Samsung makes business case for Galaxy Tab Active
Samsung has announced a tablet aimed at business use – “built for business,” it says – at IFA 2014 in Berlin. It’s the ruggedized Galaxy Tab Active.How does it differ from all other Android tablets, I wondered?
As you would expect, mention of Knox is prominent – Samsung’s system for managing secure corporate data access, which is built on Security Enhanced (SE) Android.
The extra security, says the company, “keeps applications and data safe in a professional’s own secure space without the need for a third-party platform and extra cost”.
Anything else?
Its anti-shock covering can withstand a 1.2-meter drop, with the protective cover on, and it is water and dust resistant with IP67 certification.
The remaining highlighted features are also really about durability, for people out in the field rather than in the office, with robust “C-Pen” and a detachable battery for (relatively) uninterrupted working. Also:
The 3.1MP Auto Focus Camera can easily scan barcodes, and the Galaxy Tab Active’s NFC technology saves time on communications and work process management. These essential features can greatly boost productivity, such as with a transportation and logistics managers who can leverage the Galaxy Tab Active to seamlessly connect with a building’s foreman on shipping and receiving.
With an 8” WXGA(1280 x 800) TFT LCD display, it runs Android Kitkat (4.4) on a 1.2 GHz Quad-Core Processor, with 16GB of internal memory, and support for MicroSD up to 64GB.
