Yes, this is a TV! Samsung's Frame TV looks like an actual work of art. (Photo: Samsung)
While a big TV in the living room is great during the big game or movie night, you might not love the way a giant black rectangle dominates the decor once your set's been powered down. This issue inspired Samsung to create its Frame TV, which looks like a beautiful work of art on your wall, whether it's turned on or off. If you’ve been eyeing this Samsung for a while, we have good news: Several Frame TV sizes are currently on sale at Amazon for Black Friday, and the savings are the biggest to date. The 32-inch is down to $548 (from $598), the 43-inch is $778 (from $948), the 50-inch is $888 (from $1,198), the 65-inch is now $1,499 (from $1,798) and the 85-inch is on sale for $3,168 (from $4,298). Phew! Now's the time to get one, it seems — and you'll be ready for hosting for the holidays when it comes to both sleek decor and quality entertainment!
The Frame TV’s Art Mode is genius — it turns a black box into a masterpiece. You can buy individual selections from a Samsung art store or subscribe to a library with more than 1,400 pieces from established and upcoming artists.
Shoppers say the Frame TV is also just a gorgeous television overall, with, literally, a billion “stay-true” shades of color that breathe life into all your favorite TV shows and movies.
“This TV looks awesome and stands out above the fireplace perfectly," said one happy customer. "...it truly does look like a piece of art. This model is thinner than typical TVs and mounts closer to the wall.....”
The Frame is, of course, 4K HD, so it delivers ultra-crisp images. Amazon’s Alexa assistant is built-in as well, so you can use your voice to turn on the TV, change channels, search for movies and shows, play music and more.
Another reviewer attested to the good looks of the Frame TV and gushed over the digital art gallery: “I paid for the year of art, which is fun for my family and amounts to an...art education....”
This art lover is enamored with the Frame TV: “Samsung Frame does exactly as it’s intended!” said the shopper. “I have been busy finding high-res art from the Met Museum. Google Arts and Culture, etc., for free!” Just set the artwork to shuffle and it'll rotate every few minutes.
“I love how it fools our visitors into thinking it’s a picture frame and not a TV,” said another fan. And this five-star reviewer summed it up nicely: "The TV has a beautiful picture, there is no denying that. And when you turn it off, it becomes your favorite work of art."
