Know before you buy
The Mimo UM-740R is compatible with Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. Notably, it does not require extra drivers for Mac, making setup straightforward across different operating systems.
The monitor utilizes DisplayLink technology, which allows a single USB 2.0 cable to handle power, video, and touch data simultaneously. This eliminates the need for a separate power brick and keeps your workspace clutter-free.
Yes, it supports finger input, but the resistive technology is specifically designed for high-precision tasks. It also includes an integrated stylus, which is often the preferred method for interacting with this type of screen to ensure accuracy.
Yes, the screen is detachable from its stand. This design allows you to use it as a standalone, tablet-like device, which is particularly useful for point-of-sale systems or handheld interactive applications.
Absolutely. The monitor features a flexible design that allows you to easily rotate the screen between portrait and landscape orientations to suit your specific workflow or application needs.
The native resolution is 800x480. While it can support up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) through scaling, it is best optimized for its native resolution for the clearest text and interface elements.
