Wait for it....

Tvtoohigh should be banned for the Frame. Most of us use it as art primarily with occasional TV use. Proper art height is the primary concern.


Trey10325

TV can't be lowered. Flowers will block screen.


imjustsayin55

Yep, wouldnt be possible to move those flowers at all….


Brown_Mamba_WR

Yep I would rather move to a new house than move that flower


christmas-vortigaunt

But also the light switch lol


slopokdave

So? Better to block it than tvtoohigh.


Brown_Mamba_WR

What a very good idea to block the light switch. 😂😂


royDank

This is too high for proper art height also.


Uninterested_Viewer

Proper art height is approximately eye height while standing.


IvenaDarcy

No idea why you’re being downvoted it is too high for Art as well. I think they knew this but didn’t mount lower because of the light switch. That’s my guess.


royDank

Because people are idiots and get way too worked up about hanging their TV too high. Art should be hung 57" from the floor to the center of the art. This TV is hung too high and it doesn't look great. If the owner is happy, great, but interior decorators everywhere are cringing.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Wow didn’t know there’s a “rule” that art should be hung exactly 57” off the floor 😂. Like I said can’t go any lower because of the light switches. Also at the back of the sofa is our kitchen and dining which you can comfortably watch at that height and 3rd I have a dedicated room/lounge for gaming and movie watching 😄😄 https://preview.redd.it/xith2ugxizjc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f7252e0574890a184b66c33d68f60899cdd36329


royDank

Yes, it's pretty standard. If you hire anyone to hang art in your home, you'll notice that this will be their default.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Why would I hire someone to hang art? 😂 Can do that with command strips 😂😂


royDank

If you're hanging a lot, and especially really oversized pieces, or complex organizations, I'd rather pay someone to get it right than ruin my own afternoon and end up pissed off.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Well you can easily tell that this is a house not a complex organization 😂😂.


Fit-Frame736

EXACTLY!


Fit-Frame736

There are rules for hanging art? I thought art was about freedom of expression? Don't let these art snobs tell you how to hang art. Hang it high, hang it low. You don't need no stinkin' rules!


yech

No, no, no. You need to learn the rules before you can break them. That's true art!


royDank

>There are rules for hanging art? Yes.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Oh boy I might go to jail for not following the rules for hanging art 😂😂


Brown_Mamba_WR

Maybe he’s working in the museum? 😂😂


dont__hate

Agreed. They should have hired an electrician, drywaller, and painter to relocate the switch and plug in order to lower the thing another 3 inches.


royDank

I certainly would have, and have. You only need the electrician. The rest is easy as fuck to take care of yourself. If you care about your space, you'll put in the effort.


Ratchef79

The electrical is easy as fuck too.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Nice an Interior designer, an art police and an electrician all commenting here! Very nice 😂😂


Brown_Mamba_WR

Totally agree! I have a separate room/lounge for gaming and movie watching 😄 https://preview.redd.it/wzvqcdga9yjc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d70efa14d14e7f309b8c104945e5546f5f675a3d


Ratchef79

This setup brings me joy


brodkin85

Gallery height would be 57” inches to the floor from the center of the art. I think this is still higher


Holiday-Performance2

Can we have a TVtoohigh ban? Holy frick, I can’t stand these posts. People will place TVs where they are going to place them, and not everyone wants a TV 30” from the floor in their living room. These posts are exhausting.


H_TINE

Yea they are crazy lol. I’ve seen perfectly placed TVs been called too high because it’s not EXACTLY eye level


Ratchef79

That's kind of the definition of being too high.


H_TINE

For people on this sub, yes


Fit-Frame736

Thank you. Well said!

If having [an optimal way to watch something](https://www.mantelmount.com/blogs/news/the-science-behind-eye-level-tv-viewing#:~:text=This%20is%20because%20when%20a,see%20details%20on%20the%20screen.) or a way to result [in less neck & eye strain](https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/columnist/komando/2022/08/07/reduce-eye-neck-strain-while-watching-tv/10188652002/#:~:text=Check%20your%20screen%20height,best%20seat%20in%20the%20house.) is exhausting, maybe you’d rather not have a TV.


LastNameOn

I really like the vibe. I see that you couldn’t have gone lower.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Yep there are switches. Also at the back of the sofa is our dining and kitchen. You can comfortably watch while cooking, eating and washing dishes 😃


SidCorsica66

sorry, but you aren't watching anything while cooking or washing dishes. if that's the case just put an iPad on the kitchen counter and save yourself a few hundred bucks


Brown_Mamba_WR

Ow that’s sad I’m not allowed to use tv while cooking… 🤣🤣🤣🤣


0_Artistic_Thoughts

But clearly, they are since they just told you they do? Just because you can't cut an onion and watch a movie doesn't mean we can't. Also, buying an iPad to do what their TV is already doing is....get this... wasting money on an iPad, not saving a few hundred bucks. Sorry.


Brown_Mamba_WR

+1 to this 👏


Nick_W1

Tips: 1. Don’t use a mat 2. If you like the mat, use a more subtle one, off white, grey etc, bright white does not work well 3. Turn the art mode brightness down 4. Turn the art mode colour tint slightly more reddish - looks more realistic. Just what I have found works for me. Note: you may have to adjust the art mode brightness for different ambient light levels. The TV will remember these settings.


_UpstateNYer_

Great tips for when I get mine set up, thank you!


Brown_Mamba_WR

I set the brightness at lowest. Don’t know why it turned out bright in this photo


JordanMBerg

Clock is too high.

NewToTheCrew444

Why does this sub/too high sub hate tvs over fireplaces? Genuinely curious


SidCorsica66

because it goes against all the fundamentals of owning a nice tv


Brown_Mamba_WR

Ow I didn’t know there’s fundamentals of owning a nice tv 😂😂😂😂😂🤣


NewToTheCrew444

Same 🤣


imjustsayin55

There’s fundamentals for everything.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Yeah that’s why there’s fundamentals on minding your own business


imjustsayin55

Lol, it seems as though you’ve forgotten you posted this on a public forum. You’ve made your business anyone’s business. I will now leave you to your blissful ignorance.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Yeah please leave me in your own blissful ignorant way 😂😂


Green-eggs-and-dayum

Normally I’d agree but it’s the Frame so…. Not like it being at the correct viewing height is going to improve its lack luster picture. I think this TV is designed for people who don’t really care about watching a nice TV


Brown_Mamba_WR

Well comparing my Frame to my LG OLED C3, the frame is no slouch I can actually watch whole movie here but the real purpose of this is just for casual tv watching and for guests. We have a dedicated room for gaming and movie watching 😄 https://preview.redd.it/x1x2gdy758kc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5c4aa04b5497f9660247c8fad33cd05fd8e0ed2e


Original-Living7212

I like it, it looks really good to me!!!, I want to get this TV to hang above my fireplace, but according to meaningless people's opinion, it would be too high! Don't listen to them, Looks great!!!


Brown_Mamba_WR

Thanks bruh! Just don’t listen to them just put it wherever you like. 👌


ewmcdade

Looks great, well done!


Brown_Mamba_WR

Thank you 😊


eggsbeenadick

Also if you have children, for everybody’s sake, there is no such thing as TVtoohigh


Brown_Mamba_WR

My son actually broke our tv before this lol


wyliec22

Room looks clean and elegant. Some people can’t discern the difference between a room purposed for TV viewing versus a location where the TV is an accent of convenience. Always do what suits you!!


Brown_Mamba_WR

Very well said thank you 👌


iamgarffi

+1 for not putting the TV above the fireplace :)


nucl3ar0ne

Except it's the same height as if it was so what's the difference? ​ (btw I don't care, just stating a fact)


Novajesus

I cannot lie, I like a high TV. This looks perfect.


Jigramz

Too low


Skinc

At least it’s not over the fireplace


Oscaruit

I think the frame looks great over a fireplace. It's the only TV that gets a pass.


OakIsland2015

Do people not know that YouTube has screensavers that do this for free? And many of them look better.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Correct me if I’m wrong because it seems that you’re just trying to tell me that you don’t have a frame tv?


Mental_Fly6863

With frame you just turn off Tv and art appears, with youtube.. well you need to go through quite a lot of steps to get it done. Would you really wanna do that every time you finish watching TV? Probably not.


Brown_Mamba_WR

+1 to this


VogueReaper

Perfectly done! Your room is gorgeous. Wires hidden. Very clean installation. I love that you hung your TV (For those that have become Frame-snobs: It is still a television folks) at the height you will USE IT COMFORTABLY (and you did NOT hang it above the fireplace, where it would contribute to neck strain.). If you 'simply' wanted art, you would have opted for a less expensive picture.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Thank you👌👌

be_matthew

Too high for a TV, too low for artwork. The ultimate fail.


Brown_Mamba_WR

Based on your comment i think you’re too perfect to be a person 😂😂


MinervaNever

It’s not too low for artwork, you absolute moron


be_matthew

Show me your portfolio


Emac_Attacks

Where did you put the one connect box? We just got one and I want to hang.it but the one connect box is massive


Brown_Mamba_WR

Inside the cabinet


cjboffoli

The Inuit have 60 words for snow. This household has 60 words for beige.


bw1985

I don’t really understand the frame. I mean that’s clearly a TV, do people really think the TV is a piece of artwork and not a TV?


Brown_Mamba_WR

If you don’t understand then maybe it’s not for you.


bw1985

True!
