SMART MX275 V5 Specs
The SMART MX 275 interactive display has the following specifications in common with the 65” and 86” versions. The MX255 (55”) has slightly different specifications with less powerful speakers and a lower-spec screen.
- 3840 x 2160 resolution, 4K ultra high definition screen with a large 178° viewing angle.

- 2 x SMART Board MX pens included.
- 64 GB storage and 8 GB memory. This is a significant upgrade from the V4, which has 32 GB of internal storage.
- Connectivity with Bluetooth 5.2 dual-mode, 2 x RJ45 and Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).
- The ability to connect over 40 student devices, including Chromebooks and laptops, with a browser or the integrated SMART collaboration tools.

What Are the Differences Between the V3, V4 and V5 Versions?
The 75″ V4 (SBID-MX275-V4) was released in 2023, with the V3 in 2022. The V5 was introduced in late 2024. Some online resellers are still selling the older V4 models, so please clarify which version you are purchasing.
For older models that have developed a fault, such as lost interactivity, power or USB connectivity, a SMART Board repair from Classroom365 is a cost-effective alternative to a new board.
The V4 75″ SMART Board MX model has the following important improvements over the V3 model:
- 2 x 20W integrated speakers instead of the 2 x 15W speakers with the V3.
- A new central panel with a home button is now conveniently placed centrally.
- An integrated microphone array is now included, not an accessory to purchase separately.
- Upgraded USB ports with an additional rear USB-C port for a teacher’s visualiser or room control system.
- An RFID NFC card reader is now integrated so teachers can sign in with their SMART ID card. The SMART ID card allows users to access their personal settings and OneDrive or Google Drive accounts. The card lets users sync content and lessons if connected to a SMART Learning Suite subscription.
The V5 model has increased internal storage from 32 GB to 64GB, along with some cosmetic improvements.
This SMART Technologies PDF explains the differences between the V3 and V4 in more detail. If you are offered a choice, choose the latest version. There should not be a price difference between versions, but some suppliers may be trying to clear old stock.
Review of the SMART Board MX 75″
The SMART Board MX 275 is the most popular of all the interactive touch screens for education, and for good reason. The built-in software suite is comprehensive and easy to use, and teachers are used to the software from previous interactive whiteboard and projector installations in classrooms.
It isn’t the cheapest option, but the MX 275 remains the market leader for schools with the budget available who want all the features not included with the cheaper SMART Board GX175 price from Classroom365.
The version 5 model, with its upgraded SMART panel and speakers, makes the 75” interactive display the best choice for classrooms from SMART Technologies.
Classroom365 offers schools the best educational pricing for the MX275 and all the MX series. Please get in touch for some impartial advice and a no obligation quote.
