Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Philips 6.5-Inch Digital Picture Frame (Clear) w/3 Additional Colored Frames
Customer Review: Good frame without bells and whistles
Summary: 4 Stars
I like this frame because it just does what I want a digital photo frame to do, which is to be attractive and show good quality photographs! It doesn't play music or videos, or have a remote, or offer wireless connectivity, all of which I think are unnecessary. A photo frame is not supposed to occupy all of your attention for hours at a time! It's a decoration! That said, I only give it four stars because the manual and the user interface are both fairly poor. I'm a computer guy, but I found the user interface difficult to understand. For example, why should a triangle pointing to the right mean "Enter slideshow" but a curving arrow mean "Toggle between album and settings"? I would be afraid that non-computer people would have real problems changing the slide show speed or transition style.Customer Review: Not nearly as versatile as advertized
Summary: 2 Stars
My experience seems to be different than that of other reviewers. Maybe I have overlooked something or not understood the product's extremely scanty user instructions.
The 'frame' displays a very nice slideshow of pictures when I insert my camera's XD memory card. However, when I hook it up to my computer with the included connector nothing happens. The "instructions" provide no guidance whatever regarding the method whereby pictures may be extracted from the computer and put into the 'frame's' memory.
So, it seems my only option is to download pictures from my computer back into my camera's memory and then shift that memory card to the frame; a task I do not want to do as a matter of routine.
I conclude that the frame is nice for displaying recently taken photos that happen to still be on my camera's memory card, and other than that it is simply a piece of junk that I will store and forget in a drawer somewhere.
Customer Review: Great Frame!

My husband bought this for me as a Mothers Day gift and it's been great. I brought it with me to work and everyone that stops by my desk comments on how great it is. The resolution is amazing. It's definitely worth the money.Customer Review: Should be an excellent product!

I bought it as a gift for my friend who was highly satisfied with it. I did not use it myself, though.Customer Review: Great product - easy to use - no problems
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased three of these frames as gifts for my parents and in-laws, and each recipient was able to figure out how to use them on their own. I pre-loaded them with pictures, which took longer than I expected, but it wasn't an absurdly long wait. The quality of the images is excellent and (now four weeks later) all of the frames appear to work properly, which was all I really cared about.
