Struggling with outdated Windows vehicle mounts that keep breaking down? The Zebra VC8300 Rugged Tablet lets you replace costly legacy hardware with a single, Android-powered solution that thrives in the toughest warehouse, yard or freezer environments.
Zebra VC8300 Rugged Tablet, 8" Capacitive Touch, 4 GB/32 GB | VC83-08SOCABAABA-I
The VC8300 is an ultra-rugged, vehicle-mounted computer built for Android 8.1. Its 8-inch capacitive display delivers 1280 × 720 pixels of clear, bright visuals even in low-light or glare-filled settings. Powered by a Snapdragon 660 octa-core processor at 2.2 GHz and backed by 4 GB RAM, the tablet handles demanding logistics apps and real-time data capture without lag.
With 32 GB of internal flash storage you can store maps, manuals and offline data directly on the device, reducing reliance on external servers. The IP66 rating guarantees protection against dust, water jets and extreme temperatures from -30 °C to 50 °C, so you can trust the VC8300 to keep working when the environment gets harsh.
Connectivity is covered with Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), Bluetooth 5.0 and BLE, enabling fast wireless updates and seamless pairing with scanners, printers or wearable devices. Two RS-232 ports and a USB 2.0 slot let you integrate legacy peripherals, while a 3.5 mm headphone jack provides clear audio for voice prompts or hands-free communication.
The tablet’s AZERTY keyboard layout and mono speaker are optimized for noisy, fast-paced operations. Weighing just 3.7 kg and measuring 276 mm × 238 mm × 90 mm, it fits snugly into most vehicle mounts. Drop-in replacement is simple - just slide the unit into the existing bracket and power up.
Benefits
Switching to the VC8300 reduces total cost of ownership by reusing your current accessories and eliminating the need for multiple device types.
