Given the choice between a whiteboard and a large wall-mounted all-in-one computer, most people we know will still opt for the traditional boardroom panel, especially with modern tools like the Rocketboard making it easy to digitize them with the help of a smartphone. Still, adding a large touchscreen display to the boardroom can help with a whole lot of other things, from showing graphical models and detailed charts to real-time collaborations and video chats with colleagues out of the office. The Dell 75 4K Interactive Touch Monitor is designed for those applications.

That’s right, it’s a 75-inch touchscreen monitor designed for the boardroom, so you can take advantage of modern technologies during meetings at the office. No need to turn out the lights and bring out the projector – just roll it into the room and use it to augment your discussions in any way it can help.

Unlike most large-display office solutions, the Dell 75 4K Interactive Touch Monitor isn’t an all-in-one computer. Instead, it’s just a monitor, so you’ll have to hook it up to a nearby PC to actually do anything with it. Dell is actually offering an option to pair with one of their Optiplex Micro Desktops, which can be integrated into a compartment on the monitor to give it a seamless appearance. We’re not actually sure where that section is, but we imagine it’s somewhere in the back to keep the whole thing looking streamlined.

It has a 20-point touchscreen that allows multiple people to use it at the same time, making it easy for people in the room to collaborate on a single canvas, all while responding to fingers, palms, and stylus pens alike, so you can use whatever tool you find most comfortable. According to Dell, you can even erase what you’ve written onscreen using your palm (it has anti-smudge coating), essentially turning your hand into a whiteboard eraser. It ships with Flat Frog Whiteboard, which turns the monitor into a functional digital whiteboard, in case you’ve decided to use it as a permanent replacement for the traditional board room staple.

According to the outfit, the Dell 75 4K Interactive Touch Monitor can display fonts sharply anywhere in the room, allowing everyone to read what’s written onscreen at any time, while anti-glare coating ensures the screen can viewed clearly, whether the room is illuminated by fluorescent lighting or sunlight out of a nearby window. It’s an IPS panel, too, so this should have a wide viewing angle, so you can see whatever’s onscreen, regardless of where you’re sitting in the room.

It comes with two custom mounting options: either on the wall or on a stand. Both are equipped with a feature Dell is calling Screen Drop technology that raises or lowers the monitor by pressing buttons on the side of the display, making it easily usable, regardless of the user’s height. Company personnel can manage the display remotely via the built-in RS232, RJ45, and HDMI CEC connectivity.

The Dell 75 4K Interactive Touch Monitor will be available in April, priced at $5,999.99.

  1. Dell has truly been bringing some innovative products to the market. The 75-inch touchscreen monitor will come in real handy for a lot of businesses. Too bad the screen size isn’t larger so it can help replace some of the traditional whiteboards in classrooms. It would be expensive for schools, but it would be so handy for the classroom whiteboard to be a touchscreen monitor. In order for this to ever happen a much larger touchscreen monitor to replace a whiteboard will have to not only be made and sold but sold at a much lower price. This 75-inch touchscreen monitor costs $6,000, so I doubt we will see a classroom-sized monitor at an affordable price. I like Dell, but the price seems too steep to me.

    1. Dell has not been innovating as much as just cranking out a lot of products. The quality control of many of their products is sub-par. Dell just recalled over 9,000 of their hybrid power adapters because they are a shock hazard. This could have been easily found before they were sent to consumers, but lax oversight of Dell at the factories overseas where these products are made directly led to this recall. The high-end Dell computers are pretty good quality wise, but their entry-level and mid-range computers all have noticeable cheapness. The accessories branded by Dell are generally overpriced and you are better off going with a reputable 3rd party for computer accessories.

  2. Why wouldn’t companies just use a projector instead? A quality projector costs much less than this monitor.

    1. With a projector, you won’t get a touchscreen, but yeah, I agree with you. A projector is a much better value. I cannot think of many small businesses that would benefit from the Dell 75 4K Interactive Touch Monitor. Well, they could benefit from it, but Dell has priced most small business out of it with the extreme price tag. I guess rich Wall Street investment firms and startups with a fresh round of seeding money could drop the dough needed for it.

  3. Smartboards are the future for classrooms, but for now, a good smart board like the Dell 75 4K Interactive Touch Monitor are too costly for the classroom.

    1. With teachers striking because of underfunded schools, it will be a few more years until whiteboard sized smart boards are common in all classrooms across America. For some reason, our Country places more money in things they shouldn’t while continually cutting the budget for schools. We need to have better-funded schools. A child with an education will help keep the prisons empty.

  4. This monitor is NOT designed to replace the traditional whiteboard, it is just a supplemental feature that some schools are testing out. I would love to see smart boards in all classrooms, but it is just no feasible right now. The pricing would make it impossible to get these in all the schools that could use them. A rich philanthropist such as Bill Gates could implement these or a similar design into a lot of schools, but I am sure he too is waiting until the price can come down more.

    For a business, this is ideal, except for the pricing. Maybe with all the tax cuts businesses got from President Trump they could afford to splurge on something like this. I just don’t see many businesses buying this as you really do not get much for the price they are asking. It is $6,000 and will be outdated next year.

  5. Yeah, it is definitely expensive, but will work well for the right businesses. Instead of being crowded around a tablet or computer or fighting with a low-resolution projector, the Dell 75 4K monitor would be a better choice. Expensive, but if it increases productivity at meetings it will save the company money.
