Neat idea, sure, but inevitably, The Frame by Samsung is still just a television wrapped in a fancy sales pitch. Ive spent the past couple of weeks with The Frame in my living room, and Ill admit its a nice TV. Samsung actually calls it The most beautiful TV youve never seen in its marketing materials. The cheeky word play, I think, suggests that you could put this on your living room wall, and nobody would know that its actually a full featured television. The unique art mode allows you to select prints, paintings, or photographs to display on the screen when the TVs power is off. Theres also a motion sensor on the front that can display the art only when someones nearby, so that youre not wasting electricity. Again, cool concept. Im not sure the tech is quite there yet, though.

K TV that looks like a picture frame. Like. Great display, well built TVNo Like. Art Mode sucks, price is way too high. The 5. 5 inch model costs 2,0. I want to make these numbers very clear, because theyre big, and the cost to value ratio played a major role in my opinion of the Frame by Samsung. Put bluntly, these TVs are too expensive. That said, the TV part of the package is actually quite good. The 4. K edge lit LED display is clean, crisp, and luxurious. It features a 1. 20 Hz refresh rate and a 2. Hz motion rate. The refresh rate refers to how many times the image on the screen refreshes, and the motion rate is software that inserts frames between the actual refresh rate to make the picture seem smoother. This often creates something called the soap opera effect. Youve also got HDR Pro, which is a marketing term Samsung and other manufacturers use to imply that the color range of its TVs provide some of the benefits of HDR but dont quite hit the HDR1. The display also lacks local area dimming, the feature that provides multiple zones where the backlight can either highlight bright colors or turn off completely to produce blacker blacks. Nevertheless, the contrast and color quality is still good. The software side of things is also good. The Frame runs Tizen 3. Samsungs proprietary operating system. You can do the things that you do with any smart TV, like install apps and access the internet. Theres also an app to control the TVs Art Mode. The Frame comes with 1. You can also upload your own photos or images to display on the screen when the TV is in Art Mode, again, by using the smartphone app. Thing is, the primary selling point of the Frame isnt just about being a high quality display or a full featured smart TV. Games American Army. Its about the complete package and the aesthetic appeal it offers as a medium for artworks. And since the display itself is roughly equivalent to those in cheaper Samsung TVs, youre definitely paying a big premium for this wannabe haute couture hardware. The Frame is a graceful objectIll give it that. Its essentially an obelisk, around two inches thick and flat on the back so it can sit flush against the wall when you use the no gap mount. Due to a legal agreement with my landlord my lease, I was not able to mount the Frame, but I can appreciate the minimalist appeal of a TV that just looks as clean as a painting in a mid century art studio. Out of the box, the Frame has a thin, black bezel, but you can buy a customizable bezel with a walnut, beige wood, or white finish for an extra 2. TV. The decorative bezel snaps right on to the TV using magnets and takes about 6. But youre also paying hundreds of dollars for pieces of decorative metal. Once its all set up, though, the Frame is a handsome piece of hardware. Even when its not mounted, the TV just floats like a portal into whatever fantasy world your movie of choice wants to take you to. Whats especially impressive is the One Connect cable and box. This system uses a noodle thin cord that connects the port free TV to the separate One Connect Box, where your HDMI, optical audio, USB, and other cords go. In other words, you plug one tiny cord into the TV and that connects to the slim box with all the inputs, a little slab you can hide in a console or anywhere nearby. The only other cable that comes out of the TV is the power cord. So even if youre not mounting the Frame and instead using the sturdy, almost industrial stand that comes with the TV, you can maintain that minimalist appeal. All that said, I cant get past the fact that Samsung is trying to sell you a TV that doubles as a display for art. The Frame just doesnt work for that. The screen itself has that dull glossy sheen that most TVs have, and when the TV is in Art Mode, its dreadfully obvious that its just a digital image on an edge lit display. If you install the Frame anywhere near a window, as I did, youre going to see glare on the screen almost always. So theres no fooling me or my guests that theres now a painting where my TV used to be. It just looks like a really nice TV. For some people, that might be okay. I can see how the Frame might be wonderfully appealing for the lobbies of fancy office buildings or as incognito sports watching installations at nice restaurants. In those instances, the TV as an object is more of a business expense anyways. It almost looks good, too. From a distance, the effect of Art Mode on the Frame was somewhat uncanny, as if you were looking at a weird print in a shiny package. Once you get close up, however, the illusion completely falls apart. In the end, you can buy an equally good TV for much lower priceeven one made by Samsung. As CNET points out, the Frames specifications are roughly equivalent to the Samsung MU8. K TVs. Those TVs are 7. Frame TVs, respectively. Just recently, Samsung also announced a 4. Frame but didnt specify the price. So its not so much that Samsung made a bad TV. Its the fact that the Frames marketing doesnt quite live up to the products promisesor price. Would I recommend the quality of the display in the Frame by SamsungAbsolutely. Would I encourage you to install it in your foyer to impress your friends or please some inner yearning to have a more future focused approach to interior decoration Almost. Would I encourage you to spend an extra thousand bucks to get a TV that promises to be a work of art I would not.
