Samsung's latest Frame TV features enhance HDR and new smart controls

Samsung announced the next generation of its Focus TV TV focused on design, which now offers additional customization features and a much wider choice of art.

The TV has a 4K UHD display (like its predecessor) HDR10 + – an improvement over HDR Pro, the original version came with – and features new intelligent features so that users can transfer them. Wi-Fi and Samsung account details from a phone to the TV without re-entering the passwords. It also ships with Bixby so that voice commands can be used to show shows and control compatible home devices such as smart lights and sound bars. (However, it should be noted that Samsung has struggled to try to get people to use Bixby.)

The idea with the TV Frame is that when it is not used as a traditional TV, it doubles as an art exhibit, bike through photographs, paintings, drawings, and more collected from museums, archives, and leading artists around the world . You can buy individual art works, or you can subscribe to the Samsung Art Store for $ 4.99 a month. New subscribers get a free month.

The art can be browsed and selected according to the color of the piece or media created. Then, as a musical playlist, the TV frame walks through the art collection that you put together. The TV frame sensors adjust the brightness of the screen according to the time and ambient light in the room. It also offers four different bezel colors – black, white, walnut and beige wood – that can be attached by magnets to match the decor in your space.

The new TV frame is available today on the Samsung website and will be available at retailers this month. There are two sizes, a 55-inch version for $ 1,999 and a 65-inch version for $ 2,700.
