Brother DSmobile 820W

 

The Brother DSmobile 820W portable scanner can scan to an SD card and connect to your mobile device by Wi-Fi to upload the scans.

Portable. Scans with or without a computer. Connects by Wi-Fi, letting you see scanned images on your smartphone.

Doesn't do a good job with business cards or expense receipts.

If you're looking for a scanner to handle business cards or expense receipts, this is obviously the wrong choice. The Visioneer Mobility in particular handles business cards well, which is one of the reasons it's the Editors' Choice. However, if what...

Great Scanner

 

I had another brand Receipt Scanner and replaced with the Brother 820W. I could not be happier. Great piece of equipment and woks like a charm. Very good battery life, WiFi very handy. The NEAT receipt scanner RECEIPT software works a tad better at...

I am a little technically challenged so it took me a bit to get it set up. But now I use it almost every day and I love it!! It's so easy and SO much faster then scanning on my printer!!!

Much better than I expected

 

I purchased this item for copying old photos for genealogical purposes. Because of its portability and long lasting lithium battery I can take the unit to relatives who don't want to give you their photos with the wonder of ever getting them back. The...

Hard to operate

 

Very easy to scan the paper through only took forever to try and bring it up to the screen. Had tried 60 times. Ended up with 60 scanned papers in my computer. Did not like it.

Not the best product

 

I installed the cd that came with my product and when I clicked on the icon it didn't recognize my scanner couldn't find a certain driver (twain). For the price it was fairly reasonable though I'm disappointed it didn't stand up as being dependable as...

Great Portable Scanner

 

I needed a portable scanner to scan thousands of documents and expenditure receipts in preparation for a divorce. It scans all sizes or paper (great for register receipts or long legal documents) quickly. I found two drawbacks to the scanner: the...

so far so good

 

I have only been able to use this scanner three times but it worked fine to make PDF files. It is somewhat of a learning curve to get the documents to come out right and I had to repeat some due to wrong settings. I have it set up with my wireless...

Good Mobile Scanner

 

I searched the web for a decent mobile scanner and Argos trumped John Lewis and other online retailers on cost! Quick and easy to setup - However you need to download software if you don't have a DVD drive. This model came with WiFi and a battery pack...
