Zebra Mobile Computer
Zebra TC101 Enterprise Android Mobile Computer
A frontline handheld for Hong Kong retail, logistics, field and light warehouse teams that need 5G, Wi-Fi 6, removable batteries and multiple scanning configurations.
Product Overview
An enterprise Android platform for connected frontline work
The Zebra TC101 is an enterprise Android mobile computer, not a general consumer phone. Its 6-inch display, rugged construction, optional scan engines, 5G and Wi-Fi 6 support frontline receiving, stock checks, delivery, inspection and asset-record workflows on one platform. Wi-Fi 6E, scan engine, SIM and Zebra DNA Core+ availability varies by region or configuration.
Quick Fit
Does TC101 fit your workflow?
Everyday frontline work that needs barcode capture, enterprise device management, 5G or Wi-Fi and a removable battery.
Scan engine, Wi-Fi 6E, SIM, standard or extended battery, charging and protective accessories.
Long-range warehouse scanning, physical-key workflows, tablet-size displays or extreme-environment ultra-rugged use.
Fit Check
Check the workflow boundary before selecting the device
Better-fit workflows
- Retail receiving, price checks, replenishment and stock counts
- Delivery, field inspection and photographic records
- Light warehouse receiving, verification and asset identification
Compare another device class
- High-rack or very long-range scanning
- Heavy gloved input that depends on physical keys
- Tablet-size display or forklift-mounted workflows
Key Features
Eight points to understand before procurement
6-inch HD+ display
720 × 1440, 450 nits, Gorilla Glass and optical bonding for clear frontline work.
Enterprise platform
Qualcomm Dragonwing QCM4490 up to 2.4 GHz; 6 GB RAM / 64 GB UFS.
5G and Wi-Fi 6
5G Release 16, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3; Wi-Fi 6E has regional and licensing conditions.
Scanning choices
SE4100, SR500, SR560 or camera-based directions, depending on region and configuration.
Removable batteries
Standard 3,800 mAh or extended 5,200 mAh PowerPrecision battery.
Cameras and NFC
13 MP rear camera, 5 MP front camera and NFC for record and identification workflows.
Rugged construction
IP68 / IP65; 1.2 m drop, or 1.5 m with rugged boot; 500 tumbles.
Enterprise software
Zebra DNA Core platform; some Core+, Wi-Fi 6E or tool capabilities require licensing.
Applications
Common application workflows
Retail operations
Receiving, price checks, shelf replenishment, inventory lookup and store tasks.
Logistics and delivery
Parcel verification, route tasks, proof records and exception photos.
Field service
Work-order updates, asset checks, inspection and location records.
Light warehouse
Receiving, put-away, picking verification and cycle counting.
Accessories & Platform
Plan batteries, charging, protection and software together
A practical deployment normally considers the device, standard or extended batteries, charging cradles, protective cases, carrying method and device management together. Workflows that depend on a particular scan range, SIM, Wi-Fi 6E or Core+ capability should confirm regional availability, licensing and system requirements first.
Selection Guide
Four steps to narrow the TC101 configuration
Define the work area
Confirm whether the device is mainly used in stores, warehouses, vehicles or outdoors, then list Wi-Fi and 5G needs.
Define scanning
Compare camera or scan-engine options against barcode type, distance, lighting and frequency.
Check power and accessories
Use shift length, charging locations, drop risk and carrying method to select batteries and protection.
Confirm software and region
Check Android apps, MDM, Zebra DNA licensing, SIM and wireless conditions for the target market.
Configuration Comparison
How do the scanning directions compare?
| Direction | Better fit | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Camera-based configuration | Low-to-medium frequency capture with a stronger photo requirement | Confirm barcode quality, speed and app requirements |
| SE4100 | General near-range 1D / 2D scanning | Green LED; availability varies by region |
| SR500 | Near-range scanning with a different aiming experience | Yellow LED; availability varies by region |
| SR560 | Specified red-light / laser aimer direction | Availability varies by region; confirm configuration |
Buying Pitfalls
Avoid four common procurement gaps
Quoting by model name only
TC101 still varies by scanner, battery, SIM and region; confirm the complete configuration.
Assuming Wi-Fi 6E is standard
Wi-Fi 6E is optional and involves Zebra DNA Core+ and regional availability.
Ignoring scan distance
Near-range store scanning and longer-distance warehouse labels may need different configurations.
Omitting power and protection
Build the accessory list around device count, shifts, drop risk and charging locations.
