Art and Entertainment Pictured Perfectly in Samsung The Frame


Elegance and magnificence merged into one, Samsung The Frame is this year’s most beautiful TV, and here’s why.

Is it a TV? Or is it art? Samsung The Frame is both, and this is precisely what makes it a truly unique and magnificent product. This TV is, by far, this year’s talk of the town, and it makes perfect sense why. Samsung The Frame is the TV that can transform any living space into a beautiful space, instantly. We got to experience how it is to have a 55-inch Samsung The Frame, and here’s our personal take on it:

Let’s start with the look.

The Most Stylish TV

This TV is named as such for the very reason that Samsung designed it to appear like a normal art piece. What’s amazing about The Frame-look is that you can easily customize its bezels depending on your preference. With its customizable bezels, the TV can blend in and adapt to any home interior design theme. The bezels come in four different colors: black, brown, beige, and white. We went for beige bezels for a more natural wood look. You can opt for one bezel color, or more if you want to change your style every now and then. It’s very easy to change the bezels since they are magnetically-attached.

Hanging The Frame on the wall, just like any other frame, is as easy as it gets, because of the no gap wall-mount feature. It’s also interesting to note that Samsung made sure that it will be easy for anyone to make the TV look like any other painting on the wall through the One Connect Box where all the messy wires and cables can be connected, well-kept, making it unseen.

Framing World-class Art -- and more

The Art Mode is what sets Samsung’s The Frame in a league of its own. This TV lets you display paintings from galleries across the globe through the Art Store. The Art Store also gives you the chance to create your very own art collection of masterpieces from your favorite artists since it gives you unlimited access to 1,200 artworks, and that ranges from classic masterpieces all the way to contemporary -- especially, if you’re a full member. Just imagine how great it would be to display a Van Gogh in your home, made possible only by The Frame. 

The Art Mode of Samsung The Frame also lets you display your favorite photographed moments by simply using your phone or by plugging in a flash drive. What’s more, the TV also offers six filters specially designed for photos. Just upload the images to My Collection and choose the filter that suits your personality.

Two remarkable notes for Samsung The Frame’s Art Mode: it comes with a brightness sensor, so the TV automatically adjusts both the brightness and the color tone to suit the ambient light and ensure that the art displayed appears natural on the screen. The TV also has a motion sensor so the Art Mode is turned off the minute a person leaves the room, letting you cut back on your electricity bill.

By the way, the Art Mode is different from the Ambient Mode, which is a common yet still really nice feature of Samsung TVs. The Art Mode lets you access and display art while the Ambient Mode enables the TV to blend in with its background.

A Beautiful and an Even Smarter TV

What makes this TV worth the price, which is PHP 79,999 for the 55-inch, is that you get to enjoy QLED 4K technology that only Samsung can deliver. Watch your favorite movies on streaming apps and see how this TV brings them to life. The Frame definitely does not fall short in terms of picture quality, with its adaptive picture. This TV can read the room and automatically adjust the lighting and contrast to give the best image quality possible.

Personally, our favorite features of Samsung’s The Frame are these two: Multi-View and the Tap View. The multi-view lets you stream two things at once, a perfect feature for the multi-tasker. The tap view feature, on the other hand, is a no-brainer, with its latest jaw-dropping update. By simply tapping your smartphone on The Frame, your photos, videos, and music can instantly be mirrored on the TV. This is made possible by the SmartThings app, which can be installed even in iPhones, with the AirPlay 2 built-in.

The Verdict

Samsung The Frame is mind-blowing. The TV is perfect for anyone who wants a better Smart TV and wants to level up their home decor. Is it worth the hype? Yes. Is it worth the price? Yes. Whatever your lifestyle is, be it modern or boho chic, this TV will be a perfect fit. If you want to know more about The Frame and its features before adding it to the cart, go to www.samsung.com/ph.
