Dell announces the Windows 10-powered Latitude 7220 Rugged Extreme tablet

Dell announced a new Windows 10-powered rugged tablet today, called the Latitude 7220 Rugged Extreme. It can withstand drops of up to four feet, extreme temperatures, and has Whiskey Lake CPUs.

If you're in the market for a Windows 10 tablet but the ones on the market are too fragile, Dell has a solution for you. The company today announced the Latitude 7220 Rugged Extreme, a tablet that can handle four-foot drops, and extreme temperatures between -20 and 145 degrees Fahrenheit. It's MIL-STD-810H tested, so it's tough; it's IP65 rated for dust and water resistance as well.

The tablet comes with an 11.6-inch 1080p display that goes up to 1,000 nits brightness, along with anti-glare and anti-smudge coatings, so it shouldn't be a problem in direct sunlight. It uses Intel's Whiskey Lake CPUs, and comes with up to 16GB RAM and up to a 2TB PCIe NVMe SSD. In the connectivity department, it supports up to Wi-Fi 6, and you can get it with a Snapdragon X20 4G LTE modem for cellular connectivity.

It comes with the features you'd expect from a rugged device that's meant to be used in the field, such as a hot-swappable battery. You can have it configured with up to two 34Whr 2-cell li-ion batteries.

You can pick up the Latitude 7220 Rugged Extreme today, starting at $1,899.
