The DURABOOK R8 is an ultra-rugged 8-inch tablet designed specifically for demanding field environments and professional use. Powered by a 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-1230U processor with up to 4.4 GHz turbo boost, this fanless Coolfinity™ tablet delivers sustained performance while remaining lightweight (~0.86 kg).

Featuring Durabook’s proprietary DynaVue® sunlight-readable 8.0" LCD touchscreen with a resolution of 1280 × 800 and up to 800 nits brightness, it ensures excellent visibility in bright outdoor conditions. It supports 10-point multi-touch with versatile modes, including finger, glove, stylus, and wet input.

Built for rugged durability, the R8 has an IP66 rating (dust-tight and protects against powerful water jets), meets MIL-STD-810H and MIL-STD-461G testing, and withstands drops up to 1.8 meters. Its magnesium-alloy chassis safeguards internal components without sacrificing connectivity.

Connectivity options include Thunderbolt 4, USB-C with DisplayPort support, Intel® Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth v5.3. The tablet integrates a 2 MP front camera and an 8 MP rear camera (optional), with further expansion modules available (barcode readers, NFC, smartcards) to tailor to various industrial applications.

The device runs Windows 11 Professional and comes standard with an 8GB RAM and 256GB PCIe SSD, balancing performance and storage needs. Its swappable battery system provides around 8.5 hours of runtime with optional higher-capacity batteries extending up to approximately 17 hours.
