Trying to decide which rugged tablet is the best fit for your business? As rugged tablet experts, we know what's important to consider. Here are three ergonomic considerations when choosing a rugged tablet.


  • Look for intuitive features designed with productivity in mind. For example, integrated barcode scanning buttons placed where worker’s hands naturally grip a tablet. Instead of having to waste time turning the tablet or trying to locate the button, workers can simply press scanner buttons where their fingers already are.

  • For industries where workers will be holding a tablet for long periods of time, (think QSR line-busting) having ergonomic features is a must. Our xCases all come standard with a back hand strap and briefcase handle—reducing hand and wrist pain and making transport super convenient.

  • If your workers frequently find themselves working outdoors, having a sunlight viewable screen allows for easy viewing without cranking brightness levels.


When making this investment, be sure the solution you choose is designed with features that enhance productivity and won’t slow workers down. We recommend the new xTablet T1190—ultra-thin at only 15mm in depth, the 800-nit sunlight viewable display, back hand strap and briefcase handle make it the ultimate sleek yet rugged solution.
