Vupoint Solutions Magic Wand Portable Scanner (PDSWF-ST44T-VP) with WiFi - TEAL/TURQUOISE

good

Works very well and am happy with how fast I got it.

pretty cool, have to go slow.

Served the purpose.

Purchase this item to scan papers that i was going to use in my Thesis, Dificult to get thesis from Libraries where youre not an ex-student, but with this little marvel, i scan the Thesis Cover and the Pages i needed from every thesis that would help me, Color Reproduction is good once you white balance the scanner (Sheet attached) Put a 16GB Card in it and Rechargeable 2500mah batteries, can say it lasted over one hour of scanning, and i use the WIFI to download to my phone some of the scanned photos (This was slow), but can say that im still impress with the quality at 900dpi, fine settings, The batteries have charge left for about 40 scans sans WIFI use. IF you are a paralegal and dont want top pay for copies at the court, arrive with fresh batteries (Or have spares) and scan until you finish or youre times up. The question is longevity of the scanner, as it feels it needs more build quality, time will tell unless somebody decides to torture test this item and comment on Quality.

works perfect

Bought this model for its wifi feature. Works ok except the connection comes and goes plus while you are connected you cant be on the web since the wand is connected to a different server. Have to get used to learning how to sweep scan without pausing or else the image comes out distorted.

Ordered this yesterday and received it today. I followed the instructions and was scanning in no time. Reviewed the scans and they were great. I am looking forward to using this gathering documents for ancestry research and taking it to family reunions and scanning pictures there as well as the many uses at home. I reviewed several products online and chose this one for the higher resolution capability. Some others only had 600dpi and this is 900dpi. The only draw back is the wifi feature. I could not get that to work as easily as the other features. I would recommend this product to a friend.

First and foremost, Read the little instructions that come with your instrument. You cannot use Wifi and scan at the same time. Also, you must press the scan button to stop when you are done scanning. Becides that, I am a mobile professional and a paper horder. My intention was to purchase this item to scan client docs and research. It comes with a drawstring pouch, I presume this is a dust cover because it certainly is not going to provide any protection for your scanner. You will need to purchase the case they make for is (+$18). You will also need a micro sd card to scan. It will take up to a 32GB micro sd. (I purchased a 32GB one for $27.00). Lastly, Batteries, I will admitt I did not put brand new batteries in my scanner but it seems to agressively use up batteries and wi-fi seems to drain them also. You may want to invest in some high quality rechargable batteries, it takes AA. (I had to order batteries with a charger on amazon and that cost about $16.00). Now, I know the undercurrent of this review thus far is get ready to spend about as much as you paid for the scanner to use it...and thats about right. However, I have made a few scans and It is TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!! I had no trouble with scanning my first scan was perfect. The color scans look crisp and clear. You can scan in either jpeg or PDF. It defaults to JPEG so remember to switch it to PDF. You can choose the resolution, set date and time (which I havent found a paperclip to do that yet). There are apps on android and ipad which allow you to connect to the scanner via wifi to view the scans. You can also transfer the files to the device your viewing thru the app. It also comes with software to make your scans editable text. I believe anyone who wants to get their paper life together be it a student, no more change for the copier, mobile professional (scan the originals, dont worry about using them), or anyone really. I think this is a must have item.

Great value for the dollar. Easy to use and download informtion from the SanDisk. Recommend anyone needing a portable scanner to try this on.
