Speed is average and if you scan especially from a distance it's bad! Range is very poor, it disconnects constantly, we have it connected via Bluetooth to a PC. Of course, we are scanning in the warehouse which is just behind the checkout, there are at most 10-15 meters and one wall in between. Easy to use, sturdy construction, and easy to program if you want it to perform certain processes during the click - scan. Infinite feedback and content for whatever you want, it's Zebra, makes sense! For simple use, it's perfect, but for extreme situations, I do not recommend it...
