Let’s be honest: nobody looks good with a two-pound brick dragging down their belt line. If you are managing a front desk, running security for a black-tie event, or coordinating a busy retail floor, appearance matters just as much as communication. You need to look the part.
The Motorola SL3500e is the antidote to the "clunky radio" problem. It’s designed for the professional who needs the power of MOTOTRBO™ digital technology but wants the form factor of a modern smartphone. It slides into a suit pocket or clips discreetly to a blazer without ruining the lines of your uniform. It’s about projecting authority without looking like you just walked off a construction site.
Why the SL3500e Belongs on Your Team
-
The "Invisible" Footprint:
At just 23mm thick, you’ll barely notice it’s there until you need it. The virtual keypad and OLED display are hidden behind the housing, lighting up only when you press a button. It keeps you connected while staying out of sight. -
Cord-Free Freedom:
Tired of wires snagging on door handles? The SL3500e features integrated Bluetooth® 4.0. Pair it with a discrete earpiece and keep your hands free for guests or customers. -
Business-Tough Durability:
Don’t let the slim looks fool you. This radio is built to MIL-STD 810 specifications. It handles drops, dust, and the daily grind of a double shift without breaking a sweat. -
Updates While You Work:
With built-in Wi-Fi, you can update firmware over the air. No more taking radios out of service and hooking them up to cables just to keep them current.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this radio compatible with my older analog units?

- Does the virtual screen break easily?
- Actually, it's more durable than a standard LCD screen because it's housed behind the radio casing. It’s shatterproof and designed specifically to resist the scratches and impacts of daily use.
- What comes in the box?
- You'll get the SL3500e radio, a standard Li-Ion battery (PMNN4468), a stubby antenna, a carry holster with a swivel belt clip, and a micro-USB charger.
