- 8849 TANK Pad Ultra 1080p projector projects precisely clear images from 0.5 to 4 meters
- Night vision camera takes usable pictures even in almost total darkness
- Robust chassis resists drops, dust and water in harsh environments
The 8849 TANK Pad Ultra is a rugged Android tablet that combines a 10.95-inch FHD 1200 x 1920 display with a built-in 1080p DLP projector rated at 260 lumens.
The projector can autofocus and project images from 0.5 to 4 meters, supported by a micro-ranging laser that helps fine-tune the focal length.
The design is intended for outdoor use, temporary presentations and field work where a separate projector would be impractical or expensive.

Night-Vision camera and robust features
The 8849 TANK Pad Ultra features a 10.95-inch FHD panel, flanked by stereo speakers that use a smart PA configuration and a waterproof receiver for calls.
On the back, it houses the projector lens, night vision camera cluster, and a 2.5-inch speaker cutout, while the side and bottom edges host the charging port, PTT keys, and waterproof connector caps.
The tablet’s IP-rated, reinforced chassis aims to withstand drops, dust and moisture, while the projector remains closed and protected when not in use.
On the imaging side, the TANK Pad Ultra stacks a 50MP main camera on the rear with an IMX766 sensor and a 64MP AF night vision camera using an OV64B sensor.
The night vision array adds four infrared LEDs that illuminate scenes in near-total darkness, allowing the camera to take usable images without a visible light.
The rugged tablet also includes a camping light module with red and blue warning lights, magnetic modular accessories and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Buttons for power, volume and two PTT keys are built into the rugged frame, which is designed to work with protective leather handheld covers and waterproof interface connectors.
Under the hood, the tablet runs a MediaTek Dimensity 8200 platform with 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 512GB of internal storage.
It supports 5G NR on both FDD and TDD bands along with LTE Advanced, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3, enabling fast wireless data and screen mirroring to external displays.
The device includes dual-band GPS, Glonass, Galileo and Beidou for relatively accurate location tracking, as well as NFC for reading and map mode interactions.
A 23,400 mAh battery delivers long run time, replenished via a 66W USB-C fast charge input, with the same port doubling as a reverse charge source for other gadgets.
This device also supports dual nano SIM cards plus a microSD card for further storage expansion and comes with Android 15 out of the box.
The 8849 TANK Pad Ultra is available now for $599.
