  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    Amazing TV and solid build.

    Setup was a snap since we already owned the The Frame TV. We are using it in a covered area, so partial sun is perfect. The internal speakers are OK, but probably enough if you have neighbors but if you are not worried about disturbing your neighbors get the sound bar.

  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    Great TV

    Replaced a 2 year old patio tv when the picture went out. I was able to purchase this TV on sale but it still cost twice as much as the old one. So far no regrets, been using it for a month now. I really like the picture, very sharp and the sound is fine for TV. The previous TV had a soundbar and this TV sounds better without a soundbar.
