If you're looking for a TV that doubles as a decorative piece, the Samsung The Frame is designed to display art and photos when not in use, providing a unique aesthetic that complements your room but requires wall mounting as it doesn't come with a stand. The Samsung offers good performance in bright rooms and better upscaling of low-resolution content, which is useful if you watch older shows or DVDs. However, if gaming performance, speaker setup variety like Dolby Atmos or DTS:X, and lower price are more important to you, the Hisense U6K, with its miniLED backlighting and support for advanced gaming features like 4K at 120Hz input, might be the better option, although it doesn't perform as well in bright conditions and may not display colors as accurately out of the box. Both TVs have their limitations, like the Samsung's poorer gaming experience and Hisense's modest bright room performance, so consider what content you watch most and your room's lighting conditions when making your decision.

CNN
Tobey Grumet | May 2023
"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."
