You may not be very familiar with Blackview, but this Hong Kong-based tech brand has been producing rugged smartphones and tablets for over 11 years. The company's BV9900 Pro is one of our favorite rugged smartphones, notable for its FLIR thermal imaging camera, among other features.
Now, Blackview's new Active 10 Pro rugged tablet is (at least on paper) an equally impressive piece of technology, designed specifically for demanding environments.
The Active 10 Pro is available in black and orange and weighs 1214g. Measuring 267.6 x 179 x 19.5mm, it is a solidly built device with IP68, IP69K and MIL-STD-810H ratings, ensuring it can withstand harsh conditions.
30,000 mAh battery
The tablet, which runs on DokeOS_P 4.0 based on Android 14, features a 10.95-inch FHD+ IPS display with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 and Corning Gorilla Glass 5, along with a 90Hz dynamic refresh rate for smooth visuals. .
The Active 10 Pro is powered by an eight-core MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor, which reaches speeds of up to 2.5 GHz. It offers 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 512 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, expandable up to 2 TB via TF card.
The Active 10 Pro features a sizeable 30,000 mAh battery with 55W fast charging, far outperforming most tablets, including Apple's iPad line. For example, the 13-inch iPad Pro model, Apple's most advanced tablet, has a 10,340 mAh battery, significantly smaller than that of the Active 10 Pro.
The camera setup of the tablet includes a 50MP Samsung JN1 front camera and a 108MP Samsung HM6 rear camera, plus an additional 20MP Sony night vision camera, which promises high-quality images in various lighting conditions.
Audio is provided by two Harman Kardon stereo speakers and for connectivity, it supports dual SIM cards and covers a wide range of network bands from 2G to 5G. The device also offers NFC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 and compatibility with GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and Beidou navigation systems.
The tablet includes an improved glove mode with 30% greater sensitivity, making it easier to use in harsh environments (the tablet can operate in temperatures from -40°C to +60°C). Additionally, it is equipped with a super bright 400 lx camping light, which provides illumination in low light or outdoor situations.
There's no word on the cost or availability of the Active 10 Pro yet, but Blackview's rugged products tend to be competitively priced and offer good value for money for those looking for durability, functionality and a really big battery.
