Tuga A10 £449
Workever's fieldworker features (forms and checklists, photos, signatures, camera QR and barcode scanning, offline forms and background tracking) live in the Android app, so the device a fieldworker carries needs to run that app well rather than a browser. Workever publishes no minimum Android version or RAM figure, so the choice comes down to the app being current on Google Play and the work it describes. The Tuga A10 runs Android 14 with Google Play, has 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, and its 10.1 inch 1920 x 1200 screen shows more of a multi-section form at once than the 8 or 6 inch options, which also helps when a customer signs on screen. The vendor's download article names tablets alongside phones, and its Play description says phones or tablets. The IP68 and MIL-STD-810H ratings cover rain on a roof, dust in a plant room and drops from a ladder, the 13MP rear camera with flash is the scan and photo path the help centre documents, and it has GPS for the tracking the vendor describes. It fits both the charging dock and the vehicle mounting dock.
- Requirement: the Workever Android app from Google Play (no minimum Android version published). Tuga A10: Android 14 with Google Play, which is a current release well above the Android 7.0 figure a third-party mirror lists.

- Requirement: QR code asset scanning and barcode stock scanning through the device camera, plus job photos. Tuga A10: 13MP rear camera with flash (scanning is through the camera via the app; there is no dedicated scan engine).
- Requirement: multi-section forms and customer signatures on screen, on a phone or tablet. Tuga A10: 10.1 inch FHD IPS 1920 x 1200 at 350 nits with tempered glass; the capacitive stylus accessory fits it.
