Samsung Galaxy Tab Active3: That Rugged Tablet By Pragmach

Hello everyone and welcome to pragmatic. Today I want to discuss with you a rugged style tablet, something a little tougher than we're used to, and that is the Samsung Galaxy tab. Active3. The third generation device is designed for frontline workers. It's meant to be operational in some of the toughest environments, following some of the toughest use that you could imagine on an electronic device. The tab active 3 delivers military-grade ruggedness, all in a small portable eight inch device for the most part.

Samsung has geared this towards enterprise. It's not really a consumer tablet when they say frontline workers, they really do mean it. They mean anybody on the go places where this might be dropped in the field. This is meant to be used, however, that doesn't mean that consumers can't buy it as well and get in on the ruggedness. There is something just so satisfying about seeing a piece of text designed in an era where things seem to break and not be as tough as we need them to be.

For day-to-day usage, devices have gotten more expensive and at the same time, it seems like they're, more fragile and withstand a lot less than we need them to, and I have a feeling that more than a few viewers are interested in a rugged, tougher tablet and let's get into what that means. Some of the features that Samsung wants to highlight is that it does have a replaceable battery, meaning that, if you are using this for extended periods of time, you can hot swap a battery which is very rare for an electronic device. These days, replaceable batteries are almost non-existent in phones and more and more tablets as well have built-in batteries soldered in which makes the Galaxy Tab active a strong player. If, for whatever reason, you need power on the go, the screen also has some technology which Samsung says enhances touch and that helps when using it with gloves working in the field and in the front line, oftentimes means wearing gloves and Samsung has kept that in mind. They do mention that this is intended for the thinner gloves, not maybe some super heavy-duty gloves going along with the ruggedness.

There is an ip68 rating, and that gives it water resistance up to five feet for 30 minutes and increasing its ruggedness. It's also been tested in 23 different environmental conditions, which include dust, shock, absorption, low pressure, and it's also been in the ringer. In about most conditions. You would expect to use a tablet like this with the Samsung case on they tout a total 1.5 meter drop resistance and the device also works with a ruggedized ip68 certified s pen, which can be snapped into the top of the case and stored in a compartment getting into the nitty-gritty specs. It has an eight-inch display a 1920x1200 1610 display.

That is a really nice resolution for such a small screen, which is going to give you that ability to see high resolution see that almost paper quality resolution, if you're reading or making notes on it using the s pen, it is powered by Samsung's own outscore processor, and it comes with four gigabytes of ram storage. Configurations begin at 64 gigabytes and there is a 128 gigabyte SSD option as well. There are two cameras on the device, the front-facing camera being 5 megapixels and the rear camera coming in at 13 megapixels capable of recording 4k at 30 frames per second and for ports. There is USB and a micros card reader supporting cards up to one terabyte. The removable battery is a total of 5050 megawatt hours for increased security.

The tablet does have a fingerprint sensor to unlock pricing is a little steep for the device, and that comes with the territory. This is not meant for everyday use. This is meant for ruggedness and durability. It's going to cost 489 for the Wi-Fi model and 589 for the LTE model. I think the use case for non-enterprise would be hikers anyone who's in the outdoors a lot.

Anyone into active sports who might want to have their technology with them, but might risk smashing something that isn't as durable as what Samsung has provided, because the pricing is so steep. There really is no value if you're just going to be putting this on your coffee table on your bed stand or on your desk, and it's not really going to leave the house. Perhaps if you have some bad luck, and you've smashed a lot of things in the past, this could be a good investment for you to address the real world value of this 8 inch device is pretty difficult. It's very specialized. It's very subjective Samsung though in this case has definitely prioritized function and durability over perhaps design and price.

Some design elements on the Galaxy Tab, active 3, do make it look a little dated. It definitely is not the most streamlined design that we've seen of recent years, but that's because in this case it is function over form and that's what makes this device so unique. It is impressive to see that Samsung can beef up its devices to withstand the daily, wear and tear of being deployed on the front lines while still delivering good specs, a beautiful display and a form factor we're used to, and perhaps what Samsung learns from producing these more rugged style devices. They're going to be able to integrate into their future flagship phones and flagship tablets, and we can see those devices gain some durability while maintaining that sleek design that we're used to seeing, and that would be great to see some of their learnings from enterprise transfer over to their more consumer oriented products. Let me know your thoughts.

Let me know what you think about this tablet. Let me know if you think you're a person that could actually benefit from having something so rugged. Thank you. Everyone. Thank you for listening to my thoughts.
