Samsung 49" Class The Frame QLED Smart 4K UHD TV (2019) - Works with Alexa

Having read an earlier negative review on this website I nearly didn't buy the Frame as I primarily wanted to display my own photos using the Mounts. I thought I'd go ahead and buy it anyway and return it if I couldn't do this. It turns out it is quite easy to do so using the Samsung SmartThings app - you can add you own photos, resize and crop them, and choose your mount and the colour of the mount. The app certainly isn't perfect and could do with some improvements and bug-fixes (it often has trouble connecting to the TV when saving photos and you have to press the save button several times when this happens) but it does work. I've attached a picture of the TV with one of my photos on display as an example. If you have a Mac then it's easy to display your screen using AirPlay 2 - we use this a lot to share screens. The TV itself is fine but the picture is not as good quality as the (top of the range) Q9 so if you don't plan on using the Frame features then consider the higher end Q9 TVs instead.

Good: Fantastic QLED screen. A single silver/transparent cable between screen and separate One Connect Box for data and power, as with very large Q85/Q90 TVs, is a really good invention. It does not look like a TV; easy to install with full kit included. Stunning Art (hi-res screen savers), but only 20 images included (free). Very easy to upload own photos with mobile. Good Apps (incl. MetOpera, Apple TV). Improvements: NO AMBIENT MODE!!!! Can delete channels, but cannot re-order. No 'No Mount' option for your own photos. LIMITED mount colours (should have a GRADIENT colour bar for different colours, rather than fixed colours to choose). Subscription is expensive long term, and picture buying option is also expensive. Previous model had many more free pictures. I would buy again because of the Frame design and the single cable. Disappointed by the lack of Ambient Mode, and fixed mount colour options.

We are so pleased that we bought the QLED Frame which we wanted having reviewed many similar products. The bonus for us was dding a Samsung sound bar - brilliant added extra.

I bought the 43" and loved it so much I bought the 55". I love how far Samsung come and the fact that you can upload personal photos. Also the fact that everything ie Netflix and Prime are all accessible easily. The only thing I wish is that the 55" had come with the silver remote that is much more sleek. Well done Samsung

Until now we had a projector at home and we were big on not getting tv at all. But since we seen the frame we said that this will fit in our apartment just right. Tv when you watching your favourite TV shows, art pice once off amazing!

It's fantastic that there is only one transparent cable to the tv, and other cables go through the connect box. Would have preferred two satellite connections rather than one

Have had this television for about a month now. It goes so well in our drawing room. It blends in with the decor and really does just look like a picture frame. The picture quality is amazing as well with 4K and with all the apps built in we haven't actually had to connect any other devices to the TV yet.

best purchase ever! beautiful idea and the art mode makes my wall so interesting

Very happy with tv. Very easy to put up with the built in wall bracket

This is the second Frame I have bought because I was so impressed with the first. There are some new features with the remote but still can't open the other remote to put battery's in and some new Art work which are beautiful. I'm struggling with both Frames to get them to connect to the smart app and can't download my photos which I do think is one of the reasons people buy the Frame so sort it out!! But all in all this is an Awesome Television.
