The next generation in wi-fi 6 and device tracking technology
Building on the success of our highly successful MC3300x mobile computer, the MC3300ax offers new features that will take workforce productivity, device utilization and application development simplicity to the next level. Support for Wi-Fi 6 delivers unmatched Wi-Fi performance and future-proofing — whether you are in the process of migrating to Wi-Fi 6 or planning to migrate in the near future, with the MC3300ax, you’re ready. Support for the latest version of Device Tracker means no more lost devices — an optional battery with an integrated Bluetooth beacon makes it easy to find a missing device in minutes. Enterprise Browser is yours to use, free of charge, so it’s easy to create intuitive apps that take advantage of all of the MC3300ax features. And since you can use all of your MC3300x accessories, upgrading to the latest mobile platform couldn’t be easier or more cost-effective.
Powerful features to boost productivity
Built for all-day business
You get reliable operation and peace of mind with an increased 6 ft./1.8 m drop specification across the operating temperature, triple the tumble specification (3,000 3.3 ft./1 m), and now IP64 dustproof sealing. Corning® Gorilla® Glass on the touch panel and scan window protects your investment from regular wear and tear.
Superior performance on all of your voice and data apps
Power even the most demanding apps of today and tomorrow with the most powerful processor and most memory in this class — every model offers an ultra-powerful 2.2 GHz octa-core processor and 4 GB RAM/32 GB Flash.
Power three shifts with the class-leading 7000 mAh battery
The 7000 mAh extended capacity battery is standard with every MC3300ax. More power means fewer battery changes, easier battery management, and a smaller battery pool with fewer batteries to purchase and manage, saving you time and money.
Maximum Wi-Fi power
Get next generation Wi-Fi performance with Wi-Fi 6. Increased bandwidth and efficiency enable a major increase in devices and traffic — without impacting application performance. 2x2 Multiple-User Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) technology also boosts Wi-Fi network capacity and range by allowing access points to communicate with multiple devices simultaneously via pinpoint beamforming.
The perfect combination: touchscreen and keypad
Whether your application requires touch or physical keypad input, we’ve got you covered. Your application can utilize the entire display, while the physical keypad provides the same familiar user input experience your workers have today. In addition, the touchscreen paves the way to migrate to intuitive touch-based interfaces. And with three different options, you can choose the right keypad for your data entry needs —alphanumeric, numeric and functional numeric.
FUTURE PROOF YOUR MOBILITY SOLUTION WITH THE COST-EFFECTIVE MC3300AX — THE NEXT GENERATION IN THE MC3300 SERIES
Bluetooth 5.1 — twice the speed, four times the range, less power
Speeds up to 2 Mbps improve the performance of Bluetooth peripherals, such as ring scanners, printers and headsets. The result? Faster application response times, faster printing and better voice quality. And battery runtime is also extended, since Bluetooth Low Energy reduces power consumption.
Integrated NFC for simple, split-second pairing
With a quick tap, workers can pair the MC3300ax with Zebra’s family of ring scanners, mobile printers, and Bluetooth headsets — your pairing possibilities are endless.
Your choice of standard or extreme range scanning
Short, mid or long range 1D and 2D scanning — the SE4850 scan engine does it all. With its extended range, workers can capture barcodes in hand as close as 3 in./7.62 cm and on your uppermost warehouse racks — as far as 70 ft./21.4 m away. Capture the widest of barcodes at close range with the industry-leading field of view. The standard range 1D/2D SE4770 captures barcodes up to 24 in./60 cm away, and offers a large sweet spot for point-and-shoot simplicity. No matter which scanner you choose, the MC3300ax captures it all — even barcodes that are scratched, dirty, poorly printed or under shrinkwrap.
Capture multiple barcodes with one press of the scan button
Do you need to capture multiple barcodes on one or more labels on an item? The MC3300ax makes it easy. Workers can easily capture all the right barcodes on numerous labels, all with one press of the scan trigger. Data is automatically formatted correctly and sent to the right fields in the right order in your applications, eliminating the need for workers to cover up barcodes.
Capture high-resolution photos and video
The optional 13 MP rear-facing color camera makes it easy to capture photos and videos to document proof of condition, proof of compliance and more.
The ultimate in flexibility and comfort
Two models to meet your scanning needs
Choose the model that best meets your scanning requirements: pistol grip for the most scan intensive tasks or a straight shooter for everyday standard and long range scanning.
Unmatched ergonomics
Zebra’s award-winning design team has done it again — the ergonomically balanced MC3300ax provides all day comfort, even throughout the most scan intensive work day.
Powerful Zebra-only mobility DNA™ software puts the mc3300ax in a class of its own
Easily find misplaced devices
An integrated Bluetooth beacon and support for the latest version of Device Tracker allows users to quickly and easily locate misplaced or missing devices — even if the device is turned off or the battery is depleted.
A lifetime security guard for Android
With LifeGuardTM for AndroidTM, you get the security updates you need to keep your MC3300ax mobile computers secure every day they are in service. Devices can update automatically or you can control the update process via your EMM or Zebra’s StageNow. And built-in support through Android 14 provides superior future-proofing.
15 value-added tools boost workforce productivity
Start capturing and sending barcodes right to your applications, right out of the box with DataWedge. Ensure devices are used only for work with Enterprise Home Screen. Instantly stage a handful or thousands of devices with a quick scan of a barcode or tap on an NFC tag with StageNow. Take your WLAN performance to the next level with WorryFree Wi-Fi. Add basic push-to-talk capabilities with Push-to-Talk (PTT) Express or advanced PTT with Workforce Connect™ PTT Pro, an easy-to-launch subscription service. Plus, turn your MC3300ax into a fully-featured PBX handset with a customized interface with Workforce Connect Voice.
Support your terminal emulation (TE) apps
Want to run your existing TE apps — no backend modification or user training required? With Zebra’s optional tool, TekTerm for Android, you can easily migrate the TE apps running on your legacy WinCE devices to the Android-based MC3300ax. Want to use a different TE? No problem — with support for leading TEs, the choice is yours.
Built-in application development support with Enterprise Browser
Easily create intuitive graphics-based applications that integrate all the data capture capabilities of your Zebra mobile devices. Pre-licensed, this flexible industrial browser enables the easy creation of a single application that can run on different devices with different screen sizes and different operating systems.
