TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Korean tech giant Samsung had launched their latest tablet Galaxy Tab Active in Indonesia very recently.
“This tablet is designed specially for workers in industrial, manufacture, and infrastructure sectors,” said Pambudi Baskara the Product marketing Manager Business to Business of Samsung Indonesia at Ritz Carlton Hotel.
To reiterate its purpose, Samsung put a U.S Military-standardized protecting cover with OP67-certified Water Resistant and Anti-Shock feature. It means that the tablet can resist one-meter depth plunge into water and 1.2-meter fall. The interesting part is that the micro USB slot is not necessarily covered.
“The device can resist 30 minutes in the water,” Pambudi added.
The device is also long term evolution (LTE) or 4G network-ready.
Criticisms has arose, however, on the water-resistant and anti-shock feature because it is very likely for a phone to fall from more than 1.2 meter-height in infrastructure industry. Also, there is no explanation on the worst effect if the device is immersed more than 30 minutes in over one-meter depth water.
