Panasonic launched its newly upgraded TOUGHBOOK 31 laptop computer.

“The newly enhanced device is addressing the ever‐changing needs of mobile workers in demanding industries, including utilities, public sector and federal government professionals,” said Brian Rowley, vice president of marketing and product management, Panasonic System Solutions Company of North America. “In industries where failure is not an option, the TOUGHBOOK 31’s improved features and faster processing power will provide customers with the competitive edge they need to keep working, no matter the challenges.”

Upgraded with the latest Intel® Core™ i5‐7300U vPro™ processor, the TOUGHBOOK 31 offers enhanced graphics, standard features such as faster 16 GB DDR4 memory and a 256GB SSD, an advanced LTE module, in addition to several additional new improvements.
