Can the screen on M6 be rotated?

Is the LED screen on the M6 rotatable?

The reason I'm asking is that I saw there is an Ethernet port at the bottom of M6. I plan to plug my laptop via the cable. If I want to put this device vertically, the Touchscreen would be upside down.

I prefer to plug the cable from the top:-D.  Heard somewhere that the vertical position is good for heat dissipation.

    There isn't. But you can always manage it through the app and leave the screen off

    Hello!

    The M6’s LED screen isn’t rotatable by default, so placing the device vertically with the Ethernet port at the top may leave the touchscreen upside down. While vertical positioning can help with heat dissipation, you might need to check system settings for rotation options or use angled adapters to keep the default orientation with better cable access.
