Samsung Music Frame Impressions | This Sneaky Speaker Has Surprisingly Massive Sound
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- We got a chance to check out Samsung's 2024 home theatre products at their facilities recently and we liked what we saw. Their humble Samsung Music Frame doubles as a powerful, satellite speaker for a soundbar and a standalone Dolby Atmos-enabled wireless speaker. Samsung’s 2024 The Frame TV's standout feature is its ability to give you an art gallery experience when you’re not watching TV, but it’s also a pretty great TV in its own right.

Also make sure to check out Simon's hands-on impressions of the Music Frame: www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/samsung-music-frame-review/
Why would one want to connect ONE frame to your 990D sound bar? Wouldn't 2 make a lot more sense?
Yes, but you can't
Can a pair of them be configured as side/rear surround channels? If not they should make that available.
They should is right.... or front wides.
Saw this at the end of Jan was pretty cool actually! Only downside is cables
The fact that it's said to only be compatible with 2024 TVs - even though that would be an easy software fix for older TVs - is utterly stupid. Then again, I don't believe that the music frame would significantly enhance a Q990D setup anyway.
From what I’ve been told, Samsung’s 2024 TVs (some of them) have a new hardware implementation that involves a few new chipsets, including one for security, and another for smart device implementation. I have not gotten them to speak to whether matter and thread are supported, and I think we’ll all know Samsung wants its customers fully invested in its own Smart Things device system, but I’m reasonably certain music frame’s compatibility is tied to hardware, not software. So it’s a matter of can’t, not won’t with prior gen TVs
This was by far the coolest product they presented during first look 2024 when I attended that before it was showed at CES 2024
100 percent agree
Samsung would've made this even more interesting if they had an actual screen where either the artwork or music visualization. No need for an amoled screen, but that would've made this thing easy more interesting. I guess they'll call it the "ultra" and charge more for it 😂
My question is why did Samsung decide to limit this from working with the Q990D?
Unfortunately, it seems the 2024 q-symphony TV is mandatory.
From a marketing perspective, I would presume so, but I would believe they might offer this for the C in the future
@@H3lloSE the C model is from 2023. So wouldn't it make more sense for the 2024 D model?
@@jonosonokinda sucks for people who bought a sound bar last year or in 2022 tho..
From a review I watched this only pairs with a Samsung 2024 TV. And not the 990D soundbar.
Cool looking device. Like the idea that it can play Atmos. Nice job!
Began to sound suspiciously like a commercial…😟
You’re wrong
Gotta disagree. But then, I’ve known and worked with Simon for over 10 years, thus I have intimate knowledge of the fact that Simon is never gracious with his appraisal unless the device earns it. I gotta say, the Music Frame is pretty impressive. And I’m not surprised. Since acquiring Herman Kardon and building itself an audio testing lab, its soundbars in particular have started earning acclaim. The Music Frame seems like an extension of that success.
That's because it was.
Shut your eyes and he sounds just like Rick Steves. Are we in Italy? I love these products.
Just a single frame for the Q symphony and not the pair?
Article clarifies further: “Alternatively, a single Music Frame can act as a wireless surround-center channel speaker when used with a compatible Samsung TV and soundbar (like the HW-Q990D).”
Now great I use Apple TV box can I connect more than one ?
I wish it had some smart display so I can shuffle some photos
Now, it will make sense to get the hw-q800d soundbar
Better to get an actual surround system with actual speakers instead of soundbar
@@DeepDishPizza not if space constraint is an issue. Soundbars can be a better choice in some situations.
@@jonosono If you don't have space for a true surround system then don't get a sound bar.
@@DeepDishPizza that's like saying deep dish pizza is the only true pizza and if you aren't going to get deep dish, don't get pizza.
That doesn't make sense.
@@jonosono But deep dish pizza isn’t the the only true pizza. That honor would belong to Chicago Thin Crust. Not opinion. Fact.
If only it was digital with some kind of OLED.
Hi @digitaltrends , will simon be doing a full review soon as indicated in the article? Would love know how stereo pairing is like as stand alone pair without Q symphony! Thx!
Hi, is it possible to combine a Samsung The Frame 85 inches with 2 Music Frames without a soundbar? I own a 2023 model.
No it can only be used with a 2024 q990D or 2024 samsung TV......
Thank you.
how is it powered?
Can we give credit to Sonos x Ikea for creating this wall picture frame concept? Yes it doesnt have a screen but I recall them offering different covers that showcased different art designs. I love Samsung but they definitely piggybacked off that idea.
I understand the appeal of a speaker like this, but this video is basically a commercial for the product...or is that the whole point?
Yeah I'm gonna need a little more on the critical feedback side of things from Simon. It does sound a bit fanboy-ish.
Also, would love to actually know from Simon how it DOES sound mounted to a wall. Love Digital Trends but I think we need a bit more of a push towards the "we put it through its paces and here are the results" and less of a "did you know this thing is out...isn't it cool?" video.
Picture frame with wires sticking out? No thanks
Why is it not digital photo frame? Why would someone spend $749 AUD for a old paper photo frame + music speaker.
I saw the Ready for it? Taylor Swift music video on the new 2024 Samsung frame TV
Wow a cone of sound instead of a sphere of sound like every speaker in the world? 😅 And even if they restricted the spherical wave into a cone, it wouldn't make it more 3D than a sphere and it would bounce down from the ceiling the same way.
Seriously guys, as much as these speakers look cool you should remember physics and not read and repeat the silly Samsung advert.
ITS not wireless!
Cool product in theory, but at the end of the day I feel like it's way too niche and given the fact it uses high end technology and that it's a Samsung product, it's probably gonna cost like a million dollars 🙄. Like, I'd be very surprised if this doesn't flop hard
It will certainly make for a fun talking point, but they won't actually sell very many of them.
The Music Frame does not support Wi-Fi 6.
I mean it’s nothing ikea hasn’t been doing for years
Mark Knopfler is one of the greatest guitarists in history. Good choice of music you mentioned
We need a break out audio company to do something incredible. It's time.
Wired, I’m out! With battery technology why is it so hard to find affordable battery powered Bluetooth speakers for our sound systems in 2024? Why not build these with a battery we need to charge once a month and we could place 10-15 feet away on the wall with no cords? I’ll guess I’ll see that review in 2030 or later!
What speaker do you own that you only need to charge once a month?
@@ishkapiska4516 None, that’s my point. If I have 20 other pieces of electronics that can do it, some brilliant engineer should be able to figure out a battery powered speaker
@@pilotbsinthesky3443 what other pieces of electronics have a battery that lasts a month? Idk any. The one that’s lasted the longest was my fit bit(4days without charging)
@@pilotbsinthesky3443 and what other pieces of battery powered electronics do you own that actually work all the time for an entire month without charging?? The thing that lasts the longest without charge for me is my fit bit which lasts 4days MAX..
Unfortunately, battery tech just isn't quite that good yet.
Call me a Boomer or whatever (even though I'm a Millenial) but one thing I absolutely hate about todays technology was perfectly demonstrated in this video. While watching, my TV's spy software that I cant disable popped up twice.
All of that stuff should be able to be disabled completely by the end user. PERIOD.
how come you never review Harman Kardon products??
Because you can’t spell their name correctly
Alexa👎 Google👎
I feel bad for people who buy soundbars.
