The Magellan 1500i from Datalogic, is a small but high-performing presentation scanner. Perfect for retail, pharmacies, customer service desks, and self-checkout kiosks, it saves valuable counter space while still offering a wide reading area. Thanks to its built-in accelerometer, the scanner automatically detects when it is picked up and switches from hands-free to handheld mode, making operation seamless and intuitive.

Despite its compact footprint, the Magellan™ 1500i delivers maximum performance in minimum space. With a footprint of just 8 × 9 cm, it keeps counters clear and checkout areas looking clean and professional. Designed for flexibility, the optional kiosk bracket makes integration into self-checkout systems quick and seamless. Compact, stylish, and versatile, the Magellan 1500i is the perfect fit for modern retail environments.

The Magellan™ 1500i combines style and practicality. Available in black or white, its clean design fits seamlessly into any checkout or kiosk. The cable is routed away from the unit to keep counters tidy, while multiple stand options give retailers the flexibility to place the scanner where it works best. The scanner has two modes: Stand Mode for hands-free scanning and Handheld Mode for when you pick it up. Stand mode supports fast, hands-free scanning. Handheld Mode is automatically activated by the built-in accelerometer and gives you targeted scanning with Datalogic’s Green Spot Technology for good-read confirmation. With its IP52-rated enclosure and drop resistance up to 1.2 meters, the Magellan 1500i is as tough as it is stylish — delivering reliable performance and smoother checkouts, day after day.

The scanner can quickly and easily read 1D, 2D, and Digimarc barcodes, including truncated, poorly printed, and damaged labels, or on smartphone screens, for future-ready performance and maximum decoding flexibility. It also supports GS1 Digital Link and OCR (Optical Character Recognition), which enables the scanner to capture not only barcodes but also printed text such as serial numbers, lot codes, or expiration dates. This top-performing scanner will adjust its illumination and depth of field to read barcodes quickly.

The Magellan 1500i is equipped with adaptive illumination, which eliminates flicker and reduces brightness when it's not needed, helping to reduce eye strain for operators. The illumination adjusts automatically to optimize for the barcodes in its field of view. You don't need to make any adjustments when you switch between scanning printed and mobile barcodes. The scanner's 100% LED lighting is also safer and more reliable than laser-based scanners. With adaptive LED illumination, the Magellan 1500i reduces eye strain, adjusts automatically to printed and mobile codes, and delivers reliable performance shift after shift.
