Samsung Flip WM55FX 55" interactive 4K UHD touch display with IR touch, Tizen 9.0

Samsung WM55FX – the compact interactive 4K touch display for productive collaboration

The Samsung Flip WM55FX brings interactive collaboration to small meeting rooms and huddle rooms: ideas land instantly on the 55" board, laptops share their screens without hunting for cables, and thanks to the pivot function the display can be rotated to portrait for checklists, timelines or document annotation. 20-point multi-touch, the Samsung NoteOn whiteboard app, Microsoft 365 and wireless standards such as AirPlay 2, Miracast and SmartView+ make the WM55FX the central communication platform – without an external PC at the display.

The integrated quad-core processor with 8 GB RAM and 64 GB storage ensures smooth performance in whiteboard sessions and web applications. For video conferencing, a laptop or PC is required as the signal source – via the USB-C port of the Connectivity Tray, a single cable is enough for picture, touch and charging. The advantage: you work with your usual conferencing tools, calendar entries and login details, while the Flip serves as a large touch display with whiteboard function. An external camera and microphone – e.g. the Yealink A40 MeetingBar – complete the room as a fully fledged conferencing solution. Samsung Knox secures the device with encrypted storage, Secure Boot and protection against unauthorised firmware changes – sensitive whiteboard content and login details stay protected.

Touch and interaction

The WM55FX uses infrared touch technology with 20 simultaneous touch points. Touch latency is just 26 ms and the touch overlay responds in 6.7 ms – fast enough for smooth writing and drawing. Up to 4 people can draw on the display at the same time, making the WM55FX ideal for workshops and brainstorming sessions.

Two passive pens with magnetic holders are included. The pens need no battery and attach magnetically to the display frame – always within reach. The integrated Samsung NoteOn whiteboard app enables freehand drawings, text notes and annotations directly on any source – whether HDMI signal, website or presentation.

Collaboration and connectivity

The WM55FX supports three wireless casting standards: Apple AirPlay 2 for iOS and macOS, Miracast for Windows and Android, and Samsung SmartView+. Up to 9 devices can share their screens at the same time – ideal for meetings with mixed devices.

For wired connections, 2x HDMI input, 1x HDMI output and 1x USB-C (3-in-1 for video, audio and touch with 15 W Power Delivery) are available. The USB-C port transmits the video signal and charges the connected notebook at the same time – one cable is all it takes. The HDMI output lets you pass the image on to a second monitor.

Note: On the WM55FX, HDMI In (2nd), USB-C and USB-A expansions are available via the optional Connectivity Tray (CY-TF65BFCXEN). The base unit has 1x HDMI In, 1x HDMI Out, 1x USB-A and 1x Touch Out.

LAN (RJ-45) and Wi-Fi (802.11ac) are available for network connection. Bluetooth 5.0 is available for connecting audio devices such as soundbars or headphones. The RS-232 interface enables integration into professional media control systems.

Display quality

The 55" VA panel with edge LED backlighting delivers 450 cd/m² brightness and a contrast ratio of 4,000:1. With a viewing angle of 178°/178°, the image stays high-contrast and colour-stable even from the side – important for larger meeting groups.

The native 4K UHD resolution (3,840 x 2,160 pixels) renders text, tables and technical drawings razor-sharp. The protective glass with a 2 % haze value reduces reflections while protecting the panel from damage caused by daily touch use. The colour gamut covers 72 % of the NTSC standard – sufficient for presentations, office applications and whiteboard use.

Software and management

The WM55FX runs on Tizen 9.0 with a redesigned home UI in UHD resolution. Five freely assignable soft buttons provide quick access to frequently used functions. The integrated Chromium M120 browser opens websites, cloud applications and intranet portals directly on the display.

Microsoft 365 is available as an online service – Word, Excel and PowerPoint can be opened and edited without an external PC. With the Quick Notes function, you create short notes that are saved locally or in the cloud.

The quad-core processor (CA76, 1.66 GHz) with 8 GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage (approx. 54 GB usable) ensures smooth performance. Samsung Knox protects the device at hardware level and enables central management via Knox Manage. For digital signage scenarios, Samsung VXT provides a cloud-based CMS solution: playlists, schedules and content can be distributed centrally to several displays – ideal if the Flip is also used as an information display in reception or a corridor in addition to the meeting room.

Set-up and mounting

• Dimensions: 1,297 x 768 x 60 mm (W x H x D)
• Weight: 28.6 kg
• VESA: 400 x 400 mm (M8 screws, 30–31 mm screw depth)
