Customer Review: Philips 8-Inch Digital Frame - Fantastic!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this as a gift for my grandparents' anniversary. It was really impressive! The display is gorgeous; images look like real photos with bright, clear colors. It can be seen from across the room, or viewed from an angle, with complete clarity. The battery lets you remove the frame from the AC adaptor and hold it to view photos close up.
The most difficult part was determining what size I should save photos on my computer, in order to have them completely fill the frame's screen display. Cropping pictures to 688x468 worked perfectly. The picture is all there, without any black edge around it. The transition effects are very nice--not simply blinking to the next photo, but fading in and out in unique ways to make a nice slide-show presentation.
The interface seemed fairly easy to use, once you get the hang of it. I used a memory card from my digital camera, put it in my photo printer, saved images from my computer to the card, and then plugged the card directly into the frame. I could then transfer the photos to the frame's memory itself, or simply play the photos off the inserted card. You can divide your pictures into different folders on the frame and then select which ones to display in your current show. (I had originally planned to use my thumb drive to transfer photos, but there is no USB port in the frame. There is a cable that allows you to connect the frame directly to a USB port in your computer, but I haven't tried that option.)
I wasn't sure I wanted to spend $200 on a digital frame when there are cheaper ones available, but after reading other reviews and visiting a variety of sites, this seemed like the best choice for a quality product. (Amazon had the best price.) The frame does not have some of the flashier features that others boast, such as the ability to play music, but I just wanted a good screen that displayed images well, offered smooth slide-show transitions, and was simple to use. All in all, I was very impressed with this product. This was an excellent choice!!
