Panasonic Toughpad FZ-M1 MK3, Rugged Tablet, 7'' WXGA Touch Screen with Stylus, Core i5-7Y57, 8GB, 128GB SSD, 4G LTE, Windows 11 Pro (Renewed)

Outstanding price on this device. I have several in "renewed" condition, but none were in the condition of this unit. It looks and works as if it were new. All ports are fully operational, GPS is working without issue. Surprised that it is running Win11 as well as it is. If you need a small, portable computer, this is by far one of the best on the market!

Nice little Toughbook but the one I got smells of perfume one the sides. Someone must have washed their hands in perfume before touching it... it's really that bad. What is nice is this is the Mk3 version so it's the latest version of the FZ-M1 which has a more recent processor. It's a great tablet overall.

Complete rip off. This unit glitches out constantly. The stylus that comes with it doesn’t even work. Battery life sucks. Windows OS is not the same as on a laptop or other tablet.

This is a hidden gem of a tablet. I’m a field technician and this mini computer checks all the boxes that I’m requiring it to do. My other colleagues purchased Surface Pros and I used theirs for a few days to see “test drive”. However, I found it too big and bulky and often times it was used like a laptop, needing space to set it down etc. I got this one instead and after a few days, I knew this was the perfect fit. While using it in the field, my FZ-M1 can tuck it in tight spaces, prop it up and not obstruct things. Aside from using it in the field, I can also casually use around the home like a kindle. I prefer to use it in portrait mode, feels more balanced on my hand. Also feels natural, since we use our phone the same orientation. It’s a nice break from having to sit down in my office and look at my bigger monitors. Feels like having a windows 11 phone, but with a larger screen that phone to use it effectively. The advantage of maybe having a full tablet screen is being able to collaborate with others, so those looking over your shoulder with this tablet would have a hard time reading what you’re working on. But since I work mostly alone, I don’t need to full size tablet. Reading text and manuals is just like reading on your phone. If you need to show them something on this tablet, they’ll need to actually hold it to best adjust their own reading distance. I haven’t dropped it yet, nor do I plan to, when it does happen, I the have a peace of mind knowing it can withstand it. Battery life, I’m using a software that just meets the recommended requirements that this version of FZ-M1 can provide. At set it to always on battery saving mode and airplane mode, I get about 3 hours continuous use. I already ordered an extended battery and the docking bay to charge both spare and tablet. I’ll have have more than enough juice to last me for a whole day. I didn’t buy a case, since it’s already rugged. I did buy stylus holder, the stick-on style with a small pen loop, because the current style holder attached on the hand strap, I prefer it store my stylus near the edge. Hope this helps anyone on the fence about purchasing one. There are very few YouTube videos to get any varied reviews. So I was excited to get a hold of it to see for myself, and it has not disappointed.

Works but smells like perfume, terrible perfume.

The unit I got was basically brand new. It works great. No complaints.
