Our take on the Samsung QN43LS03AAF 43 Frame QLED 4K Smart TV
The Samsung The Frame QN43LS03AA is a 43-inch 4K QLED smart TV built to look like framed art on the wall. Its matte, anti-glare display and Art Mode show paintings and photos when you are not watching, and the slim frame sits close to the wall on a no-gap mount. It runs Tizen with Netflix and the major apps, has a built-in tuner, and connects over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HDMI, USB and optical. It suits design-minded buyers and small rooms; against cheaper 43-inch 4K sets you pay for the art styling and matte screen rather than deeper blacks, since it uses edge-lit QLED rather than mini-LED or OLED.
- Matte, anti-glare screen
- Art Mode with a large art store
- Slim frame with no-gap wall mount
- 4K QLED picture with wide viewing angles
- Tizen smart platform with all major apps

Questions and answers
- What is Art Mode and do I need a subscription?
- Art Mode displays paintings and photos when the TV is idle. A basic set of images is included; the full art store is a separate subscription.
- Does it come with a wall mount?
- Yes, it includes a slim no-gap wall mount designed to sit the TV flush against the wall.
- Is the screen good for bright rooms?
- The matte, anti-glare coating handles reflections well, but peak brightness is modest, so very bright rooms can wash out HDR.
- How many HDMI ports does it have?
- It has three HDMI inputs, plus USB, optical audio and a built-in tuner.
- Can I change the frame color?
- The TV ships with a black frame; Samsung sells optional magnetic bezels in other finishes.
- Is it good for gaming?
- It supports 4K gaming with low input lag in Game Mode, but it lacks the high refresh rates of Samsung's gaming-focused sets.
