Samsung’s art-inspired Frame TV has been a runaway hit over the last several years — so much so that everyone from Amazon to Hisense has begun cribbing some of its more popular features for their latest sets. It came as no surprise, then, that Samsung announced a speaker version during CES 2024. Enter the Samsung Music Frame, which is on sale at Amazon for $374.99 ($25 off) when you clip the on-page coupon.

Samsung’s sizable, 12.9 x 12.9 picture frame is more akin to the Ikea Symfonisk frame speaker than anything else, only it’s considerably smaller and allows for a lot more customization than the popular Sonos / Ikea collab. You can insert your own photographs or artwork using the included mounting panel, for one, and Samsung will reportedly offer additional bezel options and custom-printed panels later this year. Inside, you’ll find two woofers, two tweeters, two midrange drivers, and a waveguide, which allows the mountable Frame to better disperse sound. It also packs support for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, along with Dolby Atmos music, though keep in mind that it doesn’t offer dedicated up-firing drivers like the Sonos Era 300 and some of the more premium soundbars out there.

Overall, it’s squarely aimed at the more aesthetically minded listener who wants their sound system to blend in rather than stand out. Now, if only there was something you could do about the power cable...

• LG’s take-anywhere StanbyMe TV is on sale for around $896.99 ($103 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H Photo, which matches one of the lowest prices we’ve seen on the unique set. The 27-inch smart TV packs a ho-hum 1080p 60Hz IPS panel, however, the real draw is that the battery-powered touchscreen is mounted on a surprisingly elegant stand, which allows you to easily wheel the TV to whichever room you feel is best for binging X-Men ‘97.

• If you were hoping to pick up a portable Bluetooth speaker before summer truly kicks off, UE’s two-tone Wonderboom 3 is down to around $68.59 ($31 off) at Amazon and Best Buy. I’ve long been a fan of the entry-level Wonderboom series, namely because they’re good-sounding speakers that carry an IP67 rating for water, dirt, and dust resistance. The latest model is a pretty modest upgrade, though it does offer a larger Bluetooth range and slightly better battery life (14 hours vs. 13 hours) for extended playback.
• Walmart’s Google-powered streaming box and smart speaker combo certainly looks promising, but if you’re looking to save a few bucks, you can nab a Roku Streaming Stick 4K at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart right now for an all-time low of $34 ($15 off). Roku’s HDMI stick remains one the most straightforward options out there, yet it still supports all the major 4K HDR standards, plenty of streaming apps, and AirPlay 2. Read our review.
