Samsung just dropped a new rugged tablet in India — the Galaxy Tab Active5 Enterprise Edition — and it’s clearly built for people who work in tough conditions. Think logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, retail, even defence. Priced starting at ₹49,999, this tablet isn’t really designed for your Netflix binges—it’s a serious business device with some very cool tricks.
What makes the Galaxy Tab Active5 special?
For starters, this isn’t your regular glass-and-metal tablet that screams “handle with care.” The Galaxy Tab Active5 is MIL-STD-810H certified for military-grade toughness, comes with Gorilla Glass 5, and even ships with an IP68-rated S Pen that can handle dust and water.
It’s got an 8-inch display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, powered by an octa-core processor. Depending on how much muscle you need, you can pick between 6GB RAM + 128GB storage or 8GB RAM + 256GB storage (and yes, storage expands up to 1TB with a microSD card).

Battery that keeps up with you
This thing comes with a replaceable 5,050mAh battery. That means when it wears out, you don’t need to replace the device—just swap the battery. There’s also a clever “No Battery Mode” so the tablet can run directly on power without needing the battery inside. Perfect for kiosks, factories, or places it stays plugged in all day.
Designed for work, not play
Samsung is clearly pitching this to enterprises. Buyers get:
- 36-month warranty (12 months for battery)
- 7 years of software updates (huge for Android devices)
- Samsung Knox Suite (12-month subscription) for enterprise security
- Brity Works collaboration tools and limited access to Brity Copilot (AI-based)
- Push-to-talk via Zello (free until Dec 2025)
- Discounts on Google Workspace for small and medium businesses
You also get enterprise goodies like loud speakers (works even in noisy areas), programmable keys (hello, walkie-talkie mode), biometric security, and full support for 5G, LTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 and NFC.

Final thoughts
If you’re someone who just needs an Android tablet for watching YouTube or browsing, this is definitely overkill. But for companies and frontline workers who need something that can take a beating, keep running all day, and stay secure—Samsung’s Galaxy Tab Active5 looks like a solid package.
