Who’s the leader in mobile OS market share for ruggedized devices? | Windows 10 Handheld Scanner

Admittedly, Google has consigned many apps that won’t play by its rules to the bin recently. But Poptel needs to push out a new OS release and remove the offending app as part of that upgrade before some customers start to think the worst.

Drivers interact with UPSNav using the screen on their handheld DIAD (Delivery Information Acquisition Device) units, which are mounted to the driver’s dashboard for hands-free operation. The unit displays a map showing drivers where to turn, emitting tones to notify them when to slow for a delivery or pickup stop, and exactly where to stop once they have arrived at a destination.

The fans in the tablet fire up more often than some competitors, but they also don’t get particularly loud unless you’re doing something very processor-intensive. Most of the time they’re inaudible in an office environment.

With Windows no longer a viable option for many enterprises, Android has emerged as the top contender for an operating system compatible with the rugged environment. According to a VDC Research report, Android OS share grew from 24% to 37% of all rugged handheld devices from 2015 to 2016, while Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5X/Windows Mobile fell from 49% to 39% during that time.

The specification of this phone mirrors a large number of Chinese-produced devices we’ve seen. They all use the MediaTek MT6763T (Helio P23) octa-core processor and ARM Mali G71 MP2 GPU combination, and on the Armor 3, this CPU is clocked to its maximum 2.5GHz.

And, it’s spreading. The Tier 1 companies that are doing everything they can have moved through multiple generations of scanning, edge computing and Industry 4.0-style analytics. The big push now, according to Honeywell’s Stubbs, is adoption among small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).

Last year the company also introduced Windows 10 S… a version of the operating system that takes a less-is-more approach by restricting users from running applications downloaded from sources other than the Microsoft Store. The idea is to offer better performance, improved security, and automatic updates… much like Google’s Chrome OS. It’s not surprising that Windows 10 S was originally targeted at the education market, which is currently dominated by Chromebooks.

Left unsaid was the general status of Windows 7-to-Windows 10 migrations by commercial customers. The Windows 7 ESU was almost certainly a response to customers telling Microsoft that they would not make the Jan. 14, 2020, deadline, or at least a realization by the company that, for all its aggressive efforts to push aside the older OS, enterprises would not finish their upgrades in time.

Granted, we’ve known some of the differences from the beginning, and we’ve vaguely understood that there would be trade-offs for those moving to this new hardware platform. In particular, the performance of x86 apps, which would need to be emulated.

Richeson, who was 29 at the time of his death, was a Granville High School and Ohio University graduate, and a captain in the Ohio Air National Guard 121st Air Refueling Wing at Rickenbacker Air Force Base.

In more general, anecdotal use, I found the Surface Go’s responsiveness perfectly adequate for everyday tasks. Open too many visually demanding applications, or launch too many browser tabs at once, and it will slow down. But it ran fine for web browsing, word processing, and light multitasking in my experience.
