Samsung’s 2024 Frame 4K TV is now available for preorder: Get a second TV for free
Samsung
Our readers’ favorite TV just got a new-for-2024 upgrade. Today, Samsung opened preorders for the 2024 edition of its popular Frame TV, the company’s most color-accurate art television to date.
Starting today, when you preorder the 2024 edition of Samsung’s Frame TV in any size, you’ll receive a free 65-inch Samsung TU690T smart TV (a $380 value) with each order. The Frame QLED 4K smart TV now comes in five popular sizes — 43 inches ($999), 50 inches ($1,299), 55 inches ($1,499), 65 inches ($1,999) and 75 inches ($2,999). It has a handful of updated features compared to last year’s bestselling model, as well.
Discover what’s new in the 2024 edition of Samsung’s Frame TV
One of Samsung’s most popular 4K smart TVs has been revamped for 2024. For the first time, all sizes of the Frame TV are now Pantone validated. As a result, when displaying artwork on the screen, each piece looks even more authentic and like an actual painting — just as the artist intended. You’ll see more detail and more accurate colors than ever before.
Samsung is now making a curated selection of 20 different art pieces available each month to display for free. But if you choose to subscribe to Samsung’s Art Store ($5.99 per month), it now includes access to more than 2,500 artworks from world-renowned museums and galleries.
Another technological enhancement is that the TV is more energy efficient. It now offers a dynamic refresh rate, so when you’re viewing artwork, the refresh rate automatically drops down to 60Hz, which reduces electricity consumption. (When watching video content, the TV’s regular refresh rate of 120Hz is used.) This works in conjunction with the TV’s motion sensor, which turns off the TV when nobody is in the room.
Everything we love about the Frame TV (see our full review of the 2023 edition) is still offered in this updated 2024 version. You’ll enjoy a 100% color volume that takes full advantage of Samsung’s Quantum Processor 4K. As a result, TV shows, movies, sports or whatever you’re watching all showcase stunning, bright and accurate colors. The matte finish of the display virtually eliminates unwanted glare.
And thanks to the Frame’s broad viewing angle, wherever you’re sitting in the room, you’ll have a clear view of the content being displayed. As always, a selection of optional magnetically attachable bezels is available to make the Frame TV look like it’s encased within a traditional picture frame when it’s hung on a wall. You can choose the bezel design (between $200 and $300 each) that matches the decor of any room. A company called Deco TV Frames also offers a vast selection of picture frame bezels for the Frame TV that are available from Amazon.
The 2024 version of the Frame TV is available starting today for preorder. Again, to reward customers who preorder this mega-popular TV, you’ll receive a free Samsung 65-inch TU690T smart TV (a $380 value) when you place your order through Samsung’s website.
Samsung’s Music Frame is the perfect companion to the Frame TV
Samsung
To complement the new edition of the Frame TV, we recommend connecting one or two of Samsung’s just-announced Music Frame wireless speakers. These are high-end speakers designed to look just like a picture frame that you can insert your favorite 8 x 8 inch printed photo into.
When you use one speaker with the Frame, you get robust, room-filling sound with Dolby Atmos support. It works in conjunction with your Samsung TV’s internal speakers. However, when you place a Music Frame on either side of the Frame TV (or any Samsung TV for that matter), you’ll experience rich, clear and great sounding stereo audio.
Right now, you can preorder the Music Frame for $400, but you’ll receive an instant $50 credit good toward a future purchase from Samsung’s website.

Kamala Harris will speak with “60 Minutes” tomorrow. Here’s what to know for the interview.
Voters will get the chance to hear from Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday as she presents her case for why she should be president in a “60 Minutes” election special.
For decades, “60 Minutes” has featured both Republican and Democratic nominees for presidents, but this year, former President Donald Trump backed out after previously indicating he would be on the show. Correspondent Scott Pelley, who’d been set to interview Trump, will instead travel to Arizona’s Maricopa County, home to more than 60% of Arizona’s voters and a critical battleground in a key swing state.
One thing is certain about the election; with the U.S. deeply involved in both the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, whoever wins on Nov. 5 will become a wartime president.
What Harris will discuss
Israel’s war started one year ago after Hamas launched a surprise terror attack and correspondent Bill Whitaker will discuss the ongoing war with Harris.
Harris will also discuss the economy, immigration, her record as vice president and the differences between herself and Trump.
Democratic vice presidential candidate Gov. Tim Walz will also appear.
Whitaker joined the Democratic ticket on the campaign trail this week to gain insight into their platform’s priorities and values, and what the candidates believe voters should know.
Why Trump pulled out of the “60 Minutes” interview
Leading up to the candidate hour, Trump, through campaign spokespeople, was the first candidate to accept the “60 Minutes” request to be interviewed for the special, according to CBS News. It had been agreed that both candidates would receive equal time during the broadcast.
Trump last sat down with 60 Minutes in 2020. He walked out during the interview with Lesley Stahl. Trump referenced the incident on Tuesday night at a Milwaukee press conference when asked about his decision not to participate in the Oct. 7 “60 Minutes” election special.
“Well, right now, I went to – they came to me and would like me to do an interview, but first I want to get an apology, because the last time I did an interview with them, if you remember, they challenged me on the computer,” Trump said. “They said the ‘laptop from hell’ was from Russia, and I said it wasn’t from Russia. It was from Hunter, and I never got an apology, so I’m sort of waiting. I’d love to do ’60 Minutes.’ I do everything.”
The Republican nominee for president emphasized that he felt he was owed an apology from “60 Minutes.”
“Let’s see if they do it. I wouldn’t mind doing 60,” Trump continued. “I’ve done ’60 Minutes’ a lot.”
In a statement on Tuesday, Trump campaign communications director Steven Cheung said that Trump’s team had not agreed to an interview.
“Fake News,” Cheung said in a post on X. “60 Minutes begged for an interview, even after they were caught lying about Hunter Biden’s laptop back in 2020. There were initial discussions, but nothing was ever scheduled or locked in. They also insisted on doing live fact checking, which is unprecedented.”
Previous Trump, Harris appearances on 60 Minutes
Trump previously sat down with “60 Minutes'” Mike Wallace in 1985, Pelley in 2015 and Lesley Stahl twice in 2016, first in July of that year and then again in November of 2016. He also spoke with Stahl again in 2018 and 2020.
Harris previously sat down with Whitaker last year. She also was interviewed by Norah O’Donnell, “CBS Evening News” anchor and “60 Minutes” contributing correspondent, in 2020.
