Cheap scanners: flatbed, sheet-fed, or portable?

• Flatbed scanners handle photos, books, and fragile items, while sheet-fed models with an automatic feeder speed through document stacks.
• Resolution in DPI matters for photos, and around 600 DPI covers most documents and prints.
• Duplex scanning captures both sides of a page in one pass, without flipping sheets by hand.
• Bundled software should support searchable PDF output and saving straight to cloud folders.

Which suits you: Flatbed models suit home users digitizing photo albums, while small offices clearing paperwork may prefer sheet-fed scanners with duplex feeding.
