WEBVTT

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:07.839
wife acceptance factor. It is an acronym from the home theater world from way

00:00:04.839 --> 00:00:10.400
back and it is the reason why people buy

00:00:07.839 --> 00:00:14.719
these Samsung frame TVs. They're TVs that look like art when you're not using

00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:18.640
them, which is pretty sweet. Look, there's another one. That one is from

00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:22.880
Highense, a competitor. So many people care about your TV looking good when

00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:26.560
you're not using it and not just looking like a black square that there's

00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:30.880
competition in this marketplace. But here's the problem. The Samsung Frame TV

00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:37.920
that I have kind of sucks at looking like art. That looks great. Does this

00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:37.920
new Samsung Frame Pro look any

00:00:38.360 --> 00:00:44.640
better? Okay, cut that. What I've pulled

00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:46.320
out of the box so far, feet, which seem

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:49.920
weird. Like, don't buy this TV if you plan to use feet. Wall mount it, please.

00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:54.800
That's the whole point. Uh, looks like power cables and the remote. We'll look

00:00:51.680 --> 00:00:56.960
at that later. An included wall mount.

00:00:54.800 --> 00:01:02.480
Screw the feet. And this one really sucks up to the wall, I believe. And

00:00:59.559 --> 00:01:06.640
this a wireless one connect box, which is different from the nonpro. This puppy

00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:11.600
is going to connect to the TV wirelessly. You're still going to connect power to the wall, so your TV

00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:16.720
won't just be floating there in space, but you won't have to fish a wire

00:01:13.520 --> 00:01:19.759
through your wall just for this stuff.

00:01:16.720 --> 00:01:23.280
Here we have four HDMI 2.1 ports that

00:01:19.759 --> 00:01:25.520
all support 4K at 144 hertz, not even

00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:31.200
120. So, that's cool. one of these little boomer nubbins over here, a LAN

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:32.640
port, and then a toss link um fiber

00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:37.439
optical port. And then you can see the power port is actually USBC form factor.

00:01:35.600 --> 00:01:43.439
What's over here? Oh, there's a pairing button now because it's

00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:46.320
wireless. Ah, it's tradeoffs. Oh, and on

00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:51.759
the side, you've got a couple USB ports. This is the 65in model of the Frame Pro.

00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:56.880
One thing that differentiates the Frame Pro is that you can get larger models.

00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:58.799
There's a 75 and even one that's over 80

00:01:56.880 --> 00:02:02.439
because maybe you want like a life-size Jackson Pollock in your living room, not

00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:06.560
just a 65 in one. Hell, put it in your stairwell. So,

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:12.080
now we're going to get it mounted on this cool flippy cart so I can show you

00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:12.080
a 360 tour

00:02:12.760 --> 00:02:20.840
easily. There's just a little bit of play

00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:23.440
here, which is, you know, fine.

00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:28.480
But now you know. I'm not going to mount it using their mount. But what I will do

00:02:25.920 --> 00:02:32.480
is show you what's in the box. This is like an unboxing of an unboxing. This is

00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:36.879
a template to put on your wall to help you place the mount. An anchor guide in

00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:41.840
case you're using drywall or brick or what. Other precautions when you're mounting the wall. Little transparent

00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:44.879
stickers that I believe are for taping the template to the wall with, you know,

00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:49.680
just in a non-stick way so you don't screw up your wall. Mounting plates.

00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:54.120
Look at that. That's the hook. hooks on there. And the plates that they mount to

00:02:53.200 --> 00:02:58.239
with magnets. What are those for? How do they

00:02:56.239 --> 00:03:01.599
work? Little adhesive pads. Thin ones and thick ones so that the other parts

00:03:00.160 --> 00:03:07.040
of your TV that would be resting against your paint job on your wall aren't. They're resting on these. And some

00:03:04.720 --> 00:03:09.920
fairly long and thick drywall anchors. But what I'm looking for are these

00:03:08.720 --> 00:03:14.280
little screws for the back of the TV, which I'm going to use with our mount.

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:24.640
Oh my god. Bit of a weird back of the TV

00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:28.239
because it uses the one connect box which has been around for years. Uh, and

00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:32.799
it's weird because there's no IO other than a couple USB ports. And even that's

00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:36.799
weird. There's no USBA. It's microb. There's a picture of a controller. And

00:03:34.480 --> 00:03:40.319
then there's a USBC. And other than that, there are no ports except for

00:03:38.480 --> 00:03:44.319
power, which is right here. And we'll get to that in a second. Right after we

00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:48.720
look at the feets, which again, don't use these, but if you do, kind of a good

00:03:46.720 --> 00:03:55.120
system. They go on toollessly, and there are two heights, low and high. The two

00:03:51.840 --> 00:04:00.319
feet are 40 in apart, and they go on by

00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:00.319
sticking them on and pulling them

00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:12.080
down. Wait up. Pulling them up.

00:04:10.640 --> 00:04:16.479
The power goes in here and they do have a cable channel. It does have little

00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:21.120
friction teeth to bite it in there, but it's pretty weak. Um, anyway, you can

00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:27.400
route it down towards the foot and you can use this included cable holder to

00:04:23.280 --> 00:04:33.080
bite the back of the foot to make

00:04:27.400 --> 00:04:33.080
stay to make it discreet.

00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:41.440
So, this cable will still be dangling. Or ideally, you've got an outlet that's

00:04:39.280 --> 00:04:44.479
high above your TV. Or if you don't have one of those, maybe you have one of

00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:48.160
those kits that takes a outlet from lower down and brings it up high. Just

00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:52.639
make sure you're adhering to your local building codes so that your insurance

00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:55.680
isn't void. That apparently was a problem with the non-wireless one

00:04:54.080 --> 00:05:01.360
connect boxes cuz people were running both uh power and the connection to this

00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:04.800
through the wall and then this box comes out the bottom of your TV. And if your

00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:09.360
house burned down, that wasn't a fire rated cable, so your insurance was not

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:13.280
going to help you. Uh, now that's not a problem, at least for the connection

00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:17.800
aspect. You're on your own for the power. By the way, it also comes with

00:05:15.280 --> 00:05:23.840
this USBC power brick, which is pretty compact and this cable. It's about 6 ft

00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:28.400
long USBC for plugging in the One Connect box. Oh yeah, we're going to get

00:05:26.400 --> 00:05:33.919
this whole video turned around and started on right after this. No. Thanks

00:05:31.919 --> 00:05:37.120
to Incogn for sponsoring this video. If you're getting random calls or texts in

00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:40.800

00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:16.000
screen. I feel like I'm giving a PowerPoint. Uh you can actually skip

00:06:13.520 --> 00:06:18.880
connecting to the one connect box. Crazy. But it automatically just did it.

00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:27.319
I didn't have to hit the pairing button on the one connect box. It's just advancing my slides for me. Um is great.

00:06:23.840 --> 00:06:27.319
That's all true.

00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:33.919
And another note is you can do this setup on your phone. There's a QR code to scan at the beginning of this, but I

00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:38.000
opted to use the remote which is smaller than the remote I have for my frame.

00:06:36.080 --> 00:06:43.440
Mine's a couple years old, but it's like this long and it's black. Um, but like

00:06:40.400 --> 00:06:46.560
my remote, it has a solar panel uh thing

00:06:43.440 --> 00:06:48.319
for charging or USB. See that? Switch to

00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:53.440
art mode. That's what we're here for, boys. Try using your remote and see if

00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:55.840
it works. I hope so. So, you hit the power. If you click the power button,

00:06:54.639 --> 00:07:00.720
you'll switch to art mode. If you hold the power button, your TV will turn off.

00:06:57.840 --> 00:07:04.639
So, I got a response. It didn't actually show me. Show me the art. Okay, it's

00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:08.560
telling me the button works. Okay, brightness optimization is on. And I

00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:14.000
think that's a good thing. And I think it relates the problem I have with my

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:18.560
frame, which is it's by a pretty bright window, which I believe makes it want to

00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:22.880
crank the brightness all the time, which I believe makes it look like a normal

00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:28.080
TV. It doesn't look like an art at all, even when dim. Um, maybe I need to turn

00:07:25.919 --> 00:07:31.599
that setting on. Wow. Is this This is just dark patterning me. I don't care

00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:35.840
about this stuff. I want to see the art. There's no way to get There's no button

00:07:33.440 --> 00:07:40.400
but start setup. Bring me the arts. There it is. That looks bad. Does that

00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:46.479
look like a matte piece of art on a canvas to you or what? It's so yellow. I

00:07:44.479 --> 00:07:50.560
think that looks like a TV. Maybe a different art piece will be better.

00:07:47.840 --> 00:07:53.520
Like, look at it compared to that thing. We can't compare because it's not the

00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:58.080
right. It's You got to use a piece of art. It's a photo. This is a photo, not

00:07:56.080 --> 00:08:02.879
an art. You're saying photos are not art. You

00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:05.280
heard what I said. So art. I can't I

00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:05.280
have to go to

00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:14.240
setup. All right. Finally, we're signed in. We're ready to look at the art. Now,

00:08:11.919 --> 00:08:18.639
one thing to consider is how you get the art onto your TV. They're about to show

00:08:16.479 --> 00:08:23.680
us their ad for what they want us to buy for $5 a month, a subscription. You can

00:08:21.280 --> 00:08:26.400
use your phone. Just get photos from wherever you get them or artworks from

00:08:25.280 --> 00:08:32.240
wherever you get them and put them on there. In my experience, it was a very clunky and the app was very slow and

00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:36.159
very janky to use. I don't know if it's just a weaponized incompetence, but man,

00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:39.200
do they they made it so hard to put art on the TV that I just gave up and

00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:43.200
whatever's on there is on there at this point. Highdefin artwork from top

00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:47.279
museums and artists. That's something they could be gating. Like maybe you

00:08:45.040 --> 00:08:51.680
can't get 4K stuff on here unless you use the membership. Art streams always

00:08:49.760 --> 00:08:56.080
fresh. Always free. Like your Spotify, what is that? Weekly. It's also not

00:08:53.519 --> 00:09:00.720
always free. It's a trial. Always free for one week. Always fresh. Always free.

00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:05.600
As long as you pay us monthly, we'll keep giving you free stuff. Not ready

00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:08.880
for art? Frame your photos. Yes, you can put your pictures on here of your kids

00:09:07.040 --> 00:09:14.160
and stuff, which is cringe, but possible. Let's just try this Wes

00:09:11.920 --> 00:09:18.440
Anderson barbecue. You guys know what peacocks sound like?

00:09:20.880 --> 00:09:27.120
Trust me, that's impeccable. Impeccable. This looks like

00:09:24.880 --> 00:09:33.440
something that would look like art if it was in front of you. Okay. Okay. Look,

00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:39.040
there's a progress bar counting down. You can only look what's going to

00:09:35.880 --> 00:09:42.959
happen. Give us money. That's just a lot

00:09:39.040 --> 00:09:45.680
of money per year. Uh $8 a month. five

00:09:42.959 --> 00:09:50.240
US a month. I feel like it should be like a buck a month or just free. You

00:09:47.839 --> 00:09:53.680
spent so much money on this TV. Like I get that they have to license the art,

00:09:51.760 --> 00:09:58.160
but like they can pay for that. I don't know. They have a kind of like art

00:09:55.920 --> 00:10:02.040
dashboard here where there's well there's recent um there's my stuff which

00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:06.560
is empty right now. Uh and then there's like these

00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:12.640
playlists sort of from people like this this Brian RDE guy. Come on rude boy.

00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:17.000
You like Star Wars. You could see the brightness changes when you go even to

00:10:14.959 --> 00:10:22.560
this screen from the last one. You were like a brother to me. What

00:10:19.920 --> 00:10:27.839
if they just kissed right then? Masters Van Go 26 pieces. It like it looks

00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:34.160
pretty good. I wish we could pull up that one cuz I feel like this high

00:10:30.920 --> 00:10:37.000
sense does look better. Like I feel like

00:10:34.160 --> 00:10:43.440
this one isn't very evenly lit despite being what do they call it? a a neo

00:10:40.160 --> 00:10:47.360
cueled which means it's mini LED. It

00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:50.079
still is edge lit and it makes it less

00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:54.160
evenly lit across the piece which makes it look less realistic. One of the

00:10:51.920 --> 00:11:00.320
things the TV has to make it look like art when in art mode is a matte finish.

00:10:56.880 --> 00:11:02.320
So you can see this very bright light,

00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:07.680
you know, doesn't cause too much reflection on the TV. If we compare that

00:11:04.160 --> 00:11:10.839
to the High Sense TV, actually seems

00:11:07.680 --> 00:11:14.320
less matte. I can see this light

00:11:10.839 --> 00:11:16.240
more, but that is a darker image on it

00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:20.560
right now. So, not only does that help enhance the art piece looking aspect of

00:11:19.120 --> 00:11:26.480
it, but it also helps in a room that's not light controlled for you to be able to watch TV in the middle of the day.

00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:31.360
These TVs were really impressive like 5 years ago when they first kind of came

00:11:27.920 --> 00:11:33.519
out, but or eight years ago, but now I

00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:36.959
don't know. I'm thinking this high senses kind of surpassed them. Okay, we

00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:42.800
set up the app on the phone so that we could send an image to the TV and it has

00:11:39.839 --> 00:11:47.279
popped up like this, which is too bright. Definitely doesn't look like a

00:11:44.160 --> 00:11:49.600
matte piece of art. Um, looks bad. But

00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:56.160
with art that you put on, you can actually go to this settings kind of

00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:57.680
option here and mess around. So, let's

00:11:56.160 --> 00:12:02.240
see. You can change the color mat and the and the matte color and the photo

00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:05.760
filter. So, let's start at the top. Um, do you want a mat around it? I think

00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:11.000
that sometimes makes it look better. So, let's And then finally, photo filter.

00:12:08.480 --> 00:12:17.680
Oh, Lord, what a sacrilege to do to a master. Uh, we'll

00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:21.600
just we'll just not do one of those. But what we will do is go into the second

00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:25.920
menu, screen settings. I think the brightness is really the problem here.

00:12:23.800 --> 00:12:30.399
Now, people in the room, you tell me. Does that look more like art? Does that

00:12:27.760 --> 00:12:35.440
look more like a dim TV? Dim TV. Dim TV. But what if you didn't

00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:41.639
subscribe to real art and you didn't pirate real art. Instead, you just

00:12:38.800 --> 00:12:46.560
created fake art. There's an AI slot mode. I'm going to seize my day. Oh my

00:12:45.040 --> 00:12:50.480
god, look at that. You You basically get to design a prompt and then tell it to

00:12:48.880 --> 00:12:55.440
regenerate if you don't like it. These all really look like photos more than

00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:58.920
art. That's a good tea time photo. This

00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:58.920
dingy room.

00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:08.160
That is so weird. One last final thing to talk about with the art piece aspect

00:13:04.880 --> 00:13:10.160
of this TV is the frames of the frame.

00:13:08.160 --> 00:13:14.240
On the frame TV that I have at home, I have some frames that actually look like

00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:18.320
this. Um, they're a light wood color and they they click on and off. And you'll

00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:22.720
want those for these probably unless you just want black. But the problem is you

00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:26.480
can't buy them right now at the time we're making this video. But also, you

00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:30.560
can't just go on, say, marketplace or from your frame from your old TV and

00:13:29.040 --> 00:13:35.200
snap them on here because they're not compatible. They're not backwards

00:13:32.360 --> 00:13:39.079
compatible. So annoying. Um, so you're kind of just you're you're using black,

00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:43.920
baby. That's it. Now, we want to know how good it is

00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:48.480
at just being a TV. And well, I mean, motion smoothing's on out of the box. It

00:13:45.760 --> 00:13:51.760
looks like a fine TV. It's like pretty vibrant right now. I was wondering if

00:13:50.160 --> 00:13:54.880
the remote's battery was dying or something cuz like holy cow, it took a

00:13:53.360 --> 00:14:01.959
long time for this settings menu to pop up here. As far as picture quality goes,

00:13:57.199 --> 00:14:04.560
it seems okay. Um, starting at

00:14:01.959 --> 00:14:09.519
$2,200 before your art subscription, before you buy frames, if and when they

00:14:06.880 --> 00:14:15.440
ever come out, you're not getting a lot of TV for that price. You can you can

00:14:11.920 --> 00:14:17.040
get an OLED for that price. So clearly

00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:21.040
you're paying for the art component of it which in my opinion it doesn't do a

00:14:19.199 --> 00:14:25.600
great job of. The other thing is gaming. Like would you want to game on this

00:14:22.880 --> 00:14:29.920
given that it is wirelessly transmitting to its one connect box and that is your

00:14:27.760 --> 00:14:34.560
only option. You're just signing up for input lag. Like literally out of the

00:14:31.920 --> 00:14:40.720
box. Um so if gaming is important to you I would probably avoid this TV. In my

00:14:37.040 --> 00:14:42.560
house I have a QLED. Um basically I have

00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:47.600
a serious TV and then I have one of these. The frame TV in my house is a is

00:14:44.959 --> 00:14:53.839
a secondary TV. It's like this big. It's in the living room just for casual

00:14:50.160 --> 00:14:57.600
viewing. I don't know if I would get a

00:14:53.839 --> 00:15:01.360
frame from like my main TV, but depends.

00:14:57.600 --> 00:15:03.199
Uh maybe you just want a TV for um

00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:07.680
looking at art poorly. You know, if that's your main

00:15:04.519 --> 00:15:09.279
thing, here it is. You can do it. It

00:15:07.680 --> 00:15:12.880
still sucks. The frame still sucks, guys. It hasn't changed my mind. Don't get the Pro. Thanks for watching, guys.

00:15:11.839 --> 00:15:18.639
Let us know in the comments what you think. Is this something that should even be charged extra for? It's

00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:26.079
basically just another app on your TV and a matte finish. Would you pay for

00:15:20.880 --> 00:15:26.079
that? Would you? Would you?
