M2 gen 2 now shipping, SOTI certified

The new generation of QBOID's handheld dimensioner runs Android 16, enrolls as an Android Enterprise device, and is on SOTI's list of devices certified for SOTI MobiControl.

QBOID has started shipping the M2 gen 2 mobile dimensioner. It looks and works like the M2: one scan records an item's length, width and height, its barcode and photos, for boxes and irregular items alike. What changes is inside, and most of it is for the IT teams who manage the devices. On 11 November 2026, SOTI added the M2 gen 2 to its list of devices certified for SOTI MobiControl, on Android Enterprise with Android 16.

What's new

  • Android 16. Up to date, with ongoing security updates.
  • Android Enterprise. It enrolls in your MDM as an Android Enterprise device, not through the legacy device administrator mode.
  • An upgraded structured light 3D sensor, for more accurate dimensions.

Everything else carries over: the Item & Parcel, Pallets and WorkFlows apps, the S1 and the accessories, and your integrations, from the Perceptor API to QBOID Cloud. The launch film shows the M2 gen 2 inside and out.

Certified for SOTI MobiControl

SOTI lists the M2 gen 2 among its certified devices as the QBOID M2, on the Android Enterprise platform with Android 16. For an IT team running SOTI MobiControl, that means:

  • The M2 gen 2 enrolls in MobiControl, or another MDM, as an Android Enterprise device, alongside your scanners, handhelds and tablets.
  • The QBOID apps, WorkFlows apps and settings go to every device from the console, so the fleet stays on policy.
  • The M2 makes outbound connections only, with proxy support: nothing connects in to the device.
