Samsung Unveils Music Frame WICKED Edition

Samsung today announced the launch of Music Frame WICKED Edition, a customizable wireless speaker designed to seamlessly blend into any environment and enhance the home entertainment experience. This new edition, created in partnership with Universal Pictures' spectacular film adaptation of the iconic stage musical (in cinemas November 22), brings a unique combination of art and technology to offer consumers a personalized and immersive audio experience.

"Music Frame represents an entirely new category of audio - a customizable speaker that doubles as a picture frame. Not only can you display your favorite print photos - you can also create an orchestra of sound with your favorite playlist," said James Fishler, Senior Vice President, Home Entertainment & Display Division at Samsung Electronics America. "Music and art evoke such strong memories, and Music Frame offers a seamless way to capture both in one innovative device. This limited-time Music Frame WICKED edition beautifully brings this concept to life, helping you unlock the music within."

Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Jon M. Chu ("Crazy Rich Asians," "In the Heights"), Wicked is the untold story of the witches of Oz, starring Emmy-, Grammy- and Tony-winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo ("Harriet," Broadway's "The Color Purple") as Elphaba, a young woman misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power, and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart.

Unlocking the Music Within Homes With "Wicked"

In collaboration with Wicked, Music Frame WICKED Edition offers a unique combination of functionality and aesthetic appeal. It includes a Wicked edition Photo Frame with three photo cards featuring autographs and images of the film's beloved characters, including one exclusive picture only available with Music Frame WICKED Edition.

Further enhancing the experience, the WICKED Edition comes with a specially designed limited edition Wicked-themed bezel and customized Wicked-themed packaging, adding an extra touch of excitement and making the unboxing experience truly enchanting.

Music Frame is also fully customizable, allowing users to effortlessly match their home decor with photo frames and optional art panels. The sleek and slim design, combined with a discreet wall-mount bracket and slim power cable, ensures the Music Frame blends seamlessly into any environment.

Elevating Homes With Immersive Sound and Smart Features

With its rich, immersive sound, Music Frame WICKED Edition enables users to transform their living space into a surround sound haven. Equipped with Dolby Atmos technology, it creates a multidimensional audio experience that brings every note and sound to life. Music Frame can also work closely with other compatible Samsung screens and soundbars using Q-Symphony, which offers a more immersive, three-dimensional sound experience.

Boasting two-channel 120W sound quality, Music Frame WICKED Edition incorporates clear and powerful sound via SpaceFit Sound Pro for optimized audio based on the acoustics of a given room, as well as Adaptive Sound that adjusts audio settings based on content to deliver premium audio performance. These features ensure that Music Frame WICKED Edition offers exceptional sound quality and versatility, making it a perfect addition to any home.

The built-in Alexa and Chromecast offer easy smart home integration with supported devices, while Airplay and Tap Sound provide seamless connectivity with Android and iOS devices. Versatile connectivity options - including Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and Optical - ensure the device meets all audio needs.

Music Frame WICKED Edition will be sold on Samsung.com and at select retail locations.
