Average Customer Review:
This review is from: Norcent PF801 8-Inch LCD Digital Photo Frameyou find it at Walmart. This frame I purchased at Walmart for approx. $99.00. If the carton says more, have them scan the bar code! It should correct to the $$99 price. I have not found it anywhere else this low on the net. Please REMEMBER, all my comments are based on the fact that this frame was $99!First of all ... it has a great looking screen! Very nice, CRISP resolution (800 x 600). The frame does just an OK job (a little soft looking) if you reformat pictures to 800 x 600 with external software. However, if you throw higher camera resolutions at it, the more detailed it looks. I reformat my photos to 1800 x 1200 at 50% compression rate with ACDSee. This means you should be able to get over 300 great looking pictures on it's 128 megabyte internal memory. This is probably a little more then the average person will do, however, if you want really good (did I say CRISP!) and your nerd factor is a little higher, you will LOVE this frame at the $99 price! It is as good as some of the better digital frames in the $150 to $250. If you can pay $149 or less (anywhere) as in the Walmart store (I live in Rochester, NY), then you will get a very nice frame for the money. This is one of those "best kept secret" frames.I would also like to mention that ALL frames have shortcomings! Between me and my friend, we have tried MANY in our quest. For example, I liked the Kodak Easyshare EX-1011 10-Inch Digital Picture Frame with Wi-Fi a little better for screen quality, except I purchased 2 different units (of the same model) and the software was poorly implemented and had SEVERE problems on both units. I will write about that later in the actual Kodak review in this site. We have a friend at Kodak who says that frame has a 20% return rate!!Now, I digress, the Norcent's documentation is just adequate. There are a lot of undocumented features. For example ... it will play xvid & divx movies and they look very, very good! You can even adjust the screen proportions by pressing the "movie button" on the fly with the remote! Totally undocumented! There were a couple of things that bothered me, like, display times were fast, medium & slow with slow being on screen for just several seconds. I figured if I really wanted to have a picture on for an hour or a day, I would just use the pause button. Not a deal breaker for me. Also pictures are selected in order without any randomizing option. Not great, but again, not a deal breaker because it does so many other things so well! It WILL dip into ALL folders that I created on a flash drive. Not many frames that I have tried were able to do that. You usually have to have all the images on the root part of the drive. There are a lot of nice touches in the design that really worked for me ,like the screen easily removes from its burnished metal holder if desktop space is at a premium.Incidentally, my friend (who is geeky) found this frame to be very, very good as well and he is even more anal than me :) ! I am a fine arts professional photographer and picky as well. We will be doing more testing for those who care. Ultimately I am looking for a great wi-fi 15" frame with a decent resolution (1024 X 768 or better) and a moderate price (under $300). I have not found the Holy Grail yet. I still believe the digital frame industry is not quite up to par yet. I give it 2 to 3 more years to really get there.More later on this review!...
This review is from: Norcent PF801 8-Inch LCD Digital Photo FrameI got this as a refurb unit.The frame is pretty high grade, tilts, solid brushed metal and wooden frame (that frame is probably MDF with faux wood)... The looks match the "Executive" label on the box. Pretty slick.Comes with a desk foot, wall mount, and the snazzy desk mount pictured. Pretty much can install it as you wish.The software works well. Simple and clean. I have not noticed any freeze yet.small design flaws:The rotating frame allows just the right amount of space to plug in cards or usB cables. They are on the sides instead of top/bottom (buttons are at the top).Also there is no storage compartment for the remote.When you pull the digital frame from the frame (very easy), suddenly it's compact, 1/2 the size. It looks more plain -black plastic-, like a car DVD screen unit. Clean but not particularly snazzy.Photos in cards need to be selected via the menu. Built in memory is shown as slides directly.I agree with the shortcomings:Lacks random, and "slow" mode is way too fast. Photos look too soft too, but I have saved 800x600 pics in there. I will try to save higher res pics to see if it helps. I wonder why native resolution photos look poor.I also opened the frame to see inside if I could hack a larger LCD screen in place. As usual the screen has a custom connector, this one is split in two halves. No go.Internal electronics build looks very clean....
This review is from: Norcent PF801 8-Inch LCD Digital Photo FrameIt's a nice frame with good picture quality. It even includes a remote. I would not recommend it though, because of the amount of problems I have found. If you leave the frame cycling, then after a couple hours it will freeze on the first photo. the remote will also not work at this point either. I have also found that the remote will not work if you just le...
