Performance and Processing Power
Powered by the Qualcomm QCM4490 processor, the EM45 Series delivers responsive performance for barcode capture, real-time communication, and workforce apps. With 6GB RAM and 128GB UFS storage, the device provides the memory and speed required for multitasking and enterprise mobility. Running Android 13 with support for future upgrades, it’s optimized for stability, efficiency, and long-term deployment planning.
Display and Input Design
The 6.5-inch edge-to-edge FHD+ display offers 2400 × 1080 resolution and touch input support for gloved and wet fingers, allowing seamless operation in retail backrooms, loading docks, or outdoor locations. Its large display ensures excellent readability for forms, navigation, or item lookup, and the front-facing camera supports video calls or self-scanning workflows.
Connectivity and Expansion
Both EM45 variants support Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, USB-C, and GPS/GNSS. The EM45X model adds 5G and 4G LTE support for field-based teams, along with dual SIM capability (nano + eSIM) for flexible network use. NFC comes standard for fast authentication or contactless applications in retail, logistics, and secure environments.
Battery Life and Charging
A 4,400mAh removable battery supports full-shift performance with fast USB-C charging and compatibility with Zebra’s enterprise cradles. The device supports hot-swap functionality for continuous uptime, reducing device rotation needs in high-volume or shift-based workflows.
Security and Data Protection
Zebra’s Mobility DNA and LifeGuard™ for Android provide a complete set of security tools to ensure safe, managed deployments. With biometric options such as fingerprint and face recognition, plus Android Enterprise Recommended (AER) support, the EM45 is secure by design and manageable at scale through leading MDM platforms.

Weighing just 247g, the EM45 is slim enough to fit in a pocket yet durable enough for demanding tasks. It is ideal for:
-
Retail and hospitality – mobile point-of-sale, stock lookup, client engagement
-
Transport and logistics – proof of delivery, parcel scanning, route visibility

Rugged Durability
Despite its sleek design, the EM45 meets MIL-STD-810H and is rated IP68 and IP65 for water and dust resistance. It survives 1.2m drops (1.5m with rugged boot) and up to 500 tumbles from 0.5m. This durability ensures device longevity in fast-paced retail or field environments where rough handling and daily wear are expected.
