Search for a "bezel" for Samsung The Frame and you'll find two very different products: Samsung's own customizable bezels and decorative frames like ours. Both change how the TV looks on the wall, but they are built for different goals. Here is how they compare, so you can pick the one that fits your room.
What is a Samsung The Frame bezel?
Samsung sells a customizable bezel as an accessory for The Frame. According to Samsung's product listings:
- It attaches magnetically. Samsung lists "Magnetic Attachment" as a key feature.
- It comes in separate pieces. The specifications list top and bottom pieces and left and right pieces. Samsung's installation advice says each piece is labeled, slides into place, attaches by magnet and is secured with corner snaps.
- It is sold by screen size and TV model. Each listing names a compatible model and screen size, and Samsung offers versions for different generations of The Frame.
- It comes in a few finishes. Samsung's listings include finishes such as Modern Teak, Modern White and Sand Gold Metal.
In short, Samsung's bezel changes the color or material of the TV's edge while keeping the clean, modern look of the TV.

What is a decorative frame?
A decorative frame is about the art-gallery look. Instead of a slim trim, it adds a wider, shaped profile around the screen, so the TV reads like a framed picture when Art Mode is on.
Our frames are made for Samsung The Frame in the 32" to 85" size classes, with options for The Frame Pro in 55" to 85". Details that apply across our product pages:
- Profile: 8 cm (3.15 in). That is the profile measurement, not the overall width or height of the frame.
- Styles: from smooth, simple profiles to carved, ornamental designs, in gold, champagne, silver, brown, black and green finishes. Compare them in the TV frame collection.
- Assembly: tool-free. Follow the instructions supplied with your frame and keep the TV's ventilation openings clear.
- What's included: the frame only. The TV and the artwork you display are not included.

Which one should you choose?
Choose a Samsung bezel if you like The Frame's minimal look and just want the edge to match your shelves, flooring or walls.
Choose a decorative frame if you want the TV to look like a painting on the wall: over a fireplace, in a gallery wall, or in a room with classic details such as molding, brass or carved wood. A carved gold profile like Rome Gold leans traditional. A finish like Lisbon Champagne sits more quietly with a soft palette, and Lisbon Green brings an earthy note.
Check the fit before you order
Whichever you choose, the fit depends on your exact TV, not on screen size alone. Find the model code on the label on the back of your TV or in the TV's settings, then match both the size and the model. Our size and model guide walks through it step by step.
On our core designs, the model options are Samsung The Frame (2021–2025) and Samsung The Frame Pro. Options can differ by design, so always use the selectors on the product page you are buying from. If your model or model year isn't listed, contact us before you order.
Frequently asked questions
Is a decorative frame the same as a bezel?
Not quite. Both go around the edge of the screen, and many people use the words interchangeably. A bezel usually means a slim trim around the screen edge, while a decorative frame adds a wider, shaped profile for a framed-art look.
Will my remote and TV sensors still work with a frame?
Bluetooth remotes work in Bluetooth mode. Infrared performance can vary with sensor coverage, and covering motion or light sensors can affect some TV features, including some Art Mode functions. You may need to adjust your TV settings after installation.
Can I return a frame if it isn't right?
You can request a return within 30 days of delivery if the frame is unused, uninstalled and in its original packaging. Please contact us before sending anything back. Full terms are in our refund policy.
Do you charge for shipping?
Shipping within the U.S. is free. Details are shown at checkout.
