In a world where technology meets art, the canvas-like designs of TVs are gaining popularity. One of the latest additions to this trend is TCL’s newly announced 4K QLED NXTFrame TV. This TV boasts features that cater to art enthusiasts, including a magnetic wooden frame, flush-to-wall mount, an “ultra matte” display, and various gallery modes for showcasing images.
Here are some key points about the TCL NXTFrame TV:
- Available in four sizes: 55-inch ($1,500), 65-inch ($2,000), and 75-inch ($2,500) models in the US, with a larger 85-inch model coming in September for $4,000.
- Comparable pricing to Samsung’s Frame TV with similar specifications.
- A more expensive NXTFrame Pro series starting at $2,000 offers upgraded audio with a Bang & Olufsen soundbar and wireless subwoofer system.
- Features a 144hz variable refresh rate and supports HDR10, HDR10 Plus, Dolby Atmos Audio, and AMD FreeSync Premium.
While the NXTFrame TV offers impressive features, its focus remains on transforming the TV into a piece of art within your home. With off-white bezels that blend seamlessly into any décor, TCL provides options to personalize your art gallery experience. The TV comes with a preloaded art library, allows for personal photo gallery displays, and introduces an AI Art feature for a customized art curation.
One of the drawbacks is the limited choice in frame color, with only a single light wood option available at the moment. However, TCL does include the magnetic frame for free, setting it apart from competitors who charge extra for this feature. As more brands venture into the aesthetics-focused TV market, it’s likely that we’ll see a variety of canvas-inspired offerings vying for a spot in this growing trend.
As the trend of Art TVs continues to rise, TCL’s NXTFrame TV offers a blend of technology and artistry for a unique viewing experience. With its attention to detail and focus on aesthetics, this TV is poised to appeal to consumers seeking a TV that doubles as a piece of art in their living spaces.
