FAQ# 1105: Is the Symbol LS2208 the same as the Motorola LS2208?

Question

Is the Symbol LS2208 the same as the Motorola LS2208?

Answer

Yes, they are the same scanner. When Symbol Solutions was bought out by Motorola they changed the name of some products but not all of them. The Motorola LS2208 exists, but there are millions of units branded Symbol LS2208. In 2014, Motorola/Symbol products were rebranded as Symbol. Since then, Zebra has bought out Symbol/Motorola, and is slowly rebranding these products as Zebra. For more information on these product changes, see our Symbol Blog Post.
