Philips 6.5 inch photo frame - JUNK! June 26, 2008 Overall this is a nice frame in terms of brightness and picture quality. Does not deal well with more than 200 or so pictures on the SD card - when you put more than that on the card the frame will freeze after 5 images in slideshow mode. The work around for this was to start the picture frame without the card in then to put the card in after the frame was on...didn't seem to freeze then. We bought 5 for gifts last Christmas for family. 3 of them are now completely dead (2 within 2 weeks, and 1 lasted 6 months), and everyone we gave them to had problems with getting the SD card to work (tried 5 different brands of SD card, it's the frame, not the cards with problems).
Philips customer support is non-existent - they do not respond to emails, and you can't get them by phone. Because of this I WILL NEVER BUY a Philips product again. This one clearly has serious hardware flaws seen in 5/5 of our frames (SD card does not work consistently), with only 2 out of 5 frames actually working after 6 months...Price and packaging are there to lure you in, but this frame is otherwise a huge waste of money unless you want a frame that will only last a couple of weeks (2 dead in 2 weeks, 1 lasted 6 months).
Had to argue with Amazon to accept them back as well...
Great display April 23, 2008 Very easy to use, nice screen display and a nice change of pace from a static picture in a frame.
Love it! February 2, 2008 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Great product! I have had it now for about four months. It works great and has a really nice picture.
Not user friendly enough January 8, 2008 Not user friendly enough. Looked nice and picture quality seemed good, but overall, required more expertise than I had hoped.
No bells and whistles but an excellent product January 8, 2008 I purchased this picture frame for my wife for Christmas because we all love looking at photos and I have 5-6 years worth of digital photos at this point, and it's hard to sit down and look at them all. After seeing another brand on display at a store I decided to do some research on them, as the one at the store had poor resolution and the images looked pixellated. I finally settled on this Philips 6.5" frame (in white) for a few reasons. Although it did not have a remote control, it has the highest resolution (pixels per inch) of anything I saw in this price range, and after all is said and done, picture quality is the most important feature. This unit doesn't play MP3s either, which isn't a problem for me; it does one thing and does it well.
Setup was pretty simple, I didn't even use the CD that came with the frame. I used Picasa to select pictures and resize them to 720x720, copied them to an old 512MB CompactFlash card I had (~250-300 pictures at this size took up about 36 MB on the card), plugged it into the unit and set it to run on slideshow. You can change the order in the slideshow (sequential or random), the duration (I believe the options are 5, 15, 30, or 60 seconds per picture), delete or rotate images right through the UI (which is pretty clean - I had no trouble figuring out how to do stuff without once looking at the instructions). And as I said, the picture quality is great - it's best if you resize your images to fit the dimensions of the screen, and don't let it resize them for you. Picasa makes this easy if you crop to 4x6 and then export at 720.
The unit has an internal battery but you can't use it for very long - this frame will need to be plugged in most of the time. It has an on/off timer so you can set it to turn on at 8 AM and turn off at 10 PM to save electricity (or screen burn-in, or whatever).
It has about 16 MB internal memory, so if you don't have a CF card you can still put some pictures on it. I think I was able to get about 85 or 90 pictures (resized to 720) on the internal memory. To access the internal memory you simply plug it in to your PC via the included USB cable and your PC (Windows 2000 and newer) will show the frame as a removable hard disk. You then just copy the pictures over by dragging them. Unplug it and it's ready to use.
Overall this is a great product and I am very pleased with it.
