Unlike your typical television, the CanvasTV can transform into a piece of wall art with its Art Mode, which displays paintings or personal photos when idle. The CanvasTV S7SG series was just announced in the US, releasing as the successor to the original S7N line. What makes it stand out? Thanks to its ultra-slim wall mount, the TV can sit flush against the wall, which adds to its framed painting look. But it’s not all about the…
