Panasonic debuts rugged tablet at CES

January 6, 2014

Panasonic today unveiled the latest member of its Toughpad family of rugged, enterprise-grade tablets at the 2014 International CES in Las Vegas.

The Toughpad FZ-M1 is a rugged 7-inch fanless tablet with a 4th generation Intel Core i5 processor. Running Windows 8.1 Pro, the Toughpad FZ-M1 can be incorporated into enterprise and government environments, as well as in retail, supply chain and logistics, the company said in a news release.

"Most tablets on the market today are designed to be 'good enough' to meet most users' needs. But 'good enough' won't cut it for a large portion of the mobile workforce, who need tools they can depend on in challenging conditions to get the job done without compromise," said Rance Poehler, president, Panasonic System Communications Company of North America. "The Toughpad FZ-M1 is built for those workers. Its highly portable and compact size, power, connectivity and configuration options, and sheer toughness make it the ideal tablet to connect mission-critical workers of all types with the data they need to do their jobs at any time."
