Customer Reviews
nice picture, poor features PROS - When I bought this frame, it was the lowest-priced 800x600 resolution frame. Other frames had lower resolutions and really made pictures look blocky. The resolution on this frame is pretty sharp and there are brightness and color controls to make the pictures look very nice.
CONS - The menu system isn't very intuitive. The matte is really plastic and has a cheap look to it. The slideshow speeds are slow, medium or fast - all of which are too fast to appreciate the pictures and the constant changing is distracting when sitting on a desk. So I thought I would try to just display 1 picture. The only way to do this is to pause the slideshow, which keeps an ugly bright blue pause (||) symbol on the screen. The slide show is always in the same order and there's no way to randomize it. I tried to email the manufacturer using the support email on their web site - the message was returned as undeliverable because the email address doesn't exist. I did not try calling their support number. Consumer Reports says that SmartParts has gone out of business. The USB cord is on the short side. I tried 2 other longer usb cords and they caused the frame to hang and disconnect from the computer.
OTHER - I didn't try the software, mp3 or video abilities of the frame. If you just want an inexpensive frame that does a somewhat quick slide show of good looking photos, this would suit your needs. If you really want to show off your photos and have some flexibility in how they're displayed, this frame is not for you. Be aware that manufacturer support may not exist.
Caution! I had issues with getting this frame to work - it was DOA out of the box, but not from Amazon. I returned it. That was six months ago or so.
Upon further investigation recently, I learned that Smartparts Products is out of business - they ceased operations last April or so. This is a total surprise to me since the frames are still quite common on Amazon. If you can pick up a working one at a great price on Amazon, and Amazon will replace defective items, you are probably ok. But beware that there is no one (from anything I can find) to honor your warranty. The Smartparts Products website is still up and running and there is no indication of the fact that they are not in business. I'm leery given what happened - there are more than a few other reviews referencing defective frames for Smartparts Products.
I'd suggest you look elsewhere. I am considering the Pandigital 7". Good luck!
nice gift for my mom bought this for a gift for my mom. took it out of the box to load pictures of her grandkids on it. Easy to use (after figuring out the software is actually ON the frame, just had to open the software that showed up as an external drive. the nice part about this is that ANY computer you attach it to will be able to load the software. nice... Holds lots of pictures, easy to use and an excellent picture on the frame. I am in tech, but have not purchased a digital frame before and found this easy to use so good for any user, very nice looking and am happy with the purchase.
