... If it weren't for a discounted price below half the MSRP, I would give this frame 1 1/2 stars out of 5.
THE GOOD:
Blue-Tooth capable. HUGE screen size. Even for a large 14" screen size, the 1280 X 800 resolution is remarkable. Great quality frame - the best I've seen.
TV input - the speakers are ok - it seems odd, but I could see this used as a TV monitor.
Zoom function is nice.
With properly formatted pictures (1280X800 native) the internal memory alone will hold well over 750 pictures (use a free shareware program to resize and crop your photos to the native resolution)
THE BAD:
The remote IS REQUIRED to control the frame's features.
Remote is very finicky - button presses don't always register.
Menu navigation is not very intuitive.
Slide show frame indexing is limited to 5 sec, 10 sec, 30 sec, 60 sec and 1 hour. (nothing between 60 seconds and 1 hour?!)
THE UGLY:
Viewing angle- the viewing angle is a minuscule 100° (or less). Great LCD displays have a 170° to 178° viewing angle. Descent ones are above 150°.
The contrast ratio is only 400:1
The picture, although 1280X800 pixels, is not very sharp out of the box. Cranking it up to the highest sharpness setting helped, but it's still a little soft.
The display has one of the new style highly reflective glass surfaces like that found on new lap tops. In a room with a lot a windows and florescent lights, it needs to be positioned just right or you won't be able to see the displayed image.
If you can position this where you'll be seated looking straight at it (like my scenario - at work on a desk) and can get it for half the MSRP, DO IT NOW!! If not, I'd pass and get something with a better viewing angle - this one is terrible.
