Samsung The Frame LS03D (2024)

The Frame is Samsung's lifestyle TV — a 4K QLED dressed as a piece of wall art with an anti-reflective matte finish and customisable bezels. Connectivity is handled entirely through the included One Connect Box, linked to the panel by a single near-invisible cable that also carries power. The Box has four HDMI ports, but unlike the brand's flagship sets only one is full HDMI 2.1 (40 Gbps); the other three are HDMI 2.0b. There are two USB Type-A 2.0 ports, an Ethernet jack, an Optical TOSLINK output and an RF antenna input.

Samsung’s 2024 lifestyle 4K QLED with One Connect Box: 1× HDMI 2.1 + 3× HDMI 2.0b, 2× USB-A, Ethernet and Optical out.
