Hisense CanvasTV S7SG series Hisense

Hisense‘s new CanvasTV lineup for 2026 arrives with a simple but unique idea, which is that your TV shouldn’t dominate your living space. 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 looks, as many of the solid display specs make a return.

Combined with a matte anti-glare panel, the effect is meant to feel closer to an actual canvas than a traditional TV. While the design is the highlight here, the QLED panel offers 4K resolution, Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+ support, and much more. It was announced in multiple screen sizes, which include 50 inches, 55 inches, 65 inches, 75 inches, and 85 inches variants.

You also get access to various gaming features like VRR, ALLM, and AMD’s FreeSync Premium support. Hisense’s new picture frame TV runs on Google TV, bringing support for various apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube, along with built-in voice controls.

What else do you get?

To double as a wall art, you get access to more than 1,000 artworks. There’s even a motion sensor, so the TV can automatically display these art pieces when someone enters the room. Other notable features include an integrated 2.0.2 audio system, four HDMI ports, USB 3.0, and USB 2.0.

As of right now, the pricing and availability details are still unknown. But it will likely cost over $1,200. If this sounds a little too steep, you can check out the older Hisense CanvasTV S7N, which is selling with a $350 discount right now.

Your next song could soon carry an AI warning label, and the music industry is all for it
AI isn't the problem anymore. Knowing it's AI is.
AI tag imagined with AI

The music industry's battle with artificial intelligence is entering a new phase. After spending the past two years fighting AI companies in court and pushing back against unauthorized training on copyrighted music, record labels are now turning their attention to something far simpler: transparency. A coalition representing major record labels, artists, and music organizations wants streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music to clearly tell listeners when a song has been created with artificial intelligence.

The proposal, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, comes as AI-generated music becomes increasingly difficult to distinguish from songs created by human artists. Rather than banning AI music altogether, the industry is arguing that listeners deserve to know what they're hearing before they hit play.

If you're in the YouTube Partner Program and you’ve been organizing your videos into playlists while praying that the algorithm and your audience notice, then Shows is the upgrade you've been waiting for.
