Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Philips 9-Inch Digital Picture Frame (Metal)
Customer Review: Absolutely wonderful !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I have bought two of these (one for us and one for her parents). The screen is extremely clear and bright. The size is perfect to view your digital photos. It is simple to hook-up to a computer and download pictures from a digital camera or a scanner. With a 1 GB SD flash memory card we have about one thousand pictures loaded and plenty of room for more pictures. It's great to see all your pictures easily instead on them being put away in a photo album or stored on your computer doing nothing. We love the different transitions in the slide show mode that are available. We also like being able to unplug from the AC adapter and sit down and look through them one at a time at our own pace. The rechargeable battery lasts about one hour. The built-in clock allows us to automatically turn the picture frame on and off at set times.
This digital picture frame is a winner. If you have a digital camera then you will absolutely love this. It also makes a great gift for parents and grandparents. Just load your family pictures both past and recent and enjoy the memories.
Customer Review: More than I expected.
Summary: 5 Stars
I did a lot of research on these frames, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. I got it for a present for my technologically-challenged mother. The intuitive buttons are a snap to learn and make this frame SO much nicer than other frames. There is a joystick and 2 smaller buttons right at the location that your right fingers hold the frame. All of the functionality can be done with this. The screen looks awesome - nice and bright, and adjustable brightness of course. The transitions are cool too. This is definitely a superior product to most of the other frames. I used a 1gb SD card with no issues - the simple software resizes the images automatically and puts them in the albums you create. So you don't have to worry about resizing each individual picture or anything. The frame also has auto-tilt like an iphone; so if you stand it upright, the next pictures will display that way.
The internal battery lasts quite some time and is a great feature. Overall I love this product and would buy them all day long if I had the money!
Customer Review: Brilliant pictures, just be patient when transferring photos
Summary: 5 Stars
I have this for more than a month now. Installed a 256 MB SD card, currently loaded about 800 photos, and configured my albums based on trips and occasions. I set the photo frame on slide show mode and with daily auto on and off settings.
1 week ago, I bought another product, Pandigital (7 in) w/ 128 MB built in memory. Philips has far better picture display where Pandigital has an acceptable photo display. When you look closely or stare at the photos, you will immediately see that Philips does not have any of the grainy reproduction. It also has elegant slide show transitions; Pandigital needs to work on their transitions.
You just have to be patient when transferring files from your PC to the photo frame, I find myself hitting the reset button more than I really would prefer. This process doesn't seem harm any of the pictures. This process can be alleviated by just having your pictures displayed straight or transferred from your card. I just chose the PC method for easier management of what I want to be transferred.
Customer Review: very happy with the product
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this Phillips digital frame for my wife; we're both very happy with it.
The pictures are clear with vivid color.
After finally understanding the directions, it's very easy to transfer ones photographs from a computer to the frame.
The slide show feature is attractive with a variety of different transitions from one photograph to another.
The only quirk I've encountered is in programming the date. The frame won't acknowledge a date beyond the 12th of any month. Frankly, I find that problem to be insignificant; I'm not using the frame as a calander.
The frame, itself, is very stylish and appears to be very sturdy.
I spent time researching other frames at a variety of prices. I have to say that one should spend the extra money.
Overall, this Phillips frame is tremendous buy and worth every penny.
Customer Review: Amazing product...worth every penny
Summary: 5 Stars
Having purchased three inferior products at [...]respectively, I must say this frame at [..]is a keeper. Its everything I was looking for in a digital frame, and a few things I was not. The color and clarity are amazing, there are plenty of options for the slideshow, and it even knows when you have turned it on its end in the middle of the slideshow, and re-orients the picture appropriately! It was very easy and intuitive to set up, and within minutes I had 600 pictures loaded on to a SD card and ready to go. (The 1 GB card cost me [..]at Staples, and it is only half full!) I just unplugged it to take it to lunch with a friend and show her, and the battery worked just great. She is buying one for her husband for father's day, and now I guess I'm going to have to buy one too. Really, the only problem with this product is that you are going to want to buy one for everyone you know.
