• The Mesa 2 runs full Windows 10 whereas all Juniper handhelds before it ran one or another version of Microsoft's Windows Mobile/Windows Embedded Handheld OS for small devices. That's a major step, but one that makes plenty of sense for two reasons. First, smaller devices are now powerful enough to run full Windows. Second, the days of Windows Mobile/Embedded Handheld are finally numbered. In Microsoft's new Windows 10 world, it is being replaced with with special versions of Windows 10. So Juniper is ahead of the game.

• The Mesa 2's 7.0-inch screen is larger than any current smartphone and definitely puts it into the small tablet range. Which is really needed if you want to run full Windows. The 1280 x 800 pixel resolution is super-sharp, right up there with what Apple calls "retina" resolution. We're talking 216 pixels per inch (ppi), far higher than the original Mesa's 140 ppi, and actually sharper than Dell's 24-inch UltraSharp 4k monitors.

  

• The Mesa 2 comes with projected capacitive multi-touch. Procap — with its super-easy tapping, panning, pinching and zooming — has taken the world by storm ever since the original iPhone. Procap isn't a natural for Windows, not even Windows 10 (unless you spend most of your time in the operating system's "tablet" view), but the Mesa 2 comes with a narrow-tip stylus which helps a lot. And Juniper says their version is glove and wet-capable.

• The Mesa 2's quad-core 1.33GHz Z3745 processor is part of Intel's well received "Bay Trail" lineup. This chip was specifically designed by Intel to provide full Windows performance in small tablet devices such as the Mesa 2, while still delivering exceptional battery life.

• The Mesa 2's tablet-sized housing allows for significant battery power. The standard 39 watt-hour intelligent Lithium-Ion pack is good for 8-10 hours. An optional internal second 19 watt-hour battery boosts that to 12-15 hours.

  

• The Mesa 2 has a wide operating temperature range of -4 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. While not quite as extreme as that of the company's Archer 2 rugged handheld (which can go as low as -22 degrees Fahrenheit and as high as 140 degrees), this makes the Mesa 2 suitable for deployment in just about any environmental setting, even freezers.

• As far as the ever-popular drop testing goes, the Mesa 2 survives multiple drops from four feet onto concrete. That's again a bit less than the super-rugged Archer 2, but remarkable considering that the Mesa 2 is a larger, heavier device. And four feet is the distance a tablet would drop when in mobile use, so that makes sense.

  For ingress protection, the Mesa 2 scores a perfect IP68. That's as high as it gets. The first number stands for protection against solids. 6 means the unit is totally protected against the finest dust. The second number is for the degree of protection from liquids. That scale goes from 0 (no protection) to 8 (totally immune to water, even extended immersion). The Mesa 2 is the only rugged tablet we know of with a certified IP68 rating (Juniper tested at 1.4 meters for two hours). And it's protected even while ports are in use! Now THAT's impressive!

• As is Juniper's custom, the Mesa 2 is available as a standard model and also a special Mesa Geo model. And a Barcode model and an RFID model. All can accommodate Bluetooth 4.0 with enhanced data rate, dual-band 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi and 4G LTE radio of the Verizon or GSM variety. GEO models additionally have a 8.0mp camera with autofocus and Juniper's geotagging, as well as uBlox NEO-M8T GPS with integrated real-time SBAS.

A new field computing machine for a different world

Tough and rugged handhelds — the likes of which Juniper's core customers have been using for going on a couple of decades — really hadn't changed much in many years. In the early days of handheld computers, most had proprietary operating systems. This changed in 1996 when Microsoft introduced Windows CE. CE was designed to run on minimal hardware with very small displays. For many years, the typical handheld used in the field had a 3.5-inch display with 240 x 320 pixel QVGA resolution. This was good enough to run specially designed software for the field. Palm OS devices were the only competition, and those were primarily for consumers and for business. Once Palm imploded, Microsoft let Windows CE and Windows Mobile (Windows Mobile is essentially a more user-friendly interface with some extra utilities on top of Windows CE) stagnate. That didn't matter too much until the iPhone arrived and showed the world that handhelds could so so much more. And the rest is history.

While the original Mesa was somewhat hard to classify with its, for the time, unusually large display, the Mesa 2 is clearly in the small tablet category. But unlike most current tablets, the Mesa 2's labeling and hardware controls show that Juniper designed it to primarily be used in portrait mode. So in that sense, it's still more like a handheld than a tablet.

Materials, colors and design are trademark Juniper — light-gray ABS plastic with orange bumpers. There's no need for a Juniper logo. You know it's a Juniper when you see one just by its color scheme.

The Mesa 2 doesn't have the visual heft of the original Mesa. Nor does it have that model's imposing magnesium top. Instead, it has the contemporary tablet look with some physical controls added for easiest-possible operation. The buttons are slightly concave so that you can feel with your finger when you're on a button without even looking at the device. And the buttons also provide a comforting link to the past where all handheld PCs had that central navigation diamond and then function buttons to the left and right of it. They still come in handy.

Whereas consumer tablets usually have an all-glass front (which makes it almost mandatory to stick them in a case), as a rugged device the Mesa 2 adds protection with a housing that is slightly raised around the perimeter. But since you don't want a tall, blocky perimeter around a capacitive multi-touch display for your fingers to bop into, Juniper kept the elevation of the protective perimeter at a minimum and made it sloped. Your fingers feel that border, but it won't affect touch operation.

That said, procap displays benefit from having smooth glass go well beyond the perimeter of the actual LCD so you can easily pinch and zoom near the perimeter of the display. Here we'd have liked to see a bit more than the roughly 1/8th inch of extra glass past the LCD before the finger runs into the (thin) plastic bezel.

Like most ultra-rugged and tightly sealed devices, the Mesa 2 has as few I/O openings as possible. Going around the unit, the left side of the Mesa 2 features a surface mount docking connector, and the bottom has a power jack, a full-size USB 3.0 port, a microphone/speaker jack, and a storage slot for the stylus. Other than two hand strap attachment points on each long side, that's it.

So all that said, let's take a look at the Mesa 2's construction and how it all fits together. The image below shows the backside of the Mesa 2 and next to it the backside with the battery compartment cover removed. Sealing of the compartment is via its plastic cover whose hard plastic lip presses against a replaceable rubber ribbon o-ring seal around the perimeter of the battery compartment. The cover locks into place via a spring-loaded lever. It is not likely that the battery will be released accidentally. The Li-Ion battery of the Mesa 2, sourced from Excell Battery Company, is a square block measuring roughly 2.9 x 2.9 inches and 3/4 of a inch thick. Voltage is 3.65V, amperage 10.6Ah, making for 38.7 watt-hours.

Below on the left is the backside of the Mesa 2 with the battery removed. The battery compartment contains a Micro SIM and a Micro SD card slot. And now we're getting to taking the Mesa 2 apart. The below right picture shows how the four sturdy gray/orange corner bumpers of the Mesa 2 come off after undoing two small Philips screws each. Underneath the bumpers are four anchored metal clips that serve as lanyard loops. They easily pop off. Now there is access to all 11 of the Philips screws that hold the housing of the Mesa 2 together.

There are no wire connections between the two halves, and the halves separate easily. There are also no clips or tabs that need to be pried apart (and can easily be damaged).

As for the housing material used by Juniper for the Mesa 2, we initially thought it was a generic ABS plastic. We should have known better. It's, in fact, a PC-siloxane copolymer blend that excels at resistance to chemicals and very low temperature impact.

Sealing between the two halves of the Mesa 2 is accomplished with a replaceable light-gray o-ring seal that sits in a complex groove around the entire perimeter of the device. The seal sits loosely in its channel, so carefully examine it before reassembly; improper seating may squash the seal and facilitate leaking.

The top part of the Mesa 2, shown below on the left, contains all electronics and other parts. Structurally it consists of the plastic front half upon which is mounted an intricate magnesium (or aluminum) frame that was quite obviously custom designed for the Mesa 2. The frame is mounted onto the front part of the housing with over a dozen small Torx T5 screws.

The bottom half of the Mesa 2 housing, shown below on the right, contains no electronics or other parts except the tablet's 1 watt/8 ohm speaker with surface mount contacts, and a metal tube that serves as the unit's stylus garage. The speaker is sealed to the outside with a thick bead of white silicone glue.

Now let's take a closer look at the circuits and components. Prominent is the Mesa 2's (optional) internal 3.65V/5.3Ah/19.35 watt-hour Li-Ion battery. Combined with the replaceable externally accessible 38.7 watt-hour battery, this means a combined total of 58 watt-hours of battery power. That's a lot for a small tablet. More, in fact, that many large tablets and even laptops have.

A lot of the connectivity inside the Mesa 2 is done via Amphenol interconnect components. If you haven't heard of Amphenol you're not alone. The company has quietly been making all sorts of interconnect products since 1932. They have 45,000 employees and 2015 sales of US$5.5 billion, i.e. almost as much as the entire worldwide market for all rugged computing products which, according to VDC, is about US$6 billion (if you're interested, here's the catalog of what Amphenol makes). From what we can tell, Juniper took advantage of Amphenol's expertise in LDS antenna component manufacturing, though we're not sure if these are actual LDS (laser direct structuring) components, or if the 3D molded constructs are just the mounting surfaces for antenna foils.

Also prominently visible are the embedded M6E Nano UHF-RFID reader (see spec page) module from ThingMagic, which is a brand of JADAK, and the u-blox NEO-M8N GNSS module for positioning.

A noteworthy feature of about the M8N is that it can track up to three of the four available GNSS systems concurrently, those being GPS (the US system), GLONASS (the Russian version of GPS), the European Galileo, and the Chinese BeiDou. The ability to track three of those systems means potentially triple the number of available satellites, making for quick starts, very good accuracy, and superior coverage.

As far as I/O goes, external ports are often a weak point in the sealing of a device, because the sealing entirely relies on whatever port protection there is via covers or rubber plugs. Juniper knows that and came up with a different solution: the ports are actually outside of the inner, sealed part of the Mesa 2. That means that only the flat ribbon cables connection the ports to the interior of the device must be sealed, which is much easier and far less prone to leakage. Separating I/O from the motherboard also means that Juniper can easily change the I/O block (updates, replacement of damaged, customized options).

After all was said and done, Juniper decided on a chip from Intel's selection of Atom processors for smartphones and tablets. So the Mesa 2's computing power comes from a 1.33GHz quad-core Intel Z3745 CPU that can reach burst speeds up to 1.86GHz. It belongs to Intel's "Bay Trail" platform that employs 22nm process technology and represents a major advance in Atom microprocessor design. Note that what Intel calls turbo boost in its high-end Core processors is called "burst frequency" in the Bay Trail lineup.

Compared to Intel's early Atom processors used in all those millions of netbooks that flooded the market before tablets took over, the newer generations of Atom chips are remarkably more powerful and easily capable of running full Windows at a brisk pace. These new Atom chips actually offer more performance than high-end (and much more expensive) Core processors of just a few years ago.

To see how the quad-core Z3745 fares in the Juniper Mesa 2, we used Passmark Software's PerformanceTest 6.1 that runs about 30 tests covering CPU, 2D graphics, 3D graphics, memory, and disk and then computes scores for each category and an overall PassMark score. We also ran our secondary standard benchmark suit, CrystalMark. For comparison, we're listing our benchmark results for a variety of other compact rugged tablets RuggedPCReview has recently tested. Note that these are for the most part not direct competitors. In vertical markets each device has its target deployments and target audience and is configured accordingly. The results are as follows:

The results show that the Mesa 2 is right in the thick of things performancewise, with bottomline benchmark figures that are better than those of a full-size, high-end rugged laptop of a few years ago.

Battery technology has advanced quite a bit from the early days of handheld computers, but finding the right balance performance, battery life, size, and weight remains a challenge. Fortunately, the rugged device market is far more reasonable when it comes to accepting a bit of extra size and weight if it serve a purpose, and Juniper has always made sure their handhelds have properly sized batteries.

As stated above, the Mesa 2 comes standard with a removable, rechargeable 39 watt-hour Lithium-Ion battery the company says is good for 8-10 hours of operation. An optional internal 19 watt-hour battery makes the external battery hot-swappable and makes for a combined 58 watt-hours. That's laptop territory.

Our test unit came with both batteries, so in order to continuously run ten hours on a charge, our Mesa 2 should have a power draw of no more than 5.8 watts. To see if that was doable, we tested the Mesa 2 with PassMark's BatteryMon 2.1 utility.

With the tablet set to the Windows "Balanced" power plan and with the display backlight set to its brightest setting, we saw a power draw of just three watts. With the backlight set to medium, the draw dropped to 2.25 watts, and with the backlight set to its lowest setting, power draw dropped to a stunningly low 1.5 watts.

These figures are amazingly low, but they only represent the power draw with the computer idling along. How does it do with heavy load. To test that we ran full 1080p MP4 high definition video, and cranked up the screen to 100%. The Mesa still only sipped 3.5 watts. That would mean about 16.5 hours of uninterrupted use, surpassing Juniper's spec sheet estimate of 12-15 hours with both batteries. The Mesa 2's (excellent) manual says that "battery life on a full charge can be 20 hours or more" and our power draw testing would support that.

The screen itself measures 7.0 inches diagonally. As already mentioned in the introduction, it has 1280 x 800 pixel resolution which makes it "retina"-sharp. The display's 216 pixels per inch makes it much sharper than the original Mesa's 140 ppi screen, and it's sharper than most of the big 4k desktop monitors. 1280 x 800 pixel makes for a 16:10 aspect ratio, a happy medium between the almost squarish looking iPads and the long and skinny 16:9 tablet displays.

Brightness is important, but it's not everything. A screen backlight can be so bright that it washes out the display (and quickly drain the battery in the process). What matters at least as much as brightness is how well the display outdoors and in sunlight. That requires reducing the reflectivity of the display via polarizers, coatings, and reducing the number of reflective surfaces within the layers of your typical LCD assembly as much as possible. That's done via direct bonding of layers. Juniper lists the display as "outdoor viewable" but doesn't include a nits rating.

All the outdoor pictures in this report are undoctored and that already provides a good idea of how well the Mesa 2 display works. To see how it fares against another excellent display, we did some side-by-sides with a 7000 Series Dell Venue 8 tablet we use around the office. The 8.4-inch Dell consumer tablet has a brilliant OLED display with intense, bright color and deep blacks. The picture below shows the Mesa 2 and the Dell Venue tablet, which we estimate to max out at close to 400 nits. The Mesa 2 is a bit brighter yet. And though both displays are glossy, they control reflections fairly well. There's a distinct difference in hue, and the inherent difference between LCD and OLED technology is likely accountable for that.

When viewed from an angle, the Mesa 2 retained good viewability and did not suffer from contrast or color shifts. We did, however, notice a slight yellow/blue tinge change when viewing the Mesa 2 display from different angles.

This put manufacturers of rugged and industrial handhelds and tablets into a difficult position. On the one hand, inexpensive consumer tech began encroaching into their territory and there was substantial pressure to offer that elegant capacitive multi-touch in rugged devices as well. On the other hand, capacitive touch didn't work with gloves or in the rain, nor did it allow the level of precision necessary to work well with older operating systems that predated capacitive touch.

When we did a detailed review of the original Mesa (which used resistive touch and a passive stylus), we discussed all this with Juniper. The company felt that capacitive touch would continue to improve and that they would experiment with the technology until it became suitable for rugged work environments.

Capacitive touch did improve, and so the Mesa 2 has capacitive multi-touch. And Juniper handled the glove and wetness issues via touchscreen profile settings that configure the Mesa 2 for use with finger and stylus (the default), just finger, just stylus, with gloves on or for use in wet conditions.

It does get a bit confusing here. The Mesa 2 actually comes with two pens. One has a hard, narrow tip that's only about 1/12th of an inch wide and allows fairly precise operations, like selecting the small objects that continue to be part of the desktop/legacy mode of Windows 1. The other is a much wider soft-tipped stylus, the kind that looks like a rounded pencil eraser and is often used to tap on iPads and Android tablets.

Why two different styli? Because the narrow-tipped one doesn't work when wet mode is selected. Here are the Mesa 2's different touchscreen profiles:

• Pen or touch: Finger and both pens are recognized.

• Touch: For use with fingers or to some extent the soft-tipped stylus. This likely works by ignoring anything but the large touch area of a finger or soft stylus with a wide tip.

• Pen only: For use with the narrow tip pen. This mode is good for drawing or writing, or whenever you don't want your fingers to inadvertently trigger an action. Juniper probably work made that work by ignoring touch signals above a certain size. Interestingly, a regular pencil or some narrow-tip metal styli also work, but not a narrow plastic stylus.

• Glove touch: This mode makes the touch display with some (but not all) gloves. Thickness and texture matters. This mode probably increases the sensitivity of the touch controller. It doesn't work with the narrow-tip pen.

• Wet mode: That's the profile to use when it's raining or the tablet is used where it's subjected to water splashing. Technically, this could work by switching from the standard mutual capacitance to self-capacitance. The former measures the capacitance between two or more touch areas, which doesn't work properly when droplets of water fall onto the display. The latter measures the capacitance between one electrode and the ground, making multi-touch impossible.

  We don't know how exactly Juniper implemented the wet mode, but their rain profile works indeed very well. Well enough to make working in the rain possible. For a quick demonstration, see this Juniper YouTube video.

The situation changed drastically with the advent of modern smartphones whose increasingly competent cameras have almost wiped out the traditional point-and-shoots (we shot most of the product photography for this review with an Apple iPhone 7Plus). Cameras built into rugged handhelds and tablets lagged behind in quality compared to those in consumer smartphones, but they are now catching up. To the extent where they are now becoming increasingly usable for documentation work.

What does the Mesa 2 offer in terms of imaging? That would be a 2-megapixel user-facing camera for video calls and such, and a rear-mounted 8-megapixel camera with LED flash for documentation tasks. These resolutions are perfectly adequate for the tasks they are expected to perform. Unfortunately, a cameras are often only as good as their user interface.

Here the Mesa 2 users rely entirely on the Microsoft Windows 10 Camera apps which, by definition, must support every camera users might have or connect to their PC. As a result, Microsoft's own Windows Camera app listing cautions that some features are "available only on select devices." On the Mesa 2 that means that white balance, focus control, ISO, shutter, exposure correction, timer, and flash. Users can also select from photo, panoramic photo and video. The images below show the Windows Camera user interface with its needlessly tiny controls.

We did not find a way to adjust image size other than setting the aspect ratio either to 4:3 or 16:9. The latter in 2,364 x 1,836 pixel images, or 6 megapixel. In video mode, users can select from 1920 x 1080, 1280 x 720 or 960 x 540, all at 30 frames per second. Digital video stabilization is available.

As is, the Mesa 2's cameras are world's ahead of where cameras integrated into handhelds used to be just a few years ago. With a bit of practice they are absolutely good enough for most documentation work on the job. This can eliminate the need to take along a separate camera, and it also means that applications, captured data and supporting imagery will all be in the same device.

That said, we wish the stock, generic Windows Camera app would offer more features and options, so as to take full advantage of the imaging hardware built into the Mesa 2. Fortunately, we're starting to see more 3rd party camera applications in the Windows 10 store. Examples are Camera360 Sight, HDR Photo Camera, B612, and ProShot. We downloaded ProShot onto the Mesa 2, but couldn't get the app to run properly.

Below are some sample pictures we shot with the standard Windows Camera app. Click on the image compilation for a full size version.

Juniper offers the Mesa 2 with a variety of wireless options. Those include long-range (up to 60 feet) Bluetooth Smart Ready v4.0 + EDR, Class 1.5, BLE support, dual-band 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi, as well as 4G LTE (GSM or Verizon) mobile broadband via Sierra Wireless AirPrime EM7355 or EM7305 modules. The WWAN modules also support UMTS/HSPA+, CDMA 1xRTT/EV-DO Rev A and GSM/GPRS/EDGE.

For data acquisition, Juniper also offers the Mesa 2 with an integrated Zebra SE4710 1D/2D imager/PL3307C decoder and the Barcode Connector utility for scanner configuration, settings and testing. The barcode reader has a range from an inch to about two feet, depending on code and conditions.

• For ingress protection, the Mesa rates a superior IP68. The first number stands for protection against solids. 6 is as high as it gets, and it means the unit is totally protected against the finest dust.

  The second number is for the degree of protection from liquids. That scale goes from 0 (no protection) to 8. The MESA 2's "8" liquid protection rating means the device is protected against long periods of immersion. It's up to the manufacturer to report how deep and how long. Juniper tested the Mesa 2 for two hours at 1.4 meters (4.6 feet).

• The Mesa has a wide operating temperature range of -4 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit.

  While not quite as extreme as that of the Archer 2 ultra-rugged handheld (which can go as low as -22 degrees Fahrenheit and as high as 140 degrees), this makes the Mesa 2 suitable for deployment in just about any environmental setting, even freezers.

• As far as the ever-popular drop testing goes, the Mesa 2 survives multiple drops from four feet onto concrete. That's also a bit less than the super-rugged Archer 2, but remarkable considering that the Mesa 2 is a larger, heavier device with a much larger display.

Juniper indicates that additional testing was performed according to MIL-STD-810G procedures: Method 500.5 Low Pressure (Altitude); Method 503.5 Temperature Shock; Method 506.5 Rain; Method 507.5 Humidity; Method 510.5 Sand and Dust; Method 512.5 Immersion; Method 514.6 Vibration.

There are few caveats we have regarding Mesa 2 ruggedness. Whereas with the initial Mesa, we cautioned that its many seals all had to be in perfect condition for optimal protection, the Mesa 2 only has one seal to watch, the main one between the two halves of the device. Between that and the absence of rubber plugs that must be in place, the Mesa 2 seems very well protected indeed. One thing we noted were a couple of small scratches in what we thought was pretty invulnerable Dragontrail glass. We don't know how that happened, but we'd rather not see that.

Juniper offers a special HazLoc version of the Mesa 2 that's certified to be used in certain hazardous areas under certain conditions. Certification includes:

• Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D
• Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G
• Class III
• Temperature Code: T4

In HazLoc speak there are Classes, Divisions and Groups. Class I applies to areas where flammable gasses are present, Class II where flammable dust is present, and Class II where flammable fibers are present. Division 1 means such flammables are always present, Division 2 means they are only there for brief periods of time. Groups describe what kinds of materials may be present.

So that is what the Mesa 2 is for, allowing traditional Windows Mobile customers who need a more modern OS and a bigger screen continue with Microsoft and also with a company they have come to know and trust.

As for the hardware itself, it's Juniper through and through, which means practical, reliable, tough as nails, and designed and built with that common sense that's so often lacking in consumer market products.
