Customer Reviews

Replace your photo album
Researched Consumer Reports to see which digital photo frames they rated highly and SmartParts frames did well. After reading several reviews, I decided I definitely wanted one with at least 800x600 resolution (higher the better). Drew the picture size on a piece of paper for 7 inch, 8 inch, 9 inch, 10 inch and 15 inch frames and decided that the 10 inch frame was the right size - the 7 and 8 inch ones are not much better than a 3x5 and 4x6 inch prints, respectively so they aren't that big. This was a gift for an 85 year old so we needed something big but not huge. The 15 inch frames were just too big and finding a spot to place them would be difficult.

The frame functions very well - picture quality is excellent and loading it was very easy; however, I recommend you not bother using the software that was bundled with it - that does not work well at all. I simply hooked it up to my PC using the enclosed USB cable and copied photos from my PC directly to the memory in the frame (drag and drop). I have Windows XP and had previously downloaded from MicroSoft, a program that resizes photos into one of four selectable sizes. I used this ImageResizer to resize all the photos I was moving to the frame to save space on the memory card. One piece of advice, do not resize all the way down to 800x600. I found that using 1028x768 made the pictures look better. If you install an additional memory card in the frame then you really do not need to resize the photos.

I have not yet tried to use all the additional features like adding music to go with the slideshow or viewing video clips. For viewing photos, this product works great - you can replace all your photo albums with it.

Beautiful product, works well
I bought this frame about a month ago and was reminded that I wanted to post a positive review on it when guests to my house were oohing and aahing about it yesterday.

I bought the frame for display in my family room after doing a fair bit of research. First of all, some of the specs on this appealed to me. The 800x600 resolution with the 4x3 aspect ratio were what I was looking for. The compatibility with different media - particularly USB flash drives, is convenient, and I liked the fact that I could upload pictures into the frame's internal memory. There is ample memory (maybe more than the 256MB advertised) - I have 120 pictures uploaded into the frame and there is room for much more.

Visually, the cherry frame is very appealing and makes this look like a real wooden picture frame fitting in with our other furniture. The size worked out very well; an 8 inch frame was smaller than what I was looking for (I have that size on my desk at work), and the ones that were 12-13 inches (and up) seemed too big - 10 inches is a good size as its easily visible across the room (picture is about a 6" x 8"). The contrast and color is excellent.

From a usability perspective, one thing that could be better is the intuitiveness of the remote control (for example you have to hit the Exit button a couple of times to be able to navigate to the setup menu) but the UI is reasonably responsive. Uploading photos onto the frame isn't terribly quick, but it's manageable unless you're going to constantly be doing it (in which case I'd just recommend you used a memory card that you modified by plugging it into a desktop or laptop).

Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase.

Worked great and then died
I bought this as a gift for fathers day. The company handled the order well, and the product arrived in good condition. The product worked well at first, but died after a couple days use.
