Wired versus wireless is a separate decision from handheld versus tabletop. A wired scanner is simpler, has one less battery to think about, and suits a single fixed position. A wireless scanner gives staff the freedom to scan anywhere within range, which matters for larger floor plans, inventory counts, or curbside order fulfillment where the scanner needs to leave the counter entirely.

Terminal price is only the starting point.
