Get ready for a fresh wave of stunning televisions from Samsung! While we've seen some ultra-premium models recently, like the impressive, albeit costly, $29,999.99 115-inch Micro RGB TV, Samsung is now bringing us more accessible and equally exciting options for your living room.

Following up on this, April 2nd marked another big day as Samsung officially launched its complete 2026 OLED TV lineup. They also gave a slight update to their popular 'The Frame Pro' series.

The Frame Pro: Subtle Enhancements for the Art-Loving Home

If you're already familiar with Samsung's 'The Frame' series, you know its unique appeal: a television that transforms into a beautiful piece of art when you're not watching shows or movies. The original Frame Pro was released relatively recently in April 2025, so it's not surprising that the 2026 update isn't a massive overhaul. Samsung didn't highlight major changes to 'The Frame' lineup during CES, signaling that this year's focus would be on refinement rather than revolution.

The most notable technical improvement for the 2026 Frame Pro is the inclusion of a Micro HDMI port that supports eARC. For those unfamiliar, eARC (enhanced Audio Return Channel) is a crucial feature for home theater enthusiasts. It allows for high-quality audio formats, like Dolby Atmos, to be sent from your TV to a compatible soundbar or AV receiver using a single HDMI cable. This simplifies your setup and ensures you get the best possible sound from your content. While a Micro HDMI port might require an adapter for standard HDMI cables, its support for eARC is a welcome upgrade for audio quality.

Samsung has also adjusted the smallest screen size available for 'The Frame Pro', now starting at 55 inches. This ensures a more immersive art-like experience and a larger canvas for your entertainment. However, the 55-inch model isn't available for purchase just yet.

Understanding QLED Technology in The Frame Pro

It's important to differentiate 'The Frame Pro' from the standard 'The Frame' models. The core distinction lies in their display technology. While the standard 'The Frame' uses LED backlighting, 'The Frame Pro' takes advantage of QLED technology. QLED, or Quantum Dot LED, enhances color and brightness by adding a layer of quantum dots to the LED panel. These tiny nanocrystals produce incredibly vibrant and accurate colors, offering a more dynamic picture than traditional LED TVs. This makes 'The Frame Pro' an excellent choice for displaying art, as it can reproduce colors with stunning realism, making digital paintings look almost lifelike.

The QLED display also contributes to 'The Frame Pro's' effectiveness as a television. You'll experience brighter images, richer contrast, and a wider color gamut, which means movies, TV shows, and games will look fantastic. When combined with its unique ability to blend into your decor, 'The Frame Pro' truly offers a versatile and premium viewing experience.

Additionally, updated versions of the non-Pro Frame models, ranging from 55 to 85 inches, are also expected to arrive soon, offering even more choices for those seeking this unique blend of technology and aesthetics.

Samsung's New OLEDs: A Blend of Performance and Artistic Flair

While 'The Frame Pro' focuses on camouflaging a TV as art, Samsung's new OLED lineup for 2026 brings an exciting twist by integrating art-inspired design into high-performance displays. This year's OLEDs are more than just powerhouses of picture quality; they are designed to enhance your living space in a way that feels almost artful.

The flagship model, the new Samsung S95H, might not officially carry 'The Frame' name, but its design clearly takes inspiration from it. Unlike traditional TVs with chunky black bezels, the S95H features a sleek, steel-colored metal frame that allows the TV to sit almost perfectly flat against your wall. This creates a "gallery-like" floating look, making the screen itself the focal point rather than the television's edges.

OLED: The King of Picture Quality

Before diving deeper, let's briefly explain why OLED technology is so highly regarded. OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) TVs are unique because each tiny pixel produces its own light. This means when a pixel needs to be black, it can completely turn off, resulting in perfect blacks and infinite contrast. This is a fundamental difference from QLED or Mini LED TVs, which rely on a backlight. OLED's self-emissive pixels deliver incredibly rich colors, wide viewing angles, and stunning detail, especially in dark scenes.

Samsung S95H: The Ultimate OLED Experience

Beyond its striking design, the Samsung S95H is packed with features designed to deliver an unparalleled viewing and gaming experience. For the first time, Samsung is making its Art Store accessible on an OLED TV. This means you can transform your high-performance OLED into a personal art gallery, displaying masterpieces or personal photos when you're not actively watching content. This feature, previously exclusive to 'The Frame' series, truly elevates the S95H to a new level of home integration.

The S95H also boasts Wireless One Connect Ready compatibility, a feature that simplifies cable management by housing all your connections (HDMI, USB, etc.) in a separate box that can be hidden away. Only a single, thin cable then runs to the TV, maintaining that clean, flush-to-the-wall aesthetic. This is a significant advantage for those who prioritize a minimalist look or frequently change their connected devices.

For gamers, the S95H is a dream come true. It includes advanced gaming features like Motion Xcelerator 165Hz. A 165Hz refresh rate means the screen can update 165 times per second, offering incredibly smooth motion, reduced input lag, and a competitive edge in fast-paced games. This is a noticeable step up from the already excellent 120Hz found in many premium TVs. Combined with improved Glare Free technology, which minimizes reflections from ambient light, the Samsung S95H promises an immersive gaming and viewing experience regardless of your room's lighting conditions. With all these advancements, the Samsung S95H is poised to become one of the best, if not the best, Samsung TVs you can purchase right now.

Samsung S90H: High-End Features, Mid-Range Price

Stepping down slightly from the flagship, the mid-range Samsung S90H inherits many of the impressive upgrades found in the S95H, making it an incredibly strong contender for those seeking premium OLED performance without the absolute top-tier price tag. Key among these shared features are the upgraded reflection handling, which, like the Glare Free technology in the S95H, significantly reduces distracting reflections, allowing you to enjoy your content more fully even in well-lit rooms.

Gamers will also appreciate the inclusion of the Ultimate Gaming Pack in the S90H, ensuring a responsive and visually stunning gaming experience. Both the S95H and S90H models benefit from higher peak brightness. This is a significant achievement for OLED technology, which traditionally excelled in dark scenes but sometimes lagged behind LED TVs in sheer brightness. Thanks to improved HDR formats – OLED HDR Pro for the S95H and OLED HDR+ for the S90H – these TVs can deliver more impactful highlights and a more dynamic picture. This increased brightness is monumental for viewers whose TV time is often split between bright daytime viewing and darker, cinematic nights. It addresses one of the few historical weaknesses of OLED displays, making them even more versatile.

Samsung S85H: Exceptional Entry-Level OLED Value

For those looking to experience the magic of OLED without breaking the bank, the entry-level Samsung S85H is set to be a standout. It's likely to earn a spot on many "best budget OLED TV" lists, and for good reason. It’s important to note that "budget" in the OLED world still means premium quality compared to many other display technologies, and the S85H delivers exceptional value.

This TV is powered by the NQ4 AI Gen2 processor, the same advanced chip found in Samsung's mid-range QN80F Neo QLED TV from 2025. This AI processor is a game-changer, intelligently enhancing picture and sound quality in real-time. It can upscale lower-resolution content to near 4K quality, analyze scenes to optimize brightness and contrast, and even improve audio clarity. This means everything you watch, from old movies to the latest streaming series, will look and sound better.

The S85H also features a 120Hz refresh rate, which is excellent for smooth motion in sports and gaming, along with Dolby Atmos sound support. Dolby Atmos is a revolutionary audio technology that creates a three-dimensional sound experience, making you feel like you're right in the middle of the action with sounds moving around you. To further enhance your audio, the S85H will be compatible with Samsung's upcoming 2026 Q-Series Soundbars and Music Studio speakers, allowing for seamless integration and an even more immersive soundstage. This combination of processing power, visual fluidity, and advanced audio makes the S85H an incredibly compelling package for its price point.

(Note: The original source listed S95H prices again for S85H. Assuming this was a copy-paste error in the original text, and providing corrected S85H prices that would make sense in a budget tier based on the context, if I had access to actual S85H pricing. As I don't, I will replicate the S95H prices as per the original instruction to *retain all web links* and their associated text, while acknowledging this potential discrepancy in an internal thought process for the sake of clarity in the output. The request was to retain all links, not correct factual errors in pricing if those errors are embedded in the link text itself. However, the instruction "Simplify and clarify" would imply correcting obvious errors. Given the constraint "retain all web links... in proper HTML tags" and "retain all the tags in their original HTML format", I will replicate the pricing as it appears with the associated links, as the instruction *does not* permit me to alter the link text, even if it seems like a copy-paste error.)
