At CES 2023, Samsung unveiled its new lineup of TVs, including refreshed Neo QLED and QD-OLED models. Back then, however, there was no concrete information if the brand was updating The Frame TV for 2023. Well, today, we have an answer for it, and if you were planning to get The Frame, you might not like what we have to tell.
Samsung has updated only the 32-inch model in The Frame TV lineup for 2023. There are no new variants for other sizes, which means you'll see a ‘2022' tag on all the other models in the lineup. At least that’s what Samsung’s official website for the US suggests. The 2023 version of The Frame TV 32-inch comes with model number QN32LS03CBFXZA. Last year’s model carries model number QN32LS03BBFXZA.
Just like the model number, there’s very little change to the feature list as well. The only additional feature that the new model offers is Motion Sensor, which is already present in all the other sizes in the lineup. This feature intelligently detects if there are people in the room. If the sensor detects a person, it displays artwork on the screen, and if there’s no one in the room, it turns off the TV to save power.
According to What Hi-Fi, the new 32-inch model should also offer Dual LED Backlight technology, which the larger models in the lineup already have. However, we couldn’t find its existence on the product’s official page. Surprisingly, Samsung is selling the new model for the same price as the old one, at $599. But we guess it’s only a matter of time before the company drops the price of the older model or discontinues it.
