If you're on a budget and a smaller screen is acceptable, the Samsung N5200 with its budget price could work for you; however, it has poor overall picture quality and isn't ideal for any particular type of content, especially in bright rooms. On the other hand, the Samsung Frame Series, while more expensive, offers better picture quality, particularly for viewing in bright rooms, and has a stylish design that doubles as a digital photo frame when not in use. It's a better choice for movies and animated content, though its performance is only fair for gaming and sports. If aesthetics and a multifunctional display are important to you, and you are willing to pay more, the Frame Series might be the more attractive option. Give Feedback
