Samsung SPF-71E Highlights

120MB internal memory
Faster, easier access to your photos is enabled by 120MB of built-in memory. This allows you to store a selection of your favorite memories to be displayed as a slideshow or on their own. The hidden SD card slot allows you to add extra memory to the Photoframe for a more in-depth experience.

Color that suits you
Be enchanted by the soft, organic contours of the SPF-71E. Its ergonomic elegance and slim, slender style make your photos sparkle and shine. Available in white, pink or black, the frame attracts attention to the pictures that you treasure and expresses the exquisite beauty of every magical moment.

Smooth operation
The beauty of the ball hinge stand is that its graceful, gentle movement is so smooth and soft. With a fluid motion you can position the frame in any way that you choose, giving you the freedom to enjoy your photos in the way that suits you best.

Seamless memories
A wide variety of slideshow options allows you to express your creative side. Simply select the slideshow that suits you and watch your photos become a seamless show of treasured memories. What’s more, if you turn the SPF-71E off then turn it on again; it automatically remembers where it was in the sequence and resumes play.

Enjoy a wide variety of slide show options

Time never looked so good
With two clock functions the SPF-71E can be used as a Photoframe, a Photoframe with digital time superimposed over the photo, or as a retro-style analog clock. The automatic clock turn-off feature is an efficient method of power saving that will reduce electricity bills and energy consumption.

Frame comes with two clock functions

Auto-resize optimization
The intelligent Auto-resizing function gives you more space to save your memories. By downsizing images and displaying them at their optimum resolution, more photos can be stored in the 120MB internal memory, giving you extended slideshows and more pleasure.

Customer Reviews

Great digital frame, very easy to use!
I searched websites trying to find an easy to use photo frame with 4:3 ratio and good resolution. I found this one at a store and thought I'd try it out. I was worried it would be difficult to set up given that I have a Mac computer. This wasn't the case at all. I hooked it up to the computer with the USB cable, highlighted the photos I wanted on the frame and drug them to the frame's icon on my desktop. So easy.
The only thing I didn't like (and it could just be my camera, 5 megapixel) is that the pictures that are vertical were not as clear as the horizontal pictures. Overall, I think it is a good frame and easy to use.

Excellent Frame - 8" Non-wireless Version
The 8" versions are the only ones with a 4:3 aspect ratio. This is the ideal and native ratio for 99+% of digital cameras. Only very few take photos in 16:9 widescreen, and taking the time to convert and crop your 4:3 photos into 16:9 would no doubt be tedious. Generally the 16:9 models are more expensive but LESS expensive for manufacturers to make because may other consumer electronic devices require 7-10" widescreen/16:9 LCDs while not many use 4:3 anymore. Don't be fooled by the 16:9 unless you know for sure you need it!

The resolution is a very sharp 800x600, and the contrast ratio is a very respectable 400:1. I researched several different brands and models before finding this great frame. It has a nice smooth exterior case that doesn't look cheap, isn't too flimsy and isn't too thick.

The images are nice and sharp, and like I said before, the native 4:3 resolution is a plus. It has 1GB of memory built-in, which is enough for plenty of pictures, but it is also expandable via a multitude of flash card slots. SD is extremely cheap, and Amazon sells a 16GB one for about $25-30 (probably way more than most need :))

File transfers are easy, and like another reviewer said, the frame works equally well on Windows and Mac machines. I'm not sure about Linux, but I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard.

My ideal frame would be thinner, higher resolution and contrast ratio, and larger diagonal screen size for less money... but that is not likely to happen for another few years. However, at the price, this is one of the best, if not the best, digital photo frame you can buy

It's widescreen....
Apparently I should have done a little math on the resolution on this one before I trusted the picture and other reviews. I watched different deals on-line for about a week only considering non-widescreen frames.

Note: for those of you who don't know, widescreen frames are a bad idea for the consumer and a good idea for the manufacturer. A widescreen with equal diagonal measurement to a 4:3 screen has a smaller surface area, therefore cheaper to produce. However, since your pictures aren't widescreen there are back bars on either side of your photos unless you spend some time cropping and/or skewing each one of your photos. So, the actual viewing area is pretty close to 7". However, the picture is shown the same size as if you had a 4:3 screen at about 5 3/4".

Imagine my disappointment then to have my frame show up (very quickly) and when I pull it out of the box... it's widescreen. Although I wish this were more apparent in the product description I guess I should have been more skeptical before I bought the thing.

Other than the widescreen thing it's fairly straight forward to use. The built-in auto resize isn't super awesome. You'll probably want to resize and crop everything in photoshop or gimp before you put them on there (lots of fun if you're into that sort of thing).

Bottom line: It's pretty much a 5 3/4" screen, not 7"...
