High productivity in the field is dependent on fast, reliable, and versatile mobile technology, whatever the application or industry. And, with today’s proliferation of next-generation IoT and AI applications fast transforming the business landscape, the need is growing exponentially for ultra powerful and robust mobile devices that can process and deliver data securely and at lightening-speed, in any environment.

As applications become ever more data-heavy however, mobile device users are also experiencing additional challenges with user experience and productivity. The need to be able to switch quickly between applications and enter inputs easily and without making mistakes - especially when working with smaller screens – is driving demand for better screen visibility on mobile devices without the need to size up.

The new Panasonic TOUGHBOOK 33mk4 2-in1 detachable tablet has been designed address these issues and more. With powerful ‘Raptor Lake’ processing power, 5G connectivity, and a unique 12-inch screen, the 33mk4 delivers increased versatility and enhanced usability in a rugged device for any mobile user requirement.

Increased Connectivity and Superior Performance

The 33mk4 is the latest TOUGHBOOK that can connect to 5G standalone (SA) and private 5G networks out-of-the-box, delivering ultra-low latency, faster response times, enhanced reliability, and download speeds for mobile workers wherever they are and whatever the application.

Surpassing the processing power of its predecessor, the new TOUGHBOOK utilises the Intel® Core i5™ or i7™ processor (13^th generation) with Intel vPro ® technology (Raptor Lake) to run the most demanding applications on Windows 11 Pro.

The TOUGHBOOK 33mk4 also features improved Bluetooth and optional dedicated GPS connectivity, and market-leading IP65 dust and water resistance, independently tested to MIL-STD 810H and IEC 60529 standards.

Enhanced Visibility – 3:2 Aspect Ratio Boosts Productivity

Panasonic has seen a shift from end-users in the 2-in-1 detachable tablet market who are looking for bigger screens to increase productivity in the field. Featuring a 12-inch Quad High Definition screen with a 3:2 aspect ratio, and resolution of 2160 x 1440, the 33mk4 delivers increased screen space when compared with 14-inch screens that utilise the 16:9 aspect ratio.

This means that mobile workers have better visibility of data-heavy on-screen applications when using a typical 12-inch tablet, compared to larger models, resulting in improved usability and better productivity, without hindering mobility.

Device Versatility Drives Superior User Experience Across Industries

Panasonic delivers innovative and versatile mobile device technologies providing superior user experience for field workers across industries including field services, automotive, utilities, defence, and logistics. In utilities and defence, mobile field service workers working in challenging lighting conditions will find that the 33mk4’s screen size, resolution, and crystal-clear clarity will enable them to view documents such as technical drawings, schematics, manuals and maps more easily.

The screen resolution and size of the 33mk4 is also ideally suited to automotive diagnostics as the 33mk4 can be mounted to the steering wheel during testing, enabling field workers to use applications in real-time, improving efficiency and productivity.

For mobile workers that need secure Linux-based solutions, the 33mk4 is also certified for use on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, with device certification and testing handled by Panasonic on behalf of the customer. Furthermore, the 33mk4 delivers up to 15 hours of battery life (using hot-swappable batteries), comfortably handing enhanced connectivity and performance demands.

No matter the industry or user persona, the new 33mk4 delivers superior user experiences.

A Game Changer for Increased In-Field Performance and Productivity

Today’s mobile field workers in all industries and all environments need to access mission-critical data quicker than ever before, whether that be via a tablet device, or a traditional notebook. They need high-bandwidth 5G connectivity to be available in the most extreme environments. And, with today’s increasingly data-heavy applications, they also need increased processing power and optimized screen space to manage workloads on-the-go more easily and efficiently.

A game changer for performance, reliability and usability, the 33mk4 delivers exceptional and versatile functionality designed for all industries and environments. Maximising efficiency and increasing in-field productivity without hindering mobility, the new 33mk4 is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible from a mobile, rugged device.
