Xplore Technologies Corp. (NASDAQ:XPLR) today announced its
flagship Android™ rugged tablet, the XSLATE D10, is available with
the upgraded Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow operating system. The
Intel®-powered XSLATE D10 has long been considered the “fully
rugged Android champion” in its 10.1” tablet class. This latest OS
improvement provides Xplore customers with even greater return on
investment (ROI) thanks to Marshmallow’s security, power management
and mobile device management enhancements.
“Companies of all sizes, across all global industries, come to
Xplore because they need to mobilize their workforces with highly
secure, highly versatile enterprise-grade computing solutions that
won’t compromise their sensitive data or the safety of their
workers. They know that Xplore consistently builds and refines
best-in-class rugged tablet solutions with the customers’ best
interests and big picture operational objectives in mind,”
explained Ron Harter, senior director of software development at
Xplore. “With this latest XSLATE D10 OS upgrade, customers will
maintain the Android-defined flexibility they mandate within their
mobile IT environments but gain critical new computing
functionality that will lead to performance and efficiency
gains.”
The new Android 6.0.1, Marshmallow OS improves the battery life
of the Xplore XSLATE D10 rugged tablet more than 10 percent,
extending the use time beyond 8 hours*. Google’s latest
battery optimization techniques work in combination with a new
Marshmallow-specific application standby feature to prevent
workflow applications from draining the battery and causing undue
disruptions to the user. A hot-swappable second battery
option provides up to 22 hours of continuous work time. The
upgraded XSLATE D10 tablets also provide IT managers and users with
several enhancements to the Android for Work and Voice Assist APIs,
each of which will prove indispensable to organizations seeking
greater worker efficiency and, therefore, faster application
responsiveness.
“Often, when our customers first evaluate today’s mobile
computer options, they are shocked to find how many are either
incompatible with existing software, unable to meet security
standards, or incapable of connecting to existing systems,” noted
Josh Austin, CTO of OPEN Inc, the creator of SafetyPAD and an
Xplore partner. “Our fire and EMS customers need complete,
uninterrupted accessibility to critical data resources in and out
of the office, and the Xplore XSLATE D10 rugged tablet is the only
platform that enables them to easily leverage the inherent
flexibility of Android. Xplore’s overt attention to quality,
connectivity, and performance in the engineering of the XSLATE D10
has enabled our customers to easily achieve every one of their
mobility goals. The recently expanded OS features will enable us,
as a software provider, to further optimize and scale our
solutions.”
The XSLATE D10 has been lauded for its user-friendly features,
including a bright outdoor-viewable multi-touch display; eight
standard I/O ports; and 4G LTE, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi technologies.
It also comes standard with several collaboration tools that enable
hi-res image capture and video conferencing as well as multi-user
login. The rugged tablet’s numerous MIL-STD-810G tested, IP65-rated
and ATEX/C1Z2-certified Hazardous Location safeguards combine with
a 64GB Solid State Drive (SSD) to keep workers productive – and
their work protected – in every environment.
The XSLATE D10, named Intel’s 2016 Client Platform of the Year,
is also a highly secure and fully managed mobile computing
solution. It can easily be deployed, configured, secured, and
upgraded using a number of enterprise mobility management (EMM)
platforms, including Airwatch, MobileIron and SOTI Mobi Control.
And customers benefit from the standard TPM, Kensington Lock
option, and expanded security and encryption features now available
via the Marshmallow OS.
