Bragging rights incoming: Kyocera received the BLI 2026 A4 Line of the Year Award from Keypoint Intelligence after independent testing across our A4 range.
What makes this particularly meaningful is that the recognition is not based on one standout device. Rather, it reflects consistent performance across the full A4 portfolio, measured against the things that matter most in real working environments: reliability, image quality, productivity, and digitisation capability.
The BLI testing outcomes speak directly to what South African organisations are dealing with right now. Costs are rising, hybrid work is normal, and teams need dependable technology in environments where downtime, reprints, and manual workarounds create real operational risk. Independent testing across the full A4 range is a useful proof point, because it shows that these devices can hold up in real working environments, not just on paper.
Across healthcare, education, logistics, financial services, and the public sector, A4 devices remain critical infrastructure. From patient records and compliance documentation to invoices, applications, and service delivery workflows, consistent performance often matters more than headline specifications.
Keypoint Intelligence highlighted strengths that align closely with those realities:
With more than 20 A4 devices across the ECOSYS and TASKalfa lines, teams can choose the right fit for workload, space, and budget, rather than forcing one device to do everything.
When days are packed and deadlines are fixed, predictable performance and long-life components help protect service continuity. This award reinforces that Kyocera is built for exactly that.
