Zoom Just Launched a New Device for Your WFH Battle Station
Zoom’s DTEN ME is a $600 tablet designed specifically for video conferencing
As Covid-19 continues to keep offices shuttered around the world, businesses are scrambling to adjust to the “new normal,” with many employees stuck working from home. Now, tech companies are jumping at the opportunity to sell gadgets that facilitate an extended work-from-home reality.
Last week, Zoom debuted a new category of dedicated video calling devices under Zoom for Home branding. The first home device, the DTEN ME, costs $599, and is an oversized 27-inch tablet with three video cameras, eight high-definition microphones, and easy access to Zoom calls when they’re scheduled.
Unlike traditional meeting-room hardware, like Google’s Meet devices, which are designed for use with a large TV and microphones dotted across a meeting-room table, Zoom’s device is designed to live on a desk alongside a computer and be used by one person at a time.
