Recommended A4 flatbed scanner? (2025)

[King Mustard]

I am shopping for a general-purpose flatbed scanner for up to around £100.

I will be scanning A4 documents and standard 6x4" photographs for archival.

I believe my options are:

• £55 - Canon CanoScan LiDE 300 (2400dpi, USB 2.0 mini-B)
• £75 - Canon CanoScan LiDE 400 (4800dpi, USB-C 3.0)
• £90 - Epson Perfection V39II (4800dpi, USB 2.0)
• £93 - Plustek OpticSlim 2610 Plus (1200dpi, USB 2.0)

I do not know much else about them.

I like that the LiDE 400 has USB-C.

Would you specifically recommend one over another?
