Li-Ion battery is hot-swappable and wireless-charging capable, supporting uninterrupted shifts, and the 6-inch Full HD+ LED touchscreen — protected by Corning Gorilla Glass — operates wet or with gloves. A 16 MP rear camera with optical image stabilization and an 8 MP front camera handle documentation and video calls, and the 12.30 oz chassis measures 7 in x 3.4 in x 1.1 in with IP65 and IP68 sealing, surviving multiple 10 ft drops to concrete per MIL-STD 810H across an operating range of -4°F (-20°C) to 122°F (50°C). TAA compliant and RoHS certified, the unit carries a one-year limited warranty.
