Is the SMART Board 6000S Series discontinued?
Yes. SMART Technologies has declared the 6000S Series end of life — it no longer receives feature or software updates and is no longer in production. Its role as the education flagship has been taken over by the SMART Board RX Series, which Kays IT supplies and supports across Oman.
What replaced the SMART Board 6000S Series?
The SMART Board RX Series is the official successor at the top of SMART's education lineup. It carries forward everything schools loved about the 6000S — premium 4K touch, 40-point collaboration, pen-and-touch differentiation — and adds Google EDLA-certified Android 13 with native Google Play, the refreshed iQ 4 experience, and exclusive Tool Explorer technology.
We own SMART Board 6000S displays. Are they still supported in Oman?
Yes. Kays IT continues to provide local technical support, maintenance and training for existing 6000S installations in Oman. We can also plan a phased migration to the RX Series so your classrooms stay on supported, up-to-date hardware.
What were the key features of the SMART Board 6000S Series?
The SMART Board 6000S Series is a premium 4K Ultra HD interactive display engineered for superior educational performance. Its core features include advanced 40-point multi-touch technology, HyPr Touch™ with enhanced infrared detection for lag-free writing, and automatic pen and touch differentiation that seamlessly separates finger touch, pen ink, and palm erasing.
What made the touch and collaboration on the 6000S Series industry-leading?
The display was built with advanced 40-point multi-touch capabilities and HyPr Touch™ technology, delivering unmatched precision. Multiple students could write, draw, erase, and manipulate objects simultaneously without any lag — a benchmark the RX Series now extends with per-user differentiation of touch, pen and erase.
Does the SMART Board 6000S Series support wireless content sharing?
Yes. It features effortless screen sharing capabilities, allowing teachers and students to connect their personal devices wirelessly and stream content, media presentations, and collaborative software directly onto the 4K display from any connected phone, tablet, or laptop.
Should we buy a 6000S now or move to the RX Series?
Because the 6000S is end of life and no longer receives updates, Kays IT recommends the SMART Board RX Series for all new flagship classroom deployments in Oman. The RX offers a newer panel, Google-licensed Android 13, ongoing software updates and the full SMART warranty — at the same position in the range the 6000S used to occupy.
