Bridging the Rugged and Consumer Device Divide
In this paper, we’ll look at how a new generation of rugged devices are merging the functionality, power and price you’ve come to expect from consumer devices with the durability and security you need from rugged handsets.
Everything your business needs
Get the most out of every working minute. Samsung rugged devices help busy professionals maximise their productivity without the need for multiple devices. With a rugged device, there’s no need for a laptop, barcode scanner or clipboard—they’re all rolled into one.
Productivity
Samsung DeX
Samsung DeX connects your rugged device to
a monitor with a single cable for a PC-like
experience. No cable? No problem. With certain
devices DeX connects wirelessly.
Samsung DeX is optimised for a range of productivity apps
like Microsoft Office 365 and VMware, enabling
you to work on multiple applications at once
using full desktop versions of the apps. Frontline
employees will be able to work seamlessly and
securely in the office and on the move.
S-Pen with IP68
Don’t let demanding conditions stop you capturing data. The water and dust resistant S Pen 1 allows you to capture customers’ digital signatures, take notes without touching the screen and create map overlays or sketch out ideas on-the-go. It’s highly responsive, enabling precision input, even with gloved hands, making it as flexible as your itinerary. Plus, there’s no need for batteries or charging, so it won’t let you down.
Wet Glove Mode
Frontline workers are increasingly having to wear gloves whilst working in accordance with guidelines on PPE. Samsung’s rugged devices make sure your work still gets done safely. Whether you’re a field engineer or a healthcare worker, the increased screen sensitivity lets you keep projects running smoothly while keeping your hands protected.
