The BenQ Board Pro RP8604 86″ is a heavyweight in the interactive display market, and for good reason. KPMS’s product page highlights its 4K UHD resolution, 86-inch screen, ultrawide viewing angles, and strong build quality.
Pros:
-
Size & Clarity: The 86-inch screen with 4K UHD (3840×2160) provides impressive visual clarity. Zoomed-in content still remains sharp.
-
Touch and Writing Experience: The ultra-precision IR touch allows up to 50 touch points; it’s responsive, accurate, and works well with stylus / pen tray and magnetic eraser. Good for multiple users making annotations.
-
Durability & Clean Use: The tempered glass (3.2 mm) with AG coating, and germ-resistant screen, pen, remote help this display in environments where hygiene is important.
-
Extras: Built-in microphones and a strong sound system (20W ×2 with subwoofer) add real value – suitable not just for display but for presentation/meeting use without needing external audio setup.
Cons / What to Consider:
-
Size & Cost: Whilst the size is a selling point, it also means more expensive installation, wall mounting, and space considerations.
-
Power & Running Costs: Max power consumption is high; typical usage is lower but still, energy usage is something you won’t ignore in 18/7 usage.
-
Complexity: With many features (NFC login, sensors, etc.) there’s more that could go wrong; ensures you have technical support in place.
Verdict:
If you have the budget and space, the BenQ Board Pro RP8604 is tough to beat. For large classrooms, lecture theatres, senior meeting rooms or collaborative workspaces where multiple people need to interact simultaneously, it’s a strong investment. If your space is smaller or budget tighter, some slightly smaller displays might hit a better sweet-spot.
