Potential to be Great!

Samsung’s latest innovation is the 2024 Samsung Music Frame. Samsung has always set the president with creating innovative products, and this one is no different. After unboxing the Music Frame, the first thing I noticed was the overall heft of the device. The first thing I did was connect the device to SmartThings which took several minutes to complete. Once completed and accepting several terms and conditions I was able to cast music to the Music Frame. The sound that’s projected out of the Music Frame surprised me. Just looking at the device you would not think there is 6 speakers in such a small package. Music filled my medium sized room with ease. I let my wife listen, and she was in awe that the Music Frame was able to produce such a room filling sound.
Some key features I like are:
Q-Symphony
Spotify Connect
Chromecast
Wireless Dolby Atmos
Airplay
One thing I think Samsung needs to address is Q-Symphony with Music Frame only works with 2024 Samsung TVs or a 2024 Soundbar. I was to test older Samsung televisions and I was able to select the WIFI option to play sound to the Music Frame as well. I confirmed Q-Symphony did not work on my 2019 Samsung.
This means you are forced to upgrade to get the full effects of Q-Symphony. The second major factor as of writing this review is you are only allowed 2 devices to be setup using Q-Symphony. Meaning if you have two Music Frames you are fine, however if you have 2 Music Frames and a Samsung soundbar, you won’t be able to use the feature on all 3 devices, only two.
This first iteration really has potential, but I think Samsung will need to consider enabling features on current models instead of forcing consumers to upgrade to nest year’s models. This trend cannot continue if Samsung wants to gain consumer’s trust. The Music Frame has a good feature set, but really hindered by crippled software that won’t allow more devices to make this a viable solution to add to the home theater setup. The music sounds crisp and has a decent amount of bass. Good product that has the potential to be great when those items are addressed above.
