  • The image features a television with a floral design on its screen. The television is described as a 57.4" W SolarCell Remote TM TM2361E model, which comes with a slim fit wall mount, simple stand, and one connect box. The dimensions of the television are 57.4 x 32.8 x 10.3 inches without a stand and 57.4 x 34.2 x 10.3 inches with a stand. The television is made by Samsung and comes with a user manual and an e-manual. The image also includes a remote control, which is a part of the package.
  • Art Mode: Display modern art, classic art or your own personal photos on your QLED 4K TV.
  • The image showcases two different types of televisions, each with a unique display. The first TV is a glare-free model with anti-reflection and matte display, which allows for better visibility and reduced glare in various lighting conditions. The second TV is also a glare-free model, but it features a matte display without anti-reflection. This TV is designed to provide a more immersive viewing experience in both dark and bright scenes.
  • The image features a row of five framed pictures, each with a different colorful bezel. The framed pictures are lined up next to each other, showcasing the variety of bezel options available for customization. The ad emphasizes the ability to match the TV to one's own style with these colorful bezel options.
  • The image features a Samsung slim-fit wall mount that is included with the frame. The frame is designed to hang flush against the wall, giving it a real art piece appearance. However, a small gap may occur between the wall and TV if the wall is not 100% flat or is constructed off angle to the floor. Additionally, if the wall mount is installed incorrectly, it may not provide the desired flush appearance.
  • Pantone Validated: Enjoy color validated by industry experts at Pantone, so that images on the screen look as incredible as they do in real life.
  • The image features a Samsung advertisement with a list of five reasons why their TVs are awesome. The reasons are presented in a visually appealing manner, with each reason displayed in a separate box. The boxes are arranged in a row, and they are labeled with the corresponding reason. The advertisement emphasizes the benefits of Samsung TVs, such as upscaling, endless content, connectivity, 4K, AI, and more. The image effectively showcases the advantages of choosing Samsung TVs and encourages potential customers to consider these features when making a purchase decision.

  • Garbage TV with garbage support

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    So you want a TV that can kind of look like a painting? Well, this is it. You want a TV that handles CEC in a sane fashion? Not it. Want a TV with good picture quality? Not it. Want a TV that randomly shuts itself off and only manages to handshake with your new Sonos Arc about 50% of the time? Well, it does do that. All in all, software/firmware is terrible, and support isn’t very knowledgeable. The redeeming factor is indeed the art mode. To summarize, terrible TV, decent art display.

    Piece of garbage. Have had for 3 months, and completely stopped working. Of all the years I have owned TV’s, I’ve never had to have a TV repair person come out. Been without a TV for a week. Getting in touch with Samsung customer service is a joke. This was the first Samsung, and will be the last I ever own.

    TV is excellent in terms of display quality and the others feature. We are satisfied 100%. However, regarding the frame we ordered and returned, we were very much disappointed not only at your late delivery but the weird system that cancellation is allowed upon delivery though its reason is late delivery.

    Please make sure to open your boxes within two weeks of receiving your item. We opened ours at three weeks(due to renovations in home) and discovered a defect on the tv. Best Buy said it was over two weeks, so we were stuck with the tv. Samsung said it was damaged when we got it, so it isn’t a warranty claim. Long story short, we have to pay for a tech to come fix our new $1300 tv that we cannot use. This will be last order from Best Buy, and Samsung for that matter.

    We have owned 2 of the 2022 model Samsung Frame TVs, which we love. Got this one to add in another room and it is a dud. They might be able to fix the software, but for now nothing works quite right. The video cuts out randomly during a show, audio randomly goes quiet then back to normal, and the smart things automations on it don't work great. Oh and it's got a bug where the "Settings" screen usually doesn't open! Don't buy it at least for a few months, maybe they'll fix it with better firmware.
