The Datalogic Memor 12-17 family comprises full-touch Android handheld mobile computers for barcode scanning, inventory management, assisted sales, delivery and healthcare data capture. Both models combine a 6-inch touchscreen, integrated 1D/2D scanner and Wi-Fi 6E, while Memor 17 adds 5G connectivity for work beyond the site network.
Memor 12 and Memor 17 let workers scan a barcode, view the associated record and enter information on the same device. Physical scan buttons, Green Spot read confirmation and enterprise charging options make them useful where scanning is a regular part of the job.
Within MarvelTech’s range of rugged mobile computers, this family suits teams that need a slim touchscreen device for stock checks, customer service and mobile task management. Choose the model around network coverage, application requirements and working conditions.

The integrated imager reads linear and two-dimensional barcodes. DeepSight decoding supports scanning under variable lighting, including challenging labels, although results depend on print quality, damage, barcode size and working distance.
Green Spot projects a visible indication onto the label after a successful decode. This confirms that the scanner has read the code; the business application must separately confirm whether the item, order or patient record has been accepted.
The family is GS1 Digital Link-ready. To use the information carried by these retail barcodes, the receiving application must recognise and process the decoded data. Test representative labels and screens before selecting the device for a rollout.
Both models support Wi-Fi 6E, including the 6 GHz band where permitted and supported by the network. Memor 17 adds cellular connectivity for delivery routes, outdoor operations and movement between sites. Select the regional model against the intended mobile operator and coverage requirements.
Multi-side NFC supports close-range contactless interactions such as identification, ticket validation and payment workflows. Payment acceptance requires a compatible application and payment-provider approval for the device and market.
For reading multiple tagged assets from a distance, assess dedicated RFID systems. Integrated NFC does not provide the same capability as a UHF RFID reader.
The 4,000 mAh battery is replaceable, while battery-management tools allow charging policies to be configured. Runtime depends on scanning frequency, display brightness, radios and application load; validate it against the intended shift rather than relying on capacity alone.
Optional accessories include charging docks, spare-battery chargers, protective boots, holsters and trigger handles. Check each accessory against the device configuration, particularly whether a dock accepts the protective boot and whether it provides charging only or data connectivity.
Illustrative configuration: A four-device station requiring wired Ethernet needs a charging/data dock rather than a charge-only dock. Datalogic lists the four-slot Ethernet dock with a separate power supply, regional power cord and Memor 12-17 adapters for devices used without protective boots.
Datalogic’s current product information describes a 4+4-year hardware and software support programme and an Android upgrade roadmap through Android 19. Specify the supplied Android version, update entitlement and support end dates in the quotation; the roadmap describes future platform support rather than the software installed on delivery.
Datalogic Mobility Suite provides tools for device configuration, barcode input and deployment. EASEOFCARE coverage and security-update arrangements should be selected for the required contract term and service scope.
Choose Memor 12 when staff mainly operate within a store, stockroom, warehouse or other managed wireless network. It provides the same standard-range scanning approach and touchscreen format without an integrated cellular connection.
Choose Memor 17 when workers need access to business systems away from Wi-Fi, including last-mile delivery, transport and field workflows. Include cellular service, regional network compatibility and location requirements in the configuration review. Storage options include 64 GB and 128 GB.
Datalogic lists healthcare configurations within the family, including Memor 17 HC. Select the exact healthcare part number against the required cleaning procedure, accessories and clinical application. A healthcare model designation alone does not establish compatibility with a hospital’s software or disinfection protocol.
The family is most useful when workers need both barcode capture and an application screen. Heavy keyboard entry, scanning distant rack labels or operation outside the published temperature range may favour a different terminal.
The Datalogic Memor 30 is a relevant Wi-Fi alternative when scanning distance matters more than a slim body. Memor 12 uses the standard-range DE2121-DL engine; Memor 30 offers standard-range and extended-range configurations, with the latter advertised for reading up to 10 m under suitable barcode conditions.
That maximum is not a working distance for every label. Compare both devices using the same barcode size, print quality, lighting and operator position, and specify the extended-range engine if distant scanning is required.
Compatibility depends on the application, supported Android version and method of receiving barcode data. Datalogic’s configurable barcode input and development tools support integration, but the device does not include a universal connection to every business system. Confirm login, scan formatting, record updates and any required licences with the software provider.
Offline operation depends on the application. If staff must keep working without coverage, verify that it stores transactions locally, synchronises them after reconnection and handles duplicate or conflicting records appropriately.
Battery replacement and application-preserving swapping are separate requirements. Datalogic lists SafeSwap on selected Memor 17 configurations, so request this explicitly and confirm the approved replacement procedure for the quoted device.
MarvelTech supplies mobile computing and barcode solutions and offers equipment maintenance and support contracts. Request a configuration review covering the device, charging arrangement, accessories and required service scope.
Pricing depends on model, storage, healthcare configuration, quantity and accessories, with application licences, deployment work and support included where agreed. Ask for confirmation of availability, lead time, warranty and service coverage for the delivery location.
Send MarvelTech your device quantity, application name, sample barcodes and required scanning distances, working environment, Wi-Fi or cellular needs, shift length and preferred charging setup. Include any healthcare cleaning requirements, payment application or existing devices being replaced so the quotation addresses the complete workflow.
Memor 12 provides Wi-Fi connectivity, while Memor 17 adds integrated 5G for work beyond the site network. Both have Wi-Fi 6E, a 6-inch touchscreen and standard-range barcode scanning. Choose Memor 12 for stock checks, picking and assisted sales within reliable Wi-Fi coverage; consider Memor 17 for deliveries or movement between sites. For cellular deployments, specify the destination country and intended mobile operator.
The Halogen DE2121-DL imager reads supported 1D and 2D barcodes, with DeepSight decoding for challenging reading conditions. Test representative labels at the required distance, particularly where print is damaged, small or low-contrast. Green Spot confirms successful barcode decoding; the application must separately confirm that the item or transaction was accepted. GS1 Digital Link workflows also require software that can interpret the captured data.
Consider Memor 30X when workers need to scan distant rack or pallet labels. Memor 12-17 uses a standard-range engine; the extended-range Memor 30X configuration in the Datalogic Memor 30 family is advertised for reading up to 10 m under suitable barcode conditions. Specify the 30X configuration and test actual labels: the maximum distance does not apply to every barcode size or print quality.
It can work with compatible Android applications, but integration depends on your software’s supported Android versions and barcode input method. Datalogic Mobility Suite provides device configuration and barcode input tools; business applications and device-management subscriptions require separate confirmation. Before rollout, test login, scan formatting, quantity entry and transaction submission. If coverage is intermittent, verify that the application stores work locally and synchronises records correctly after reconnection.
Datalogic’s current Memor 12-17 roadmap extends through Android 19, while the installed version depends on the supplied device and firmware. Specify the delivery version, application compatibility, security-update entitlement and calendar support end dates in the quotation. The advertised 4+4-year support programme describes the product lifecycle; confirm the included coverage and any separately purchased EASEOFCARE or security-update services for your deployment.
A full shift needs validation with your workload: the replaceable 4,000 mAh battery’s runtime depends on scanning frequency, screen brightness, radio use and application load. Datalogic lists SafeSwap on selected Memor 17 configurations. If preserving application state during replacement is essential, specify that requirement and confirm the supported procedure for the quoted part number. Include spare batteries and charging capacity for successive shifts.
The integrated NFC reader does not provide UHF RFID bulk-reading capability. NFC supports close-range interactions with compatible cards and tags; reading multiple stock tags from a distance requires an appropriate UHF reader and application. Review RFID systems for inventory and asset tracking if this is a requirement, and confirm reader, mounting and software compatibility with the selected Memor configuration.
Its multi-side NFC hardware supports contactless payment workflows when paired with a compatible payment solution. Payment acceptance depends on the application, payment provider and approval for the exact device and market. Before purchasing for assisted sales or payment on delivery, ask the provider to confirm supported firmware, transaction requirements and any additional licences or services.
Check the exact part number and accessory configuration against the exposure expected on site. Datalogic’s catalogue lists IP65 protection, with IP67 or IP68 immersion ratings appearing on different configurations. Drop and tumble specifications also have defined test conditions and may depend on a protective boot. An ingress rating alone does not establish suitability for cleaning chemicals, condensation or operation outside the specified temperature range.
For repeated clinical disinfection, assess a dedicated healthcare configuration such as Memor 17 HC. Datalogic describes its housing and accessories as disinfectant-ready, but the approved cleaning agents and procedure must match your facility’s protocol. Validate wristband, medication and sample labels within the intended clinical application; successful decoding alone does not confirm the correct patient, medicine or record.
Choose USB-C, wired docks or wireless charging docks around how devices are shared, stored and connected between tasks. Specify a charging/data dock if wired Ethernet is required; a charge-only dock does not provide that connection. Check protective-boot compatibility and include the required adapters, power supplies and regional cords. Datalogic’s optional trigger handle and forearm holder require the protective boot for mounting.
Provide device quantity, application name, sample barcodes, scanning distances, operating conditions, Wi-Fi or cellular requirements, shift length and charging needs. Include healthcare cleaning requirements, payment software and existing accessories you want to retain. Ask for itemised hardware, software and deployment costs, plus availability and lead time. If ongoing cover is needed, request the applicable scope and terms of MarvelTech’s equipment maintenance and support contracts.
