Got two of these and they're just right for heavy duty jobs Read more

I know all the cool kids want thin bezels and no headphone jacks, but... I want to be able to hold my tablet securely without accidentally "clicking" things. This tablet combines an at least superficially "rugged" appearance with decent CPU and graphics performance, good battery life, a good screen, and decent touch performance (which I find degrades as display size increases -- just anecdotal, but hey...) This is not a "computing workhorse", but it's OK. Positives: * Dust covers for all ports. I wouldn't intentionally submerge it, but I'm not terrified if it gets a little rained-on. * Headphone jack. * MicroSD card slot * Comes with outrageous plug-in charger... like something for a small laptop. Seems like overkill, but it charges quickly. * Face buttons at bottom of screen (in portrait orientation) * Back of chassis appears to be removable (screws!) for potential repair/battery replacement * Shallow "feet" and D-rings on back for attachment of a lanyard, or the supplied palm strap A couple downsides - * speaker placement and sound quality: The placement of the speaker on the back results in the speaker being significantly muted when the tablet is put down flat on a surface. The frequency response of the speaker seems to have a pinched high around 2kHz ... maybe a little higher... i haven't done any measurements... but it's a little fatiguing to listen to for extended periods (to my ear, at least). * The location of the power button relative to the volume buttons is a little troublesome -- could be further apart. * The cameras are a bit crap. ...a bit. They're not BAD. I didn't buy this thing to take HDR art photos, but... just keep your expectations reasonable. Read more

I'm an amateur astronomer who does astroimaging in all the seasons. I needed a robust tablet that could handle very warm weather and frosty cold weather. It seems to have a decent battery life. Only minor issues such as it will NOT stream Pandora music and in one of my cars I have to re-pair it with the car's Bluetooth every time I use it. Read more

A sleek rugged tablet with built in removable hand strap. This is my second Enduro. I have the Enduro Urban laptop as well which urged me to go with the tablet when I was looking for a rugged one. Very happy so far. I put 556g micro SD for extra internal memory. I am a Landscape Manager of a botanical garden and bring it everywhere I go. Read more
