▲ Visitors explore the Samsung Lounge at Art Basel in Basel 2026, where Samsung Art Store was presented as a physical exhibition. Each June, Basel, Switzerland becomes a meeting point for the global art world, with Art Basel’s flagship fair drawing leading galleries, artists, collectors and institutions to Messe Basel and cultural sites across the city.
From June 18 to 21, this year’s fair brought together 290 galleries from 43 countries and territories presenting works ranging from historical foundations to the most progressive contemporary and digital practices, reaffirming its place at the center of the international art calendar. As the Official Art TV provider of Art Basel, Samsung Electronics presented an experience that connected personal taste with digital curation, showing how Samsung Art Store can bring art discovered at the fair into everyday spaces through screens designed for the home.
A Living Gallery of Personal Aesthetic
Samsung Art Store is a digital art platform on Samsung Art TVs, where users can explore curated works from leading museums, galleries and artists. At Art Basel in Basel (ABB), the Samsung Art Store Lounge translated that experience into a physical exhibition, showing how digital curation can make art discovery more personal.
▲ Through a survey order form, artworks are matched to each visitor’s personal art preferences. The experience began with a short order form. Visitors answered survey questions about what first drew their eye, what they looked for in art and what kind of piece would add meaning in their home. Their responses were scanned through a tablet, then matched to one of four curated themes: Geometric, Surreal, Vibrant or Painterly.
▲ (From left) Custom badges showed each visitor’s art theme, turning their results into a keepsake from the experience. At the center of the lounge was the Art Wall, a gallery-style installation composed of Micro RGB, OLED,1 The Frame Pro and The Frame displays from Samsung’s 2026 Art TV lineup. Once each order form was scanned, the Art Wall displayed artworks from the theme matched to the participant’s results.
“The Frame is so stylish and I loved how clearly you could see the artwork from every angle,” said an attendee.
The experience continued into the Giveaway Zone, where visitors received a custom warranty card and badge tied to their theme. The card playfully certified their art style, while the badge carried the result beyond the Art Wall, sparking conversations around shared tastes, contrasting preferences and the kinds of art guests imagined living with at home.
▲ (From left) Visitors see their personalized art theme appear on Samsung Art TVs inside the lounge. One attendee said, “I was surprised by how well the Vibrant theme matched my taste. The colors looked so rich on the Samsung Art TVs. I could picture one of those pieces bringing so much energy into my home.”
Between visitor sessions, the Art Wall shifted to highlight the city’s artistic identity, previewing Samsung’s new ABB 2026 Collection, curated exclusively for Samsung Art Store. Featuring 24 works by Swiss and Swiss-based artists from eight galleries exhibiting at this year’s fair, the collection offered a regional view of Basel through different generations, styles and ways of seeing.
An Artifact of Time, Framed by Daniel Arsham
As Samsung’s 2026 Art TV Ambassador, visual artist Daniel Arsham brought one of contemporary art’s most recognizable visual languages to The Frame Pro. Based in New York, Arsham is known for his concept of “fictional archaeology,” creating sculptures, drawings, films and architectural works that imagine present-day objects as relics from the future.
▲ Artist Daniel Arsham, Samsung’s 2026 Art TV Ambassador, stands with The Frame Pro featuring his custom bezel. In collaboration with Samsung, Arsham created a custom bezel for The Frame Pro that brings his sculptural language to the television frame. Made with stone-like material, the bezel features a raised texture that recalls topographical maps and the erosion patterns seen throughout his work. The surrounding wallpaper was developed from ultra-high-resolution 3D scans of sculptures from Arsham’s studio, enlarging their crystalline and weathered surfaces into an immersive installation around the screen.

To mark his role as Samsung’s 2026 Art TV Ambassador, Arsham joined visitors at the Samsung Art Store Lounge for a June 17 book signing, giving guests a closer look at his practice and his collaboration with Samsung Art TV.

A Conversation on Discovering Your Artistic Sensibility
Samsung’s Basel story continued, moving from the fair floor to Gare du Nord for a special event, “Art Night with Samsung Art TV.” During the event, invited guests gathered for a conversation about finding art in everyday spaces and how Samsung Art TV brings curatorial instinct into the home.
▲ Daniel Arsham, Karim Crippa and Daria Greene discuss individual preference, art and Samsung Art TV during Art Night with Samsung Art TV. The evening’s talk brought together voices from across art, curation and digital display. Moderated by content creator Daniel Fanslau, Arsham spoke alongside Karim Crippa, Director of Art Basel Paris and Daria Greene, Head of Content and Curation for Samsung Art Store how artistic sensibility is shaped by everyday experiences and how art can be curated, discovered and lived with.
▲ Guests exchange thoughts on personal taste and the artworks they would choose for their own spaces. The conversation returned to a simple idea: art can have a place in the home without losing its presence. Through Samsung Art TV and Samsung Art Store, artistic sensibility becomes something people can choose, display and return to every day.

Samsung Electronics today announced that it ranks as the world’s No.1 TV brand for the 20th consecutive year — marking two decades as the global leader in the television industry.
Samsung had held the top position in the global TV market since 2006, and, according to market research firm Omdia, the company recorded a 29.1% share of the global TV market in 2025. This achievement reinforces Samsung’s leadership across premium, ultra-large and next-generation display technologies.
Samsung led the premium segment priced over $2,500 with a 54.3% market share, driven by Neo QLED, OLED, and lifestyle TVs. It also maintained its lead in the segment over $1,500, holding a 52.2% market share.
“When consumers choose a TV, they’re choosing a brand they can trust for years to come,” said SW Yong, President and Head of the Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Our 20-year leadership in the global TV market reflects that trust — built on decades of engineering excellence and premium innovation.”
20 Years of Industry-Defining Innovation
Since first reaching the No.1 position in 2006 with its design-led Bordeaux TV, Samsung has consistently innovated to reshape the television industry:
2009: The company accelerated the global transition to LED TVs, setting new standards for slimmer, more energy-efficient displays. 2011: The introduction of Smart TVs further transformed televisions into connected entertainment platforms, expanding their role beyond traditional viewing. 2015: The Serif reimagined how TVs integrate into living spaces by introducing a design-focused TV that positioned the screen as a statement piece within the home. 2017: The company launched The Frame, pioneering the Art TV category by transforming the television into a customizable digital art canvas. 2017: In premium picture quality, Samsung continued to set industry benchmarks with the introduction of QLED TVs powered by quantum dot technology. 2018: 8K TVs delivered over 33 million pixels — four times the resolution of 4K. 2020: Samsung introduced MICRO LED technology, advancing self-emissive display innovation and setting new standards for brightness, contrast and color accuracy in ultra-large screens.

Samsung Electronics today announced the global launch of the 13-inch Samsung Color E-Paper (EM13DX model), expanding its Color E-Paper lineup with the world’s first display designed with a bio-resin housing derived from phytoplankton. The paper‑thin display uses advanced digital ink technology and ultra‑low power to offer businesses a practical alternative to traditional printed signage.
“As businesses look for more flexible and efficient ways to communicate, Samsung Color E-Paper represents a shift in how digital signage fits into everyday operations,” said Hyoung Jae Kim, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “By incorporating innovative technology such as phytoplankton-based bio-resin, we’re demonstrating our commitment to advancing both display technology and the materials behind it. Our Color E-Paper products are designed to replace paper with ultra-low power performance and ultra-slim, lightweight designs.”
Paper‑Like Color and Clarity for Modern Digital Displays
As the smallest model in the lineup, the new 13-inch Samsung Color E-Paper offers businesses a compact display option for shelves, counters, tables and doors where traditional paper signage is still widely used. Similar in scale to A4 paper, the display delivers 1,600 x 1,200 resolution in a 4:3 aspect ratio.
With a rechargeable, embedded battery, USB Type-C support and flexible mounting options,1 the display can be deployed without permanent power cables. Its ultra-slim 17.9mm design weighs just 0.9kg with the battery, making it easy to install and reposition across different placements as campaigns change. Samsung’s advanced color imaging algorithm enhances color accuracy and readability to deliver a paper-like look and feel. By smoothing gradations and refining contours, it produces vivid visuals that resemble traditional posters and point-of-purchase displays, helping businesses transition naturally from printed materials to digital signage.
Pioneering Lower‑Impact Signage With Bio‑Based Materials
Samsung’s 13-inch Color E-Paper is the world’s first commercial display to apply a bio-resin derived from phytoplankton in its housing. The display’s housing has been independently verified by global safety and sustainability certification organization UL to consist of 45% recycled plastic and 10% phytoplankton-based bio-resin. This material innovation was developed as an alternative to conventional petroleum-based plastics, which can reduce carbon emissions in the manufacturing process by more than 40%.2
Sustainability is carefully considered in every part of the display, from the housing to the packaging. The entire packaging, including the box, cushion and accessory box, is made from 100% paper.
Day-to-day operation is designed to be just as efficient. The display maintains static images at zero watts power, reducing unnecessary energy usage without compromising reliability.3 When content is updated, overall energy4 use remains far lower than that of conventional digital signage, which helps lower operating costs over time.
Easy Content Control With Samsung E-Paper App and Samsung VXT
Samsung’s 13-inch Color E-Paper supports simple content control for both local and remote operation. The Samsung E-Paper App, available on Android and iOS, allows staff to update and manage local content directly from personal devices, without the need for an additional remote control.
The display is also compatible with Samsung VXT, a cloud-based content and remote device management platform that lets teams remotely manage hardware settings, troubleshoot issues and create and deploy content with minimal training. For Color E-Paper, Samsung VXT includes dedicated features to optimize content visibility, as well as a preview function that allows teams to check color accuracy before deployment.
Alongside the new 13-inch display, Samsung will unveil a 20-inch model for the first time at ISE 2026, a world-renowned audiovisual and systems integration tech show held in Barcelona from Feb. 3-6. With this expansion of the Color E-Paper lineup beyond the existing 32-inch model offering, the Color E-Paper portfolio is increasingly designed to support a wide range of business needs.
Samsung continues to lead the global digital signage market, securing a 36.2% global market share by volume in Q3 2025, building on its 17-year position as the world’s leading commercial display provider.5
The EM13DX series includes two rear holders, two hanging brackets and two simple stands. Additional installation accessories may be required, depending on the setup, and are sold separately. ︎ Based on internal test results under specific conditions only. Comparison is made against petroleum-based resin (PC+ABS) of the same weight. Carbon emissions calculation is based on the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) data of resin production following ISO 14067, 14040 and 14044 standards, covering carbon emissions from cradle to gate (excluding downstream, use-phase and end-of-life emissions). All figures are estimates based on available data and are subject to change. ︎ Activities related to content refresh, content changes or device monitoring and control will require additional power. Content refresh is essential and automatically performed when the power cable or battery is connected. ︎ Battery duration may vary based on factors including network environment, hardware components and user activity. ︎ Consumer TVs are excluded.

Samsung Electronics today unveiled the world’s first 130-inch Micro RGB TV (R95H model) at CES 2026, marking the debut of its largest Micro RGB display and a bold new design direction for ultra-premium displays.
“Micro RGB represents the peak of our picture quality innovation, and the new 130-inch model takes that vision even further,” said Hun Lee, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “We’re reviving the spirit of our original design philosophy introduced more than a decade ago to deliver an unmistakably premium display, engineered with technology for a new generation.”
Bold Design That Redefines What a TV Can Be
The Micro RGB TV’s commanding scale, next-generation color technology and striking design approach reflect Samsung’s longstanding leadership in engineering excellence united with premium aesthetics. With a monumental frame and improved audio performance, the 130-inch display is intentionally designed to appear less like a television and more like a vast, immersive window that visually expands the room.
The TV offers a modern, gallery-inspired aesthetic through the Timeless Frame, a modern evolution of Samsung’s 2013 Timeless Gallery design, now with a refined frame that embodies the philosophy of “technology as art.” Inspired by the frame of a grand architectural window, the ultra-large screen appears to float within its borders, transforming the TV into an artistic centerpiece that shapes the room. Sound integrated into the display’s frame is carefully balanced to the screen’s size, so picture and audio feel naturally connected in a space.
Ultimate Viewing Experience To Match Its Scale
The 130-inch Micro RGB model features Samsung’s most advanced Micro RGB innovations to date. Powered by Micro RGB AI Engine Pro, Micro RGB Color Booster Pro and Micro RGB HDR Pro, it leverages AI to enhance dull tones and refine contrast, delivering vivid color and subtle detail across bright and dark scenes alike for realism and picture fidelity.
The display elevates picture performance with Micro RGB Precision Color 100, delivering 100% of the BT.2020 wide color gamut. Certified by the Verband der Elektrotechnik (VDE) for precise Micro RGB color reproduction, it produces finely controlled hues that appear true to life on screen. The 130-inch model also includes Samsung’s proprietary Glare Free technology, which minimizes reflections, further preserving clear color and contrast across a variety of lighting conditions for the best viewing experience.
The product supports HDR10+ ADVANCED1 and Eclipsa Audio to provide an enhanced picture and sound quality, as well as Samsung’s enhanced Vision AI Companion,2 enabling conversational search, proactive recommendations and access to AI features and apps such as AI Football Mode Pro, AI Sound Controller Pro, Live Translate, Generative Wallpaper, Microsoft Copilot and Perplexity. The first-of-its-kind display will be showcased at Samsung’s Exhibition Zone during CES 2026 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
