We live in the era of the lifestyle TV. These thoughtfully designed TVs are meant to look like a portrait, complete with a frame around the screen and, in most cases, a matte-style screen, which adds an oil painting-like texture to the pictures on display.

Brands have seen great success selling these artful TVs, with Samsung's version (dubbed The Frame) leading the pack in popularity. Unfortunately, their elevated design tends to be priced at a premium. That's why I'm laser-focused on Amazon Prime Day lifestyle TV deals — it's a great opportunity for our readers to save on such premiums.

And, if you're fast enough, you can swing a killer deal on Hisense's frame-forward lifestyle TV before Prime Day officially starts. Right now, you can get a 50-inch Hisense S7 Canvas TV for just $749 at Amazon — a full 42% off its usual price.

If you've been intrigued by lifestyle TVs but hesitant about their relatively high price tags, the discounted Hisense S7 Canvas TV might be the set you've been waiting for. It's adorned with an elegant, replaceable, teak-style frame, its screen features a matte finish, and it offers an entire Art Gallery for displaying works of art when not in use.

Its 50-inch screen is rather modest, but folks with smaller living spaces will appreciate the versatility of its size. As mentioned, the S7 Canvas TV is adorned with a replaceable, Teak-style frame, which allows it to nestle into a wall full of paintings or photographs.

Another feature that will help the Canvas TV find a home among your artwork is the wall-mounting hardware that Hisense has included in the box. Because of how the Canvas TV and its mount are designed, there's no gap between the TV and the wall.

The S7 Canvas TV may be designed for style points above all else, but it still comes stocked with plenty of features: It's built around the Google TV smart platform (one of my preferred streaming platforms), so you're covered if you don't want to plug an extra device into your portrait-like TV. It also supports Dolby Vision, a popular, enhanced HDR format found across streaming platforms.

If you're the type of person who values the aesthetic qualities of a TV over fancy features and eye-popping performance, the S7 might be your cup of tea. I suspect it'll be a high-selling TV once Prime Day officially kicks off, so getting ahead of the crowd could be a wise move.
