Rated to endure a 900 mm drop, the notebook is lightweight at 2.5 kg with an eight-hour rated battery life and a low heat generation profile for optimised performance versus battery and heat dissipation.
 
It comes with a magnesium alloy casing and durable rubber corners and seals designed to withstand vibration, drops, spills, extreme environments and severe changes in temperature and can even withstand strong showers of water with power being
IP54 rated. It also meets MIL, CENELEC industry standards.
