BenQ has introduced the InstaShow VS25, a cutting-edge wireless conferencing system that enhances its InstaShow lineup with native 4K UHD output. The system maintains BenQ’s hallmark one-tap, driver-free screen-sharing approach, making it an attractive solution for hybrid workplaces. The VS25 is designed to cater to environments where employee-owned devices are integrated with shared meeting-room equipment, targeting BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and BYOM (Bring Your Own Meeting) setups.
The new model supports up to 64 hardware “buttons” across a deployment, allowing four presenters to share their screens simultaneously. This feature positions the VS25 as an ideal choice for larger organizations aiming for a consistent presentation workflow across multiple meeting rooms, while still enabling several attendees to share content in a single session.
Advanced Video and Interaction Capabilities
The headline feature of the VS25 is its 4K output at 60Hz, designed to enhance clarity and smoothness for detailed documents, dashboards, and video content during meetings. This is complemented by touchback control, which lets presenters control their source devices from a touch-enabled display in the room. With an interactive panel, on-screen navigation and annotation can be performed directly from the display, eliminating the need for a keyboard or trackpad.
Compatible with major video conferencing platforms such as Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet, the VS25 is well-suited for hybrid meetings, where in-room presenters share content with remote participants.
“Many enterprises lose valuable time due to technical difficulties during meetings,” said Aleem Khan, Product Manager at BenQ Australia. “The InstaShow VS25 eliminates these friction points entirely, particularly addressing the hybrid meeting challenge by allowing in-room participants to share content wirelessly while maintaining seamless integration with remote attendees through any video conferencing platform.”
Enhanced Wireless and Range Capabilities
The VS25 employs Wi-Fi 6 technology, which is beneficial in environments with a high density of connected devices, such as corporate offices and shared meeting spaces. Wi-Fi 6 can significantly improve network efficiency. BenQ specifies a stable transmission range of up to 40 meters, which should cover typical meeting rooms and adjacent spaces without requiring additional infrastructure.
Security Features and Market Context
Security remains a top concern for organizations allowing guest devices into meeting rooms. The VS25 incorporates AES 128-bit encryption, supports WPA3, and is CVSS 4.0 certified, addressing the security needs of modern enterprises. Meeting-room technology often becomes a point of contention between collaboration teams and IT operations, as products in this category must balance user-friendliness with robust security controls.
The introduction of the VS25 comes at a time when hybrid work models are reshaping investments in meeting-room equipment. Companies are prioritizing quick start-up, consistent user experiences across rooms, and compatibility with multiple operating systems. BenQ positions the VS25 as part of this shift, emphasizing device-agnostic sharing and ease of use.
Support for multiple operating systems, casting options, and dedicated buttons reflects a broader market push for flexibility. Organizations in Australia have been updating meeting rooms as part of wider refresh cycles tied to video conferencing adoption and office redesigns.
Pricing and Distribution
BenQ has priced the InstaShow VS25 at AUD 3,199, distributing the device through channels across Australia. The VS25 expands BenQ’s existing portfolio, which includes projectors, monitors, and interactive displays. The company is targeting the sustained demand for meeting-room tools that bridge the gap between user devices and in-room screens, particularly for organizations seeking to avoid software installations and minimize dependence on corporate networks.
As hybrid work continues to evolve, BenQ’s latest offering may well become a staple in modern meeting rooms, providing a seamless, secure, and versatile solution for today’s dynamic work environments.
