Smartphones have come a long way in the past decade. They’ve gotten smaller and then bigger, with improvements in imaging, function, and voice commands. These are all great consumer-centered features. But does that make a smartphone the right choice for a demanding workplace, like a plant, distribution center, or T&L operation? At Avalon Integration, we’ve seen enough of these devices fail when put to an enterprise test. It’s time to replace the consumer smartphone with the smarter, faster, and more rugged Zebra TC52 touch computer.

If you’re a Millennial, technology comes pretty easy to maneuver. However, it can still take time to adjust to a new device, particularly when that equipment hasn’t been designed to enhance the user experience. The Avalon Integration team recently discovered that the Zebra MC3300 Handheld Mobile Computer elevates user-friendly to a new standard that you’ll appreciate, no matter how tech-savvy you are.
So, why do you need the Zebra MC3300 Handheld Mobile Computer?
The MC3300 is about as easy as it gets—and just as versatile. Zebra designed the rugged handheld computer so you can customize it to the way you’re going to use it. Choose from four form factors, three scan engines, three keypads, and three tiers of functionality. With all of these choices, you can transform this mobile computer into a purpose-built device that nails every task you need, with accuracy and ease.
Look at the data input options. The MC3300 has both a touchscreen and keyboard, with your choice of alphanumeric, numeric, and functional numeric keypads. The 4-inch screen is plenty large enough to type easily, so your workers aren’t wasting time with a temperamental touchscreen that commands precision.
Zebra powers the MC3300 with its fortified Android for enterprise-class function. Right out of the box, the computer runs the latest version of Android, so users have the familiarity that comes with this operating system—i.e., no training required. You can also upgrade easily to future Android versions. And if the pain of OS migration that resulted from Microsoft’s abandonment is still fresh on your mind, you should know that Zebra guarantees security updates for 10 years from the release date.
So, why do you need the Zebra MC3300 Handheld Mobile Computer?
Speaking of power, the MC3300 Handheld Mobile Computer is engineered for performance. Run two apps side by side or flip back and forth. Just press a button to get where you need, and the lightning-fast processor will take you there in an instant. Zebra installed a Qualcomm 8056 1.8GHz Hexa-core processor with power optimization. That means you’re running with up to 16 times the RAM and 32 to 125 times the Flash memory.
For those TE apps you’re already using, the MC3300 will run them, right out of the box. There’s no backend modification necessary. You also have the popular Ivanti Velocity TE pre-loaded and pre-licensed on the device. But if you need to update your TEs or convert green screen apps, Zebra’s AllTouch TE is also pre-loaded, which helps you gain the more intuitive, graphics screens that today’s users prefer.

The MC3300 Handheld Mobile Computer has been designed with backward compatibility to the earlier MC3200, so if you’ve already invested in accessories, you can continue to use them. But you might want to consider new accessories, like the universal ShareCradle so you can charge the batteries even faster. Options also include the PowerPrecision+ battery that delivers longer perform as well as valuable metrics for battery health and life. And the forklift mount for the MC3300 Handheld Mobile Computer is a new and potentially invaluable accessory.
You can’t talk about user-friendly without also addressing connectivity. With support for the 802.11ac, the MC3300 Handheld Mobile Computer is fast to connect…and stay that way.

There was a time when the term “rugged mobile computer” meant a heavyweight, cumbersome device. Then Zebra stepped up and changed all that. They created mobile computers that looked like smartphones and tablets but performed way above those limited standards. We’ve become accustomed to a higher grade of performance, durability, and functionality from Zebra, and they’ve continued to meet our expectations. Now, just when you thought you couldn’t get more from your rugged handheld, Zebra launches the MC3300 mobile computer.
The MC3300 Mobile Computer is more versatility.
The MC3300 Mobile Computer gives you four ways to configure the device: pistol-grip, turret style with rotating head, and both a straight shooter 0º and 45º scan. No matter how you need to grip this device, you can choose the ergonomics to fit. In addition to these choices, you have the option of three scan engines, three keypads, and three levels of functionality.
More data capture.
This new Zebra mobile computer presents the broadest scanning range of any device in its class. Grab barcodes from as close as 3 inches and as far away as 70 feet—even barcodes that are scratched, dirty, damaged, or covered with shrinkwrap.
More app efficiency.
The Ivanti Velocity platform is pre-loaded on the MC3300, allowing you to run terminal emulation (TE) apps immediately, with no back-end modification required, and no additional cost, because it’s pre-licensed.
More durability.
The MC3300 has been tested and survived more than 1,000 tumbles from 3.2 feet and drops on concrete from up to 5 feet. The IP54 sealing also protects the handheld from dirt, dust, and spills. The Corning Gorilla Glass provides the touchscreen with unmatched scratch protection.
More communication.
Use your mobile computer like a PBX handset or walkie-talkie. Add Zebra’s Wi-Fi-enabled Workforce Connect and push-to-talk on the MC3300 mobile computer to connect with anyone, from anywhere in your facility. The device supports 802.11ac so your connections are fast.
MC3300 Mobile Computer has more productivity.
Keep your workers focused on work, not play. Zebra’s Mobility DNA makes it easy to choose which apps and features can be accessed on the device.
MC3300 Mobile Computer has more enterprise power.
Zebra’s Mobility Extensions (Mx) elevate Android to an enterprise-grade operating system. That means your MC3300 mobile computer comes pre-loaded and ready to run—with greater security, data capture, connectivity, and device management. In addition, Zebra future-proofs with LifeGuard for Android, a guarantee that the OS will be supported with security updates for 10 years from the release date. You can migrate to Android with confidence.
The MC3300 is the next generation up from the MC3200, and it is compatible with most of the MC3200’s accessories, giving you more ease in the transition to the new rugged handheld.
