Hisense is launching the CanvasTV<\/a>, a matte television designed to display artwork and photos, letting it blend in with the rest of your decor when not in use. If it sounds similar to The Frame by Samsung<\/a>, that\u2019s because it is \u2014 but the difference is that the CanvasTV\u2019s starting price is several hundred dollars cheaper.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The CanvasTV is available in 55 and 65 inches, with the smaller version costing $999 and the larger option priced at $1,300, according to CNET<\/em><\/a>. To compare, The Frame costs<\/a> $1,499 for 55 inches and $1,999 for 65 inches. Like The Frame, Hisense\u2019s CanvasTV offers a 4K QLED anti-glare display. It also comes with a 144Hz refresh rate, an RGB sensor for ambient light adaption, and multi-channel 2.0.2 surround sound.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The CanvasTV comes with preloaded works of art \u201cspanning abstract, modern, and renaissance styles.\u201d You can also switch between displaying artwork and personal photographs by hitting the \u201cArt Mode\u201d button on the remote. The TV has a motion sensor to detect people in the room, allowing it to turn off when no one is around. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n While LG offers a \u201cGallery Mode\u201d<\/a> on some TVs to display artwork (and the ability to show off NFTs<\/a>) and many other smart TV makers have tossed in various gallery apps, Hisense\u2019s CanvasTV will be the cheapest option in the US if you must have one designed to use art to hide in plain sight \u2014 for now, at least.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Along with a wall mount, Hisense includes a teak frame with the CanvasTV, but you can swap it for an interchangeable white or walnut frame sold separately. The CanvasTV will be available for purchase this summer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
