TC73 Mobile Computer


The Wi-Fi 6E Mobile Computer, Re-Imagined for the New Age of Mobility

Designed for workers who spend their days inside your facility, the TC73 offers everything you need to support the new generation of mobile solutions—Wi-Fi 6E for fast and dependable wireless connections; a bright, easy-to-see 6-inch Full HD display; more power, memory and storage to support demanding apps; and an extended range scanner that can capture barcodes in hand and as far away as 40 ft./12.2 m away. And while it’s more rugged, it’s nearly 20% thinner, lighter and more ergonomic.
