Zebra ET401 – a tablet that takes the workday in its stride

Most consumer tablets aren't built for a busy café counter, a stock room full of dust, or a workshop where hands are rarely clean. The Zebra ET401 is. Its IP68 rating means water and dust aren't something you need to think about — you just get on with the job.

Screen and scanning

The 8-inch Full HD display (1920 × 1200 pixels) stays clearly readable even in direct sunlight, thanks to 600 cd/m² brightness. The capacitive touchscreen responds to gloved hands and wet fingers, so staff don't have to stop and dry off before tapping. The SE4100 2D imager reads barcodes quickly — including creased labels and low-quality prints — without needing to line up the scan precisely. For a retail counter or goods-in desk, that speed adds up over a shift.

Connectivity without compromise

Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) keeps the connection stable even when the wireless network is busy — think Saturday afternoon on the shop floor with staff, card machines, and a queue of customers all competing for bandwidth. Bluetooth, NFC, and USB-C round out the connection options, so the ET401 works with POS systems, payment terminals, and peripherals without needing extra adaptors. A Micro SD card slot lets you expand storage if needed.

Battery that lasts the shift

The 6,100 mAh battery is removable and swaps out in seconds without tools. Keep a spare charged behind the counter and the device never needs to sit on a cable during opening hours. For long shifts or multi-site operations, that matters more than a headline battery number.

Performance under load

A Qualcomm Octa Core processor running at 2.0 GHz, paired with 8 GB of RAM, keeps apps responsive when several are running at once. 128 GB of internal storage covers business applications and locally saved data without filling up quickly.

Android with Google Mobile Services

GMS certification means every app from the Google Play Store works straight out of the box — no side-loading, no compatibility questions. Staff who already use Android on their own phones will be up to speed within minutes, not after a training session.

Cameras

The 16 MP rear camera handles documentation, product photography, and video calls. The 8 MP front camera gives a clear picture for remote meetings or video support calls.
