Samsung just knocked £100 off Frame TV - and it'll give shoppers £75 cash for buying it

Samsung has seen plenty of success with its telly that looks like a piece of art. Called The Frame, this TV packs in all the tech that the number one TV brand is known for, while looking sophisticated on the wall too.

The idea is that instead of having a black rectangle hanging on the wall, the TV can be used to display artwork when not in use. To hide the fact that it's a bit of tech, there are magnetic frames that attach to the TV, so they can be matched to the décor in the room.

I've seen Samsung's 2025 Frame TVs, including a full test of one of the models, and there are plenty of reasons to buy one - not just because there's £100 off the price, along with an offer for £75 cashback.

The discounts mean instantly knocking £175 off the price of this classy TV, but there's also £100 extra if an old TV is recycled. The best part about the recycle offer is that it can be any TV in any size, all trade-in models get the same offer.

So far, we're looking at up to £275 off the price of the Samsung Frame TV, and I've not even said why I think it's worth buying.

The Frame comes in sizes from 43 to 65 inches, with options for white, brown, teak and sand gold frames, which shoppers will have to buy separately. The TV can be mounted so there's almost zero gap against the wall and the Slim Fit Wall Mount comes in the box.

The connections for the TV are via the One Connect box. That means that rather than having cables trailing up the wall to the TV, they plug into the One Connect box, so everything is neat and tidy. It also means that if there's an extra device to be plugged in, the TV doesn't need to be moved or taken off the wall.

The TV itself has a matte finish to the screen. This kills reflections and makes artwork look more authentic because there's no glossy display full of reflections. Art also doesn't shine out like a typical TV picture, it's much more subtly controlled. Some art is free, but other collections require a subscription - something to watch out for. You can also display your own photos if you prefer.

The advantage of having a matte finish is that if the TV is mounted in a bright area - like a conservatory - the reflections won't spoil any TV watching.

This is a 4K HDR TV, so there's plenty of detail and support for the HDR10+ content, which can also be found on the likes of Netflix or Prime Video. This looks great with striking colours. There's no support for Dolby Vision, because Samsung doesn't support Dolby Vision on any of its TVs.

So the frame has a great design, offers excellent picture quality, comes with a wall mount and the clever One Connect box and will seamlessly integrate into you home with the ability to display artwork.

But it's pretty expensive, which is a consideration, even with the discounts that Samsung is currently offering. A downside to its glistening features is certainly the cost.

If you're interested in a cheaper alternative, the Hisense E6Q is a great mid-range option that's more conventional (there's no matte screen on this one), while it also comes with the advantage of offering Freely, the service that will supply UK broadcast TV without an aerial - it can just be streamed over Wi-Fi.

It's a 4K HDR TV - with support for Dolby Vision on this model - while the 58-inch version is £359 on Argos - although there's a bonus 10% discount with the code RED10, which shoppers need to enter just before paying. (There's also double Nectar points, too.)

Alternatively, those looking for a cheaper TV that just does the job and offers a connected experience with access to all the streaming services, then look no further than the Fire TV 2 Series. Both the 32 and 40 inch models of the 2 Series have over 30% off, meaning that they can be snapped up from £169.99 on Amazon right now.
