Average Customer Review:
This review is from: Smartparts SP800W 8-Inch Digital Picture Wood FrameModel reviewed: SP800W.Date of review: 2008 DEC 16.Time owned: 3 hours.Purchase price: $89.99 at OfficeMaxPrior experience with digital photo frames: none.Intent of purchase: gift for parents (out of state, age ~60); a "starter" frame - if they really like the concept & function of a digital frame, they can upgrade to a more feature-rich one at a later date.PROsPicture quality is very good. I am no "photophile", but the screen looks great to me, even with the optimized pics (~30 to 75 KB).Solid construction (not flimsy at all).With USB connection, self installs as a drive letter (WinXP). Allows for standard drag&drop and copy/cut&paste functionality to load/offload pics.Optional conversion software (OptiPixPro) optimizes copies of pics for upload to the frame. I.e., it reduces resolutions unusable to the frame, auto-rotates vertical pics for proper viewing.Included remote is handy for pause/go-back/go-forward/zoom during slideshow.Quality wood outer frame.Handy stand holds frame at a nice viewing angle.2nd extra SD/MMC slot hidden behind a cover expands "on board" storage capacity while still leaving the main memory slots open.CONsNo ability to modify presentation order of photos (and I am unclear what determines the order). I.e., it is always the same order each time through the set; (e.g. no shuffle, no date order, no alphabetical, no consistent folder grouping, etc.). According to SmartPartsProducts.com website, this is a limitation of the OptiPix line of frames (vs. their SyncPix which come with software that allows more control over presentation order.)Only 3 discreet speeds for slide show (4, 7, or 12 sec).JPEG is the only photo format that it supports.Warranty only 90 days. (Based on other the scores of reviews that I read regarding multiple digital photo frames, quality and reliability seem to be weak points across all vendors. As such, I bought the 2 extra years of replacement warranty for $20 at purchase).Not designed for wall mounting.No battery (power cord must be connected). This precludes the option of passing it around the room like a photo album.Menu is not intuitive (2 out of 5).No touch screen, nor Wi-fi connectivity. (Not expected for $90).UNTESTEDvideo playback.audio playback.large capacity (>1 GB) storage cards.storage cards with large (> 200 photos).Customer support system of vendor, nor manufacturer.BOTTOM LINE Great value. Rating 8 out of 10 (for my/my parents needs). Based on my assessment of reviews of multiple competing products in the $50-125 range, this is a very good digital photo frame. I am very satisfied with this purchase and expect that it will be a wonderful gift. I will update this review after 6-12 months of use. I hope that you find this review helpful....
This review is from: Smartparts SP800W 8-Inch Digital Picture Wood FrameHave this frame for a couple of years now and it is working great, easy to connect to PC and download pictures, even easier to just stick a memory card in. I'm buying a couple of more for the parents and in-laws....
This review is from: Smartparts SP800W 8-Inch Digital Picture Wood FrameI bought this as a Christmas gift for my mom, and I couldn't be happier. She loves it! The frame was exceptionally easy to set up, and the photos are sharp and clear. I would buy this for myself, and I just might....
