I also tested movies using the Mubi app because I’m a fuddy-duddy film fanatic, as well as a screener for Marty Supreme. Here’s where the upscaling, matte display, and AI truly shine: Marty Supreme is like an old ’70s flick, and The Frame Pro made me think I was in a movie theater. The matte display gave the Mubi films a more cinematic look.
On an Xbox Series X, I watched the entire Predator: Badlands film using the 4K Blu-ray version. It’s worth noting that though the colors look great, Samsung models don’t support Dolby Vision HDR, instead going for standard HDR10+.
For a more pure movie experience that disables any optimizations or AI enhancements, I tested the Filmmaker picture setting. In one scene, you can see the individual scales of the main character, which is awesome.
The Frame Pro has plenty of built-in cloud gaming features beyond any consoles you connect locally. I tested Cyberpunk 2077 using the Steam app and also fired up Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II on the Xbox app with no issues. One slight glitch is that, when I connected my Xbox controller to the TV it worked fine, but then I had to pair it again to the Xbox Series X later. It gave me a reason to buy an extra controller. When I tried a Sony Dualsense Wireless Controller with Cyberpunk 2077, it worked flawlessly. Forza Horizon 5 on my Xbox looked ultra-smooth, showing a Ford Bronco sliding around in the mud in a realistic way.
The Frame Pro supports up to a 144-Hz refresh rate from either the Connect One box or a Micro HDMI port, which makes it awesome for really smooth gaming. I tested Crimson Desert on an Acer Nitro 60 gaming desktop, and the colors, scenery, and overall clarity over the higher refresh rate looked stunning. If you have a stylish living room where you also want to game, this isn’t a bad choice.
During a chaotic battle, with snowy mountains off in the distance, I felt like I had jumped into one of the paintings. In the end, The Frame Pro is a fantastic TV for art—and just about everything else, as long as you don’t want the best backlighting around.
