When Samsung first released the Frame TV, I thought it was a mere novelty—a TV that doubles as a picture frame when not in use seemed to have niche appeal—the last thing I expected was for competitors to copy the idea. Yet TCL’s Nxtvision TV was unveiled in August, and you can already find the 55-inch version for 40% off. Originally called the Nxtframe, TCL rebranded the name to Nxtvision. Most sizes are seeing big discounts right now, including the previously mentioned 55-inch class, currently going for $595.99 (down from $999.99), and the 85-inch class, currently $1,399.96 (originally $1,997.99). Both discounts mark the lowest prices those sizes have reached, according to price-tracking tools.

Like the Frame, the Nxtvision is a QLED 4K display with an anti-glare reflective screen and artistic outer bezels that give it that distinctive “frame” look. Unlike the Frame, the Nxtvision supports Dolby Vision on top of HDR10+, providing compatibility with a broader range of HDR content. It offers a 120 Hz refresh rate with a 144Hz Variable Refresh Rate (VRR).
The TV is slim, measuring 1.1 inches deep, and comes with a flush wall mount, a free bezel set (light wood color, as seen in the product picture from Amazon), and a pre-loaded art library. Unlike Samsung’s own Tizen OS, the Nxtvision is loaded with Google TV, which I personally like better. You can read more details about this TV in PCMag’s review.
One key difference to note between the Frame and Nxtvision is that the Frame uses an external One Connect Box to hook up things like a gaming console to keep the clean frame look. The Nxtvision has all its input and output ports on the TV’s back, which means you’ll need to conceal your wires in the wall if you want that slick look. Still, the savings over the Frame will give you some cash to work with if you need to call in a handyman to get the Nxtvision set looking good.
