Quick Take
The real decision with a machine vision identification scanner is whether you need a portable reader for on-the-floor scans or a fixed industrial unit for automated work. The four scanners here span that range from a new $19.99 Bluetooth 1D/2D handheld to a new-open-box $810.00 Datalogic Matrix 320 industrial reader. If you want the least complicated, lowest-listed-price wireless handheld, the Tera D5100 is the place to start. If you need a fixed industrial reader and can accept an open-box unit, the Datalogic Matrix 320 710-430 is the open-box industrial option. In between are the seller-refurbished Datalogic POWERSCAN PM9501 for wireless retail/POS use and the used Keyence SR-X300W for AI-powered 1D/2D scanning with visible wear.

Product Notes
Tera Industrial 1D/2D Wireless Barcode Scanner Model D5100 Bluetooth 2.4G USB
This is the most direct new unit in the group. The Tera D5100 is listed as new, reads 1D and 2D barcodes, and uses Bluetooth 2.4G through USB for the wireless connection. The orange and black housing gives it a clear industrial look. Choose the Tera when you want a handheld reader without condition caveats. The limit is the connection story: Bluetooth 2.4G and USB are the only listed connectivity, so it is not a multi-radio or cradle-based platform.
Datalogic POWERSCAN PM9501 Wireless Barcode Scanner Retail POS Industrial
The PM9501 sits in the middle of this group as a seller-refurbished wireless scanner. It comes with the scanner and an OEM battery, and the refurbishment process includes cleaning, testing, and replacement of worn components. That makes it a practical choice if you want a Datalogic model without paying for a brand-new unit. The trade-off is the condition: seller-refurbished means it has had prior use, even if the seller says it was fully tested. If you need a factory-new wireless scanner, this is not that.
NEW! Datalogic Matrix 320 710-430 Industrial Barcode Scanner
The Matrix 320 710-430 is the only unit here positioned as a fixed industrial reader with a new-open-box condition. The title says NEW!, but the condition is New - Open box, so the buyer is getting an opened unit rather than a sealed retail box. For someone with an automated line who wants a Datalogic industrial scanner with a clear model number, this is the match. The limitation is exactly the open-box state: you are not getting a factory-sealed product.
Keyence SR-X300W 1D-2D AI Powered Industrial Barcode Scanner \*\*READ
The SR-X300W brings an AI-powered 1D-2D focus that the other three do not claim. The condition is used, and the seller is explicit: fair condition, cosmetics flaws, a missing button, and no manufacturer's warranty or support. If the AI-powered scanning capability is what you need, this is the only model in the group that pairs that feature with an industrial form factor. The limitation is the physical state and lack of manufacturer backstop, so expect to treat it as a used unit with visible damage rather than a clean arrival.
Final Recommendation by Use Case
- For a new, low-friction handheld scanner: Tera D5100 wins because it is new, wireless, and reads 1D/2D codes through Bluetooth 2.4G/USB without refurbishment caveats.
- For retail/POS wireless scanning with a Datalogic name: Datalogic POWERSCAN PM9501 is the seller-refurbished wireless choice if you want an OEM battery and are comfortable with refurbishment.
- For a fixed industrial reader with clear model identification: Datalogic Matrix 320 710-430 is the new-open-box option; it gives you the Matrix 320 family and MPN, but the open-box condition means it is not a sealed unit.
- For AI-powered 1D/2D scanning at the cost of used wear: Keyence SR-X300W is the only AI-powered model here, but you must accept fair cosmetics, a missing button, and no manufacturer warranty or support.
