Huney'Z World: Television

Hi Huneybees,

LG Electronics has unveiled its latest home entertainment products: the 2024 LG StanbyME (27ART10CKPL) and LG StanbyME Speaker (XT7S). Building on the success of the original 2022 model, the new 27-inch LG StanbyME features dynamic wheels for enhanced mobility and seamlessly integrates with the new LG StanbyME Speaker for an upgraded home entertainment experience.

The standout feature of the 2024 LG StanbyME is its ability to pair with the LG StanbyME Speaker. This combination provides an immersive entertainment experience, with the speaker's WOW Orchestra feature connecting via Bluetooth to StanbyME’s built-in audio system. The result is superior sound quality that complements the screen’s stunning visuals. The 2024 LG StanbyME’s α (Alpha) 7 Gen4 processor enhances tone mapping, while the speaker's 20-millimeter dual tweeters and dual passive radiators deliver clear, detailed stereo sound.

You can easily manage battery life, fine-tune sound EQ settings, adjust volume, and more through the speaker’s dedicated widget on the 2024 LG StanbyME interface. The speaker attaches securely to the screen with a specially engineered cradle, ensuring high-quality sound and visuals without needing a full sound system setup.

Improved Flexibility

Building on the design of its predecessor, the 2024 LG StanbyME introduces several key improvements that enhance the lifestyle screen’s functionality and style. The screen’s five concealed wheels at its base now feature an upgraded wheel design, enabling smooth and quiet movement around the room– even on carpet.

Alongside its enhanced wheel design, the lifestyle screen’s stand allows for a 20cm height adjustment. This complements the 27-inch full HD display, which can be rotated to 180° to landscape or portrait mode, swivelled to 130°, and tilted up to 50°^{^[1]}. These features allow users to effortlessly reposition the TV around their living space, allowing for optimal viewing from any angle.

Thanks to its built-in battery, the 2024 LG StanbyME screen offers up to 3 hours of wireless viewing time, providing uninterrupted entertainment without the need for constant recharging^{^[2]}. Additionally, it comes preloaded with various Over-The-Top (OTT) streaming services, allowing you to enjoy your favourite content without connecting to an external device.

Everything is conveniently controlled via an intuitive touch screen that seamlessly manages the speaker and the 2024 LG StanbyME. Whether hosting a movie or game night, or just enjoying your favourite shows, the 2024 LG StanbyME brings exceptional flexibility and convenience to any home.

Multifaceted Versatility and Acoustics

The LG StanbyME Speaker offers versatile functionality, serving as a standalone Bluetooth speaker when not connected to the 2024 LG StanbyME. Lightweight and compact (78mm height, 326mm width, 87mm depth, and 0.9kg) with an IPX5 rating and up to 16 hours of playback, it delivers pristine sound quality on the go.

Experience powerful bass and dynamic audio with the LG StanbyME Speaker. Its dual passive radiators and center woofer provide robust low-mid sound, ensuring a perfect balance of depth and clarity for an immersive audio experience that captures your favorite music as the artist intended.

Together, the 2024 LG StanbyME and LG StanbyME Speaker offer a seamless, elevated home entertainment experience with innovative features and superior performance, making it easy to enjoy high-quality audio and visuals in any part of your home.

Hi Huneybees,

With technology growing every day, so much can be done and improvised, for these new-age gadgets and devices integrate into our lifestyles. Leading local furniture brand Commune and Samsung Electronics Singapore recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding, introducing them as the first non-electronics authorized retailer for selected Samsung TVs including The Frame and The Serif.

The exclusive partnership is a first-of-its-kind for both Samsung and Commune, which will offer consumers more options to elevate their home décor and living spaces through the fusion of art and design with technology. When you step into the Commune showrooms in Singapore, you can see how sleek and stylish these technology products can seamlessly blend with modern furniture, giving your living space a holistic and comfortable feel.

About The Frame

With interchangeable bezels (sold separately) and other dynamic customization options, The Frame offers more ways than ever to customize the look and feel of a room. The Frame goes beyond the traditional concept of a TV to become a functional piece of home décor that elevates the design of any living space.

See how easily the TV can be integrated into your house' theme.

When it is not being used to enjoy TV programs, The Frame's Art Mode (Some art may require purchase or paid subscription with the Art Store) displays digital pieces of artwork, to transform an everyday living space into a dynamic gallery space. Just like how a framed picture looks different depending on the time of day, The Frame's Brightness Sensor adjusts the screen settings based on the ambient light in the room.

This year, The Frame also features the brilliant picture quality of QLED with deeper contrasts, darker blacks and 100% real color. Equipped with Bixby, Samsung’s AI-powered voice control platform, users can use voice commands to search their favorite shows and streaming platforms, and control compatible smart lights, soundbars, cameras, door locks and more via the SmartThings Dashboard on the TV.

About The Serif

The Serif embodies an iconic design that is perfect for your living space. The TV is the stunning result of a unique collaboration between the award-winning design duo Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec and Samsung. Blurring the line between furniture and technology, The Serif challenges consumers to think about how the TV fits into their homes and lives.

It is defined by a single frame and draws inspiration from the simple elegance of typography, where the TV forms a distinct “I” shape, designed to be appreciated from any angle.

The Serif is equipped with enhanced performance capabilities and picture quality. With just one touch via Bluetooth®, users can play music directly from their smartphone to their TV. This year, the Serif also features the brilliant picture quality of QLED with deeper contrasts, darker blacks and 100% real color. The result is a sophisticated form factor – one that combines a pristine display with the look and feel of top-of-the-line furniture.

The Serif also comes with sleek and minimalist features that allow the TV to blend seamlessly into the home, through its Magic Screen. Adding new aesthetic and practical value, Samsung's Magic Screen enables the TV to set the mood or fade into the background, depending on user preference. In Magic Screen, the TV can artfully display useful information like the time, weather forecast and the day's headlines. It can also transform into another platform for art by displaying professional photographs, customizable design patterns, and family photos. Exclusive to the Serif, Magic Screen will also feature a Bouroullec Palette, offering users 10 exclusive palettes - two patterns (Fabric & Leaf) in five different colors.

The Magic screen background setting feature may vary depending on the environment where the TV is installed including, but not limited to, wall designs, patterns, and/or colors. The setup process requires a Samsung Account. The TV must have an internet connection for mobile set-up.

Local Pricing and Availability

The Frame and The Serif are both available for purchase at Commune and major consumer electronics stores, at the following recommended retail prices.

Model	RRP
The Frame 2019 (55”)	$3,599
