Zebra TC series · Entry level
TC101
The next generation of the TC1 series: a cost-effective entry point to the Zebra ecosystem with purpose-built technology for frontline workers.
Thanks to its rugged design and a longer lifecycle than smartphones, the TC101 needs fewer repairs and replacements. It is designed for product lookup, task management and replenishment in retail, and for route navigation, proof of delivery and inventory checks in transportation and logistics. It is more rugged than the TC15 and comes with Zebra DNA for Mobile Computers Professional at no charge.
