2025 can be considered a breakthrough year in the world of lifestyle televisions, as for the first time in this category, we have a model featuring Mini-LED backlighting. The model we tested, the Samsung The Frame Pro (LS03FW), is meant to cater to more discerning viewers who previously opted for the classic The Frame for its appearance and Gallery Mode but always had to compromise on image quality. The Frame Pro aims to change this balance of power – maintaining the distinctive, design-focused aesthetic while delivering visuals at a significantly higher level. Adding a few innovations, such as the odourless One Connect module, makes it really intriguing. Has Samsung managed to create a television that finally doesn’t force a choice between style and quality? Let’s find out in our review.
SAMSUNG The Frame PRO - Our verdict
7.3
Overall rating
Samsung The Frame Pro 2025 is a television that brings a breath of fresh air to the lifestyle model segment. The design is, of course, the main highlight – a symmetrical frame, the possibility of easily changing decorative frames, and above all, the wall image effect thanks to the matte finish and special mount. In everyday use, it makes a great impression, and the Art Store feature combined with the high screen brightness means that the television performs well not only as a display for films and series but also as an element of interior decor. It's also hard not to appreciate the gadgety addition of the wireless One Connect module – the ability to hide the box with ports anywhere in the living room provides significant arrangement flexibility. In terms of image quality, The Frame Pro holds its own quite well. A brightness level of up to 900 nits in peak scenes allows for enjoying HDR effects even in brightly lit rooms, and the VA panel ensures stable yet solid contrast. However, there are quite a few question marks. First and foremost – the naming. The designation "Pro" and the addition of Mini-LED suggest that we are dealing with an advanced local dimming system. Meanwhile, in the 65-inch variant, we counted only 24 zones, all located at the bottom edge of the screen. You probably already know the effect after reading this review. The blacks and contrast are decent, but they are far from what the Mini-LED televisions with full, dense backlighting of the panel offer. The wireless module also raises mixed feelings. While it works fairly well for connecting an amplifier or decoder, gamers and PC users will quickly find that direct connection to the television via MICRO-HDMI is essential. Otherwise, they must reckon with high input lag and poorer font readability. Therefore, it's hard to call The Frame Pro "Pro" in a strictly technological sense – it would be more accurate to say it's "Frame Plus." A fantastic lifestyle television, polished and visually impressive, that would fit perfectly in a bright, modern living room, but at the same time, it doesn't quite meet the level of quality one might expect from a product labelled as Mini-LED. It's a device that will delight with its design and additional features but will leave a slight sense of disappointment for those who were expecting a true breakthrough in image quality.

One could say that The Frame Pro is not significantly different from the classic The Frame. We still have the characteristic symmetrical black frame typical of this series. It can be replaced with accessory frames that Samsung sells separately – often appearing in promotions for a symbolic amount, which further encourages personalisation. The package also includes classic feet with adjustable height, though it is hard to expect that many users will actually make use of them. The idea of The Frame is based on the concept of the television hanging on the wall and imitating a painting. Samsung has taken care of the appropriate accessories – in the box, we receive a special mount that allows the screen to be hung flat, almost flush with the wall. The design of the back panel has been crafted in such a way that everything is flush, and when the Art Store mode is activated, the television really does resemble a hanging work of art.
What sets The Frame Pro apart from both its competitors and its non-Pro counterpart is the new, wireless module Wiralles One Connect Box. Thanks to it, all the cables are connected not to the television, but to a separate box that can be positioned anywhere in the room – within about 10 metres. To the TV itself, we simply connect the power cable, which can be easily hidden in the wall. This solution not only simplifies installation but also helps maintain aesthetic cleanliness – without dangling cables and the need to install additional shelves beneath the screen. All these elements make The Frame Pro present itself as a truly premium device, and it's hard to deny this.

Visibility of details in the lights:
Samsung The Frame Pro has officially been marked as a Mini-LED backlit television, but… is that really the case? In the 65-inch variant we tested, we counted only 24 dimming zones. The number itself seems rather modest, but what's more important is their distribution – they are all located along the bottom edge of the screen. In practice, this means that The Frame Pro should be treated more as edge-lit rather than a fully-fledged Mini-LED with dense, direct local dimming. Samsung has used a similar tactic before, rebranding the Q70 series into Neo QLED televisions – mainly for marketing purposes. How does this translate to the picture? Black levels and contrast appear to be acceptable, but there are none of the effects known from televisions with advanced local dimming, such as in the QN80 series. A large part of this is due to the high-gamut VA panel, which inherently provides solid parameters – a contrast level of around 5000:1 looks good and, importantly, is stable, without significant fluctuations. However, if someone buys The Frame Pro hoping to experience a “true Mini-LED”, they may feel disappointed. We ourselves expected this model to significantly differentiate itself from the classic The Frame series in terms of contrast quality, yet the differences turned out to be smaller or virtually non-existent than one might suggest by the “Pro” designation.

Samsung The Frame Pro is one of the relatively bright televisions. In synthetic tests, we managed to achieve values around 900 nits, which is quite a respectable result for a lifestyle model. In full-screen scenes, such as the board from the film The Meg or the initial sequence in Life of Pi, brightness maintained a level of 700–800 nits. These values allow you to fully enjoy the HDR effects and convey their cinematic magic. However, the situation becomes complicated when smaller, point light sources appear on the screen. The edge lighting used here, equipped with the ability to locally dim entire strips, does not manage these well. Sometimes, small elements are overly dimmed, which weakens the effect, or conversely – they are significantly brightened, but at the cost of losing the depth of black in that part of the image. This can be compared to light beams reminiscent of a laser beam spreading in dense fog – the effect is noticeable and bright, yet at the same time, it is quite unnatural and distracting. Fortunately, the colour aspect performs better. Thanks to the use of a quantum dot filter (QLED), colours are saturated, and the reproduction of the DCI-P3 palette exceeds 92%. Generally, films or series watched in HDR on The Frame Pro showcase a rich colour palette, even if contrast and the functioning of the dimming algorithms can sometimes distract us.
Scene from the movie “Pan” (about 2800 nits)
Scene from the movie “Billy Lynn” (about 1100 nits)
Although The Frame Pro uses edge-lit backlighting, the film viewing experience can be considered truly satisfying. Even in more challenging scenes, the picture held its quality, and during screenings of films like Mr and Billy Lynn, the full-screen, bright shots appeared convincing. Details in the brightest segments were clearly visible, and one could genuinely feel the cinematic magic of HDR. However, we suspect that if Samsung had actually opted for full-fledged Mini-LED backlighting, the effect would have been even better.

HDR luminance
The Frame Pro is a television bright enough to accurately reproduce details in whites, but that does not mean that dynamic metadata does not contribute anything to the image. On the contrary – in tests, the difference between classic HDR10 and dynamic HDR10+ was clearly visible. Samsung's proprietary format can significantly enhance the perception of scenes, adding depth, detail, and naturalness. The same material appeared more mature, and viewing became simply more enjoyable. It is pleasing that HDR10+ is increasingly appearing on streaming services and gaining popularity. Dolby Vision still dominates on a global scale, but there is no longer any reason to fear that productions in HDR10+ will be hard to find, which benefits ChooseTV Pro.

Factory color reproduction
5.5/10
We achieved the best results, of course, in Filmmaker mode, which immediately showed that Samsung had put effort into the factory settings. In SDR content – the type most commonly viewed – The Frame Pro performed really well. The white balance and gamma were almost perfectly matched, giving the image a natural and cohesive appearance. Admittedly, there were some noticeable errors, particularly in skin tones and reds, which could be overly saturated, giving everything a slightly "warmed-up" character, but this didn’t significantly detract from the viewing experience in everyday use. For HDR content, the situation was similar regarding the white balance. This was at a good level; however, the biggest issue turned out to be brightness management. The EOTF curve was set in such a way that in many scenes, the image appeared blown out, with the brightest areas losing detail and turning into uniform patches of light. This severely undermined realism and caused the colours to appear overly sharpened. Fortunately, Samsung provides the option for manual adjustment of the curve in their televisions, so we opted for calibration, and its results can be seen below.
Color reproduction after calibration
8.5/10
After calibration, the SDR mode looks absolutely perfect. We managed to eliminate the overly strong red saturation, which previously gave the image a somewhat excessively warm character. Colours have become more balanced, which resulted in a natural and pleasant reception of everyday content – from television to films and series from streaming or materials on YouTube. In HDR mode, the most work was required on the EOTF curve, which factory settings caused excessive brightening of the entire image. Calibration allowed us to largely "tame" this problem – the image stopped being overexposed, and details in bright areas became more visible. Of course, the limitations are set by the design of the television itself, as edge lighting reveals its constraints, and the smallest elements of light can still be overblown or blend into the background. However, this is a matter of technology, not just calibration. After the correction, The Frame Pro is significantly more enjoyable to watch, and it is certainly worth considering if you want to maximise the television's capabilities.
SAMSUNG The Frame PRO - Smoothness of tonal transitions
9.5/10
Here Samsung really deserves huge applause. The Frame Pro has turned out to be one of the best televisions of this year when it comes to the smoothness of tonal transitions. During tests, we were practically unable to notice any clear issues with colour blending – the gradients looked smooth and natural, and the typical "banding" that many televisions present simply did not appear. Indeed, in very dark scenes, one can notice minimal imperfections, but you really have to squint to see them – even the trained eye of our editorial team had difficulty with this. Therefore, in everyday viewing, there is no chance that anything will disrupt your experience. This is a major plus, as it is in darker scenes that televisions most often struggle. You won't experience that here.
Image scaling and smoothness of tonal transitions
7.5/10
Smooth transition function
Image without overscan on the SD signal
Although the fluidity of tonal transitions in 4K HDR materials on The Frame Pro is not a problem at all, naturally, with a weaker signal - television, HD materials, or older Full HD films - imperfections may arise. Therefore, it is crucial how the television copes with these limitations thanks to its image processor. The noise reduction function works really effectively here. At the medium setting, it eliminates unwanted bands or artefacts, smoothing the image in a noticeable yet not excessive way. However, it's worth noting that Samsung tends to be aggressive in its approach - even at the lowest level of this function, it can "consume" film grain. So it's advisable to use it judiciously and adjust the settings to the material being viewed.
The upscaling itself is at a high level. The Frame Pro can effectively enhance older materials to a native 4K resolution while maintaining good sharpness and readability. Films and series in lower quality simply look better here. However, it should be mentioned that there is a minor drawback - typical for many Samsung televisions. With very old sources of poor quality, you may notice clipping of the image edges on the left side of the screen. It's not a problem that will ruin the viewing experience, but it's worth knowing that it might occur.

The smoothness of motion in The Frame Pro is not only due to the matrix, which operates with a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz, but also the image processor and the smoothing system. It is thanks to this that we can adjust the way films or sports broadcasts are displayed to our own preferences. There are sliders for reducing blurring and reducing judder – the first function improves the sharpness of fast movements, while the second helps to soften the effect of a "jumping" image during camera pans. So, everyone can choose between a cinematic motion character and a smoother, more "television" style.

The motion blur performance turned out to be better than one might expect from a VA panel, which is usually not the strongest point in this category. During testing, The Frame Pro performed very well - the image remained sharp, and most motion sequences looked natural and without major complaints. Only in really challenging scenes, with a fast-moving object against a dark background, could slight traces of motion blur be observed, but they were not clear enough to spoil the viewing experience. Overall, in daily use, the television presents itself quite solidly in this category.

Samsung The Frame Pro does not pretend to be just a “living room” television; here, gamers will also find something for themselves. The manufacturer has ensured a full range of gaming features: we have support for variable refresh rate (VRR), automatic low latency mode (ALLM), refresh rates up to 144 Hz, and compatibility with both G-Sync and FreeSync Premium Pro. Additionally, there is the well-known Game Bar panel, which is a quick menu where key parameters can be checked on the fly—from refresh rates to enabled image processing modes. Are there any downsides? Indeed, The Frame Pro does not support Dolby Vision in game mode, but this is hard to consider a serious issue—most gamers use HDR10 anyway... which means HGIG mode. Exactly. The biggest surprise turned out to be the latest software update. Samsung… completely removed this option from The Frame PRO. In practice, this means that the television independently interprets HDR tone mapping in games, and the user has no way to enable settings developed for consoles. This is a step backwards that may disappoint more knowledgeable gamers hoping for full compliance with HGiG guidelines. We can only hope that this issue will be resolved quickly.
An interesting feature of The Frame Pro is also the unusual arrangement of HDMI 2.1 ports. There are as many as five available—four are located in the One Connect box, and the fifth, in micro HDMI version, is directly on the television. This is quite an unusual solution, but rather practical. Samsung clearly suggests that this is the port to which you should connect your console or computer. Why? Because it minimises potential delays associated with communication through the wireless One Connect, and in the case of gaming, every millisecond matters. We have written separately about input lag, but it can already be revealed here that by connecting equipment directly to the television, we achieve the absolute maximum in response speed.
SAMSUNG The Frame PRO - Input lag
9.9/10
The Frame Pro in wired mode records truly excellent results. Latencies range from 9 to 14 ms, providing smooth and immediate response in games. These are values that can easily be considered reference – even in dynamic titles, the action proceeds without delays, and the controls are precise and predictable. The situation changes when the wireless One Connect module comes into play. While it allows you to hide cables and enjoy greater freedom of arrangement in the room, it significantly worsens the input lag results. In tests conducted at a distance of 2–3 meters from the television, with no furniture obstructing the path, the values jumped to 50 ms. While this is acceptable when watching films because input lag does not concern us at all, it becomes problematic in games and severely detracts from the experience. It’s a bit of a paradox – on one hand, we have a television that in wired mode offers some of the best results on the market, while on the other, Samsung promotes a solution that proves to be quite detrimental for gamers. After all, the console is one of the key devices we usually connect to the television...

Connecting The Frame Pro to a computer via cable is basically no philosophy - it works as it should. The image is clear, the fonts look good, you can comfortably manage daily tasks in Word or Excel, and then launch a game, and it’s still fine. However, the real fun begins when we use the wireless module. And here the whole paradox of this television emerges again - a solution that was supposed to make life easier in theory can actually complicate it quite a bit in practice. It’s not just about the aforementioned delays that can be immediately felt when using the mouse, but also about the overall readability of the image. The fonts start to look simply worse, at times you can see what seem like slight stripes, and the letters lose their sharpness, making text work quite exhausting. And it’s really strange that such a simple thing as displaying letters on the screen can fall apart here due to the wireless module. Therefore, if someone plans to use The Frame Pro with a computer - whether for work or gaming - it’s really worth connecting it via cable from the start. Otherwise, you can quickly become frustrated and instead of enjoying a large screen, you’ll feel like your eyes are fighting with the television for every paragraph of text.
SAMSUNG The Frame PRO - Viewing angles
3.1/10
Brightness drop at an angle of 45 degrees: 73%
The Frame Pro features a VA panel, which immediately means that viewing angles are not its strong point. Just sitting a bit to the side reveals how the screen starts to lose quality – brightness drops, colours fade, and blacks, which look solid from a central perspective, suddenly resemble more of a dark grey velvet than deep tar. This is most noticeable at around a 40–45 degree angle – there, the image clearly brightens, and colour saturation decreases significantly. Overall, this is nothing new, as most LCD televisions with VA panels behave this way. At the cost of better blacks compared to IPS panels, we get worse viewing angles.
SAMSUNG The Frame PRO - Daytime performance
7/10
Panel finish: Matte
Reflection suppression: Very Good
Black levels during daytime: Good
The Frame series has been distinguished by its matte screen coating for several years, and The Frame Pro from 2025 is no exception. It is thanks to this that you can rest assured that light reflections will not irritate you even in a brightly lit living room. Samsung has refined this technology to near perfection over the years, and today it can confidently be said that it is the best matte screen available in televisions. The colours still look good and do not drastically lose saturation, as is the case with cheaper, Chinese designs. The blacks also remain at a decent level, although it must be admitted that in extremely bright lighting conditions, the colours can slightly flatten and lose depth. However, this is a small price to pay for the complete lack of reflections on the screen – and this can be priceless in everyday use. The brightness must also be noted as a plus – around 600 nits in SDR mode ensures that the image cuts through daylight effortlessly and will look satisfactory in most rooms.

Smart Features
Samsung The Frame Pro runs on the Tizen operating system, which has long been a hallmark of the Korean manufacturer. It is one of the most refined smart TV environments – fast, stable, and intuitive. Practically all popular streaming applications are available here, and the interface operates smoothly with minimal delays. It also supports features such as AirPlay 2, screen mirroring, and the ability to control the television using voice commands via Bixby, Alexa, or Google Assistant.
Television Functions
As for classic television functions – as is the case with almost every Samsung – this is not the device's strongest suit. We receive a clear EPG guide, teletext support, the ability to connect headphones via Bluetooth, and that’s about it. More advanced tools known from televisions (e.g. recording to USB or PiP) are not to be found here. However, this is standard in Samsung's offering. The manufacturer has been setting trends for several years and focuses mainly on smart features, while traditional television is treated somewhat neglectfully.
Art Store and Interchangeable Frames – a Unique Element of the Series
What has distinguished the The Frame series from the very beginning of its existence is the Art Mode and the Art Store application. Thanks to it, we can display reproductions of artworks on the screen, from classics to modern graphics. The service is indeed paid (in the form of a subscription or a one-off annual fee), but it ensures that the materials are prepared in the highest quality, making the displayed images look almost like they were painted. This element, along with the option of exchanging the television's frames, makes The Frame Pro serve a dual purpose as a television as well as a design element in the interior.
Wireless One Connect Module
The second unique element of The Frame PRO is the One Connect wireless module, which houses all HDMI ports and other connections. Thanks to this, the television itself can hang on the wall almost like a real painting, while all the electronics and cables can be placed in a separate box set even a few meters away. The device is powered via USB-C and handles all of the television's "thinking" processes. While this solution has its limitations for gamers or those using PCs (delays, deterioration of font quality), it works excellently for connecting an amplifier, decoder, or individual multimedia devices. It is a very "gadgety" solution, but in everyday use, it proves to be simply convenient and allows for better space arrangement in the living room.

The Frame Pro handles multimedia playback from USB memory correctly. Most popular formats for films, music, or photos work without major issues and the television manages them efficiently. During testing, we noticed only one inconvenience – HEIC format files, which is a standard used by Apple, do not open even though the system sees them and displays them in the player. For those who frequently transfer photos from an iPhone, this might be a slight annoyance, but apart from that, the player performs its task well and it is hard to have any significant complaints about it.

The sound on the Frame Pro is not one of the television's strengths. The slim casing means there is virtually no bass, which makes it sound rather flat and average. On the other hand, the television plays loudly – it can easily fill a medium or even larger living room. Dialogues are clear, but when it comes to special effects or music, there is a lack of depth. This is definitely a piece of equipment for which it is worth purchasing a soundbar, preferably from the designer Samsung S series. Thanks to the decorative frames, it can be matched to the decor along with the Frame Pro.
