According to a release from the company, the Nautiz X8 is a handheld computer with processing power, screen performance and battery life. It is built for tough field conditions primarily in GIS, land surveying, public safety, forestry and the military.



Handheld said the Nautiz X8 is built to enable data collection in the toughest of environments. It has an IP67 ingress protection rating, which means it offers complete protection against dust and sand and can withstand immersion in water.

It also meets stringent MIL-STD-810G military test standards for overall durability and resistance to humidity, shock, vibration, drops, salt and extreme temperatures.


This new dynamic handheld computer features a Texas Instruments 4470 dual-core 1.5 GHz processor.

It has 1 GB of RAM, 4 GB of iNAND Flash and a 5200 mAh Li-ion battery that lasts up to 12 hours on a single charge. And it comes with a choice of operating systems - Android 4.2.2 or Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5.3.

"The new Nautiz X8 is the world's best rugged handheld computer, with exceptional durability, connectivity, processing power and battery life - without compromising ergonomics or design," says Jerker Hellstrom, CEO of Handheld Group. "Its capacitive touchscreen is in a class of its own: incredibly bright and very large for a PDA and, of course, chemically strengthened to withstand rough handling in the field. Field workers all over the world will love this new PDA and treat it with the tough love it deserves." The Handheld Group is a manufacturer of rugged mobile computers, PDAs and tablets.
