Based on the Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3, the Tab-Ex 03 tablet offers state-of-the-art technology for harsh environments as well as Android 11 with update guarantee. Samsung Knox ensures high security for data and devices. The Samsung DeX feature supports a quick switch to the desktop version. In addition, the tablet offers more RAM and external storage than the previous models.

Tab-Ex 03 DZ2 and D2 delivers industry-leading performance in mobile devices for hazardous areas with a slim and lightweight design. It is easy to operate with gloves or the S Pen stylus. A desktop version as well as peripherals for industrial use make the tablet the perfect companion for the modern mobile worker, states the company. Digital products and services from the company complete the all-round solution. Thus, the tablet can be fully adapted to individual requirements and offers optimal support for everyday work.

Compared to the previous version, the new tablet provides enhanced data protection and device security, for example through the new Enterprise Edition of Samsung Knox. As with all Knox-certified devices, it supports functions such as mobile login, configuration, management and E-FOTA (Enterprise Firmware-Over-The-Air) via a separately purchased license. Knox also provides basic protection against malware and data protection hacks.

To simplify access, biometric authentication methods via facial recognition or fingerprint scanner can be used for user authentication with the new tablet.

Like other mobile devices from Ecom, the new Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3, as the base device of the Tab-Ex 03, is part of the Android Enterprise Recommended (AER) program, which ensures consistent, easy deployment and management of mobile solutions through hardware and operating system support, as well as guaranteed Android upgrades and regular security patches within 90 days of release by Google. This way, users save time and money on device deployment and maintenance, adds the firm.

With the new tablet, mobile workers get a tablet with the latest specifications, which enables significant time and cost savings in the completion of their daily work – whether in the field or in the office. With the included S Pen stylus, users can make precise entries, quickly create notes, highlight texts or digitally sign documents – for example via Air Command or the Samsung Notes app. The S Pen writes like a real pen thanks to high pressure sensitivity, a 0.7 mm tip and 4,096 pressure levels. Its IP68-certification ensures its reliability under all conditions, mentions the company.

For taking photos and videos, the new tablet is equipped with a 13-megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash on the back as well as a 5-megapixel camera in the front. An optional version without camera is also available.
