Warehouse and other industrial environments are no problem for the durable Falcon X3. The rugged design of the mobile computer protects it from drops of 6-feet to concrete, and rubberized sealing prevents dust and water from getting in and harming internal components. Adding overmolding and sealing also insulates the Falcon X3, allowing it to operate in temperatures as low as -4° F. For demanding businesses, such as warehouses or large retailers, the Datalogic Falcon X3 is a great choice.

Keyboard/keypad layouts can make or break the usability of a handheld terminal, and so Datalogic offers the Falcon X3+ with two different layouts, a numeric version with 29 keys, and an alphanumeric version with a separate numeric keypad. The former lends itself to rapid numeric data input with its large keys, the latter is more conducive for frequent text entry. Each version also has navigational keys and a large orange scan key. Polycarbonate key caps and metal snap domes guarantee the kind of longevity and reliability demanded by the X3's third party logistics clientele.
The Falcon X3+ is about nine inches long, 3.5 inches wide in the display part of the device, and a maximum of just over two inches thick. It weighs about 22 ounces without the pistol grip, and about 25 ounces with the grip. That's quite compact and light for a device in this class. The X3+'s resistive touch screen display measures 3.5 inches diagonally. It uses transflective technology that provides good daylight readability. The resolution remains at 240 x 320 pixel QVGA for Windows CE-based versions. Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 versions come with full 480 x 640 pixel VGA now, something RuggedPCReview had suggested in an earlier analysis of the original Falcon X3.
The Datalogic Falcon has always been an exceptionally rugged device, and the new X3+ is incrementally even more so. While the X3+ still has the very wide operating temperature range of -4 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit of its predecessor, making it suitable for use in almost any environment, including commercial freezers, sealing is now at the IP65 level (as we also suggested in our earlier analysis). That means the unit is totally dust-proof, and now also able to handle low pressure water jets from all directions. This'll do not only for warehouse duty, but also for virtually all outdoors applications. The drop spec is an impressive six feet; few handhelds fall from that high.
