Description

The Zebra TC27 is a compact, Android-based touch computer designed for mobile teams that need enterprise-grade connectivity in a lightweight, smartphone-style device.

With optional 5G, CBRS, and Wi-Fi 6E support, the TC27 is ideal for field operations, mobile point-of-sale, access control, and staff communications in industries like retail, hospitality, logistics, and events.

Despite its sleek profile, the TC27 is purpose-built for work. It runs Android 13 on a Qualcomm® Snapdragon processor, features a 6-inch Full HD display with Gorilla Glass, and offers integrated scanning via Zebra’s SE4710 or SE55 engines. The device is drop-rated to 5 feet, IP68-sealed against dust and water, and supports hot-swappable batteries for long days in the field.

This version supports CBRS Band 48 and 5G data connectivity.

Key Features

  • Supports 5G Sub-6 GHz, CBRS Band 48 (US only), and Wi-Fi 6E for reliable high-speed data transfer across private and public networks.

Scanning & Input

  • Integrated with Zebra’s SE4710 or SE55 scan engines for high-performance 1D/2D barcode capture at standard or extended range.

Display & Physical Design

  • Equipped with a 6-inch Full HD+ display with 450-nit brightness and Gorilla Glass for scratch resistance.
  • Compact, lightweight design that withstands 5-foot drops and is IP68-rated for water and dust resistance.

Power & Battery Options

  • Choose from standard (3,800 mAh) or extended (5,200 mAh) removable batteries.
  • Optional Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) battery configurations support advanced power management and tracking.

Software Ecosystem

Connectivity Requirements

To operate the Zebra TC27 on CBRS or cellular networks, you’ll need:

  • A nano SIM or eSIM activated on a private LTE or 5G network, or a compatible public carrier plan that supports Band 48.
  • Access to Zebra Mobility DNA Enterprise or other licensing may be required for advanced software tools such as device staging, push-to-talk, and remote management.

Deploying touch computers on a private network involves more than just turning them on — from SIM provisioning and profile configuration to staging, management, and rollout coordination.
