Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3 8.0 - Rugged build, removable battery, S-Pen with IP68 rating - Android

The Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3 is an 8-inch tablet that can survive being dropped from 5 feet high. It also comes with an equally rugged S Pen with IP68 certification.

Unlike regular tablets, the Galaxy Tab Active 3 has physical buttons below the screen, with the middle one doubling as a fingerprint scanner. The bezels themselves are also noticeably large to protect the actual screen panel from drops.

As for the rest of the specs, this one is powered by an Exynos 9810 — the same flagship CPU that powered the Galaxy Note 9. It has a 5,050mAh battery, which is removable, so you can swap a fresh one once it runs out of juice. Another notable feature is the docking pins, so you can plug it in quickly.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 has a starting price of USD489 (around Php23,500) and is primarily marketed to enterprise clients.
