It's basically the same.Just in a Android Form.We have been testing several different ones.But,the Samsung we are going with is about the size of the S8.Very nice & thin.They are replacing the old handhelds because they are outdated and unable to get parts to repair.Samsung found out that OD was testing different company's and they jumped and really are making them work.OD can buy 4 Samsung's for the price of 1 of the other's.They will operate just like a Smartphone.I was told we were getting our's this next week.They will have a nice rugged case and clip just like the Otterbox.You will be able to use a S8 charger cable on them.
