Choose the Samsung The Frame 2022 if you prefer a stylish TV that can display art and photos with good overall picture quality and performs well in bright rooms. It's more expensive and suited for wall mounting with no included stand. If you're looking for a more affordable option and can compromise on picture quality, including for gaming and sports, the Samsung N5200 may suffice, but it has significant limitations in bright room performance and does not support advanced HDR formats for high-quality movie viewing. Neither TV is ideal for dark rooms or wide viewing angles. For gaming, The Frame 2022 offers a better experience. Give Feedback

"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."
