Can this scanner bluetooth pair and work with a Windows 7 or 8 tablet? Can it connect via bluetooth without the charging base present for mobile use?

This scanner must be used with the base. If you connect the base via a usb to your tablet or router, you can make it work that way.

If the tablet has Bluetooth capability you are able to connect the scanner to the tablet without going through the base. You would still need the base to be able to charge the scanner but not communication. If you have any additional questions feel free to contact Marcus at 888-237-8525.

Like the previous user, I am not sure. I use the Bluetooth only with my Surface Pro tablet, which comes with built in Bluetooth. You must turn the blue tooth on, set the radio to listen to new devices and connect both devices. Do not forget to have the mouse unplugged and turned on while you are doing this. If you have windows 8 or 8.1 the settings to do this are very easily found on the charms that appear on the right of the screen.

I don't know. I use a Dell Latitude 10 Windows 8 tablet. Works fine. It SHOULD work with any Bluetooth connectable device. Microsoft site might have definitive answer.

I only connected it to a Xperia phone and tablet as well as a windows 8.1 laptop. And although the specifications say that it is compatible to any bluetooth enabled cellphone, but it doesn't say anything about which functions won't work since it uses the Sony exclusive "Smart Connect" android application.

I use it on my Asus Win 8 tablet via Bluetooth. I assume it will as many android perps say it works. But I can also see Google blocking Microsoft products too. It is returnable too.

This works via bluetooth so as long as your tablet can pair to a bluetooth device you should be okay. I have not tried with a tablet but it has worked with a number of laptops.

I own this laptop and it does not have Bluetooth. It does have Windows 8.1 which is a huge downside to ownership.

You can't power or charge the scanner via the USB cable. It uses replaceable (not rechargable) AA batteries. The Bluetooth version uses an inline rechargable battery that can be both powered and charged by the supplied USB cable.

am hoping that i'm not steering you wrong here but, so far, i've found that this thing has linked easily to every bluetooth capable device i own (tablet, laptop, smartphone). after reading your question, i looked up the specs/description on your device as i wasn't familiar with it - can't imagine why it would not link up and work well for you.

There is a little connector on the bottom of the tablet that connects to the keyboard- the keyboard is only usable when the tablet is physically docked. It does not use Bluetooth to connect. There are magnetic clamps that click in to place when the tablet is docked with the keyboard and a button must be pressed at the base of the docked tablet for it to be released. If you want to use a Bluetooth keyboard, however, a GREAT one is Logitech K810, made for Windows 8 tablets and sold by Amazon at: http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Bluetooth-Illuminated-Keyboard-Smartphones/dp/B0099SMFVQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1350675549&sr=8-1&keywords=Logitech+K810

Yes, it will work with any Bluetooth-enabled computer or tablet. But remember it is an Apple-oriented keyboard, so there is no MS start button, and I don't know what the Apple key will do with non-Apple devices.

Yes! The Scanner is possible pairing with iOS devices. Quick Guide support "Pairing with iOS devices method". Really very easy!!

I purchased the scanner for a Windows 7 computer - I'm sorry, I don't know if it's compatible with Windows 8. You'd have to contact the seller to find out that info.

I don't think it does. I had it paired to my iPhone and win8 tablet. But it would only work with the first it connected to if both were in range.

Its a bluetooth device so I am going say yes. I have a samsung android tablet and it connected fine. I only ran into problems with trying to cpnnect with my tab pc which runs windows 8.1. So, this device will more then likely be best for android devices. This is all from my experience by the way. It is a little cheap so you might have to try a couple times to connect.
