Samsung has announced a couple of new rugged devices for enterprise customers in the USA. The Galaxy XCover 6 Pro and the Galaxy Tab Active 4 Pro are now official stateside, with one device hitting the market today.
The Galaxy Tab Active 4 Pro is the first to go on sale through Samsung’s business portal, as well as via Amazon Business and other tier one and tier two IT channel partners.

Both can be acquired with Wi-Fi-only connectivity or 5G, supporting Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile networks. The 5G variants cost $759 and $819, respectively.
Samsung’s latest rugged tablet is powered by a Snapdragon 778G 5G chipset. It’s equipped with a 10.1-inch display that has a resolution of 1920 x 1200 and a peak brightness of 550 nits. The panel supports the S Pen and the tablet ships with Samsung DeX.
