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.
Why Samsung Took a Different Approach to the Interactive Whiteboard Market
The Samsung Flip is built around a open canvas framework 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.
The Differences Between Samsung Flip Models That Actually Matter
The Samsung Flip Pro is the top-tier model in the range. It runs on a more powerful processor than the WM-FX series, supports a wider range of third-party application installation, and includes enhanced video conferencing capability with native support for Teams and Zoom at a level that the base models do not provide. The Flip Pro is the model that makes most sense for corporate environments where the board will be used for both collaboration sessions and video conferencing, and where software flexibility beyond the default Flip canvas environment is a requirement.
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.

Samsung Flip and Video Conferencing Platforms: What Works and What Does Not
Teams and Zoom compatibility on the Samsung Flip depends on which model is being evaluated. The Samsung Flip Pro supports Teams and Zoom at a level that makes it functional for standard video conferencing use in a meeting room - the camera and microphone connections work, the interface is usable, and calls can be initiated and managed from the display. What the Flip Pro does not provide is native Teams Rooms certification, which means it does not function as a managed Teams Rooms device within a centralised Teams administration environment. For organisations that require certified Teams Rooms hardware for compliance or management reasons, the Flip Pro does not meet that standard.
Google Workspace integration on the Samsung Flip is available through the Android application environment. Google Meet, Google Docs, Slides and Drive are all accessible. The depth of that integration is adequate for education environments using Google Classroom that want to use the Flip as a collaborative display for student sharing and annotation alongside their Workspace workflow. It is not a native Workspace integration at the level that Promethean provides for Google Classroom - it is standard Android application access to Google services.
Frequently Asked Questions on the Samsung Flip Interactive Whiteboard
Samsung Flip Pro vs WM-FX - what do you actually get for the extra cost?
The Flip Pro adds three meaningful capabilities over the WM-FX: a more powerful processor that handles third-party application installation more smoothly, native video conferencing support at a level that makes it functional for meeting room use with Teams and Zoom, and enhanced wireless connectivity with improved multi-device performance under load. For buyers whose use case includes regular video conferencing from the display, the Flip Pro is the right choice. For buyers whose use case centres on annotation and wireless content sharing - the core Samsung Flip workflow - the WM-FX delivers that experience at a lower cost with no material difference in the quality of the annotation or canvas functions that define the product.
Samsung Flip for school use - is it the right choice?
Australian schools considering the Samsung Flip should assess their teaching workflow honestly before selecting it. If the primary use is annotation, sharing and collaborative visual work, the Flip is a strong choice. If the primary use is delivering structured lesson content from a curriculum-aligned software platform, Promethean is the more purpose-built option for that use case.
How do I buy a Samsung Flip in Australia?
In South Australia, Samsung Flip models are available through specialist commercial AV and display resellers serving Adelaide and regional South Australia. The advantage of sourcing through a local reseller for South Australian buyers is access to local installation support, on-site warranty service and the ability to evaluate the hardware in person before committing to a purchase. The Samsung Flip is a product that benefits significantly from hands-on evaluation before purchase - the pen quality and canvas experience that differentiates it from competing products are not well-represented by specification sheets alone.
