Sirap, your Malta partner for Zebra, with local supply, staging, accessories and support.

This product has been replaced by the Zebra TC201. For new orders we supply the TC201, which takes most TC22 and TC27 accessories, including the batteries and charging cradles. We still support TC22 and TC27 fleets with spares and accessories.

What the TC22 / TC27 is for

The TC22/TC27 is Zebra’s value rugged mobile computer: a familiar smartphone-style device that workers pick up without training, but built for work, with enterprise scanning, all-day battery and serious durability, at a price close to a consumer phone. It suits retail, hospitality, the warehouse, field service and entertainment, anywhere you want mobile data capture without paying for the top-tier devices. It fits the warehouse automation and labelling and barcoding workflows Sirap builds.

Who it is for

Maltese retail, hospitality, logistics and field-service operations that want enterprise mobility on a sensible budget. Choose the TC22 where Wi-Fi coverage is enough, and the TC27 where workers need 5G or cellular away from the building. For ultra-rugged or extended-range scanning, step up to the TC53/TC58 or TC73/TC78, and we will tell you when that is worth it.

Built to perform

Power for every app. A next-generation processor with twice the performance of the prior generation, plus class-leading memory and storage, runs all your apps at once.

The best wireless. 5G and Wi-Fi 6/6E (TC27) deliver wired-like speeds inside and out, with CBRS and private 5G support; the TC22 covers Wi-Fi 6. Bluetooth 5.2 improves audio at lower power.

Enterprise scanning. Capture barcodes in nearly half the time of a phone camera with the SE4710 1D/2D standard engine or the SE55 Advanced Range engine with Intellifocus, scanning in-hand or on the top shelf.

A 6-inch display you can read anywhere. A bright 450-nit FHD+ screen is easy to read indoors and outside.

Built to last

Genuinely rugged. Waterproof, dustproof, drop-proof and tumble-proof, with IP68 sealing and drop/tumble testing beyond MIL-STD 810H, and Corning Gorilla Glass protecting the display and scanner window.

All-day, swappable power. A standard 3800 mAh battery for a full shift or an extended 5200 mAh for multi-shift, both removable so the device never leaves service to charge.

Comfortable in the hand. Nearly 10% thinner than its predecessor with a contoured grip for any hand size.

Easy to manage and extend

Mobility DNA built in. No-cost Mobility DNA Professional adds enterprise features to standard Android, fast staging, app control, code-free barcode entry, security patches and diagnostics; an optional Enterprise licence adds multi-barcode capture, custom keyboards, Workstation Connect and device tracking.

Contactless and payments. Built-in tap-to-pay support plus Apple VAS and Google SmartTap for tickets, loyalty, gift cards and wallet passes.

One device, many roles. Turn it into a workstation or hybrid POS with Workstation Connect, a fast RFID reader with RFD40/RFD90 sleds, or a two-way radio and PBX handset with push-to-talk, reducing the number of devices to buy and manage.

What is in scope from Sirap

We confirm the right model (TC22 or TC27), scan engine, memory and battery for your workflow, stage the devices with your apps and network settings, supply cradles, trigger handles and other accessories, and support them locally. We will recommend the TC22 over the TC27 where you do not need cellular, rather than oversell.

Often paired with

• Zebra mobile printers for on-the-spot labels and receipts.
• RFD40/RFD90 RFID sleds to turn the device into an inventory reader.
• Zebra labels and companion scanners.

Frequently asked questions

TC22 or TC27?
The TC22 is Wi-Fi only; the TC27 adds 5G and cellular for workers who leave Wi-Fi coverage. Otherwise they share the same platform, scanning and durability. Choose by whether you need connectivity away from the building.

How is this different from the TC53/TC58?
The TC2x is the value tier; the TC5x adds a faster processor, Wi-Fi 6E, brighter display and longer-range scanning. For most retail and light-warehouse tasks the TC22/TC27 is plenty; for heavier or longer-range use, consider the TC53/TC58.

Can it replace consumer phones we use now?
Yes, and it usually pays back: enterprise scanning is far faster than a phone camera, the device is rugged and serviceable, and Mobility DNA simplifies management.
