Samsung’s rugged technology arm looks set to make waves again, with rumours swirling around two imminent additions to its durability-first lineup: the Galaxy XCover 8 Pro smartphone and the Galaxy Tab Active 6 Pro tablet. These devices promise to reinforce the “tough gear for tough environments” ethos that Strike champions, and we’re already in motion to bring our robust accessories to match.


At Strike, we design and manufacture vehicle cradles, rugged cases, and tempered glass screen protectors that do more than survive in harsh environments. They thrive. Whether you operate on job sites, in transport fleets, or in remote field environments, our accessories safeguard your mobile tech. As Samsung gears up to launch these next-gen rugged devices, we are already engineering Strike versions to ensure full compatibility and day-one durability.

What the rumours are saying

Here is a quick snapshot of what is being reported across the tech blogs.

Upcoming devices at a glance

  • Galaxy XCover 8 Pro: Codenamed model number “SM-G766B” with regional variants.

  • Galaxy Tab Active 6 Pro: The next rugged tablet from Samsung, with rumours pointing to a mid-2025 timeframe.

Durability and performance upgrades

  • XCover 8 Pro performance: Early benchmarks suggest a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 and 6 GB RAM in at least one variant.

  • Battery gains: A larger removable battery is tipped at around 4,350 mAh compared to its predecessor.

  • Tab Active 6 Pro rugged design: Expect IP68-class protection, MIL-STD certifications, potential swappable battery functionality, and S Pen support for field productivity.

Strike Insight

What do these rumoured devices mean for Strike and for you? Here is how this shapes our accessory engineering roadmap.

A slimmer, tougher chassis for the Galaxy XCover 8 Pro

If Samsung pushes a thinner yet tougher chassis for the Galaxy XCover 8 Pro, cradle geometry and locking mechanisms evolve too. Strike is preparing updated clamp designs with high-grip contact surfaces so your device stays secure across corrugations, mine sites, or marine decks.

Tablet and S Pen support for the Galaxy Tab Active 6 Pro

With productivity-first features on the Galaxy Tab Active 6 Pro such as S Pen, swappable batteries, and rugged screens, Strike is prototyping the next generation of rugged tablet cases and locking mounts. Expect injection-moulded corner protection, glove-mode stylus access, and screen protectors that maintain clarity and touch sensitivity in cold, wet, or dusty conditions.

Higher durability standards mean accessory recalibration

As Samsung raises rugged thresholds, Strike matches them. We test materials across thermal extremes, reinforce hinge and port areas, and tune glass hardness and adhesive layers for higher impact absorption. Our goal is simple. Seamless launch-day compatibility with no waiting for the right accessories.

How Strike will support these devices

While we await official announcements, this is what we are preparing in tandem.
