TV in Disguise: Hisense releases CanvasTV starting at $1,000
If you want a TV that can blend into your interior, hang on the wall and masquerade as art rather than a TV, Hisense has a new option. The company is launching its Canvas TV — made to look like a painting when not in use — starting at $1,000.
CanvasTV will offer a slightly cheaper alternative to Samsung framewhich is the first of its kind to offer a unique An alternative to television as art for the design-conscious buyer. Samsung’s highly aesthetic TV is relatively expensive, however, with the 55-inch 2024 Frame costing $1,500. Hisense’s CanvasTV comes in at $1,000 for the 55-inch model and $1,300 for the 65-inch version.
CanvasTV’s “Art Mode” will offer a range of background options in different styles. The TV will also include a built-in sensor that turns off this mode when it detects that no one is in the room to save energy.
Between the two, Samsung’s The Frame offers a wider range of sizes, from 43- to 85-inch offerings. The Canvas TV will only be available in 55- and 65-inch sizes at launch.
Other features of CanvasTV include:
-
GoogleTV
-
144 Hz refresh rate
-
Anti-reflective, matte screen
Hisense’s CanvasTV will be available in late summer 2024.
