The Algiz RT7’s physical design balances ruggedness and lightweight ergonomics — without compromising either. Algiz RT7 was designed from the inside out to be comfortable to hold and easy to carry, resulting in a tablet that weighs just 650 grams. Yet the Algiz RT7 also meets stringent MIL-STD-810G military standards for withstanding extreme temperatures, drops and vibrations, and its IP65 rating means it’s waterproof and fully protected against sand and dust.
Despite its compact size, the Algiz RT7 doesn’t skimp on battery life or connectivity options. It carries a powerful and rechargeable Li-Ion battery for long days in the field. LTE compatibility keeps your team connected without lag time, anywhere you go. The Algiz RT7 includes a built-in 8-megapixel camera and offers several port options including USB, Ethernet, micro-USB and headphone and microphone jacks — so you can attach any additional equipment you need to do your job. And for optimum versatility, the Algiz RT7 provides user-accessible dual SIM card slots.
An excellent and ultra-lightweight, user-friendly Android tablet that delivers heavyweight performance for a wide variety of field tasks.
