The laptop’s 15.6” Full HD display may be the first thing to turn the head of a field service professional, but the CPU performance of the S15 Semi-Rugged Laptop with Intel® Core™ i7 and i5 processors that are up to 206% faster than previously is an eye-opener. Looking past the handsome rugged exterior, at the Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics package, ultra-reliable connectivity, and the ability to operate as a workstation configured with up to three storage drives, this is the ideal rugged laptop for field services workers.

The S15 Semi-Rugged Laptop is a good companion device for field services personnel from the utilities, automotive, construction, and logistics industries, as well as public safety, and governmental agencies and organizations where work is conducted in precarious conditions.

“New and emerging network and IT technologies are throwing the doors open for field personnel to perform much more sophisticated, meaningful, and actionable functions at even the most remote sites,” said Sasha Wang, president, Durabook Americas. “Durabook undertook this powerful set of upgrades to its S15 Semi-Rugged Laptop to empower field professionals with high performance and strong functionality that its ruggedness belies.”
