The slim and elegant dark gray body looks less like computer monitors and is well-suited for sophisticated spaces like boutiques and hotel lobbies. Zero-bezel touchmonitors are as practical as they are beautiful. The easy-to-clean screen surface is resistant to water, dust and grease, making it an excellent choice for use by the public.
