Socket Mobile S800 1D Bluetooth scanner

The Socket Mobile S800 is a cordless handheld barcode scanner that reads one-dimensional symbologies using a linear imager. It connects to host devices through Bluetooth 2.1 with 56 bit encryption and weighs 1.7 ounces with the rechargeable battery installed. The scanner is certified by Apple for iOS and also works with Android and Windows platforms.

Suits mobile workers needing a pocketable sled

Retail associates, field technicians and inventory teams who want a lightweight device that clips to a smartphone or tablet will appreciate the universal klip and antimicrobial housing. Buyers who require two-dimensional code capture or a scanner that operates without a Bluetooth host should consider a different form factor.

Delivers 10 hours or 10,000 scans per charge

The lithium ion battery supports a full shift of continuous scanning at five reads per second. Bluetooth 2.1 maintains the link across the rated range while the scanner survives multiple 3.30 foot drops to vinyl covered concrete. Recharging uses the supplied cable so the unit stays in service without battery swaps.

Questions about this item

What Bluetooth version does my phone or tablet need to pair with the S800 scanner?

The scanner uses Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR with 56-bit encryption, so any host device that supports Bluetooth 2.1 or later will pair with it.

Can I keep using my existing 1D barcode labels with the S800?

Yes — the 1D scan engine reads UPC/EAN, Code 39, Code 128, Codabar, Interleaved 2 of 5 and other common 1D symbologies, so your current labels will scan without changes.

How do I verify the S800 is scanning correctly after pairing?

Open a text field on the host device, scan a known 1D barcode and confirm the data appears instantly; the scanner beeps and the LED flashes green on a good read.
