If you prefer a TV that serves as a decorative piece, displaying photos and art with a customizable frame when not in use, the Samsung The Frame 2022 might be worth the extra expense. It also performs better in bright rooms and offers a more reliable quality control. However, it's worth noting that for gaming purposes, the Frame's performance is less than ideal. On the other hand, the Amazon 4-Series is considerably cheaper but comes with poorer performance across all areas including picture quality and sound. It might be suitable for occasional, casual viewing but won't match the Samsung in most viewing environments or content quality. Both TVs may not be the best choice if you're looking for an impressive gaming experience. Give Feedback

Jim Martin | May 2023
"The attraction here is that the 4-Series uses Amazon’s Fire TV interface. Picture quality is good but unexceptional. At the discounted prices, which can seemingly be had regularly, they are better value."

"The biggest, and most jarring, difference is the revolutionary matte, anti-glare coating on the 2022’s display. Not only does it solve my daytime glare problem of being in a corner apartment, but it somehow adds texture to anything being displayed. The Frame is a home run for anyone looking to add fashion to their function."
