What the TC701 is for
The TC701 is Zebra’s most rugged handheld to date, built for workers who face extreme conditions, from the warehouse floor to the field-service van. Powered by the new Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-6690 processor, it delivers nearly a 300% performance increase over legacy TC7 devices and is engineered to enable high-performance AI on-device. It is the ultra-rugged premium tier, and it anchors the heavy-duty end of the warehouse automation workflows Sirap builds.
Who it is for
Maltese logistics, manufacturing, cold-chain and field operations in the harshest conditions, where extreme impact resistance, thermal shock and water immersion are daily realities. For the mainstream performance tier, see the TC501; for the value tier, the TC22/TC27; for gun-style scanning, the MC9400/MC9450.
Key features
Industry-leading ruggedness. Zebra’s most rugged handheld to date, surviving 3.66 m (12 ft) drops to concrete and up to 75% more tumbles than previous generations.
Unmatched AI performance. An integrated AI engine supports the applications of today and tomorrow, with Zebra’s Frontline AI Suite letting you build AI apps in days rather than months.
Future-proof connectivity. Wi-Fi 7 for the fastest speeds and 5G Release 17 for global cellular coverage.
Advanced data capture. The premium AC670 advanced long-range scanner captures barcodes up to 30 m (100 ft), plus a 50 MP rear camera for documentation.
Superior display. A 6-inch FHD+ AMOLED with 1500 nits for readability in bright sunlight, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2.
Business benefits
Survival in the harshest environments. New thermal-shock testing ensures reliable operation across dramatic temperature changes, such as cold-chain logistics or outdoor field service, and IP68/IP65 sealing makes it virtually dust- and waterproof.
Workflow continuity. Hot-swap battery changes keep applications running, and AI-based audio suppresses background noise for clear voice calls in loud machinery environments.

Choosing the right Zebra mobile computer
Zebra’s portfolio is tiered. The TC2x Series (TC21/TC26) is the cost-effective entry point, an enterprise-grade upgrade from consumer smartphones for small-to-medium businesses and simple retail. The TC5x Series (including the TC501) is the performance tier and the industry standard for most enterprises, balancing ergonomics and ruggedness for retail associates, delivery drivers and clinical staff. The TC7x Series (this TC701) is the ultra-rugged premium line, engineered for the harshest environments such as manufacturing floors and freezer storage where extreme impact resistance and water immersion survival are daily requirements.
What is in scope from Sirap
We confirm the right configuration (memory, scan engine, battery), stage the fleet, supply rugged accessories and support locally with a spare-pool option to keep operations running. We will recommend the performance-tier TC501 honestly where ultra-rugged is more than you need.
Often paired with
- Zebra industrial and mobile printers on the same line.
- Zebra rugged companion scanners.
- Zebra resin ribbons and durable labels for harsh environments.
Frequently asked questions
How rugged is it?
Zebra’s most rugged handheld to date: 3.66 m (12 ft) drops to concrete, up to 75% more tumbles than previous generations, thermal-shock tested, and IP68/IP65 sealed.
TC701 or TC501?
Both use the new Dragonwing platform. Choose the TC701 for the harshest environments (impact, thermal shock, immersion); the TC501 is the lighter performance-tier device for most enterprises.
How far can it scan?
With the AC670 Advanced Range engine, up to 30 m (100 ft); SR500/SR560 engines cover shorter ranges.
