Reviewer score 57% (normalized by Neofiliac)The Frame 2020 is a good TV for most uses. It delivers good picture quality for most content, and it provides an excellent gaming experience thanks to its low input lag and VRR support. Its VA panel has a high native contrast ratio, which is great for watching in dark rooms. Unfortunately, it doesn't have local dimming, and its poor viewing angles make it less suitable for wide seating arrangements.
Pros
- High native contrast ratio
- Great peak brightness
- Low input lag
- Excellent black uniformity
Cons
- Poor viewing angles
- Mediocre peak brightness and low response time

Reviewer score 76% (normalized by Neofiliac)The Frame uses a rectangular replaceable bezel that juts out slightly beyond the 60Hz, 10-bit, 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) LCD panel. The back is completely flat, with a recess where the included, shallow-profile wall mount is attached. Connectivity includes four HDMI ports, two USB ports, ethernet, coaxial (for a TV antenna), digital optical (Toslink) audio output, and a 3.5mm RS232C jack for integration.
Pros
- Excellent viewing angles and screen conformity
- Very good color accuracy
- Excellent Smart Hub user interface
Cons
- Not as good as Android TV
- No HDR10 support

Reviewer score 75% (normalized by Neofiliac), and you will need to upgrade to a paid monthly subscription to get a wider variety of paintings and the like – but there's plenty of other background fodder to use without paying a penny. Art Mode uses around 30% of the power that streaming a movie on Netflix would, meaning it's not as eco-friendly as simply turning the TV off. Ambient Mode is also well worth a look, utilizing – you guessed it – ‘ambient' animations and customizable color gradients.
Pros
- Sleek design
- Excellent upscaling
- Good value for money
Cons
- Dolby Atmos isn’t as good as some
- No Dolby Vision or HDR10+
