The new xTablet T1180 is housed in a compact, thin and light tablet and offers the Intel 8th generation i5-8200Y Amber Lake processor with a total of 8GB RAM and 128GB to 512GB SSD high performance storage. Another improvement is upgraded global 4G LTE cellular data capability and is expected to become certified by major US networks soon.

xTablet A1180 with Android 9 and GMS Certified

The xTablet A1180 is the Android version of the tablet, boasting the same rugged features as the T1150/T1180, in the same compact, thin and light tablet, but with the latest Android 9.0 (Pie) operating system with GMS certification. MobileDemand expects to have this tablet SOTI certified later this year.

Made Rugged from the Inside Out

Both tablets meet MIL-STD-810G from a 5-foot drop, IP65 sealed to withstand dust, dirt, rain and snow. This allows companies to get work done while protecting their investment. With the end user in mind, the tablets feature ergonomic considerations like glove-fitting back hand strap and a briefcase handle. These carrying accessories make the tablet easier to carry and hold while in use and helps to keep the tablet secure in the hands, being less likely to be dropped.

Mount the T1180/A1180 Anywhere

There are multiple powered and non-powered docking stations available for the T1180 and A1180, like the T1150, depending on what the job requires. They both can utilize the proven T1150 vehicle mount for use in a forklift or cab of a vehicle. Another mounting option includes a patented Snap Mount system. The optional mounting rail is ultra-slim and sturdy, adding functionality in the field to mount the tablet to walls, beams, bars, sides of machinery, counters, desks, cabs of vehicles, and even securely mount it in forklifts. The mount is engineered for quick insertion and release of the rugged tablet – perfect for situations where workers are in and out of vehicles or need to undock from a forklift.

An innovative magnetic mount system is available to magnetically attached to metal walls and sides of machinery or vehicles without having to drill holes. MobileDemand also offers RAM mounting solutions to work with existing mounting systems.

Enhancements for Productivity

From a company who specializes in improving productivity for enterprise businesses, the T1180/A1180 wouldn't be complete without a variety of productivity add-ons.
