Panasonic 12 Toughbook 33 Multi-Touch Tablet

This Panasonic Toughbook 33 is a Windows 10 Pro tablet outfitted with a 12″ touchscreen and comes equipped with rugged features that enable it fully functional in industrial and outdoor environments. The Toughbook 33 is IP65-certified and has been tested against demanding conditions, such as 4′ drops, vibrations, dust and sand, extreme temperatures, and other factors. To survive these situations, it is built with a magnesium alloy chassis encased with ABS and elastomer edges along with reinforced locking port covers and raised bezel edges. On the inside, the tablet is powered by a 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5-7300U dual-core processor, and 8GB of LPDDR3 RAM. Additionally, a 512GB SSD is on board to provide quick boot times and access to files, while a heater helps keep the SSD operational in freezing climates.

Panasonic has armed the Toughbook 33 with a 12″ touchscreen that fully supports 10-point multi-fingered gestures, even while wearing gloves. For more precise commands, a stylus is provided and can be stored in the tablet’s integrated holder when not in use. The display has a native resolution of 2160 x 1440, which is driven by integrated Intel HD Graphics 620 graphics, so you can view small objects on maps or fine details in images. For sunny days, the screen has a maximum brightness level of 1200 cd/m2 and an anti-reflective finish. Additionally, the tablet can also become a 2-in-1 notebook with an optional keyboard dock that features a built-in touchpad as well as additional connectivity ports.

The Toughbook 33 tablet sports one HDMI and one USB 3.2 Gen 1 port to connect with monitors and peripherals, while accessing the Internet and networks can be accomplished via Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), Gigabit Ethernet, or 4G LTE connectivity. Once connected online, you can conduct face-to-face conversations using its integrated 1080p webcam, pair of speakers, and dual-array microphones. To capture your surroundings, an 8MP rear camera is available. Other notable features included with the Toughbook 33 are a microSDXC memory card slot, a contact-less SmartCard reader for user verification, and TPM 2.0, which provides a security chip for safeguarding passwords. There’s also a built-in barcode scanner for quickly inventorying items. Furthermore, the Toughbook 33 weighs 3.4 lbs and is powered by a two-battery system, which provides a combined 10 hours of use and lets you swap out the battery with a fully-charged unit without shutting down the system.

Windows 10 Pro
Start Menu
After its hiatus in Windows 8, the Start Menu has returned. Utilizing a combination of the traditional menu system and Windows 8’s Live Tiles, the improved Start Menu gives you more information at a glance, showing notification information alongside your applications and other pinned items.
Cortana
Microsoft’s digital personal assistant, Cortana can answer your questions with information gleaned from both your device and the internet at large. You can type or even talk with her, if your system has a microphone. Using her Notebook, Cortana keeps track of your needs and wants, and she learns over time to improve her information gathering skills.
Microsoft Edge
After nearly 20 years, Microsoft has finally replaced its Internet Explorer web browser. With Microsoft Edge, users can write directly on web pages and share notes with friends and colleagues. It also improves the online reading experience by adding a distraction-free mode and read-it-later functionality. Edge also has built-in Cortana integration; you can have her help you find a restaurant, make a reservation, and pull up directions without leaving your browser.
Windows Store
For Windows 10, Microsoft has unified the Windows Store. Now, apps for PCs, tablets, and phones will all be accessible from one place. And with support for Universal Apps, one version of an app can work across all your compatible devices automatically.
Windows Continuum
Windows 10 was designed for a variety of screen sizes and input styles, and with its Continuum feature, it automatically adapts to fit your needs. A Windows 10 tablet on its own requires a touch-centric approach, but attaching a mouse and keyboard will shift everything to a more traditional interface. You can even attach an external monitor to your Windows 10 phone for a near-desktop experience. But it’s not just the operating system; Windows Universal Apps take advantage of Continuum as well.
Xbox on Windows 10
Gaming is a big focus of Windows 10. Xbox integration allows for PC players to match up against Xbox One players on supported games, and if you have an Xbox One, you can even stream compatible titles to your PC. Native support for recording with the new Game DVR feature makes it easy to capture and share your gameplay. The new DirectX12 takes better advantage of multi-core processors, giving games a performance boost, even on older hardware. Windows 10 also features native support for virtual reality headsets, such as the Oculus Rift.
Additional Windows 10 Pro Features
The Pro version of Windows 10 includes all of the features of Windows 10 Home plus many designed specifically for businesses users, including Hyper-V virtualization, BitLocker disk encryption, and remote desktop access. Devices will also be able to join domains and the Azure Active Directory, and they can even access a specialized version of the Windows Store featuring custom, company-specific applications.
