This device offers multiple scanning options, keypad options, uses a high quality processor, and holds up to 6-foot drop, temperature, and tumble tests. Overall the MC9190 is a best in class mobile computer for barcodes and RFID for all types of businesses.
The Intermec CK70 has had several enhancements over the years including integrated RFID capabilities, a move to a better processor, and “flexible network radio” which enables seamless transitioning between different carrier networks. Similar to the MC9190, the CK70 is a handheld device with larger keys and keypad options. There is a scanner, 5 megapixel camera, bluetooth, and powerful battery with what Intermec says, “the industry’s longest battery life”.
The CK70 has a slightly smaller width and is lighter in weight than the MC9190.
