Getac ZX10 rugged Android tablet

Getac has announced the launch of its ZX10 fully rugged tablet, a 10″ device built around the Android 11 operating system.

The ZX10’s combination of Android 11 OS, Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 Mobile Platform and Adreno 512 GPU is claimed to deliver a seamless user experience, enabling efficient workflow in a wide range of field scenarios. Dual hot-swappable batteries ensure full-shift operation, while the LumiBond sunlight-readable display (800 nits brightness) with rain and glove touch capability helps maintain productivity in a range of weather conditions. The ZX10 also has options of up to 6 GB LPDDR4 RAM and 128 GB storage.

An 8 MP front camera and 16 MP rear camera are said to deliver high-quality photo and video capture, while dual integrated microphones filter out loud background noise for enhanced audio quality. Wi-Fi 802.11 ac, Bluetooth (v5.0), dedicated GPS and an optional 4G LTE module offers rapid data transfer and location positioning capabilities in remote field locations. Dual LTE SIM card slots allow field workers to quickly switch between two 4G network carriers.

MIL-STD-810H and IP66 certification means the ZX10 can withstand drops of up to 2 m, shocks, rain, vibration, dust and liquid spillages. It also has an operating temperature range of -29 to 63°C, is only 17.9 mm thick and weighs just over 1 kg.

The ZX10 is designed to meet the needs of public safety, utilities, energy, transport and logistics, manufacturing, automotive and defence professionals who utilise Android-based devices.
