Tesla CEO Elon Musk has changed
his stance on cryptocurrency
.
Back in March, Musk
announced
Tesla was accepting Bitcoin for its electric cars. Earlier this year the EV company even bought
$1.5 billion of the cryptocurrency
.
On Wednesday afternoon, that all ended. Musk tweeted that the cryptocurrency's "great cost to the environment" meant Tesla won't be offering the payment option for its zero-emissions vehicles.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
According to the
environmental group Sierra Club
, Bitcoin mining produces as much carbon dioxide each year as New Zealand. The next 30 years of Bitcoin mining could raise the world's temperature two degrees Celsius, the group claims. Not a good look for a company centered around sustainability and freedom from fossil fuels.

Only yesterday, Musk asked his Twitter followers about
allowing Dogecoin for Tesla purchases.
Doge isn't the same as Bitcoin, but it's similar enough. Musk has been tweeting and talking about Dogecoin for several weeks, including on
last week's
Saturday Night Live
. In January, Musk
changed his Twitter bio to #bitcoin
.
Tesla still has its Bitcoin bounty but Musk said the company won't sell it until mining uses more sustainable energy.
He also noted that Tesla is interested in finding more energy efficient cryptocurrencies, but he didn't name any specific coins, which might've led to a huge frenzy.

The network will serve disconnected rural and indigenous communities.
The Middle-Mile Broadband Network (MMBN) will serve millions of Californians across 58 counties.

California just launched the largest public broadband network in the country — and its serving Indigenous communities first.
On April 2, Governor Gavin Newsom officially "turned on" California’s new
Middle-Mile Broadband Network
(MMBN)
, part of the state's Middle-Mile Broadband Initiative and Broadband for All pledge. One of several projects funded by the $3.2 billion initiative, California's Department of Technology (CDT) repurposed dormant fiber infrastructure in the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountain region and created a full-fledged, high-capacity broadband backbone for use by nearby rural communities. The effort joins other nationwide projects aimed at filling out the country's "missing miles" of internet by providing fiber-optic cables, a gap that predominantly affects rural and indigenous communities.
The state also unveiled its first customer: The
Bishop Paiute Tribe
, located at the base of the Sierra Nevada in Bishop, California.
"Today marks a historic first as a California tribal nation enthusiastically leads the way to provide increased access and reliability to their local community," said Tribal Affairs Secretary Christina Snider-Ashtari in a press release.
Through the partnership, the Bishop Paiute Tribe will act as its own Internet Service Provider (ISP), independently managing and operating its broadband service, including setting pricing and service offerings for households on and off the reservation.
"A lot of work has gone into this project," Emma Williams, chairwoman of the Bishop Paiute Tribe. "We’re so happy to have this portion of the state’s middle-mile network turned on so the people in our community who desperately need a reliable and affordable internet connection can access everything from schoolwork to telehealth appointments."
It's especially significant that the state's first live project is connecting a federal tribe. Much like other rural areas across the country,
Indigenous communities are still grossly underserved by ISPs
, reporting lower broadband subscription rates, slower download speeds, and a higher reliance on smartphones for internet usage when compared to the general population. In early federal funding allotments for rural broadband projects, tribal lands and organizations made up less than 3 percent.
The Biden-Harris administration significantly ramped up investment in such projects, but connecting these areas takes time. To fill the gap, many tribal nations have funded their own community internet projects or turned to communication giants, like AT&T, to secure reliable internet connectivity.
While California has continued investing in projects to connect communities via last mile projects, the federal government has waned in its commitment to rural broadband connectivity under the Trump administration.
Zeroing out rural broadband funding
and rebranding the existing Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program, the Trump administration has instead placed its focus on private satellite internet providers, including
Elon Musk-owned Starlink
.
"This is a meaningful step in the Middle Mile Broadband Initiative, as it signifies the first active connection, but also the commitment to Tribal communities," Matthew Rantanen explained in a statement to Mashable. A connectivity veteran, Rantanen has consulted on California's Tribal Advisory Group, serves as director of technology at the Southern California Tribal Chairmen's Association, and is the vice president of tribal relations for GoldenStateNet, the third-party administrator to CDT and MMBN. "It is particularly relevant for the Bishop Paiute Tribe, as it is a key ingredient to the success of their next phase, building fiber to the home and establishing their own ISP."
Speaking to Mashable last year, Rantanen explained that the Trump administration's new internet priorities could pose a risk to existing Middle Mile and tribal connectivity projects, many of which were already allocated federal dollars. State governments are filling in gaps, but many face additional pressure from
Trump and his appointees
, including
FCC chair Brendan Carr
.

A quick look at the April 2026 Samsung TV releases
We're finally getting some new Samsung TVs that
aren't
the
$29,999.99 115-inch Micro RGB TV
. At the end of March, Samsung
announced the release of its new Neo QLED
(mini LED) TVs. And on April 2, the TV tour continued as Samsung
launched its full 2026 OLED TV lineup
, plus a light refresh to The Frame Pro. But for all intents and purposes, it's safe to count the new flagship Samsung OLED as an honorary The Frame TV. You'll see why.
The 2026 Samsung OLED line and 2026 The Frame and The Frame Pro line are available for purchase at
Samsung.com
. Let's discuss the details.
Not much is new with the new
The Frame Pro
The 2026 Samsung Frame Pro.

The
original Frame Pro
just came out in April 2025, and Samsung didn't make a big deal about an update to the Frame lineup at
CES
— so we knew not to expect anything revolutionary on this front. The 2026 Frame Pro's only real technical update is a Micro HDMI port that supports eARC. Samsung also bumped The Frame Pro's smallest size to 55 inches, but it's not available to purchase yet.
Here's how much The Frame Pro 2026 will cost:
65-inch
The Frame Pro
— $1,999.99
75-inch
The Frame Pro
— $2,799.99
85-inch The Frame Pro
— $3,999.99
Upgraded non-Pro Frame models from 55 to 85 inches are also on the way. As a refresher, the main difference between the two frame models is that The Frame is LED and The Frame Pro is
QLED
.
The
new Samsung OLEDs
are more exciting — and artsy

Oddly enough, it's Samsung's latest flagship OLED TV that has gotten a creative overhaul. The new
Samsung S95H
isn't
officially
an OLED version of The Frame, but it certainly has Frame-like tendencies. First up: The S95H doesn't have the classic black TV frame. Its new steel-colored metal bezel mounts the TV flush to the wall for a "gallery-like" floating aesthetic — sound familiar?
The S95H (and the mid-range S90H) also marks the first time that the Samsung Art Store will be accessible on an OLED TV. Complete with Wireless One Connect Ready compatibility, gaming features like Motion Xcelerator 165Hz, and improved Glare Free technology, the Samsung S95H could quickly become the best Samsung TV you can buy right now.
The
mid-range Samsung S90H
steals several of the same impressive upgrades from the S95H, including upgraded reflection handling and the Ultimate Gaming Pack. Both the S95H and S90H see higher peak brightness, thanks to improved HDR formats (OLED HDR Pro and OLED HDR+, respectively). Brighter than last year's Samsung S95F, which was already possibly the
brightest OLED TV on the market
? This is huge news for anyone whose TV time is truly
split between bright and dark rooms
.
The
entry-level Samsung S85H
should easily make our "
best 65-inch TVs
" list as the best budget OLED TV. (Not that there are a ton of those to begin with, but still.) It's armed with the NQ4 AI Gen2 processor (the same as Samsung's mid-range
QN80F Neo QLED TV
from 2025), a 120 Hz refresh rate, and Dolby Atmos sound. It'll even be compatible with the upcoming 2026 Q-Series Soundbars and Music Studio speakers.
Here's how much the 2026 Samsung OLED lineup will cost:
Samsung S95H
55-inch Samsung S95H
— $2,499.99
65-inch Samsung S95H
— $3,399.99
77-inch Samsung S95H
— $4,499.99
83-inch Samsung S95H
— $6,499.99
Samsung S90H
42-inch Samsung S90H
— $1,399.99
48-inch Samsung S90H
— $1,599.99
55-inch Samsung S90H
— $1,999.99
65-inch Samsung S90H
— $2,699.99
77-inch Samsung S90H
— $3,699.99
83-inch Samsung S90H
— $5,299.99
Samsung S85H
55-inch Samsung S95H
— $2,499.99
65-inch Samsung S95H
— $3,399.99
77-inch Samsung S95H
— $4,499.99
83-inch Samsung S95H
— $6,499.99
Next on the docket: The smaller, more practically-priced Samsung Micro RGB TVs that we were promised at CES.

California just launched the largest public broadband network in the country — and its serving Indigenous communities first.
On April 2, Governor Gavin Newsom officially "turned on" California’s new [Middle-Mile Broadband Network (MMBN)](https://mclist.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=afffa58af0d1d42fee9a20e55&id=243c47196f&e=7d7ad5ce99 "(opens in a new window)"), part of the state's Middle-Mile Broadband Initiative and Broadband for All pledge. One of several projects funded by the \$3.2 billion initiative, California's Department of Technology (CDT) repurposed dormant fiber infrastructure in the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountain region and created a full-fledged, high-capacity broadband backbone for use by nearby rural communities. The effort joins other nationwide projects aimed at filling out the country's "missing miles" of internet by providing fiber-optic cables, a gap that predominantly affects rural and indigenous communities.
The state also unveiled its first customer: The [Bishop Paiute Tribe](https://bishoppaiute.net/ "(opens in a new window)"), located at the base of the Sierra Nevada in Bishop, California.
"Today marks a historic first as a California tribal nation enthusiastically leads the way to provide increased access and reliability to their local community," said Tribal Affairs Secretary Christina Snider-Ashtari in a press release.

[The Earth is glowing in new Artemis II pictures of home](https://mashable.com/article/nasa-artemis-ii-earth-photos)
Through the partnership, the Bishop Paiute Tribe will act as its own Internet Service Provider (ISP), independently managing and operating its broadband service, including setting pricing and service offerings for households on and off the reservation.
"A lot of work has gone into this project," Emma Williams, chairwoman of the Bishop Paiute Tribe. "We’re so happy to have this portion of the state’s middle-mile network turned on so the people in our community who desperately need a reliable and affordable internet connection can access everything from schoolwork to telehealth appointments."
It's especially significant that the state's first live project is connecting a federal tribe. Much like other rural areas across the country, [Indigenous communities are still grossly underserved by ISPs](https://mashable.com/article/why-the-digital-divide-persists-for-tribal-areas-despite-funding), reporting lower broadband subscription rates, slower download speeds, and a higher reliance on smartphones for internet usage when compared to the general population. In early federal funding allotments for rural broadband projects, tribal lands and organizations made up less than 3 percent.
The Biden-Harris administration significantly ramped up investment in such projects, but connecting these areas takes time. To fill the gap, many tribal nations have funded their own community internet projects or turned to communication giants, like AT\&T, to secure reliable internet connectivity.

While California has continued investing in projects to connect communities via last mile projects, the federal government has waned in its commitment to rural broadband connectivity under the Trump administration. [Zeroing out rural broadband funding](https://mashable.com/article/trump-broadband-funding-cuts) and rebranding the existing Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program, the Trump administration has instead placed its focus on private satellite internet providers, including [Elon Musk-owned Starlink](https://mashable.com/article/space-x-broadband-funding-trump).
"This is a meaningful step in the Middle Mile Broadband Initiative, as it signifies the first active connection, but also the commitment to Tribal communities," Matthew Rantanen explained in a statement to Mashable. A connectivity veteran, Rantanen has consulted on California's Tribal Advisory Group, serves as director of technology at the Southern California Tribal Chairmen's Association, and is the vice president of tribal relations for GoldenStateNet, the third-party administrator to CDT and MMBN. "It is particularly relevant for the Bishop Paiute Tribe, as it is a key ingredient to the success of their next phase, building fiber to the home and establishing their own ISP."
Speaking to Mashable last year, Rantanen explained that the Trump administration's new internet priorities could pose a risk to existing Middle Mile and tribal connectivity projects, many of which were already allocated federal dollars. State governments are filling in gaps, but many face additional pressure from [Trump and his appointees](https://www.reuters.com/world/trump-says-he-will-sign-order-curbing-state-ai-laws-2025-12-11/ "(opens in a new window)"), including [FCC chair Brendan Carr](https://mashable.com/article/att-dei-fcc).

The 2026 Samsung Frame Pro. Credit: Samsung
The [original Frame Pro](https://mashable.com/article/samsung-frame-pro-2025-release) just came out in April 2025, and Samsung didn't make a big deal about an update to the Frame lineup at [CES](https://mashable.com/article/ces-2026-best-tvs-samsung-lg-tcl) — so we knew not to expect anything revolutionary on this front. The 2026 Frame Pro's only real technical update is a Micro HDMI port that supports eARC. Samsung also bumped The Frame Pro's smallest size to 55 inches, but it's not available to purchase yet.
Here's how much The Frame Pro 2026 will cost:

Upgraded non-Pro Frame models from 55 to 85 inches are also on the way. As a refresher, the main difference between the two frame models is that The Frame is LED and The Frame Pro is [QLED](https://mashable.com/article/tv-specs-explainer).
## The [new Samsung OLEDs](https://zdcs.link/a07R2l?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=new+Samsung+OLEDs&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=a07R2l&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)") are more exciting — and artsy

Oddly enough, it's Samsung's latest flagship OLED TV that has gotten a creative overhaul. The new [Samsung S95H](https://zdcs.link/a07R2l?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=Samsung+S95H&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=a07R2l&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)") isn't *officially* an OLED version of The Frame, but it certainly has Frame-like tendencies. First up: The S95H doesn't have the classic black TV frame. Its new steel-colored metal bezel mounts the TV flush to the wall for a "gallery-like" floating aesthetic — sound familiar?
The S95H (and the mid-range S90H) also marks the first time that the Samsung Art Store will be accessible on an OLED TV. Complete with Wireless One Connect Ready compatibility, gaming features like Motion Xcelerator 165Hz, and improved Glare Free technology, the Samsung S95H could quickly become the best Samsung TV you can buy right now.

The [mid-range Samsung S90H](https://zdcs.link/aD81xe?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=mid-range+Samsung+S90H&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=aD81xe&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)") steals several of the same impressive upgrades from the S95H, including upgraded reflection handling and the Ultimate Gaming Pack. Both the S95H and S90H see higher peak brightness, thanks to improved HDR formats (OLED HDR Pro and OLED HDR+, respectively). Brighter than last year's Samsung S95F, which was already possibly the [brightest OLED TV on the market](https://mashable.com/roundup/best-65-inch-tvs-2026)? This is huge news for anyone whose TV time is truly [split between bright and dark rooms](https://mashable.com/article/tv-specs-explainer).

(Not that there are a ton of those to begin with, but still.) It's armed with the NQ4 AI Gen2 processor (the same as Samsung's mid-range [QN80F Neo QLED TV](https://zdcs.link/QxeMMY?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=QN80F+Neo+QLED+TV&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=QxeMMY&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)") from 2025), a 120 Hz refresh rate, and Dolby Atmos sound. It'll even be compatible with the upcoming 2026 Q-Series Soundbars and Music Studio speakers.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has changed [his stance on cryptocurrency](https://mashable.com/article/elon-musk-bitcoin-twitter-bio/).
Back in March, Musk [announced](https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/24/elon-musk-says-people-can-now-buy-a-tesla-with-bitcoin.html "(opens in a new window)") Tesla was accepting Bitcoin for its electric cars. Earlier this year the EV company even bought [\$1.5 billion of the cryptocurrency](https://mashable.com/article/tesla-buys-bitcoin/).
On Wednesday afternoon, that all ended. Musk tweeted that the cryptocurrency's "great cost to the environment" meant Tesla won't be offering the payment option for its zero-emissions vehicles.
> [This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1392602041025843203 "(Opens in a new tab) (opens in a new window)")
According to the [environmental group Sierra Club](https://www.sierraclub.org/pennsylvania/blog/2021/03/environmental-impacts-cryptocurrency#:~:text=Bitcoin%20produces%2036.95%20megatons%20of,China%2C%20where%20electricity%20is%20cheaper. "(opens in a new window)"), Bitcoin mining produces as much carbon dioxide each year as New Zealand. The next 30 years of Bitcoin mining could raise the world's temperature two degrees Celsius, the group claims. Not a good look for a company centered around sustainability and freedom from fossil fuels.

Only yesterday, Musk asked his Twitter followers about [allowing Dogecoin for Tesla purchases.](https://mashable.com/article/elon-musk-doge-tesla/) Doge isn't the same as Bitcoin, but it's similar enough. Musk has been tweeting and talking about Dogecoin for several weeks, including on [last week's *Saturday Night Live*](https://mashable.com/video/elon-musk-snl-weekend-update-dogecoin/). In January, Musk [changed his Twitter bio to \#bitcoin](https://mashable.com/article/elon-musk-bitcoin-twitter-bio/).
Tesla still has its Bitcoin bounty but Musk said the company won't sell it until mining uses more sustainable energy.
He also noted that Tesla is interested in finding more energy efficient cryptocurrencies, but he didn't name any specific coins, which might've led to a huge frenzy.

The network will serve disconnected rural and indigenous communities.

The Middle-Mile Broadband Network (MMBN) will serve millions of Californians across 58 counties. Credit: Office of Governor Gavin Newsom
California just launched the largest public broadband network in the country — and its serving Indigenous communities first.
On April 2, Governor Gavin Newsom officially "turned on" California’s new [Middle-Mile Broadband Network (MMBN)](https://mclist.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=afffa58af0d1d42fee9a20e55&id=243c47196f&e=7d7ad5ce99 "(opens in a new window)"), part of the state's Middle-Mile Broadband Initiative and Broadband for All pledge. One of several projects funded by the \$3.2 billion initiative, California's Department of Technology (CDT) repurposed dormant fiber infrastructure in the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountain region and created a full-fledged, high-capacity broadband backbone for use by nearby rural communities. The effort joins other nationwide projects aimed at filling out the country's "missing miles" of internet by providing fiber-optic cables, a gap that predominantly affects rural and indigenous communities.
The state also unveiled its first customer: The [Bishop Paiute Tribe](https://bishoppaiute.net/ "(opens in a new window)"), located at the base of the Sierra Nevada in Bishop, California.
"Today marks a historic first as a California tribal nation enthusiastically leads the way to provide increased access and reliability to their local community," said Tribal Affairs Secretary Christina Snider-Ashtari in a press release.
Through the partnership, the Bishop Paiute Tribe will act as its own Internet Service Provider (ISP), independently managing and operating its broadband service, including setting pricing and service offerings for households on and off the reservation.
"A lot of work has gone into this project," Emma Williams, chairwoman of the Bishop Paiute Tribe. "We’re so happy to have this portion of the state’s middle-mile network turned on so the people in our community who desperately need a reliable and affordable internet connection can access everything from schoolwork to telehealth appointments."
It's especially significant that the state's first live project is connecting a federal tribe. Much like other rural areas across the country, [Indigenous communities are still grossly underserved by ISPs](https://mashable.com/article/why-the-digital-divide-persists-for-tribal-areas-despite-funding), reporting lower broadband subscription rates, slower download speeds, and a higher reliance on smartphones for internet usage when compared to the general population. In early federal funding allotments for rural broadband projects, tribal lands and organizations made up less than 3 percent.
The Biden-Harris administration significantly ramped up investment in such projects, but connecting these areas takes time. To fill the gap, many tribal nations have funded their own community internet projects or turned to communication giants, like AT\&T, to secure reliable internet connectivity.
While California has continued investing in projects to connect communities via last mile projects, the federal government has waned in its commitment to rural broadband connectivity under the Trump administration. [Zeroing out rural broadband funding](https://mashable.com/article/trump-broadband-funding-cuts) and rebranding the existing Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program, the Trump administration has instead placed its focus on private satellite internet providers, including [Elon Musk-owned Starlink](https://mashable.com/article/space-x-broadband-funding-trump).
"This is a meaningful step in the Middle Mile Broadband Initiative, as it signifies the first active connection, but also the commitment to Tribal communities," Matthew Rantanen explained in a statement to Mashable. A connectivity veteran, Rantanen has consulted on California's Tribal Advisory Group, serves as director of technology at the Southern California Tribal Chairmen's Association, and is the vice president of tribal relations for GoldenStateNet, the third-party administrator to CDT and MMBN. "It is particularly relevant for the Bishop Paiute Tribe, as it is a key ingredient to the success of their next phase, building fiber to the home and establishing their own ISP."
Speaking to Mashable last year, Rantanen explained that the Trump administration's new internet priorities could pose a risk to existing Middle Mile and tribal connectivity projects, many of which were already allocated federal dollars. State governments are filling in gaps, but many face additional pressure from [Trump and his appointees](https://www.reuters.com/world/trump-says-he-will-sign-order-curbing-state-ai-laws-2025-12-11/ "(opens in a new window)"), including [FCC chair Brendan Carr](https://mashable.com/article/att-dei-fcc).

We're finally getting some new Samsung TVs that *aren't* the [\$29,999.99 115-inch Micro RGB TV](https://zdcs.link/9wB88N?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=%2429%2C999.99+115-inch+Micro+RGB+TV&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=9wB88N&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)"). At the end of March, Samsung [announced the release of its new Neo QLED](https://news.samsung.com/us/samsung-expands-2026-tv-lineup-refreshed-neo-qled-series-new-mini-led-tvs "(opens in a new window)") (mini LED) TVs. And on April 2, the TV tour continued as Samsung [launched its full 2026 OLED TV lineup](https://news.samsung.com/us/samsung-upgrades-2026-oled-tvs-new-designs-expanded-premium-features/ "(opens in a new window)"), plus a light refresh to The Frame Pro. But for all intents and purposes, it's safe to count the new flagship Samsung OLED as an honorary The Frame TV. You'll see why.
The 2026 Samsung OLED line and 2026 The Frame and The Frame Pro line are available for purchase at [Samsung.com](https://zdcs.link/9YRxxl?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=Samsung.com&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=9YRxxl&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)"). Let's discuss the details.
## Not much is new with the new [The Frame Pro](https://zdcs.link/922055?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=The+Frame+Pro&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=922055&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)")

The 2026 Samsung Frame Pro. Credit: Samsung
The [original Frame Pro](https://mashable.com/article/samsung-frame-pro-2025-release) just came out in April 2025, and Samsung didn't make a big deal about an update to the Frame lineup at [CES](https://mashable.com/article/ces-2026-best-tvs-samsung-lg-tcl) — so we knew not to expect anything revolutionary on this front. The 2026 Frame Pro's only real technical update is a Micro HDMI port that supports eARC. Samsung also bumped The Frame Pro's smallest size to 55 inches, but it's not available to purchase yet.
Here's how much The Frame Pro 2026 will cost:

Upgraded non-Pro Frame models from 55 to 85 inches are also on the way. As a refresher, the main difference between the two frame models is that The Frame is LED and The Frame Pro is [QLED](https://mashable.com/article/tv-specs-explainer).

Oddly enough, it's Samsung's latest flagship OLED TV that has gotten a creative overhaul. The new [Samsung S95H](https://zdcs.link/a07R2l?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=Samsung+S95H&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=a07R2l&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)") isn't *officially* an OLED version of The Frame, but it certainly has Frame-like tendencies. First up: The S95H doesn't have the classic black TV frame. Its new steel-colored metal bezel mounts the TV flush to the wall for a "gallery-like" floating aesthetic — sound familiar?
The S95H (and the mid-range S90H) also marks the first time that the Samsung Art Store will be accessible on an OLED TV. Complete with Wireless One Connect Ready compatibility, gaming features like Motion Xcelerator 165Hz, and improved Glare Free technology, the Samsung S95H could quickly become the best Samsung TV you can buy right now.
The [mid-range Samsung S90H](https://zdcs.link/aD81xe?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=mid-range+Samsung+S90H&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=aD81xe&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)") steals several of the same impressive upgrades from the S95H, including upgraded reflection handling and the Ultimate Gaming Pack. Both the S95H and S90H see higher peak brightness, thanks to improved HDR formats (OLED HDR Pro and OLED HDR+, respectively). Brighter than last year's Samsung S95F, which was already possibly the [brightest OLED TV on the market](https://mashable.com/roundup/best-65-inch-tvs-2026)? This is huge news for anyone whose TV time is truly [split between bright and dark rooms](https://mashable.com/article/tv-specs-explainer).
The [entry-level Samsung S85H](https://zdcs.link/z3OnnK?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=entry-level+Samsung+S85H&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=z3OnnK&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)") should easily make our "[best 65-inch TVs](https://mashable.com/roundup/best-65-inch-tvs-2026)" list as the best budget OLED TV. (Not that there are a ton of those to begin with, but still.) It's armed with the NQ4 AI Gen2 processor (the same as Samsung's mid-range [QN80F Neo QLED TV](https://zdcs.link/QxeMMY?pageview_type=Standard&template=article&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=QN80F+Neo+QLED+TV&object_type=article&object_uuid=01IMUQGLtIs1FxqyRNJJdzg&short_url=QxeMMY&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Farticle%2Fsamsung-2026-the-frame-pro-oled-tvs-release-price-specs&session_uuid=f1536f5f-3ab6-4fdb-9c79-fcb72bc70adf&view_instance_uuid=98af4d98-bc44-4ea4-b214-31b05797d20e "(opens in a new window)") from 2025), a 120 Hz refresh rate, and Dolby Atmos sound. It'll even be compatible with the upcoming 2026 Q-Series Soundbars and Music Studio speakers.
Here's how much the 2026 Samsung OLED lineup will cost:
