Zebra WS501 Android Wearable Mobile Computer

The Zebra WS501 is the world’s smallest all-in-one Android wearable mobile computer, purpose-built to supercharge productivity in scan-intensive workflows.

With Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3, workers benefit from fast, reliable wireless connections, whether they’re scanning barcodes, accessing inventory data, or collaborating through push-to-talk. Its lightweight, ergonomic form factor is available in two wearable styles—two-finger or back-of-hand—for optimal comfort and flexibility.

Equipped with Zebra’s SE4770 imager, the WS501 captures virtually any 1D or 2D barcode with speed and precision, even on damaged or poorly printed labels. A bright 2-inch AMOLED touchscreen delivers exceptional readability and power efficiency, while programmable buttons and voice-ready features streamline task execution and communication. Hot-swappable batteries and enterprise-grade accessories keep devices powered and ready across shifts. With Zebra DNA tools like Device Diagnostics, SimulScan, and Enterprise Home Screen, the WS501 simplifies management, maximizes uptime, and protects data and device security. Compact yet powerful, the WS501 delivers unmatched performance for teams that need to stay fast, connected, and hands-free.

NOTE: This Zebra WS501 Android Wearable Mobile Computer does NOT include UHF RFID technology. This mobile computer reads 1D and 2D barcodes, but does not have UHF capabilities.
