Customer Reviews

Why are people so critical of this item - it's superb!
After much time spent reviewing websites and reading personal comments on different photo frames, I decided to bite the bullet and buy this 10.2" frame from Amazon for my sister. I paid £90 (quite a good deal) bearing in mind that it's now £137.33! The problem with reading personal reviews is that people either don't have a clue what they're doing or they're ultra critical. Correct, this is a widescreen (16:9) aspect screen. Photos are generally taken in 3:2 or 4:3 but a lot of cameras these days can take widescreen pictures (e.g. Panasonic compacts). Yes, the battery may only last an hour or an hour and a half. How long do you expect it to last for? You don't run your LCD monitor/TV at home on batteries now do you? The screen is an actual 10.2", unlike my 8" Linx which measures 7.3" on the diagonal (it dwarfs my 8" in fact). This is one thing to be wary of when buying digital photo frames. Some specify the frame, others the screen diagonal. This screen is very large, with a great resolution (800x480). Contrast and brightness are very good (similar to my 8" one). Even when looking really close, the picture is still sharp. I find it strange that people whinge about trivial things like menus and cropping pictures. What do you expect to do with your pictures taken on 8+ megapixel cameras? This screen is only 0.384 megapixels! Of course you will need to crop them to make them look perfect. Just get your pictures and plug 'em in! I used an SD stick and found the pictures to look great. Neither did it wipe them! This frame has slots for XD, MMC, MS and SD. You can also plug in USB devices too. Realistically, how much time do you actually spend on the menu... This device comes with a handy little remote too which I think is much more useful than getting a frame with touch controls on the device itself. For the money I think this item is superb. I don't think I could have got as good a frame for the money I paid. I was also looking at a 7" Toshiba TekBright frame for £80 from PC World and I'm glad I went for this one for the extra £10! Stop pondering on all these silly, over critical reviews and just go for one, you won't regret it!

Brilliant
Brought this for my parents at Christmas, with very little setting up got it up and running didn't have to resize any photos, plays video and music really well, all in all very happy

Dont listen to the tech phobics!
This is a great product. The 16:9 display is great. There are loads of options to change display modes. Interface on it's side is what you would get from most large LCDs, the little remote fits nicely behind the frame when wall mounted. This is a little TV with Card reader. The built in rechargeable battery lasts for a good 1.5hrs. The neon blue light on the side is not over powering and turns a subtle red when in standby. I was impressed with build qaulity, the sound is loud and bass strong when playing family movies from all sources.

I don't think the reviewers who gave this a low rating where aware of all of its features or must have paid a lot more than the £109 that I did. I didn't have to read the manual, its operation is straight forward. But looking through the manual at the mo, its well presented.
I am a fussy gadget freak... and this is value for money!
