Rugged Computing

Durabook has introduced an upgraded version of its S14I Semi-rugged Laptop, now equipped with Intel Core Ultra processors that feature a dedicated neural processing unit (NPU). This enhancement makes the laptop capable of handling AI-driven tasks, catering to professionals in industries such as public safety, utilities, and manufacturing.

The upgraded S14I includes dual hot-swappable batteries, offering up to 24 hours of continuous use in dual battery mode. The display has also been improved with a DynaVue sunlight-readable panel that delivers brightness up to 1,200 nits, making it suitable for outdoor use in diverse conditions.

Durabook has announced its rugged U11 Windows 11 tablet will now feature a 12th Generation Intel processor (Intel Core i7-1250U or i5-1230U). The U11's new CPU, an upgrade to Intel's Alder Lake platform, will substantially improve the device’s performance, offering up to 225 percent more speed than the previous 10th Gen CPU.

Additionally, the integration of the Coolfinity fanless thermal solution ensures the tablet operates silently while reducing downtime and repairs, thus increasing productivity. The addition of Intel Iris Xe Graphics propels the U11's computing capacity, capable of processing large volumes of data and video feeds in real-time.
