Built To Last With Next-Level Durability
Designed to endure challenging working conditions, Galaxy Tab Active5 enable workers to use their smartphones and tablets without worry. Galaxy Tab Active5 - along with the Tab Active5's bundled S Pen - are IP68-rated [2] for water and dust resistance, ensuring a level of durability fit for extreme work environments such as construction sites or retail warehouses. Built to the MIL-STD-810H [3] military standard, the Galaxy Tab Active5 can withstand a 1.8m drop when using the bundled protective case [4].
The Galaxy Tab Active5 feature Corning® Gorilla® Glass 5, enhancing durability and scratch resistance. The device displays also allow for adjustments to touch sensitivity[5], making them easy to use for workers wearing gloves. They have also been extensively tested for use with sanitisers [6]. With these specifications, Samsung Galaxy's ruggedized devices are built to withstand severe weather or similar hazards, making them ideal for a wide variety of frontline workers.
Designed To Keep Work Moving in the Office, Field or Frontline
In today's increasingly digital world, enterprises need workers to stay connected and online. The Galaxy Tab Active5 offers 5G and Wi-Fi 6 [7]. The Galaxy Tab Active5 supports Wi-Fi 6 on all models, with optional 5G connectivity available on selected variants. This cutting-edge connectivity allows workers to collaborate more efficiently and effectively.
In addition to smooth connectivity, Galaxy Tab Active5's premium displays make for easy, convenient use. The Tab Active5's 8.0-inch display offers greater visibility in outdoor conditions, thanks to increased display brightness, and a smoother viewing experience with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz. The devices are engineered to offer powerful enterprise support while maintaining a slim, lightweight frame for use in the workplace or on the go.
Samsung Galaxy's ruggedized devices ensure work continuity, providing workers with the support and connectivity they need, even in the most challenging work conditions. For long days in the field or on the factory floor, workers using the Tab Active5 can leverage fast-charging[8] to mitigate wasted time between charges and enable enhanced productivity. The devices also come equipped with replaceable batteries, minimising downtime in and out of the workplace [9].
The Galaxy Tab Active5 can run without a battery in No Battery Mode [10]. This lets workers use the device non-stop at kiosks or in vehicles, preserving battery health in hot environments. The Tab Active5 also have POGO charging interfaces, which simplify the charging process by enabling workplaces with POGO docks [11] to charge multiple devices at once.
Engineered To Maximise Productivity and Security
Samsung's ruggedized devices are also designed to maximise productivity and make fieldwork streamlined and efficient. Increased speaker volume [12] limits confusion on job sites by ensuring accurate hearing. Programmable keys [13] enable shortcuts and improved productivity, and quick barcode scanning via Knox Capture [14] streamlines operations for warehouse work or mobile points of sale (mPOS) [15].
Workers can unleash the full power of their smartphone or tablet with enhanced PC connectivity, too. The devices effortlessly handle quick content sharing, simultaneous displays and overall continuity of work between mobile and PC through Link to Windows, or emulate a desktop interface for jobs that take workers out of the field and into the office.
As businesses continue to operate in a fast-paced environment favouring efficiency, Samsung Galaxy's ruggedized line-up lets workers get more done in less time, helping to meet growing consumer demands through increasing productivity and workplace operations. Galaxy Tab Active5 is also compatible with a range of third-party accessories [16], from various functional cases to charging cradles, USB-Type C PTTs and more - enabling full integration into any workplace operation.
And in a first for Samsung's ruggedized devices, Galaxy Tab Active5 comes with support for Samsung Knox Vault [17]. As part of Samsung Galaxy's commitment to expanding powerful security protections beyond flagship devices, enterprise customers now have even greater choice in the devices they can safely use for their business needs. Knox Vault helps protect the most critical data on these devices, including lock screen information like PIN codes, passwords and patterns.
It constructs a secure execution environment that is physically isolated from the system's main processor and memory and is effective from the moment a user registers their lock screen - thus users can enjoy the security they need without hassle. Knox Vault can help protect users' security keys which encrypt their data stored in the device, helping to ensure safety - even if the device is lost or stolen. A hardware-based and tamper-resistant solution, Samsung Knox Vault was created to safeguard a user's data against not only software-based hacking, but also hardware attacks using high-end professional tools.

[2] Galaxy XCover7, Tab Active5 and Tab Active5's bundled S Pen are water and dust-resistant with an IP68 rating. Based on lab test conditions for submersion in up to 1.5 meters of freshwater for up to 30 minutes. Rinse residue/dry after wet. Not advised for beach or pool use. Water and dust resistance of the S Pen is not permanent and may diminish over time because of normal wear and tear. Remove any excess water from the S Pen with a dry cloth or towel before using or attaching it to tablet.
[3] MIL-STD-810H Certification: Testing against specific environmental conditions including altitude, humidity, immersion, salt fog, dust, vibration, drop, etc. MIL-STD-810H is a standardised form of testing designed by the US military to accurately assess device limitations. Real-world usage may vary by specific environmental conditions used in the testing. Extreme conditions not guaranteed. Test specifications vary by device.
[4] Based on internal laboratory test results. Galaxy XCover7 is designed to be shock-resistant for drops of up to 1.5m on steel surfaces, and Galaxy Tab Active5 is designed to be shock-resistant for drops of up to 1.8m on plywood surfaces.
[5] Touch sensitivity increases responsiveness for leather gloves thinner than 2mm or less in thickness, based on internal laboratory test results. Devices can be used in wet environments, but not fully submerged under water. Underwater touch is not available. Touch-responsiveness may vary depending on the material and thickness of gloves as well as other environmental conditions.
[6] Based on internal laboratory test results. Tested for sanitisers including but not limited to liquid ethanol, ethanol cotton, and chlorine bleach.
[7] Requires optimal connection. Availability and actual speeds for 5G and Wi-Fi network may vary depending on market, carrier, content provider, server connection and user environment. Check with your local carrier or service provider for availability and details.
[8] Fast charging requires a power adapter providing electric power of 15W or above. Fast charge power adapter may not be provided in the box (and sold separately) depending on market.
[9] Extra replaceable battery sold separately. Only Samsung certified extra replaceable batteries are compatible for use.
[10] No Battery Mode needs to be turned on and requires a dedicated USB Type-C power source accessory supporting 9V and 2.3A or above, and PD 2.0 or above. No Battery Mode limits device CPU performance when enabled and reduces maximum volume, display brightness, etc. when enabled.
[11] POGO charging dock sold separately. Battery charging times may vary depending on charging power supported on charging cradle. Battery capacity and performance may diminish over time.
