Transform your home into a one-of-a-kind karaoke and entertainment hub with Samsung Electronics and Stingray Karaoke. Owners of select 2025 Samsung AI-powered Smart TVs will be receiving a free six-month trial of Stingray Karaoke, giving them access to more than 100,000 licensed songs that include today’s chart-topping hits, as well as classics.

Any karaoke system isn’t complete without a microphone, and while Samsung didn’t bundle one with their Smart TVs, fret not, for the answer is right in the palm of the user’s hands. The Samsung SmartThings app can turn any smartphone into a microphone, bringing a high-quality karaoke experience into any home. The SmartThings app ensures that the voice is “perfectly mixed in real-time” and has no sound delays.

Maya Harris, VP & Head of Strategic Partnerships for Samsung’s TV & Mobile Services, stated, “Samsung Smart TVs are dynamic entertainment hubs providing tremendous value and access to an ever-expanding ecosystem of experiences. The seamless mobile microphone integration with SmartThings is a brand-new innovation that allows trailblazing partners like Stingray to push the boundaries of interactive entertainment on Tizen, delivering even more immersive and accessible experiences that bring people together in new ways.”

President, Co-Founder, and CEO of Stingray Karaoke, Eric Boyko, said, “Partnering with an industry leader in Samsung has allowed us to create a unique and accessible karaoke experience that takes entertainment technology to new heights. As we continue to innovate and expand our offerings, we remain dedicated to delivering exceptional innovations to audiences worldwide.”

Stingray Karaoke on Samsung Smart TVs is powered by Tizen OS. The free trial offer is redeemable from the day of purchase until December 31, 2025. To redeem the free Stingray Karaoke offer, simply select the Samsung Daily+ icon on the Samsung TV Smart Hub and launch the app. Owners of 2023 and 2024 Samsung Smart TVs may also avail of a one-month free trial.
