Great Gift, Would buy again!!! 
2008-09-29
I bought two photo frames as a gift for each of my parents. It has a sleek black look to it, so it doesn't look cheap at all. Perfect size for a desk or table, not too big, not too small. Easy set-up for me, 30 seconds maybe. Plug in, turn on, put SD card in, it automatically defaults to Options, select View as side show and then Enter. After reading some reviews I was worried about the clarity of the pictures. I was pleasantly surprised. The clarity was really good, nice and bright. My 60 year old father could stand a couple feet away and still see it. I don't know if it makes any difference but I used a digital camera with 7.0 megapixels when taking my pictures. All in all my parents love them. I will definitly look for this one again if I decide to buy one for myself.
Good for the price

I wanted this frame to display my pictures at work. It does what I wanted and looks better than I thought. The pictures look good and it is easy to use.
Good value with a caveat 2008-09-07
This is an economical digital picture frame with a small caveat. First, as if you needed this bit of advice, look for it on sale. A sale price makes it an even better value thsn it already is.
You get what you pay for. The screen is good-sized, but the resolution is a bit on the coarse side. Purists who want super-fine resolution will not be pleased with this unit - but they will pay three times more to get that super-fine resolution. As it is, the resolution on this screen should be adequate for most people. By the way, I found that reducing the images to 800 x 600 provides a nice balance between image quality and image size. Roughly 100 photos required only 36 Megabytes of storage.
There are thirteen transition mode and choosing a random pattern provides an interesting slide show. You can also choose the display time: 3, 5, 10 or 30 seconds.
Viewing angles are somewhat limited, but this isn't designed to provide auditorium presentations. Color reproduction is faithful to the original, so the time you put in on color correcting your photos will not be wasted.
The nasty part concerns image viewing size and a certain inflexibility in presentation.
That's the good news. Here is the drawback.
There are three display modes: Normal, Widescreen and Cinema.
Cinema strikes me as useless: it stretches the left and right sides while trying not to stretch the center to fill the 16:9 screen. The results are grotesque.
The Normal mode displays the original without changing the aspect ratio. Thus, regular photos will occupy only a portion of the 7" screen, which strikes me as something of a waste. So, either crop your photos as close to a 16:9 ratio as you can or live with the black sidebars.
The Widscreen mode enlarges the photo to fill the 16:9 screen. Note the word "enlarges". It lops off parts of the top, bottom, right and left sides and adds a somewhat unappealing stretching on some photos. The close-up you took of Aunt Margaret will add the appearance of about of thirty extra pounds to her face.
Your best bet to optimize the value of the 7" screen is to take the extra time and crop to a 16:9 ratio. Alternatively, you can just leave a lot of space around your main subjects to accomodate the trimming of the image in Widescreen mode.
On the whole, this is an economical digital picture frame withe caveat discussed above. Do look around for this on sale to maximize value.

Good for the price. Pretty hard to get the memory card out without using a tool. Grandma was really happy!

Decent Frame for the price 2008-07-08
We bought this frame as a gift to my wife's grandmother for mother's day this year. Overall the picture quality was decent. Kodak's picture frames have a nicer quality to them in terms of the display clarity. But they are understandably more expensive. My only issue with this frame was that it has no port (USB, et al) to load the pictures from a computer. It only has the memory card slot so you need to user a memory card reader/writer attached to your computer to get the pictures onto that card, then put the card in the frame. Luckily for us, we had a Kodak frame that DOES have the USB port on it, so we loaded the pictures onto that frame, ejected the kingston memory chip from the kodak, and put that chip into this frame before wrapping up the gift. All in all, the recipient was very happy with her gift and aside from trouble with getting the card loaded up with pics, this was a pretty easy gift to put together.
Nice solid product 2008-07-03
I liked this frame. It's very simple and easy to use. One feature I wish it did have is a randomize feature.
Great Slide Show on your table!! 2008-07-02
I was given one of these for a gift and liked it so much I bought one for somebody else. So easy to just insert your memory card from your camera into it and have an instant slideshow on your end table for all to see. The black frame is very nice and matches other picture frames I have on tables.
very objective review 2008-06-11
Just got my photo frame. here's a quick and HONEST review.
PRO: PRICE, EASY TO USE (PLUG AND PLAY), NICE STYLISH FRAME
CON: PICTURE QUALITY (more on this below), frame shuts down when i move it around. at first it was annoying but once i had it on my desk, i didn't need to move it and it wasn't that big of a deal.
now regarding the picture quality, when i first plugged it in, i thought it was pretty bad. I never owned a digital photo frame and didn't come close to my LCD monitor. But i kept looking at it, and it wasn't all that bad. matter of fact, i'd now recommend it to my friends because for the price, it's definately worth it! so save yourself couple hundred $s and spend it on buying a nice new camera.
