Samsung - 32" Class The Frame Series Full HD Smart Tizen TV

Obviously the picture is perfect - it's Samsung. Which means the physical design is sleek and simple, and the materials are sturdy and inspire confidence. The white remote had me do a double take, as I'm used to black or metal, but it is solid and intuitive, and is easy to spot in a cluttered environment. Setup was so simple I almost missed it. The longest part of the process was keying in my wifi network password. Built-in apps cover all the bases. I was able to download the couple that I usually use that weren't there, so I could say goodbye to a certain USB dongle device. I'd like to strip a couple of the built-ins from my home screen, but you can rearrange them so it's not a big deal once you use the device. Sound is amazing, considering I have no idea where it's coming from. No visible speakers or soundbar, but it has excellent audio volume and clarity. The Frame hangs flush to the wall, and looks like a movie poster. A single wire connects it to the base device, and I'll probably slip that through the wall to complete the look. I prefer the art to be set about as dark as it can get, which matches the brightness of the wall and looks like a poster. When it's brighter it looks like a high-quality backlit movie poster at the theater. There are art options available via subscription, but I've found the free selections work like a charm in my room. I'm not used to switching out paintings on a regular basis, so that habit is one I'll have to get into. As it is, I've left it on a gorgeous landscape by Edvard Munch, which compliments the decor perfectly. The art is accessible with the tap of a button on the remote, and is instant. It turns itself off after 2, 3, or 4 hours of idle time, or when there is no light detected in the room - both of those are energy saving settings that make the Frame blend in to its environment and save energy in the process. The only tricky part of the entire installation process was mounting the drywall anchors. The screws for the included flushmount (and it really is flush) have very flat pan heads, so you really need to use them instead of subbing out other screws, and they're really long, so you need to use the anchors provided, which are substantial and high-quality. Just don't let them spin in the wall before they start to open. There's a trick to it that eventually made the install look really professional. I love this TV and can't wait to experiment with uploading photos and using different mattes. Thumbs up! [I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest feedback.]

Do not buy this TV if you want to use it vertically. Despite all the photos and marketing, it still doesn't work months after my purchase. The TV has an accelerometer in it which can detect when it is oriented vertically. Unfortunately, when it does, it rotates the input 90 degrees. Adjusting the rotation on the source doesn't help either. I have provided a photo in this review. 2 software updates and multiple settings changes do nothing. I bought 2 of these, and I guess now I'll just have to try and sell them to someone who can use it horizontally.

I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest opinion. This TV is the best picture quality I have ever owned. It was easy to set up and has an excellent guided setup instructions. It mounts to the wall just like a picture and looks great with the art work. It is a little difficult to get the art work slideshow working but after a couple of attempts was successful. It automatically scanned the channels on my antenna and has an excellent tuner. I get more channels with this TV from my antenna than I do with my other TV's. I would highly recommend this for anyone that has limited space and enjoys artwork. The smart features of this TV are easy to use and the most popular such as Hulu, YouTube and Netflix are already preloaded. The one I use is Hulu and it works great. I also use Amazon Prime which works great and is easy to access along with Alexa voice control which makes finding programming a breeze.

Easy to mount, especially with the included mount, screws and paper. Setting up was also a breeze and simple. I wish Ethernet was available, especially since this was far from the router, but no complaints other than that. Looks: The Frame included is black - but others can be purchased to look more like a traditional art frame. With ART mode on, the combination is striking. The subscription or self upload ability are a thoughtful option. I tested the mounts prior to the wall mount, and found it easy to install, and great that it can be hidden within the back. I dislike having to store bulky tv mounts I may or may not use. Sound and image: The sound was good enough for a small room, and 4k image is great. Power: I like the sleep mode, and dimming option. It should be a negligible increase in costs with this on more than the usual Tvs. I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest feedback

While I have no doubt the picture would have been nice, I had to return this TV for several reasons: 1. It's 1080P, not 4K. Samsung makes a 32" QLED 4k TV, so why not with the Frame model? 2. No wired Ethernet port on the control box. Only wireless. Deal breaker. 3. OneConnect cable on this model is only 8' long. NOT 15' as stated on the product specs. Deal breaker for me. Need at least 15'.

Be warned, the 32" version of this TV is missing most of the things that you would want in a "frame" TV. Things that are included in the other models of this exact same series. 1) The any connect cable is not the "invisible" thin version. It is a chunky grey cord. I am not sure if it can be replaced. 2) There is no Ambient Mode, which exists on the other models in the series. 3) There is no motion sensor to allow the art to turn on when you walk into a room. 4) There is no AppleTV app or AirPlay2. (yet) Some of these differences are buried in the specs, and the slightly different product pages on the Samsung website, but it is really not at all clear that this is a half-baked version of the other Frame series TVs. Had I known this, I would have not made this purchase. Unfortunately there really aren't ANY options on the market for a TV of this size, to do both TV and art so I guess I'm stuck.

Never knew this product existed. It's virtually a flat, framed picture on your wall (your content choice or choices of picture). But... it is also a full fledged Smart TV! I love it since I was able to enlarge a picture that I always wanted but never could find anywhere. Now, I have it framed on my office wall! Everyone thinks it's a picture too and not a functional TV. Amazing!

Absolutely stunning the only thing I wish I knew or I guess read a little more is that you have to pay for the art on the TV and only stays on for set amount of time.
