Bobcat

Bobcat is rugged and tough!  It is a powerful 10 inch Windows 10 tablet built for active day-to-day use.  With Grid 3 installed it provides the ideal device for an active person.  Mind Express 4 is also available. 

Check out the video if you want to see Bobcat's ruggedness !

NEWS UPDATE:  We are sorry to announce that Bobcat has been discontinued by the manufacturer. 
Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. our trial and demonstration units will be available for purchase while stock lasts.

We have only one more available as at November 13 2019.

Hire to try then hire price can be deducted from purchase price if it is the right device for you.


Bobcat is the toughest tablet around. As a communication device to take with you it provides all day battery-life and is up to an active pace of life. 

An optional extra to consider is the keyboard.  It turns into a little laptop and the keyboard closes over the display magnetically to make a neat package.

The Bobcat is designed to be carried and accessed directly using the touchscreen.

If you require mounting, ECU or in-built access options the Grid Pad Pro 11 would be the suggested model.

This device is not designed to be mounted, although the cradle can be added for mounting to a VESA compatible mount plate.  Please note this cradle is rather chunky and as robust as the Bobcat.

Even as the toughest device the Bobcat is designed to survive a number of bumps and knocks but it is not indestructible.  It may be dropped daily for a month or two, but then then next time will be one too many.  It survived those bumps and then it didn’t. For this reason the Bobcat  is now supplied with Xplore’s Xdefend Program for 3 years, or upgrade to 5 years. In this program all key system components, except those labelled as consumable parts, are covered. Xplore may elect to repair or replace damaged equipment at Xplore’s discretion, with a model of equal or greater value. Xplore xDEFEND must be purchased as part of the original Xplore tablet PC sale. This is what we are offering here as part of the quoted pricing.  [Xplore Xdefend PDF]
