Tablet PC Choice: Why I use the Motion Computing F5v

One of the fantastic things about choosing a Windows 7 Tablet PC is choice! There are some brilliant Windows Tablet PCs on the market at the moment, so we Windows slate tablet users need not feel like we need to excuse ourselves for not using an iPad anymore!

Take a look at any of the slates below and you will see Tablets that cater to all sorts of different needs:

And that’s not to mention the convertibles!

Personally, I use the Motion Computing F5v for my day to day work as a road warrior. Since I’m on the road or in the air at least 3 or more days a week, I need a tablet that can survive what I put it through. 

Here are the reasons why I’m sticking with the F5v for now.

  • Battery management and car charging
  • Superior outdoor display and Wacom Active Digitizer
  • Intel Core i7 power
  • Ruggedness (MIL810G and IP54)
  • Programmable buttons.

Whilst it may not be as sexy as some of the other options it just works. I simply can’t afford to use a tablet that does not get the job done. Generally I carry a car charger and a spare battery with me.

I previously used the J3500, but I switched to the F5v last June out of necessity (I had to loan out my J3500). Now I’m testing the new touch enabled version of the F5v with both Windows 7 and Windows 8.

If you have time (sorry about the marathon video), take a look at the video that I took to explain:
