The Samsung Frame Series offers a unique design that blends with your home decor and is generally less expensive. It's better suited if you're into gaming and your budget is a concern. However, the QN95B provides superior overall picture and sound quality, and brighter images making it better for bright rooms and HDR content. If you're a movie enthusiast or love watching sports, the QN95B might be worth the extra cost. Both handle reflections well and have low input lag for gaming, but the QN95B has a better sound setup.
