Getac unveils B300 ruggedized notebook with Core i7 Skylake options

Getac specializes in rugged notebooks and tablets and has now updated its B300 series to include Skylake options up to a Core i7 ULV CPU. The military-grade systems start at around 3900 Euros with a wide range of optional accessories to better fit niche scenarios or demanding outdoor environments.

The following processor options are available on the fully-rugged B300 system: 

• Intel Core i5-6200U
• Intel Core i5-6300U vPro
• Intel Core i7-6500U
• Intel Core i7-6600U vPro

Getac promises both better computing power and efficiency when upgrading to the Skylake option. Other updated features include the integrated HD Graphics 520 GT2, 802.11ac wireless, and Bluetooth 4.2. Protection against unauthorized access will also be strengthened.

Battery life is advertised to be 15 hours with an optional secondary battery for up to 30 hours of use. The notebook, after all, will more than likely be used in outdoor environments where AC power can be limited. More details and specifications on the B300 can be found at the source below.
