The Samsung Flip range in 2026 consists of three distinct models: the Samsung Flip Pro, the WM-FX series and the WA-FX-P series. They share a design language and a core annotation workflow but differ meaningfully in processing power, software capability, platform integration and price. Understanding those differences is the practical purpose of this review.
The Samsung Flip Design Philosophy: What It Means in Practice
The Samsung Flip is built around a canvas model rather than a presentation model. The default state of the display is an open digital canvas that accepts pen input, touch input and content from connected devices simultaneously. There is no software layer managing lesson sequences or meeting agendas. The display is a shared surface. What goes on it is determined by the people using it rather than by a software environment that structures their interaction with it.
Connectivity on the Samsung Flip centres on the Flip Share wireless connection protocol, which allows up to four devices to connect simultaneously and display their screens in split-panel or individual configurations on the display surface. Participants can annotate directly on shared content from any connected device. That multi-device simultaneous connection capability is what makes the Samsung Flip distinctive in a collaborative session rather than a presentation setting.
Samsung Flip Pro, WM-FX and WA-FX-P: What Each Model Actually Offers
The WA-FX-P is the portrait-primary model in the Samsung Flip range. Where the WM-FX and Flip Pro rotate between landscape and portrait, the WA-FX-P is designed for use in portrait orientation as a primary position, with landscape as a secondary option. Its intended use cases are digital signage applications, reception displays and environments where a standing portrait display is the primary format. It is a narrower-use-case product than the other two models and should only be specified where portrait-primary use is genuinely the intent.
Australian buyers considering the Samsung Flip range will find that the model selection question typically comes down to two decisions: whether the video conferencing and third-party application capability of the Flip Pro justifies its premium over the WM-FX, and whether portrait-primary use warrants the WA-FX-P rather than the standard WM-FX with rotation capability. For most corporate and education buyers, the WM-FX delivers the core Samsung Flip experience. The Flip Pro becomes the right choice when video call capability and application flexibility are primary requirements rather than secondary ones.

How Samsung Flip Handles Microsoft Teams and Zoom in 2026
The practical guidance for buyers evaluating Samsung Flip for meeting room use is straightforward. If video conferencing is the primary function the display will serve, a purpose-built Teams Rooms device or SMART Board is the more appropriate tool. If collaboration and annotation are the primary functions, with video conferencing as an occasional secondary use, the Flip Pro handles that adequately. Buying a Samsung Flip primarily for video conferencing and treating the collaboration capability as secondary is inverting the product design intent.
Microsoft 365 integration follows the same pattern - standard Android application access to Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneDrive. Adequate for general business use. Not at the level of native Microsoft ecosystem integration that the SMART Board range provides for enterprise Teams environments. The Samsung Flip is strongest when the software workflow on the display centres on the native Flip canvas environment, with platform applications used as content sources for that canvas rather than as the primary operating environment.
Common Samsung Flip Questions from Australian Businesses and Schools
Is the Samsung Flip Pro worth the upgrade from the WM-FX?
The practical test is whether video conferencing is a primary or secondary function. Primary video conferencing function - choose the Flip Pro. Secondary or occasional function - the WM-FX is adequate and the price difference is better allocated elsewhere. The annotation quality, pen performance, rotation capability and multi-device wireless connection are identical between the two models. The differences are in processing power, application flexibility and video conferencing integration depth.
Can the Samsung Flip be used in a primary or secondary school classroom?
Where the Samsung Flip is less well-matched to education is in primary school environments where the teacher relies on a structured lesson management platform - pre-built lesson content, interactive activities, curriculum-aligned resources - that requires a dedicated education operating environment. Promethean provides that environment natively. The Samsung Flip does not, and attempting to replicate it through third-party applications on the Android environment produces a more complex and less stable classroom experience.
Where can Australian businesses buy Samsung Flip interactive whiteboards?
Samsung Flip interactive whiteboards are available through Samsung Australia directly and through authorised commercial AV resellers across Australia. Purchasing through a commercial AV reseller rather than direct or through a consumer electronics channel typically provides access to pre-sales configuration advice, professional installation services, warranty management support and ongoing technical assistance that the direct purchase channel does not include as standard. For business and education buyers who want to ensure the hardware is correctly specified, installed and supported, the reseller channel is the recommended approach.
