Panasonic reveals ToughPad FZ-G1, the ‘world’s thinnest and lightest’ rugged Windows 8 tablet

fz-g1 panasonic

Panasonic has announced the Toughpad FZ-G1, which it describes as the world’s thinnest and lightest rugged Windows 8 tablet. It has a 10.1-inch IPS display, Ivy Bridge processor, and 3G or 4G connectivity, along with features suited to work in the field like a replaceable extended battery, cradle dock, 360-degree handle case, and digitizer pen.


It’s also 120cm shock resistant, and while Panasonic is calling it “thin and light” you’ll unsurprisingly be taking a bit of a portability hit to get that added protection; physically, it looks very similar to the Android-powered ToughPad A1 that we saw last year. The company also announced the new ToughPad B1, a 7-inch version of the A1, and is working on a 7-inch Windows 8 rugged tablet along…

Watch The World’s Thinnest Smartphone Pound A Nail Into A Board

Oppo-Finder

The Oppo Finder currently holds the ridiculous title of being the thinnest smartphone in the globe. Determining in at a svelte 6.65 mm, the Finder is 1.95 mm and 2.75 thinner than the Galaxy S III and iPhone 4S, respectively. But the thin size doesn ’ t mean the phone is vulnerable. In fact the company recently showed the phone ’ s toughness by utilizing it to hammer numerous nails into a wooden board.

The Oppo Finder is available sans an agreement for ¥ 2,498 ($ 393). The slim phone packs an impressive range of specs, too. Behind the 4.3-inch Super AMOLED And screen rests a dual-core 1.5 GHz chip and 1GB of RAM, which powers an Android 4.0 install. Plus, as shown above, the phone can easily take beating.

Olympus creates world’s thinnest industrial videoscope, packs HDR (video)

Filed Under Cameras Olympus creates world's thinnest industrial videoscope, packs HDR (video)

Though its medical brethren are considerably slimmer, at 2.4mm in diameter, Olympus says its iPLEX TX is the most slender industrial videoscope on our big blue marble. Rather than using traditional fiber optics to capture footage reminiscent of comic book print, the iPLEX TX houses a miniature CMOS atop one end of the scope and an HDR image processing technology called WiDER to preserve detail and brighten images. The eagle-eyed scope is also 200 times more resistant to frictional wear than fiberscopes and has over double the slip strength. If you’re itching to poke inside impossibly cramped and complex pieces of machinery, jump past the break to catch a glimpse of the video-enabled snake in action from DigInfo.tv.

Samsung intros ‘world’s thinnest’ external DVD writer, tries to convince you to pack it with your tablet

Image

Generally, a new optical disk drive is nothing to write home about, but how about one that’s specifically purposed for tablets and Ultrabooks? That’s the pitch Samsung is selling for its SE-218BB DVD / CD writer, which the company also notes as being the world’s thinnest external ODD — because what better to go with your svelte computing devices than more pluggable doohickeys. Cynicism aside, Samsung says this $ 60 add-on is just 14mm tall, “18 percent thinner than conventional DVD writers” and eight percent less weighty than its standard DVD ODD. The bus-powered unit connects via USB, and it’ll work with Macs, PCs and devices running Android 3.1 and up. Oddly fascinated? The drive is currently on-sale worldwide if you’re willing carry it along with you. You’ll find full details in the press release after the break.

Toshiba Intros World’s Thinnest And Lightest 10″ Tablet: The Excite X10 LE

x10

When Toshiba first entered the tablet space, they specifically told us “we’re not focusing on thin and light, we’re focusing on usability.” This was true — both the Thrive and Thrive 7″ have a host of ports and the big guy even has a removable battery.

But it would seem that Toshiba is ready to switch up the strategy, as the company is today announcing the world’s thinnest and lightest 10-inch tablet, the Excite X10 LE.

Not sure where the whole “LE” thing came from so let’s just ignore that. The X10 has a brushed magnesium alloy back panel and only weighs 1.18lbs with a waistline of 7.7mm. For some perspective, the Droid Razr is 7.1mm thick.

The slate runs Android 3.2 Honeycomb, but Toshiba and I talked tirelessly about this and you can rest assured the X10 will run Ice Cream Sandwich by the end of spring. Past that, you’ll have a 1280×800 10.1-inch AutoBrite display, along with a OMAP 4430 1.2GHz dual-core processor.

Portage seems to be Toshiba’s specialty, and even as such a thin slate, the X10 still makes room for the necessary connectivity. MicroUSB, HDMI, and microSD slots are all included, along with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support. On the back you’ll find a 5-megapixel camera capable of video capture in 1080p, along with a 2-megapixel front-facing shooter for video chat.

The Excite X10 comes in both 16- and 32GB flavors for $ 529 and $ 599 respectively.

Toshiba’s New Excite X10 Tablet Is World’s Thinnest 10-Inch (For Now)

Toshiba Excite X10

So much excitement. This is my first CES and while MG may be correct to think that some of my fellow tech bloggers find this trip a tad tedious, I’m pink with barely controlled glee just from being here. But I’ve been excited about CES for a few weeks now, ever since I went to meet with Toshiba and get a sneak peek at their latest tablet.

The Excite X10 is now the world’s thinnest 10-inch tablet, measuring in at just .3 inches thick and weighing just 1.2 lbs. But don’t forget that the iPad 3 is presumably just around the corner (along with quite a few Android slates this week), so anything can change. A brushed magnesium alloy finish graces its backside, with Corning Gorilla glass up front to prevent any scratching. It’s really a beauty.

Under the hood you’ll find a TI OMAP 4420 1.2GHz dual-core processor along with 1GB of RAM. As far as the OS goes, however, Toshiba was a bit iffy. The tablet will either ship in mid Q1 with Android 3.2 Honeycomb, or a bit later with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather wait a bit longer for Ice Cream Sandwich.

The 10-inch screen boasts a resolution of 1280×800, and is built with a special direct bonding technology that allows for such a thin profile. A 2-megapixel front-facing shooter is present and accounted for if you’re into video chat, and a 5-megapixel shooter can be found on the backside of the tab.

Toshiba’s all about the ports, and has been with each tablet offering it’s brought to market. With the Excite X10, you’ll have access to a micro USB, mini HDMI out, and micro SD card slot. Obviously full-sized ports are more accessible, but fitting these smaller connectivity points onto such a thin tablet is commendable nonetheless.

Toshiba is also rather good at leaving Android alone, and has thus implemented very little of its own software. That includes its own media player featuring DNLA compatibility (which has been revamped from previous versions and looks much cleaner), Toshiba’s File Manager, Netflix, and QuickOffice. Toshiba’s also added an app to let you screen grab which has been sorely missing in Android for longer than I care to think about.

Android tablets have been quite the flop in the past year (with the exception of the Kindle Fire, sort of), but I have a good feeling about 2012 Android slates if this is the type of stuff we’re going to see.

Pricing is still unclear for this guy, but with its premium status I’d assume it’ll face off against the iPad more so than the Kindle Fire.

(Note on images: Regza is the tablet’s Asian name, and won’t appear on U.S. units)

Acer Unveils Thinnest Ultrabook At 15mm: The Aspire S5

acer-aspire_s5-580x431

Just as we expected, the first of what I’m sure will be plenty of ultrabooks has just showed itself at the CES International show in Las Vegas. Acer just announced what they’re calling the world’s thinnest ultrabook: the Acer Aspire S5.

Just 15mm thick at its thickest point, the 13.3-inch ultrabook sports a magnesium alloy cover, with all of the same requirements were seeing out of ultrabooks like InstantOn technology. There’s also a creative use of space on the S5 with a bevy of ports including HDMI, USB 3.0, and Thunderbolt ports along with an SSD.

Shipping is expected to begin in Q2.

Fujitsu Arrows F-07D nabs ‘thinnest smartphone’ title, Droid Razr retorts: ‘real phones have (some) curves’

Do you see that? It’s the Fujitsu Arrows F-07D. Unlike some phones we won’t mention, it doesn’t boast about being the world’s thinnest (and it doesn’t come with a 10.6mm hump at one end). No, this telephone is 6.7mm all the way along — so svelte the brave boys at the FCC probably had to pop next door to borrow a ruler that measures things that small. The 109-gram device has a measly 4-inch 800 x 480 OLED display and a five megapixel camera, but you might have noticed that it’s also quite thin. NTT DoCoMo’s newest telephone also crams in a FOMA module, making it capable of HSPA-level 14Mb/s download speeds. Just be careful it doesn’t blow away in the wind — personally, we’ve always preferred smartphones that give us a little something to hold onto.
