The OneRugged M82A isn’t built for boardrooms, it’s built for dust, drops, and data in the field. This ultra-durable 8-inch tablet runs full Windows and packs serious heat with 12th Gen Intel processors, all inside a MIL-STD-810H-certified shell.
OneRugged M82A trades size for strength

While most rugged Windows tablets stretch into 10- or 12-inch territory, the OneRugged M82A shrinks things down to 8 inches without cutting power. Its FHD display pushes 550 nits of brightness, which helps it stay readable even under harsh sunlight. And thanks to the IP67 rating, the tablet can handle more than just splashes, it survives submersion and extreme heat or cold, ranging from -20°C to 60°C.
Weighing in at 850 grams, it’s chunkier than a standard slate, but that bulk brings benefits.
Compact, but loaded with hardware
Don’t let the size fool you. Inside, the M82A carries Intel’s 12th Gen Core i5 or i7 chips with Iris Xe graphics, up to 16 GB of RAM, and 512 GB SSD storage. There’s active cooling under the hood too, meaning this machine won’t overheat during demanding tasks like mapping, scanning, or field diagnostics.
Battery life leans on a 43.32 Wh unit with support for 48 W charging enough to push through most workdays.
Ports and extras push the M82A beyond basics
Function matters more than looks here, and OneRugged didn’t skimp on connectivity.
It comes equipped with:
- USB-C and USB-A ports
- A microSD card slot
- RJ45 Ethernet
- 3.5 mm headphone jack
- NFC and 4G support
- Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3
- Barcode scanner module
- Fingerprint sensor
It also includes stylus support, making it easier to take notes or fill forms on the fly.
OneRugged M82A is made for the field, not the desk
This isn’t a media tablet or casual browsing slab, it’s built to work where laptops fear to tread. Whether you’re in logistics, utilities, or remote operations, the M82A handles dust, shock, and cold with ease and does it without missing a beat.
