Digital camera reviews of Philips 6.5-Inch Digital Picture Frame (Clear) w/3 Additional Colored Frames
Digital camera Review: Excellent quality and features
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for my husband for his first Father's Day to keep on his desk at work. He loves it. It exceeded my expectations on all counts -- screen resolution, the quality of the frame construction, the attractiveness of the frame, and its features. There are more and better features than I'd expected, and it is easy to use. I rarely rave about a product, but this is a great one.
Some high points:
*Screen resolution - top notch, and you can adjust its brightness
*Frame quality - heavy, feels like a good quality frame. The stand is particularly nice (and weighty)
*The different color frames - "attach" magnetically to the frame for a neat little zip. Not cheap looking, as I'd thought they'd be.
*The slide show feature - you can adjust the speed the photos display. I think the shortest is 1 or 5 seconds, the longest is to keep the same photo displaying. But you can have the photo change every 5, 10 or 30 minutes. Excellent feature!
*Re-sizing the image - the frame does it automatically. When you download photos to the frame, it automatically resizes them to fit. If they are smaller than the frame size, it keeps them as-is with the surrounding background a simple solid (it doesn't re-size/stretch/pixelate them to larger)
*Downloading images - incredibly easy. By USB, an easy-to-use dialog box appears on your computer screen; you drag and drop whichever photos you'd like to use. It re-sizes as they download
*The slideshow feature - you can set it to display the photos randomly or sequentially
*You can manually scroll through the images on the frame (show all your photos to someone, or just look at them all in a row)
*You can use the buttons on the frame itself to change settings or to delete an image, etc.
*An additional SD card will increase the memory capacity, but its 16 mb holds more photos than I'd anticipated
*battery back-up (walk around with the frame)
All in all, far greater than anticipated and well worth the price. The quality of the frame and the resolution of the images would be worth it alone. The features are just a fantastic bonus; that it is good-looking is even better. I wholly recommend this frame.
Digital camera Review: Excellent screen clarity
Summary: 5 Stars
Before I purchased this digital frame, I did plenty of research online to find the best quality product in this space.
This frame had received positive reviews, and I'm happy to report that my experience has been excellent as well.
This frame has a very clear, clean picture, and I'd definitely recommend it to other customers.
Digital camera Review: Fantastic Picture Quality
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this for my wife for Christmas and it performs magnificently. Pictures are easy to load and the on-board capacity is more than ample. Best of all, the picture quality is tremendous. So many digital frames turn great pictures into washed out garbage, but this is very realistic. It's a little pricey, but you won't be let down.Digital camera Review: Fantastic gift for workaholics...
Summary: 4 Stars
I spend a significant amount of my time sitting at my desk at work. My in-laws and my wife got together to give me this digital photo frame for Christmas. At first, I wasn't so sure I'd care about it, but now... it's the best gift I've ever received. I get to look at my infant son all day long, my co-workers are always oohing and aahing about him and about this frame, and now several of them want one (frame, not son) as well. The controls are a bit clunky and not terribly intuitive, but the on-screen display _does_ show you an icon for each button, so if you pay close attention it's possible to navigate the menus to get the frame to do what you want. Windows XP just recognized the device immediately and I copied images to it like it was a flash drive, because... that's what it is!
Anyway, bottom line... this was the best Christmas present possible for me. I hope the person you get this frame for will be as happy.
Digital camera Review: Finally, a Not Disappointing Digital Picture Frame
Summary: 5 Stars
The Philips Digital Picture Frame deserves its fine reviews. In fact, it's the first picture frame that lives up to the potential of the product category. I've found other picture frames to be disappointing. Not so with this frame. It works well on many levels; it's attractive, delivers a bright and detailed image, has a satisfying user interface with intelligent options, even the packaging is unusually clever. Nice job Philips.
If you value a quality product, this frame will not disappoint.
