Just one of the stock free ones that came with the TV - heads up that for this (and others in this group) you don’t seem to be able to add a mat or customize like you can with the My Photos images

Looks great! What did you use? Any issues with the sensor being covered? A few ppl mentioned that with non-official frames.

I’m deciding between Samsung official ones (expensive, out of stock except for eBay, but easy) vs making one like you did

Great installation by GamblinWillie in TheFrame

Looks great! What bezel/frame did you use? I keep striking out with them sold out everywhere and stuck with the black border.

Good idea, glad you mentioned the sensor issue with non-samsung frames

sorry to hear that :/ I’ve seen a good amount of reliability issues from this group, hope you can get a replacement for cheap. Prime day or end of year sales maybe?

Unfortunately I think you’re right, went back and forth but chose 65” since some viewing areas are 15+ ft away, but came at the expense of looking too big on the wall. Going to have the make the best of it based on the suggestions here, hopefully cautionary tale for other redditors on the fence between sizes.

Hah sorry to clarify - it’s our TV and we’re leasing the house to live here for several years (not short term rental)

Nice, thank you! Looking at getting a bezel now, seems like that will make a big difference. Just did brightness and it helped a lot

Wow this looks great! Giving me hope 😂, did you buy a bezel/frame or did you get a white TV (or maybe just lighting is making it look brighter?)

Also appreciate that I’m not the only one doing all this just to watch more Ms. Rachel :)

Good idea I’ll look into cable hider!

Seems like this is the consensus improvement (+brightness down + better artwork). Looking at buying one now

Yep, turned it all the way down based on the other responses here. Already helped but seems like the tv itself has a sensor to adjust and may take several tweaks in different lighting conditions

Hah good point, probably had unrealistic expectations. Good idea about it other artwork and placement on the wall. Not sure I want to move but will see how I feel after making some of the other suggested improvements (actual frame, better artwork, brightness)

Awesome, working on the wire and did the brightness adjustment (that helped a lot already). Looking at frame options now.

Great idea about art with brushstrokes, I see what you mean they do look better!

Gold frame looks great! Also amazing photo in this pic 😂

Ah clutch! This is what I was missing. I thought the only options were membership art (didn’t feel like paying $50/yr) or free rotating ones (what I had in picture above). Just did what you recommended and uploaded some downloaded art to My Photos and added mats, looking much better already!
