Can Samsung Frame TV Be Mounted Vertically like a painting?
Yes! The Samsung The Frame TV can be mounted vertically though this varies by model year. Let's dive into this topic a bit deeper.
Samsung started to phase in "vertical art" quietly in 2020 with the release of their first 32" Frame TV, then in 2021 they added 43" TV support and in 2022 they really expanded it to most of the rest of the lineup.
How Vertical Art Mode Works
When the TV is in Art Mode a piece of vertically oriented art is automatically detected based on the pixel dimensions of the piece of art so it can know if the art is natively vertical or not.
Example: An image with dimensions 3840 x 2160 is a horizontal image, but if you have an image with resolution 2160 x 3180 then the TV know's that's a VERTICAL piece of art and therefore will display it vertically full screen.
Mobile Streaming Vertical Content to Samsung Frame
If if you want to stream video from your phone to your TV and have it fill the screen, then this can easily be accomplished when the TV is vertical using the new vertical streaming mode.
FAQ: What happens to my art or TV's video picture if the TV is mounted vertically?
In this instance, the TV would just show the video or piece of art horizontally while the TV is hung vertically.
