If you’re shopping around for a mobile device that’s durable enough to withstand industrial threats, then there are only a few options lying around. We’ve seen robust smartwatches, mobile phones, and earphones, but we’ve rarely spotted a tablet that’s built to take the abuse. That was until the arrival of the Panasonic Toughbook FZ-L1, whose appearance alone automatically sets it apart from the rest.
Tech-savvy individuals probably already know that the Japanese brand showcases a special range of devices that can withstand a lot of hazards. The company is an ideal choice when it comes to durable electronics. In the past, they’ve released a unique lineup of laptops. These were designed to be adaptable for both office and fieldwork. Now they’ve taken all of that tech and applied to something even more portable—an Android tablet.
One look at the Panasonic Toughbook FZ-L1 reveals that it’s far from a sleek and stylish slate. What you have is a stocky body that meets the MIL-STD-801G rating. However, we think that its Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 chipset needs an upgrade. The 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage don’t really do it any favors either. However, you get a rugged 7-inch Android 8.1 Oreo tablet that features optional accessories such as a barcode reader and an extended battery. Its slated to come out before 2018 ends
