Samsung Updates The Frame for 2018

Samsung Electronics America Inc. has updated its “The Frame” TV for 2018 which has enhanced features, new customisation options and more than 800 available works of art.

Owners of The Frame now have more ways than ever to customize the look and feel of their room. The Samsung Art Store, claimed to be the world’s largest art platform for TV, houses an ever-growing and diverse library of artwork from some of the most prominent museums, galleries and artists around the world – including the recent addition of more than 30 iconic pieces of photography from The New York Times. The cost is $4.99 per month after the first free month.

New features include HDR10+ support and has the same Smart features as the QLED range – for example, users of a smartphone can send account details to the TV to avoid the need for TV log-ins, using Bluetooth. It has has Bixby to act as a controller to the SmartThings IoT dashboard.

When mounted, it hangs flush to the wall thanks to Samsung’s proprietary No Gap Wall Mount. The Frame offers four customizable magnetic bezel options3 – black, white, walnut and beige wood – so that users can easily swap colors to complement the color of the room. And the One Invisible Connection, a single slim and translucent cable that transmits both power and AV data to the TV, eliminates the clutter of cords beneath the TV and the need to place the TV near data or power outlets.

The Frame 2018 is available immediately on Samsung.com and will be available at retailers this month in 55” ($1,999) and 65” ($2,799) sizes.
