The Samsung 65-Inch Class The Frame 4K QLED Smart TV is down to $999.99 from $1,799.99, so you are looking at an $800 discount on a very feature-packed TV. This one is aimed at people who want a big screen but do not like the way a normal TV looks in the room. The Frame is made to look like wall art when you are not watching it, and the 65-inch size (real 64.5 inches) gives you a large picture for movies, sports, and games. You still get full 4K resolution at 3,840 x 2,160, plus a matte screen that cuts down on glare, which helps if you have windows or lights all around your living room. Instead of seeing your own reflection all the time, you actually see the picture.
On the picture side, this TV uses a QLED panel with the NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor and 4K AI Upscaling, so even older HD content looks sharper. Quantum HDR, HDR10+ for both adaptive and gaming, and HLG support all work to keep bright scenes bright and dark scenes detailed, without washing everything out. Features like Dual LED contrast, Supreme UHD Dimming, Real Depth Enhancer, and a wide viewing angle are there so you can sit off to the side and still see a clear image, and not lose contrast. Motion Xcelerator 144Hz and a native 120Hz refresh rate are handy if you watch a lot of sports or game on a newer console or PC, since motion stays smoother with less blur. Film Mode and Filmmaker Mode give you presets that aim for a more movie-like look, and Auto HDR Remastering and EyeComfort Mode are nice if you watch a lot at night and want the TV to tone things down for your eyes.
Audio is not an afterthought on this model. It comes with 40W of sound output in a 2.0.2 channel setup, which means you get some height sound cues without extra speakers, and it supports Dolby Atmos for more surround-style audio. Adaptive Sound Pro and Object Tracking Sound help adjust the sound to what is on screen, so voices and on-screen movement feel more tied to the picture. Q-Symphony lets the TV speakers work with a Samsung soundbar if you add one later, instead of turning the TV speakers off. You also get Bluetooth Audio and 360 Audio support, which is handy if you want to use wireless headphones or certain earbuds at night without waking anyone.
On the smart side, you are getting Tizen Smart TV with built-in Bixby and Alexa, plus support for Alexa and Google Assistant smart speakers. That makes it simple to change channels, launch apps, or control smart home gear with your voice. Samsung TV Plus, a web browser, Samsung Health, and Universal Guide give you free channels, basic browsing, workout content, and content suggestions in one place. SmartThings Hub with Matter support and IoT-sensor features let the TV act as a basic smart home hub, and Quick Remote makes it easier to control connected devices. For daily use, the multi-device features are useful: TV-to-mobile and mobile-to-TV mirroring, sound mirroring, wireless TV on, Tap View, Buds Auto Switch, and Multi-View for up to two videos at once. That means you can watch a game in one window and a YouTube video or social feed in another. If you want a TV that doubles as art, handles bright rooms well, and still checks the box for movies, sports, and gaming, grabbing this model at $999.99 instead of $1,799.99 is a strong deal.
