While the 2018 The Frame model only featured three sizes – 43-inch, 55-inch, and 65-inch– that has since expanded with a 49-inch size, as well as the massive 75-inch and miniscule 32-inch sizes for 2020. The 2021 iteration keeps all but the 32-inch sizes, though we could see a smaller version release later in the year. We tested the 55" (QN55LS03TA) variant of The Frame 2020, and for the most part, we expect our review to be valid for the43"(QN43LS03TA), the 50" variant (QN50LS03TA), the 65" variant (QN65LS03TA), and the 75" variant (QN75LS03TA). The 32" model has a 1080p resolution and we haven't tested it, so our review is less applicable. New for 2021 is a tripod TV stand for those not wanting to wall-mount the set – something matched by the Gallery Stand of the LG G1 OLED. Frame your most treasured memories in a way that best complements your home. It's easy to upload and exhibit your own photography or a new family portrait on your TV – simply send your photos to The Frame TV via your smartphone* or a USB flash drive. Better still, you can elevate your photos to new artistic heights by choosing from six pre-loaded aesthetic filters. The 4K flagship Samsung QN95B and Samsung QN90B Neo QLED TVs are even brighter than The Frame and go up to a 144Hz refresh rate that rivals gaming monitors. Neither of those skills are in The Frames’ wheelhouse, which means there’s a clear reason to go for one of Samsung’s highest-end models if you want the absolute best performance.If someone comes across a different type of panel or if their Samsung Frame 2020 doesn't correspond to our review, let us know and we will update the review. Note that some tests such as the gray uniformity may vary between individual units. Size 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. Wandering too far from the center of the screen will apply that look to any content; the poor viewing angles of the The Frame ensure that even before you hit the corners of the set, the picture will look grey and blighted, with distorted colors. (A full-purple test screen looked practically rose from the extreme edges.) The set does upscale well, though, with Mission: Impossible—Fallout losing only a trace of its razor-sharp detail between the 1080p and native 4K versions we watched. Samsung The Frame QLED 4K Smart TV (2022) review: Art functionality We've retested the TV and concluded that it doesn't have any sub-pixel dimming, dithering, or crosshatching. The score has been adjusted.
Internet connection, compatible Android or iOS device and SmartThings app required. Photos will be displayed at the original resolution.
Tired of seeing distracting glare on your TV screen? The Frame's ground-breaking Matte Display overcomes this problem as it absorbs reflections - so even in bright light you'll have the best possible viewing experience, without any distractions. It also helps your TV look just like a picture frame, so you can enjoy beautiful artwork and photography on a glare-free canvas*. The sound quality from The Frame’s 40-watt, 2.0-channel built-in audio system was passably good, though I didn’t stress it much during use. While dialogue was clear, connecting to an external soundbar would have undoubtedly enhanced performance. (The Frame TVs come with Samsung’s Q-Symphony feature, which allows for one of the company’s soundbars and the set’s speakers to play in unison.) A Bluetooth wireless output provides another TV audio support option. Early verdict When viewing a full-screen 100% white test pattern on The Frame, it showed no sign of color tinting or brightness drops from the center to the edges of the screen, but rather a brilliant and fully uniform white. This bodes well for displaying artwork and photos, which, of course, will also benefit greatly from the matte finish screen coating when viewing with overhead room lights on and window blinds opened. While images looked stunning when viewed straight on, we also noted that brightness uniformity was notably lessened when viewing anywhere beyond +/- 15 degrees off from center – a traditional weakness of LCD display tech.
