The Datalogic Memor K is a compact Android handheld mobile computer for barcode scanning, inventory checks, retail fulfilment and warehouse receiving. Its 4-inch touchscreen, backlit 24-key keypad and integrated 1D/2D imager support workflows that combine scanning with quantity or location entry.
Memor K suits tasks where operators scan an item, enter a quantity and confirm a stock movement. Physical keys provide tactile input for short references and numerical entries, while the touchscreen handles application navigation.
This page covers the original Memor K with Android 9, a 2 GHz octa-core processor, 3 GB RAM and 32 GB flash storage. Before selecting this older-generation platform for a new deployment, confirm application compatibility, available security maintenance and device availability.
The device measures 160 × 71 × 17 mm and weighs 268 g including its battery. Its 4-inch capacitive display has an 800 × 480 resolution and Dragontrail hardened glass. Check that your application’s forms, buttons and picking screens remain usable at this size.
The backlit rubber keypad has 24 keys, supplemented by two side scan keys and two programmable side keys. It suits repeated quantity entry and location confirmation; assess key spacing and touchscreen response with the gloves used on site.
The integrated VGA area imager uses a 640 × 480 sensor to read printed labels and barcodes displayed on mobile screens. Supported formats include standard linear barcodes, GS1 DataBar, QR Code, Data Matrix and PDF417.
Datalogic Green Spot projects a visual confirmation after a successful decode. This confirms that the barcode was read; acceptance of the item, location or transaction depends on the receiving application.
Test representative labels at the required scanning distances, including your smallest codes, reflective packaging and damaged labels. Code size, contrast, print quality and working distance affect readability, so support for a barcode format alone does not establish suitability for every label.
Memor K supports 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi, including 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5 with Bluetooth Low Energy, and NFC for compatible proximity applications. Its USB-C interface provides charging and USB 2.0 High Speed data communication. The original Memor K has no integrated cellular connection, so live access to business systems depends on available network connectivity.
Connection to a warehouse management system (WMS), enterprise resource planning system (ERP) or point-of-sale platform requires a compatible Android application or supported browser interface. Confirm Android 9 support with the software provider, then test login, barcode input, keypad navigation and transaction submission on the device.
Datalogic documents Scan2Deploy Studio and DXU for configuration and maintenance. If central device management is required, check support for the exact firmware, management agent and enrolment method before rollout. Application and device-management licences should be quoted separately where required.
Illustrative receiving workflow: an operator scans the delivery reference and product barcode, enters the received quantity on the keypad and confirms the storage location. A configured application compares the entry with the purchase order and submits the stock update. These checks belong to the software workflow; the scanner supplies the decoded identifiers.
Memor K has IP54 sealing for dust protection and resistance to splashing water. Datalogic specifies drops onto concrete from 1.2 m, increasing to 1.5 m with the optional rubber boot. The stated operating temperature range is −20°C to +50°C.
IP54 is not an immersion or water-jet rating. Where washdown, higher drop resistance or specialised warehouse scanning is required, compare other rugged mobile computers against the actual operating conditions.
The removable 3,800 mAh lithium-ion battery supports replacement between work sessions. Assess runtime using a representative workload: scanning frequency, display brightness, wireless activity, temperature and battery condition affect how long a charge lasts.
Documented optional accessories include the single-slot dock, part number 94A150111; rubber boot, 94ACC0313; and belt holster, 94ACC0312. Specify spare batteries, a compatible power supply and the required charging positions in the enquiry, with accessory availability and package contents confirmed in the quote.
The Datalogic Memor K20-25 is the closest newer keypad-based alternative. It retains a 4-inch display and 24-key layout while changing the Android platform, memory, scan engine and battery.

Consider the original Memor K when maintaining an existing, validated Android 9 workflow. For a new fleet requiring a newer operating system or mobile data, assess the K20 or K25 and confirm the supplied Android build, upgrade availability and security-support terms. Check accessory part numbers individually when migrating between generations.
Offline scanning and data storage require application support. The software must retain transactions locally and synchronise them after reconnection, with appropriate handling of duplicate entries or conflicting stock updates. Test this behaviour along the working route before deployment.
Datalogic identifies pharmacy inventory and laboratory specimen traceability as applications. Suitability depends on the software, label readability and cleaning procedure. IP54 sealing does not establish resistance to a particular disinfectant or suitability for sterile areas; confirm the permitted cleaning agents and procedures before selection.
MarvelTech supplies mobile computers and supports barcode and automatic-identification projects. Request a review of the device, application requirements and charging arrangements, with any configuration, integration work and support scope identified in the quotation.
Pricing depends on device quantity, accessories, software licences and agreed services. Ask MarvelTech to confirm availability, lead time, applicable warranty and support coverage for the delivery country before ordering.
Send your required quantity, application name and version, barcode samples, scanning distances, Wi-Fi conditions, shift length and details of any existing handhelds being replaced. Include your delivery location and required date so MarvelTech can assess the original Memor K against a suitable replacement configuration.
Memor K suits receiving, stock counts, replenishment and picking workflows that combine barcode scanning with short quantity or location entries. Its backlit 24-key keypad provides tactile input, while the 4-inch touchscreen handles application navigation. Assess your actual forms and key sequences before choosing it: frequent numerical entry suits this format, but detailed dashboards or lengthy descriptions may justify a larger display.
The original Memor K runs Android 9, so selection should depend on confirmed software compatibility and support requirements. It may suit an established workflow already validated on that platform. For a new fleet, obtain confirmation of application support, available security maintenance and device availability over the intended deployment period; Android compatibility alone does not establish ongoing update coverage.
The original Memor K has Android 9, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB storage and a 3,800 mAh battery. The newer Datalogic Memor K20 and K25 use Android 13, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB storage and a 4,850 mAh battery, with IP64 rather than IP54 sealing. K20 uses Wi-Fi; K25 adds data-only 4G LTE in supported countries. Revalidate applications and accessories when changing generations.
Yes. Its integrated area imager reads standard 1D barcodes and formats including QR Code, Data Matrix and PDF417, from printed labels and mobile screens. Test small codes, reflective packaging and damaged labels under working conditions. Datalogic Green Spot confirms successful decoding; confirmation that the correct item was selected or a transaction was saved must come from the business application.
Memor K is better assessed for nearby product and location scanning than selected for high-rack work without testing. Its VGA sensor resolution does not specify a universal reading distance; barcode size, contrast and condition affect reach. For distant rack or pallet labels, compare the optional Extra Long Range imager on the Datalogic Skorpio X5 using your actual labels and operator positions.
A compatible Android application or supported browser interface is required to connect Memor K to a warehouse management system (WMS) or enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Test authentication, barcode input, keypad navigation and transaction submission on Android 9. Datalogic’s Scan2Deploy Studio configures devices; it does not provide inventory-management functionality. Identify business-software licences, device-management licences and integration work separately in the quotation.
The original Memor K has no integrated cellular connection or SIM-based mobile data. It supports dual-band Wi-Fi, including 802.11ac, for network access. Working offline requires an application that stores transactions locally and synchronises them after reconnection. Test coverage gaps along the working route, including how the software handles interrupted submissions, duplicate scans and conflicting stock updates.
Memor K has IP54 protection against dust ingress and splashing water, with a specified operating range of −20°C to +50°C. Datalogic specifies drops onto concrete from 1.2 m, increasing to 1.5 m with the optional rubber boot. These ratings do not cover immersion or washdown. For cold-room use, also assess condensation, glove operation and battery performance rather than relying on temperature limits alone.
Shift coverage must be checked against the actual workload; the removable 3,800 mAh battery does not establish a fixed runtime. Scanning frequency, screen brightness, wireless activity, temperature and battery condition affect endurance. Run a representative shift trial, then size spare-battery and charging arrangements around the measured result, including time needed to save work and change batteries.
Specify a compatible USB-C charging arrangement or the optional single-slot dock, part number 94A150111, together with the required power supply and cable. The optional rubber boot, 94ACC0313, supports the higher stated drop rating; belt holster 94ACC0312 suits carrying between tasks. Confirm package contents, spare-battery availability and accessory part numbers explicitly, particularly when replacing another Memor model.
Datalogic lists pharmacy inventory and laboratory specimen traceability among Memor K applications. Suitability depends on readable labels, compatible software and an acceptable cleaning procedure. Test representative small or curved labels, and confirm permitted cleaning agents against the facility’s requirements. IP54 protection does not establish disinfectant resistance, suitability for sterile areas or validation of a specimen-tracking workflow.
Provide the device quantity, delivery country, required date, application name and version, barcode samples, scanning distances, shift length and operating conditions. Include existing device and accessory part numbers if expanding a fleet. Ask MarvelTech to itemise hardware, charging equipment, software and any agreed configuration and support services, with availability, lead time and warranty coverage confirmed for the proposed package.
