Everyone
may
like
watching
movies
on
a
big
screen,
but
a
hulking
panel
is
nothing
but
an
eyesore
when
turned
off.
That’s
why
Samsung’s
Frame
TV
has
become
so
popular
over
the
last
several
years
and
why
several
TV
manufacturers,
including
Amazon,
have
begun
to
crib
ideas
from
the
company’s
artsy
panels.
And
while
the
Frame
certainly
isn’t
cheap,
you
can
currently
pick
up
the
2022
model
at
Amazon
in
the
55-
and
65-inch
sizing
for
$997.99
($500
off)
and
1,597.99
($400),
respectively.
It’s
also
on
sale
in
the
behemoth
75-inch
configuration
for
$1,895
($1,103
off),
an
all-time
low,
with
Best
Buy
and
Walmart
matching
Amazon’s
pricing
in
most
instances.
Despite
its
lofty
price
tag,
the
Frame
isn’t
for
people
who
want
pristine
image
quality
or
cutting-edge
gaming
specs,
even
if
it
does
offer
a
120Hz
refresh
rate
and
HDMI
2.1
support.
The
4K
QLED
TV
was
designed
with
aesthetics
in
mind,
and
as
such,
its
biggest
asset
is
that
it
sports
an
exceptional
anti-glare
matte
screen,
customizable
bezels
(including
wood
options),
and
a
standby
mode
that
showcases
artwork
from
around
the
world
when
idle.
Samsung
even
recently
expanded
the
art
selection
with
pieces
from
the
Met,
though,
as
is
the
case
with
everything
in
Samsung’s
Art
Store,
you’ll
need
to
pay
for
a
subscription
($4.99
a
month
or
$49.90
annually)
to
take
advantage
of
the
TV’s
suite
of
art-centric
features.
It’s
hard
to
knock
JBL
for
not
wanting
to
tweak
a
winning
formula
—
something
it
has
effectively
achieved
with
its
lineup
of
Flip
Bluetooth
speakers
over
the
past
decade.
The
JBL
Flip
6,
like
the
Flip
5,
continues
to
offer
a
lot
of
bang
for
your
buck,
especially
now
that
it’s
on
sale
at
Amazon,
Walmart,
and
Best
Buy
for
$99.95
($30
off).
We’ve
long
considered
the
JBL
Charge
5
to
be
one
of
the
best
Bluetooth
speakers
you
can
buy;
however,
not
everyone
needs
booming
sound
and
the
unique
ability
to
recharge
external
devices
on
the
go.
The
Flip
6
features
a
smaller
and
more
travel-friendly
design,
with
a
cylindrical
build
that
can
rest
either
vertically
or
horizontally.
It’s
still
a
mono
speaker,
but
its
two-way
driver
and
dual
passive
radiators
produce
well-balanced
audio,
not
to
mention
a
surprising
amount
of
bass.
(You
can
also
pair
two
Flip
speakers
together
in
stereo
mode
using
the
JBL
app.)
As
for
other
specs,
JBL’s
latest
portable
speaker
offers
a
decent
12
hours
of
continuous
playback
and
an
IP67
rating
for
dust
and
water
resistance.
The
only
real
downside
to
me,
other
than
the
fact
it
lacks
speakerphone
capabilities,
is
that
it
still
sports
a
massive
JBL
logo
on
the
front.
Then
again,
JBL
has
never
really
been
one
for
subtlety.
JBL’s
Flip
6
is
a
small
portable
Bluetooth
speaker
that
offers
a
rugged,
IP67-rated
exterior
and
up
to
12
hours
of
battery
life.
It
can
also
be
paired
in
stereo
mode
with
other
JBL-compatible
speakers.
