Rugged tablet / 8″ / Windows 11 Pro
Tuga W8
Desktop power. Site-proof build.
The W8 puts full Windows 11 Pro in a rugged 8 inch body. An Intel Celeron N5100, 8GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD run your Windows software as they would on a desk. The 1920 x 1200 screen gives you room for a full page, and the port selection is the point: USB-C, USB-A and Mini HDMI, so you can connect to whatever the job needs rather than carrying a bag of adapters. Sealed to IP65 and tested to MIL-STD-810G with 1.22 metre drops, with a removable 5000mAh battery and a pogo pin dock connector for desk mounting. NFC is built in, and a barcode scanner variant is available.
