London, UK – October 7^th, 2020 – Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. has launched the new Galaxy Tab Active3, a rugged tablet based on the popular Tab Active2 design to meet the rigor of today’s mobile workforce with a sleek, compact design for portability. The Tab Active3, which is now available in the UK, is built for how businesses operate today with increased emphasis on improving employee productivity and safety. The performance and productivity features are perfect for field-based employees and includes capabilities like Touch Sensitivity to help professionals, like first responders, who use gloves^[1] for working safely in the most challenging environments and conditions.

“The way the world does business is rapidly changing as we move away from the office and out into the field,” said Joe Walsh, Director of B2B at Samsung Electronics UK. “When developing the new Galaxy Tab Active3 we listened to feedback from our customers and partners and focused on creating a product that would make it easier to get things done. Not only is the Galaxy Tab Active3 more durable, but its performance has been upgraded to support the latest applications for maximum productivity.”

Built for tough environments

The Galaxy Tab Active3 is MIL-STD-810H certified to handle some of the world’s toughest jobs in the most extreme environments; its enhanced shock absorption is now able to withstand drops of up to 1.5 meters with an inbox protective cover^[2] and it is IP68 rated^[3] dustproof and water resistant, providing peace of mind when working in unpredictable outdoor environments.

Superior performance

Equipped with the powerful Exynos 9810 processor, 4GB RAM and up to 64GB internal storage, the Tab Active3 has the power to keep up with the digital businesses of today while

Wi-Fi 6 with MIMO delivers super-fast Wi-Fi connectivity for greater data transfer speeds.

The long-lasting, replaceable 5050mAh battery^[4] also supports fast charging through USB and POGO pins so you can spend less time plugged in and more time on the task at hand. And for businesses that use tablets in a fixed location like a kiosk, Tab Active3 now supports “No Battery Mode” for power without a battery^[5].”

Next level productivity

The Tab Active3 is a productivity powerhouse, providing a PC-like experience wherever work takes you. Samsung Dex is now available on the Tab Active3, ensuring dual-screen functionality so tasks can be picked up from anywhere, whether in the office, or in the field.

Additional Tab Active3 features include^[6]:

• Capture Everything: The 13MP rear camera provides perfect clarity for both taking pictures or scanning detailed documents and the 5MP front camera is ideally suited to video or conference calls.
• Augmented Reality: Google ARCore is now supported and enables new augmented reality services, such as remote training.
• Quick Access: The Active Key on the side of the device allows instant access to the apps or programs used most often; great for emergency calls, scanning or Push to Talk and so much more.
• Retail Ready: Galaxy Tab Active3 is optimized for camera-based barcode scanning to help retailers easily manage inventory and scan products for purchase. The Tab Active 3 also supports NFC with EMV Level 1 for payment.
• Touch Sensitivity: When turned on in the settings, Touch Sensitivity allows professionals to continue using the Tab Active3 while wearing gloves^[7]. No more time spent taking gloves on and off.
• IP68 Certified S Pen: Perfect for signature capture and managing complex documents in gloved environments, the S-Pen is also water and dust resistant.

DRIVE is a world first, state-of-the-art unit dedicated to research, data analysis and the testing of new technologies. A digital incubator, DRIVE is focused on revolutionising clinical practice and enhancing patient experiences and outcomes.

The first device being tested within the DRIVE facility is the Samsung Tablet. Once optimised with bespoke content, SMART Apps and a patient friendly interface, the Samsung Tablet will help take the NHS into a more digital era.

From supporting parents through difficult times by providing care plans and medication schedules at the touch of a button, to video conferencing capabilities which connect children with their normal family lives at home or with GOSH consultants, the Samsung Tablet can help the NHS deliver a continuity of care and support.

Suzanne Homewood, Director of Enterprise, Samsung UK commented:

“Being able to develop technologies which have the potential to transform lives and improve patient outcomes is hugely motivating. By joining forces with the world-class team at GOSH, we can begin to harness the power of our technology to find solutions to problems that haven’t yet been predicted, and accelerate the growth of digital healthcare. With DRIVE, we now have the ability to incubate and test new ideas which can eventually be scaled to help children, and the teams that care for them in the UK and across Europe. It’s an honour to be involved.”

The Tablet, protected with Samsung Knox for maximum security, will also give patients the ability to access the Samsung Health ecosystem securely, helping them to take control of their own recovery and improve their overall healthcare experience.

“The Samsung Tablet is just the tip of the iceberg for Samsung. From virtual reality ‘pain distraction’ prototypes to smart wearables, we’re powering ahead with our plans to get more projects into DRIVE so we can start to make a real difference to children, families and healthcare professionals from day one,” she added.

Samsung is one of seven founding partners of the DRIVE unit, joining Microsoft, ARM, NTT Data, Barclays, NHS Digital and University College London.

LONDON, UK – 1 August, 2018 – Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4, a new Android tablet designed for people who want to do more on the go—from home to the office and everywhere in between. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 delivers an experience that helps you work smarter by keeping you operating at the highest levels. Paired with a polished modern design, an immersive display, quad speakers and enhanced entertainment features, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 is the perfect device for those who need something portable like a tablet and capable like a PC.

We look forward to providing our customers with a sense of leisure and comfort knowing that this new addition to our ecosystem of connected devices is also packed with features to help them stay entertained.”

Productivity with Samsung DeX and S Pen

With the Galaxy Tab S4, Samsung is bringing Samsung DeX to the tablet for the first time. When connected to the optional Book Cover Keyboard (sold separately) or launched from the Quick Panel, the Galaxy Tab S4 powers on Samsung DeX, giving users the option to switch from the Android interface to a desktop experience. With Samsung DeX, you can open multiple desktop-style windows for your Android apps, including the Microsoft Office suite, directly on the Galaxy Tab S4, and re-size^[1] them when needed. Drag and drop^[2] content between apps and use keyboard shortcuts and commands for efficiency.

If more screen is needed, there is also an option to extend Samsung DeX to an external monitor with a compatible HDMI to USB-C multi-port adapter (not included). When connected, the Galaxy Tab S4 can serve as a track pad or a sketch pad, and new this year, the Galaxy Tab S4 can continue to work as a fully functional Android tablet, giving users two screens to accomplish tasks.

Whether at the office, at home, or on-the-go, the Galaxy Tab S4 keeps you going with a 7,300mAh battery that provides up to 16 hours of video playback. Additionally, with Samsung Knox, Samsung’s defense-grade mobile security platform, customers and companies can ensure critical information is protected at multiple levels of the device.

They can take notes on the fly through the Screen-Off Memo feature, as well as navigate, translate and organize notes through Samsung Notes, and even send personalized texts through Samsung Live Message – all with the S Pen.

A Screen Fit for Any Job – or Movie

It’s easier to get more done when you have the right screen. Even the busiest professionals still take time to sit back with a game or movie. Now you can enjoy a more immersive experience on a device you can take anywhere. While similar in size to the Galaxy Tab S3, the Galaxy Tab S4 sports narrower bezels to fit a large 10.5-inch display with Super AMOLED technology, as well as a 16:10 screen ratio with 2560×1600, 287 pixels per inch (PPI) resolution for vivid picture detail and true-to-life visuals.
