Review: GiiNii Artforme 7 inch Digital Picture Frame

Written on Jan 18, 2010 by Malcolm Reynolds and filed under Featured, GiiNii, Reviews

One of the side effects to reviewing many different digital picture frames is that I start to expect more and more from a typical picture frame. The latest digital media frames handle photos, video, music, and stream content via Wi-Fi. That’s why I was amazed to see the affordable GiiNii ArtForme Digital Picture Frame (model GN-705W) keeps things surprisingly simple. This picture frame is just a picture frame … nothing more and nothing less.

Review: Pandigital PanTouch Clear 8″ (PAN8000DWPCF1)

Written on Dec 11, 2009 by MKowalski and filed under Pandigital, Reviews

Not so long ago, if you wanted a touch screen in your digital photo frame, you had to settle for the fact that said frame would be bigger and bulkier than its touch-free brethren. As a rule, it was reasonable to expect that a frame would either have lots of novel tech, or that it would have the sleek look of a traditional photo frame – but finding both in the same package was usually too much to ask.

Pandigital is just the latest manufacturer to buck this trend in 2009 with the launch of the ultra-thin, touch-screen equipped Pantouch Clear series. With gift giving season upon us, could the Pantouch Clear be the sleek melding of form and function that you’ve been waiting for?

Review: HP sd828 8″ Smart Wi-Fi Display

Written on Dec 8, 2009 by Thomas S. and filed under HP, Reviews

When digital photo frames first came out they were basically designed to view pictures. These days to set picture frames apart, manufacturers are starting to add web integration features like streaming Internet radio. Instead of just showing off pictures on your desk at work, it can effectively replace your small radio too. For a bit less than 150 bucks HP has the 8” Smart Wi-Fi Display (sd828) that can play movies, listen to online radio, play music, and of course view digital images.

Review: Sony DPF-V1000

Written on Nov 19, 2009 by Thomas S. and filed under Reviews, Sony

Digital photo frames can usually be separated out into two categories; basic but affordable and high-end with interesting features. The Sony DPF-V1000 takes the digital picture frame one step further, showing pictures not only on its 10.2” screen but on your HDTV through a HDMI port. Sony has you covered if you like to have a picture frame showing off a gallery of pictures throughout the week, but also if you want to show off slideshows during parties on the big screen. Priced at $250 this model costs quite a bit more than competing models making us wonder if the features justify the price.
