Average Customer Review:
This review is from: Photoco 7XL 7-Inch Digital Photo Album and FrameWith the recent arrival of our first grandchild I purchased for my wife this Christmas the Photoco 7XL Digital Photo Album and Frame. For the price we paid we received about what we expected, about average in its features and manufacture, but below average in certain areas.The frame is a very low-grade plastic, so if you're looking for something to display on the mantle look elsewhere. New Grandma wanted to be able to carry the viewer in her purse so she could share photos of our new little girl. We purchased the leather case after presenting the 7XL on Christmas to safeguard it.We also purchased a couple of unanticipated items, a Li-ion battery and a memory stick. The packaging and marketing materials are indeed misleading; this is a portable player but all that is included is an AC adapter. It was only after purchase and presentation that we discovered the need for a special Li-ion battery, and that AA or AAA batteries were not the power source when this device was mobile.And while marketing materials lead one to conclude there's memory aboard the device, something along the lines of uploading photo files from one's computer to the 7XL, there is no such memory. That's only available with an additional flash memory device, several of which are compatible with the device.We've not yet discovered how to show the photos in the sequence that we would like it to display. Selecting the type of play, random or otherwise, does not seem to have an effect on how the images are shown.In Slideshow Music mode it appears impossible to show a selected folder of images with the music one loads onto the card or stick that contains the photo files. The best we can figure, when selecting Slideshow Music on the remote control all photos are shown in the sequence the 7XL chooses, along with music in the order it chooses to play these.The Owner's Manual, like so many today, is at best poor. Online support is nothing more than a phone number and email address, with no better documentation to be found. At least Customer Support responds quickly, but their response to our question was merely to say the device could not do what one would think it would: in the calendar function, the device displays a calendar, along with the current date and time -- as well as some sort of blurry image in a sort of framed area in the upper left corner of the display. One would think changing whatever that image is with a personal photo would be fairly straightforward, as well as a nice feature. Who would want to display a cheezy calendar with some impersonal, indistinguishable graphic instead of a photo of a loved one? Apparently the folks at Photoco.The manual also says charging the optional Li-ion battery with the AC adapter first displays a red indicator that turns to green when the battery is charged. Nope. The red indicator dims and then goes out.Given this is a portable device, add the battery and raise the price somewhat. Replace the plastic frame with a nice, affordable protective case. Allow music to accompany photos of one's choosing and in sequence of the user's choice. And for Pete's sake, allow the customer to place a personal photo on the calendar page or get rid of the calendar.For the price, the 7XL Digital Photo Album is, well, okay. Photoco could do much better and must if it expects repeat business....
This review is from: Photoco 7XL 7-Inch Digital Photo Album and FrameWe purchased our unit 18 months ago and it worked well in continuous use for approximately 9 months until one morning the screen went black. I found the TV video output worked fine indicating the problem was limited to the screen's drivers. We sent the unit to PHOTOCO where they "repaired" and returned the unit. We then put the unit back in service. Five months later the screen once again went black. When I called PHOTOCO they said that the unit was now out of warranty and that "repair is impossible, we only replace units, never fix them." I'd recommend not buying the PHOTOCO product with an intent to place into continuous service....
This review is from: Photoco 7XL 7-Inch Digital Photo Album and FrameI bought this for my father-in-law and my mother for Christmas presents this year. The viewer is great, very good size for "senior" eyes. Picture quality is as good as any digitial frame I've seen. The plastic frame it comes with is pretty cheap - if you are looking to use it as a frame I wouldn't go with this one. My intention was for them to be able to carry the viewer around with them to show off the grandkids so I purchased the matching leather cases for both and it makes a world of difference. A must have. As cheap as the frame is that's how great the leather case is.Maybe I just didn't see it but I didn't realize when I ordered it that it required a special battery that is sold seperately. Fortunately I was able to order them in time for Christmas. I did find them in a pretty wide variety of price ranges even here on Amazon. I ordered the cheaper one and it has worked fine. They are made by the same manufacture as the viewer so I don't think there are really any differences in the batteries only the retailers.The viewer worked great but I did have a bit of a challenge getting it to show the pictures in the sequence I wanted it to. I loaded a 2 Gig SD card with ove...
