After years of being forced to display their abject poverty with traditional, hideous televisions, the nation’s budget-conscious families were given a new lease on dignity this week as Hisense unveiled its S7N CanvasTV—an affordable knockoff of the Samsung Frame, now at the low, desperate price of $699.99.

The CanvasTV, which promises to disguise one’s TV as tasteful art, comes preloaded with over 1,000 classic works, including Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Night’, Monet’s ‘Water Lilies’, and no fewer than fourteen AI-generated pictures of fruit in a bowl. “For years, I had to hide my TV behind furniture when guests came over,” said proud new owner Linda Gables of Peoria, Illinois. “Now, people think I have money for both high culture and subscriptions to twelve streaming services.”

The device boasts a 4K QLED screen and a matte finish designed to fool at least 60% of guests after two glasses of pinot grigio. “It’s basically the same as the Samsung Frame, except for brand prestige, picture quality, and the existential emptiness,” explained tech reviewer Brad Silvers. “But hey, the bezel is free! That’s real value.”

Hisense executive Kevin Lo described the TV as “a disruptive force in democratizing fake sophistication,” claiming, “Soon, even apartments built after 1974 can look like a West Elm catalogue threw up in them.”

Samsung declined to comment, releasing only a brief statement: “We hope the less fortunate enjoy their new rectangles disguised as rectangles.”

Early reviews indicate that homeowners are already enjoying awkward conversations with relatives, now debating whether the wall art is a TV, a painting, or possibly just a portal to another universe where affordable housing exists.
