Depending on the sort of room you have, you might find yourself craving different types of TVs.
There’s the standard TV variety everyone knows and probably has a variation of in the living room, and it comes in a variety of technologies, be it OLED, QLED, LED backlit, Mini-LED, Micro-RGB, or just some version of LCD without the premium tech inside. And then there are the other TV types that don’t conform to a standard screen on a stand style.
We’re talking instead about a screen in a frame or a screen from a small projector thrown at close proximity. It might even be a big screen made up of lots of smaller LED panels, something you might find if you happen to have a very large amount of money lying around.
You might even consider a see-through screen. They exist, too.
There are a few variations on less-than-standard screen types, and lately one variety rearing its head is about a screen you can move with you from room to room. LG kicked off the category with the “Stanbyme”, a play on words because the TV was literally a screen on a stand, with a variation that evolved the concept into something that pops out of a briefcase. The latest version even pops off, and can become something for the wall.
Not keen to let LG have all the fun, Samsung’s own lifestyle category is popping out with its own take on something connected to a stand, as well, arriving in the “Movingstyle” screen. Yes, that’s the real name.
Movingstyle is another take in Samsung’s lifestyle type of TVs, which includes The Freestyle portable projector, The Serif fashionable TV, and The Sero rotating TV, the latter of which feels like a TV built for the social media era.
Different again, The Movingstyle is a 27 inch touchscreen on a floorstand complete with wheels. Think of it as a larger take on a tablet, but one with Samsung’s Tizen-based smart TV operating system built in.
While it’s not automated, you can roll a Movingstyle screen around the home, or alternatively detach it and set it up on its small screen, basically making it a TV for any room, or even on the floor.
The screen supports HDR and Dolby atmos sound, plus a 120Hz refresh rate for sports, and even connects with Samsung soundbars in a room thanks to its inclusion of Samsung’s Q-Symphony technology. And much like the other Samsung TVs launching this year, it will work with the Samsung Art Store found on The Frame TVs.
Priced at $1999, The Movingstyle is a take on TV tech not everyone will go for, particularly if they already have a tablet that can do this sort of thing, though it might just grab people looking for something where size is more important.
If that last part is true for you, Samsung’s more well known take on a lifestle TV, the art-based The Frame TV, also now has a massive 98 inch variation built to look just like a piece of art on the wall that also happens to be a TV.
Granted, you’ll need $6999 if you want to get a digital art frame-TV hybrid that big, but if you do, you’ll find in stores across Australia and online from Samsung alongside the Movingstyle TV.
