For instance, while it regularly presented a good image for broadcast TV content, it could be too aggressive with motion smoothing for films, and seemingly taking different approaches to individual streaming apps. Once you've mounted your TV with the included mount or set it up on a stand, you'll have to connect a cable to the One Connect Box Mini. Some Frame owners like to weave this cable behind their drywall to truly hide all the cables, but that does mean drilling more holes. One of our contributors took this approach, building out a shelf in the drywall behind her TV to house the box as well as any cables. While this is the most flawless setup of The Frame, if you don't know the first thing about dealing with drywall (I certainly don't), the cable can simply hang down from the TV. Because it's transparent and thin it'll still look great, and you can always hide it behind a plant or decorative vase. Samsung Account required to access our network-based smart services and apps.

Frame TVs seem like an obvious solution to the empty space of an idle television, but to be practical—that is, to authentically render a work of art—requires very high picture quality. With 4K TVs, OLED, and beyond, display tech has finally reached that stage of development. The Samsung The Frame TV displays art so effectively thanks to its anti-reflection technology. The screen has a matte finish so you won't get a pesky glare from lamps or bright sunlight streaming through the window. Samsung improved this technology in its 2022 model, and the matte appearance really makes a difference when you're trying to convince guests that your TV is actually a picture frame. As someone who lives in an extremely bright apartment with 18-foot floor-to-ceiling windows, I can confirm that I've never noticed any light reflections on my screen.

Regardless, it’s a solid set for gamers, with input lag minimal from our testing with an Xbox Series X and Nvidia Shield Android set-top box. Conclusion Also unique is that The Frame requires only one discreet cable, which connects to a box that you’ll hide in the vicinity of the TV. (Say goodbye to the hundreds of clunky cables ruining your room’s vibe.) And to make it even more disguisable as a picture frame featuring a beautiful photograph from your family vacation to Alaska, this TV comes equipped with a matte display so you won’t see any glare. How much does the Samsung The Frame TV cost? I absolutely love Samsung's One Remote, which I not only use with The Frame but also with my Samsung monitor. (That's right, it can turn both on and off.) It's super slim and sleek and just feels great when you use it. "It has an Apple-like feel and is both super responsive and easy to use," Papantoniou says. My favorite feature is probably the dedicated Netflix button, which goes directly to Netflix and eliminates the need to navigate through the interface.

The pros at the Good Housekeeping Institute have been reviewing Samsung's The Frame TV since its first iteration. We've followed the development of each model as it's improved, and this is what stood out in 2022's version. (Changes in 2023 were minimal, limited to a new 32-inch size, new bezel options and The Art Store 2.0, which includes collections from The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Salvador Dali.) Picture quality Samsung TVs really are the leader in this category, which is only just emerging. As far as actual “frame TVs” go, there’s just one. But we widened the options to include a few novelty TVs, as well as some top OLED displays with frames so thin they can stand in for picture frames. We also think, even though it’s available in large sizes of a similar caliber, The Frame TV is the perfect second-room TV thanks to its combination of great picture quality and ability to blend in with its surroundings where a large TV screen might otherwise be unsightly.Currently, this feature only fits with any size Samsung television, from older models to newer models.
