Choosing between the Yealink MVC S40 and the Yealink MVC S50? Here's how they differ on room size, platforms, camera, audio and price, and which one fits your room.
Short answer: pick the MVC S40 if you want the one that costs $1,184 less and is sized for smaller rooms, so you don't pay for range you won't use. Pick the MVC S50 if you want the one that covers bigger rooms (up to large rooms) and picks up voices farther away (33 ft vs 20 ft).
Both are Teams certified appliance room kits; the difference is audio and price.
