The new motion computing J3500 has been a big hit with customers already. The addition of a capacitive multi-touch screen option (includes the Wacom Active Digitiser Pen) and the Intel Core i7 processor has made the J3500 one of the most compelling tablets on the market for tablet users.
Cheek out our video review below.
Motion Computing today announced the J3500, an incremental update to one of our favourite slate Tablet PCs, the J3400.
The new Motion J3500 includes:
The J3500 is backward compatible with existing J3400 accessories. Check out the Gottabemobile.com video review here.
The Sonim XP1 is a rugged, IP54 rated, MIL-810F drop tested mobile phone that is pretty close to unbreakable… That is until this BBC reporter got hold of it (Click on the screenshot to watch the video):
As you can see, the weak point of this phone is its glass screen. We find that the glass screen is the weak point on many of the Tablet PCs on the market too – even the rugged ones. Even though standard screens are made from chemically hardened glass, they are still prone to break when a little force is applied.
Corning turned this problem on its head when they released Gorilla Glass last year – Gorilla Glass is strengthened with a process that achieves a much deeper level of strengthening. You can see a demonstration of Gorilla Glass by Andrew Moore-Crispin of butterscotch.com here at CES in Las Vegas last week.
Motion Computing were the first Tablet PC manufacturer with Corning Gorilla Glass on the rugged F5 and C5 tablets last year. Gorilla Glass is up to four times stronger than other glass used in Tablet PCs and as yet, Motion are still the only Tablet manufacturer using the technology.
Having used Tablet PCs for nearly 10 years (and broken at least 4 screens), I can attest to the value of this glass. It should be an essential component on all Tablet PCs along with a low power Hydis AFFS+ outdoor viewable display – another Motion Computing first.
Sonim should plan a visit to Corning to make their rugged phone even tougher (so that this doesn’t happen in future)!
We take an up close look at the new Motion Computing C5 MkII MCA (Mobile Clinical Assistant) Tablet PC. We take the C5 outside to show of the capabilities of the new Hydis AFFS+ display with Gorilla Glass.
The Motion C5 includes a powerful Intel Core 2 Duo processor and huge array of options like:
Of course it also carries the best screen technology currently available (Hydis AFFS+) making the C5 the most comfortable Tablet PC to read indoor and outdoors without sacrificing battery life.
This is an exceptional Tablet PC and thanks to the strong Aussie dollar, it is currently very well priced.
We have a demonstration unit available for you to get your hands on anywhere within Australia. Contact us for demonstration today on 03 9999 1601 or via our website today.
The Motion F5 and Motion C5 Tablet PCs are now officially tougher!
Motion Computing has officially launched the new C5 MCA and F5 Field Tablet PC with Corning Gorilla Glass – 4 times stronger than regular display glass.
Motion have also put together a great demonstration video for you, check this out:
To find out more about Corning Gorilla Glass, read this article where we leaked the news in August… Sorry Motion, but we have been delivering these to our customers for a while now…!
Of course this not only means better breakage protection, it will also limit scratching on the screen surface.
The Motion C5 and F5 were already certified to rugged US Military standards (MIL-810F) for drop and IP54 rated for dust and water protection.
Now when you couple this new tough display with the new Hydis AFFS+ outdoor display and Core 2 Duo processor and you have a very tough and cutting edge Tablet PC.
We have the Motion F5 and Motion C5 with Corning Gorilla Glass available for demonstrations now. Call us on 0400 687 887 or fill in the enquiry form on our website.
