New R11L offers a compact, feature-rich option at an affordable price for workers in retail, hospitality, warehousing, logistics and field service.


Durabook, the global rugged mobile solutions brand owned by Twinhead International Corporation, have announced the European launch of its high performance, lightweight 11.6 inch touchscreen tablet. The new R11L is built to boost productivity and efficiency for workers in retail, logistics and hospitality, as well as for applications like workforce management, asset/inventory management, mobile POS, line-busting, in-aisle assistance, and table service. The R11L expands Durabook’s rugged tablet range and offers an enterprise-class option for workers that require seamless data-capture and high flexibility.

 

“Demand has never been stronger for our 11-inch fully rugged tablets, as more and more customers are demanding thin, light devices that offer quality, durability and top performance, all at an unmatched price in the current market,” said Twinhead CEO Fred Kao. “Our current range of rugged tablets is already benefiting hundreds of users across a wide range of industries and work environments, and we're confident the R11L will deliver agility, efficiency and responsiveness that businesses demand today.”  

 

The R11L is slim and lightweight (1.2kg), making it highly portable. It has up to 16 hours of battery life, includes Windows® 10 Pro, a high-performance, energy-smart Intel® Pentium processor and Intel® HD 610 Graphics, for fast and efficient use of applications and visuals on the move and around the clock. Reliable connectivity and high-speed data transmission are delivered via Intel® Dual Band Wireless and Bluetooth® V5.0. The device’s DynaVue® sunlight readable LCD screen has a 10-point capacitive multi-touch panel, which can be used with a glove, stylus, or finger, even if the screen is wet, optimising the device’s usability regardless of work conditions. With an IP65 rating and MIL-STD-810G certification for 4’ drop, shock, vibration, rain, dust, sand, humidity, high/low temperature, and more; plus ANSI 12.12.01 C1D2 certification, the R11L can be used in almost any operating environment and deliver reliable performance.

 

Durabook offers opportunities for customisation and the R11L has many expansion options available; including optional RFID reader, smartcard, barcode and magnetic stripe readers for seamless data-capture as well as a rear camera. 

 

As with all Durabook mobile computing devices, the R11L comes with a standard three year warranty and local repair facilities. 

 

Durabook rugged tablet range includes the R11, ideal for the complex computing and graphics needs of workers in oil and gas, and field service; and the ultra-rugged U11I, which meets the needs of workers in the most extreme environments, such as military and public safety.
