While the Galaxy Tab Active 5 takes pride in its rugged design, it also has some pretty decent specs. The tablet sports an 8-inch WUXGA display with a 120Hz refresh rate, fortified with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 for enhanced durability and scratch resistance. The display offers adjustable touch sensitivity, catering to users wearing gloves for added convenience. To top it off, the tablet comes equipped with an S Pen, perfect for drawing or writing.
The new rugged tablet is powered by the Exynos 1380 processor, the same one found in the Galaxy Tab S9 FE. The Galaxy Tab Active5 comes with 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and a microSD card slot for expanded memory. It runs on Android 14 from the get-go, with Samsung committing to delivering 4 OS upgrades.
