A couple'a years ago, I bought one of those rugged Windows tablets for around $200. We used it in our biosafety lab for taking notes and keeping track of experiments. Since it was waterproof, we could just douse it in Ethanol or Virkon after each use, wipe it off, and have it good to go again. And since it had a resistive touch-screen, it even worked while we were wearing gloves. Sure it was slow as heck and the battery life was terrible, but honestly, for what we needed it to do, it worked great for years and I'm quite happy these odd types of tablets exist.

@alexatkin

Though it has to be noted that waterproof does not mean all liquid proof. There's always a chance using anything other than water can damage the plastics or touchscreen coating. Phones claiming to be waterproof always bug me as they will show things like them getting dropped in the swimming pool and then in the small print point out that the rating is only for pure water, not chlorinated. This is the particularly annoying with smartwatches as swimming with them seems logical for fitness tracking, but many are not rated for the pressure you will put on them when swimming, even when marketed as a sports watch. Heck, they're not even guaranteed sweat proof.

The doorstop one has plenty of space inside so I wired up an RFID reader internally and used it as a time clock for staff to clock in and out. I bought another one to use as a Zello to Windows gateway. Once set up it barely requires any intervention so it's like a NUC plus touchscreen in one unit which is more convenient than a NUC as the footprint is small and you can see what's happening on the screen. It has been running 24/7 for the past 4 years with no issues. They obviously don't have wall mounts because if you mounted them on the wall, they'd be angled towards your chest. They're meant to be placed on a desk or counter top.

Great video as normal. I have content suggestion. "How rugged is a rugged phone?". It would be interesting to see you all putting rugged phones through their paces. Just think of all the tests you could dream up in the lab for them (stock prrof, water proof, dust proof, being buried in concrete and then dug up, hot and cold temperature tolerance, the list does on and on). Interesting side note. Some rugged phones have thermal camera.

Those licence free "walkie talkies" have different frequency ranges per country but my assumption is the module inside it is designed for VHF/UHF ham radio bands so no HF/shortwave. HF Bands also need massive antennas to transmit. If anyone in your office has a ham licence, give it to them and they will probably be able to get it to transmit on the ham bands.

The tent one is probably for restaurants. I could see it as being really useful in that application. On the table is a way to pay and have the server interact with it or at the cashier checkout that way you don't have to rotate a screen.

as some of the comments have already pointed out, many of these tablets aim for b2b customers who need some kind of thin client terminal in their businesses, like ordering tablet in restuarants and interactable information stand in museum/gallery etc. they aren't really designed with personal use as priority.

3:20 he understands money

I ran an undergard physics laboratory - these type of devices would be perfect for interfacing with lab equipment, such as oscilloscopes etc. (many of which still have serial interfaces) - as long as software is available. The small form of these devices is ideal, given the amount of equipment that is often out on the benches. The rugged tablet form, would also be useful for taking the experiment out of the lab and into the field.

@Montisaquadeis

11 ай бұрын

Yup that is one use case for devices like this as well as other industrial uses for matience of machines and other stuff. AKA take the rugged ones out for field mateience for example.

I remember when those wedge/doorstop devices were new. I actually liked the form factor and the extra ports compared to a traditional tablet. I also liked the idea of no battery so it could be kept in service for a long time, if desired, without battery issues coming up. I could have used one of those too as I was having some major back pain that made sitting upright using a laptop difficult. I didn't get a regular tablet for a little bit. But I did like that form factor, at least in theory. I might have gotten one, but I didn't like that they all seemed to be dual boot(I wanted Android only) and were using the old Intel Atom chips and they didn't seem to be looking to update them. Of course, most of that comes down to the situation with Windows licenses for small devices at the time.

the doorstop one is used a lot in in-store displays. Google uses a very similar designed tablet for their little display houses in stores like Bestbuy that act as an interactive screen for showing little ads and features of their nest products. Its only really meant to be gotten into by technicians and employees to update content, and is powered up with the rest of the equipment so no need for a battery.

Yes!!!! You read my mind! I wanted a nice review of one of those doorstop ones because I saw them being used in a store as complements to their legacy sales system. Nice!

Linus buying random things from AliExpress is like me. Except he can write these purchases off as a business expense and just chuck the products in one of his humongous buildings.

Some companies I work for use the Tablet Tent as a means for workers to clock in and out. Mount it vertically, and have both screens display the clock in/out software then line up on both sides

The doorstopper ones are great for deploying in a floor where you need to tick things on a system. Nice self contained boxes that are good enough for most floor PC usage, that are easy enough to deploy and to replace as long as you have a power outlet (specially the windows one)

OMG the serial port edit with Linus face killed me 😂😂😂

I have used the tent tablet quite frequently while purchasing coffee and snacks at the local café, they have these instead of the swiveling ones found more commonly.

05:40 I work at a game store and would love to have one of those at the store counter, so you can show someone something on the website without moving a monitor around or having to go around the counter Edit : also the 1st tablet I actually used when doing cctv training, the joystick would connect to it and you clicked the screen to change cameras

I used that IP67 Windows tablet! I was looking into it for lab applications. It works alright for taking notes and whatnot. I would have preferred it there was a Surface tablet in that size that supports the pen. Would be way more useful.

NOT gimiccky when its main use is in Point of Sales and use in situations like warehouses and the like. AKA the LMG team didn't do a very good job on this one honestly with doing research into what these kinds of devices are meant for. They can also be used at home for automation setups and CCTV setups as well. Searial is still a very used port in an industrial setup where the ruggedness on those couple would be very useful as well. So yeah

We've used several tablets similar (probably the same) to the Greatium Windows Tablet. We needed the serial port to connect with RFID UHD antennas, as well as Miele washing macines for software we created to track laundry at hospitals, nursing homes and alike. We actually experienced very few faulty tablets, and were overall quite pleased with them - at the price point we obtained them at.

First 3 "tablets" get used as a cash register. They sit on top of a cash drawer and you connect a receipt printer to them. It's a very commun thing in many countries.

Tablets 1 and 3 don't really need volume buttons because they're kiosks which will have the volume muted. Tablet/Kiosk 1 doesn't have a home button because you don't want users quitting out of the app your are running. Tablet/Kioski 3 mirrored display could be so a user can checkin and security/receptionist can see what they are inputting as they input. Why no batteries? Linus mentioned permanent install. But beyond that, some Kiosk software licenses limit the location where it can be used, so you don't want people taking the tablet to a second location via battery.

I actually love that it doesn't have a battery because it's one less thing to worry about over time. But it does make one think how long can it last now without the battery wearing out. I would assume the nand flash would wear out and eventually die and that would kill it.

Kind of cool to see those wedge shaped devices again! Those first two "tablets" are bringing back strong memories of the Sony Dash (variant of a chumby) I got off woot in college. The one thing it got right that these did not IMO was the ability to have it stand up for cross-room viewing, then flop it down for interacting more closely. Our standards were lower pre-ipad, but the ability to flip orientations on the Dash made it an almost pretty decent alarm clock/pandora/email feed/netflix device.

So we have: • Nintendo 2DS without battery • 2DS without battery (but with windows and antenna) • Part of a cool futuristic armour cosplay • Completely normal tablet to watch Netflix on • Transformers themed walkie talkie (that doesn’t work as such)

the 2 rugged looking ones are often used by mechanics as a mobile obd2 tester that you can take in the car when searching for various errors. We have a similar looking one to the yellow in our shop

The tent one is simular to what we use at the sporting good counter at walmart. That way the customer can see what I input, I can see what they input, and they have a chance to read and agree to whatever fishing license or whatever they are buying.

The tent can be used in restaurants for ordering from a digital menu, like they do in some sushi restaurants in Japan. If two/four people are facing each other, everyone can still see one of the screens, and also use it.

I'm pretty sure the prices for those never changed for their actual price since release, what makes me curious is that are people selling them aware of the specs of those? or maybe they're just waiting for someone (Looking at Linus) to actually buy those before making them obsolete 🤔

Signage display controls 4. Queuing system/counter 5. Etc... After some time one is missing, other not working because of charging issues and etc... This makes perfect replacement for that.

"Ability to download a dedicated computer" just makes me imagine a cartoon-esque scenario where a hapless user gets a desktop PC with an actual tower fly into them from the screen after they click on a compressed file.

That black weatherproof tablet looks an awful lot like the tablets we use here in Missouri for vehicle inspections (the I/O and controls are a little different but the physical size and layout is really close, the rubber flaps covering the I/O is straight up identical). They are hot garbage and I don't know anyone who's used it that doesn't want to bash them against the corner of their toolbox.

I was wondering why the waterproof windows tablet looked so familiar. One of the down hole gyro surveying tools I use at work comes with it to pull data from the tool. For a half million dollar tool I thought it would’ve come with a tablet that wasn’t bought from AliExpress 😂

I thought things would get worse after Linus stepped down… I was wrong. We now are receiving more content his true passionate subscribers appreciate! Tech tips indeed!

He steps down on July 1st, so nothing changed yet.

More of this please! 🙌

The wedge shaped one is often paired with self-contained photo printer booths that use the Citizen made thermal dye sublimation ribbon based printers. Citizen's version has true 600 DPI print resolution. But the same machine they make for DNC only has 600x300 DPI resolution.

Linus never makes us get bored in his amazing videos.

The tent one can be used for billing and taking feedback from the customer at shops or at a security desk for entering information by a visitor. 5:58

I see a lot of these "tent" models in small indie coffee shops and markets here in Cambodia. One side is configured to be the sales input and the other is for the customer, and is usually configured to display a QR for cashless transactions.

They went straight from downloading RAM to downloading a whole computer

I think the orang tablet while claiming to be a walkie talkie, but actually doesn’t fit into the same class, many of them are actually POC devices(Push To Talk Over Cellular), which requires apps like Zello or if the company has a dedicated one, can be side-loaded into it.

Those tables r used at Stores for pos billing and ports r for thermal printer, barcode scanner,and cash drawer

Just to clarify, the first black doorstop is actually not meant to be a normal "tablet". Many restaurants in East Asia like Korea and China use touchscreen tablets that look exactly like that that are built into restaurant tables so that customers can order from it without talking to a waiter.

That animation for that segue is going to give me nightmares. Thanks, Linus! 😂

the second door wedge tablet with the antenna looks similar to the passport picture station that we have at work, but because it's a wedge, we don't need to mount it on the wall, it just sits on a desk and just does its job, honestly.
