Replace Projectors with Flat Panels

[petben]

Hello, can anyone recommend a make model of a non-interactive panel to replace classroom projectors and speakers. I am really looking at no smaller than 75". Smart non interactive panels are £2000+, Curry's TV's maybe £600, but how long would they last? Has anyone get anything else suitable for a bit of school life?

Thanks

Something like the SAMSUNG 75" QB75N? They're around £1500 a piece IIRC.

[petben]

will they have some kind of toughened screen? do you think they would be under any kind of warranty being used commercially in a school..

 

Thanks

I'd maybe have a look at interactive displays, even if you don't use the feature. I think at that size nowadays the cost is around the same, or rumoured that interactives may even be cheaper due to demand....

If you're wanting something toughened, you're best looking at interactive displays - they're lower cost simply due to bulk being bought.

As both @SamDavis and @localzuk have mentioned, although you may not want / need interactivity, they may well still be cheaper than non-interactive / commercial displays! Even just for the toughened screen / robustness alone (and usual 5-year warranty).

 

Alternative would be commercial grade TV / Display Screens, and even then they are about £1,599 upwards (for TV). For Example, https://rocheav.co.uk/75hfl2899s

We had a 30+ of these ViewSonic screens (combination of 65" IFP6550 & 75" IFP7550) installed a few months ago. There were on promotion at the time, whereby we got 6 free (i think a similar offer may still be available?) as well as bulk discount.

 

I know that the IFP6560 / IFP7560 range is now available, whereby the 'touch' is within the glass - but currently a lot more expensive.

We use 65 inch normal TV's, normally around the 500-600 mark thesedays, we've been absolutely fine with all of them bar the one which had a cup of tea thrown over it, they've been no better/worse than the commerical panels at another site
