The technologies being developed and deployed are very repeatable for the SMB space, Stubbs says. The combination of warehouse management software with warehouse execution and/or warehouse control systems allow users to marry up human tasks with automation, he adds, and all of it is scalable.
The TC75x handhelds are based on an Android operating system and possess Bluetooth capabilities and a 4G/LTE connection, hi-res touchscreen and long-lasting battery. The built-in camera and integrated scanner enable fast data acquisition and the exchange of data with in-house IT systems, such as the transmission of shipment and address data. The device can be operated either by PDA pen or finger.
I just loved the snap-open “tricorder” feel of the design, even if it wasn’t terribly user-friendly. The screen got broken in a move or I’d still play Lemmings on it now and then.
Blackview is undoubtedly one of the fastest-growing rugged outdoor smartphone brand globally for 2018. The firm’s “BV” series is one with a strong history wit most of their flagship models belonging to the series. There is a new addition to the lineup, the BV5500 which deviates from the rugged design style of other popular models like the BV9000, 8000, 70000 etc.
“As you look at needs of consumers and warehouses, many are similar,” Boatner says. “Better speed, better and richer and more intuitive interfaces, IP-68 and ruggedness. A lot of those goals are common.”
Now, mind you, the flagship Surface Pro isn’t ideal used on your lap, either, but its wider body can fit across your legs much more naturally, even if you have to be careful not to move too suddenly while balancing the kickstand. With the Surface Go, the lesser body/kickstand width means you have to keep your legs close together, or else it will fall between them. That arrangement is serviceable on my lap for a quick session, but much less so for a long train ride, as it requires you to sit upright and still, and strain your neck a bit. And while the device is nicely made and feels sturdy, it’s not a ruggedized tablet you’ll feel comfortable seeing clatter to the floor.

The Ulefone X2 is the company’s entry-level rugged smartphone, and it supports 3G connectivity. It is easy to notice that the Armor X2 is a rugged smartphone, its design reveals that. The phone has three capacitive buttons below the display, overview, home, and back buttons, while it is made mostly out of metal, and it has some sort of rubber-like material on the back in order to be more grippy. This smartphone comes with two vertically-aligned cameras on the back, while it has a side-facing fingerprint scanner. The phone includes a 5,500mAh battery on the inside, which is one of its main selling points. Facial scanning is also included in the package, and the same can be said for an NFC chip. This smartphone is IP68 certified for water and dust resistance, which is to be expected considering it’s a rugged handset.
The differentiation starts in the design. Like Xiaomi’s Black Shark unique back cover touch design, Blackview BV5500’s best-selling points are of course its toughness and the unique design. It has a thinner ergonomic frame to make its grip more comfortable and easier to hold, while slimming it down compared to similar devices. For hardware, the BV5500 packs a 5.5-inch screen with 18:9 aspect ratio. There is a Corning Gorilla 3 protection on top, giving it some toughness. Its overall design is very small, and there is no shortage of fashion. In this way, it will also be loved by young men and women, not just outdoor workers. The aluminium frame is curved at the edges, making the device feel great to hold.
One of the most significant advantages of augmented reality in the supply chain is its use in training. New hires can often have a hard time finding their way through labyrinthian warehouses and locating products. AR can overlay lined paths to guide new hires exactly where they need to go. Boeing mechanics are known to use Google Glass while assembling airplane wiring so they have diagrams readily available without having to consult papers or mobile devices.
When you combine great battery life and an acceptable camera, the King Kong 3 represents remarkable value for money, and is a decent travel phone for many international destinations.
