 Grainy picture quality December 4, 2007

Diappointing picture quality. The online product overview states 'crisp picture', but I found it very grainy or pixelated (& I used high res digital photos from a new camera). It also had trouble reading 2 different SD cards, but I got it to work with the 3rd one. Manual is vague. Please note there are buttons on the top of frame to deal with the onscreen menu, although it looks like it should be touch screen. The frame is nice looking & has a nice finish. It doesn't look like wood, but it has a nice molded shape. Also has a small power brick. I'm returning the two I bought for gifts (drat).
 Very Disappointing December 7, 2007

I guess a middle aged person like myself should know you almost always get what you pay for and that is certainly the case with the Coby DP-758 7-Inch Widescreen photo frame. Sure it's attractive enough with a well finished removable frame, but as soon as the power switch goes on it is apparent this is no bargain. Very grainy display, apparent even in the menu. Pixel quality is VERY poor, regardless of the original photo quality. No amount of photo editing resulted in a better quality image. Incidentally, this is a 3x5 aspect ratio frame, and even though the description touts the 16:9 ratio its a little shocking to see it on a frame this small. The stock photo married to the description is NOT what this looks like, not nearly as tall. I'm not normally a buy and return guy but I bought 2 and returned them both, opting instead for 2 Philips 6.5 inch in the clear and black frame. Received them today and the difference is unbelievable.The Philips have a very sharp display and are easy to use. Amazon handled everything A+ as usaual
Poor picture quality, even worse customer service!! December 11, 2007

I purchased 3 of these frames for Christmas gifts based on the affordable price. The idea was to pre-load the frames with photos to give to our family, since we won't be together for the holidays. When I received the frames, I was really disappointed in the picture quality, but was going to keep them until I had trouble with the interface and horribly vague manual. I am a pretty tech savvy person, and all I wanted to accomplish was have our photos start up when you plug in the thing. Everytime you turn the frame on, you have to select about 5 prompts to get the slideshow started. I called Coby to see if there were other settings, and they emailed me instructions on reinstalling a MP3 player....nothing about the frame. I returned all three and purchased the $99 Westinghouse frame instead, which works like a dream, and has lots of settings to customize viewing the images...
 Great frame for the price December 29, 2007

I read lots of reviews on products before I purchase them. Don't we all? So as I am looking for a digital photo frame for my mom's gift for Christmas, I begin to get swept away by the MANY reviews regarding these frames. "The ratio is incorrect" "The qualiy is subpar" "I cannot program the [insert technical phrase] wih this product". Now I am thinking that my $60 gift is going to turn into a $200 gift, just so I can insure I am not giving my mom a blurry, difficult to work piece of junk!
Well, I take a breather, step back from the computer and reassess. Neither my mom nor myself do photography as a hobby. I have a nice 7MP camera whose setting is mostly on "General Use". I have NEVER used the Manual Focus feature. I consider the picure a success if I can either A)Print it out as a 3 1/2 x 4 to show to others or B) I can view it on my computer without squinting my eyes in an effort to figure out what I am looking at.
To make a long review endless: This frame is perfect. It supports most memory cards so you can load as many pictures as you would like. There are less than 8 buttons, all of which are clearly labelled, which makes my mom happy. She got it working in less than 5 minutes. The pictures looked just like they did on my computer monitor - my kids' cuteness projected well.:)
If you are a camera geek (a fond term, nothing mean intended here), you may want more than this frame can offer. But for those of us who are casual picture takers and simply want to pass on the memories, this item was just right.

When I bought this I thought it would be a lot nicer than it was. The "plastic" seems very cheap and it says in the directions you can use a USB cable provided to download pictures however this model doesnt include a USB cable.It is a special size so you have to order it from them. Also I was under the impression that you could download photos and the frame would hold them but you have to leave in your memory card from your camera. Not very convinient.I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
