Default Samsung TV's Ambient mode - TV ad

It suggests that the TV can put on its display, a copy of the wallpaper
hidden behind and by the TV, so that the TV became less visible - if I
am understanding the ad properly? That suggests the TV will need to be
on and operating at least its display all the time - Might not that be a
tremendous waste of power and to be discouraged?


Supposedly about 30% of the normal operating power. However they include
occupancy sensors, and so switch to standby (0.4W) when they figure no
one is about to look at them.
