Rowina Lee, Vice President -Global Sales & Business Development Center, Getac Technology Corporation informed, “The Asia-Pacific rugged tablet industry is expected to continue growing at an annual rate of 6.3% through 2022 and we see demand here in Asia. With demand comes challenges, and has been in the region for over 20 years, we understand the pain points of the various industries we work with, and build devices designed to suit the needs of the end-users.”

“Working in sectors such as utilities, industrial manufacturing, and emergency services can be unpredictable and extremely challenging, so the last thing workers would want to worry about is their device failing on the job,” said Rick Hwang, President of Rugged Business Unit at Getac Technology Corporation.

For roles like emergency services paramedics, field utility technicians and industrial manufacturing engineers, bad weather, remote locations, and adverse working conditions are all part of the job. To work efficiently, they need powerful mobile devices that work day-in, day-out, regardless of the location or circumstances.

“Our latest UX10 is equipped with multiple configurable factories installed options to fit diverse usage scenarios, providing high flexibility to a range of industries in Asia such as public safety and industrial manufacturing. At 10.1 inches in size and designed with rugged in mind, UX10 has the right fit that enables field workers to operate efficiently under the diverse weather conditions of Asia.” Lee added.
