A Stellar Digital Frame November 13, 2009 C. Gerrans (San Francisco, USA) 100 out of 101 found this review helpful
I tried to do a lot of research before buying my first digital picture frame and it all pointed to this Samsung model. Friends told me I could get a similar frame for half the price but the facts didin't bear it out.
The lines of this frame are crisp and stylish, great for any decor. I have a traditional house heavy on the antiques and it fits in as well as it would in a modernist minimalist setting.
The picture quality and the apect ratio are awesome, much better than on most of the frames I looked at. It's easy to set up and use; though I do have to tell you it comes with only a quick guide; if you want the in depth instructions you have to download the guide from Samsung.
It's great in that it has a built in memory as well as accepting a card and a memory stick. It has lots of display options and a shuffle capability that make every time you turn it on a different experience. Very pleased, in fact am going to buy another and most of my friends who have seen it are now going to 'upgrade' from their other frames!
Great Look December 4, 2009 Imran I. Khan 13 out of 14 found this review helpful
I was looking for good looking frame to match with my table (Black), then I had got this one. It really got nice look and good features. Pros are 1GB internal Memory, Good Looks, Almost all type of Media support, can be used as another monitor.
Cons are No Remote control, Control buttons are quite hard and its quite delicate.
Works well as a digital Photo frame December 30, 2009 Tufloss (Wisconsin) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Product works well as a digital photo frame. It has a good clear picture, and ports for USB flash drives and SD cards. Bought it as a gift for my wife and she loves it.
A warning to any who are thinking about buying this to use as a secondary monitor. Currently Samsung does not have frame manager software available for 64bit operating systems. So, if you have XP, Vista, ar Win 7 64bit this will not work as a mini monitor. I have not tried the product on a 32bit system so I cannot say whether the product works on these. To clarify a few other reviews, the software can be found and downloaded from Samsung's site.
So as a picture frame it works perfectly so far, but I am disappointed that the ability to use it as a mini-monitor is not supported on my computer. Especially since there is no information I have seen outside of C-net's forums that mentions that it will not work on a 64bit system.
Not MAC compatible????? February 1, 2010 G. Todd (San Francisco, CA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Hi. I was really hoping to have a great experience with this since I am a loyal Samsung HDTV consumer and the price was great on this product. I bought it so that I could load it with pictures of my baby and send it to her grandparents (happy it had the 1G internal drive as well as the external memory slots so that I can send updated images over time). I soon found that downloading images from my Mac was not possible and that it was very unclear in the sales materials that this is such an issue. It eventually became clearer when I downloaded an online user guide that was MUCH MORE comprehensive than the three page summary that was included in the box. Since I got it as a gift in advance of the holidays, it became unreturnable outside the 30 day policy. Very dissapointed--many people have use Apple products especially for photos, and the format of the pics does not seem compatible with the Samsung frame. Perhaps I am missing something, and if I do learn of it, I will change my review, but right now I am looking at a blank frame that I may just paste a picture on :(
Love it at the office December 11, 2009 K. Rosckes (New Prague, MN USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this Samsung digital frame to use on my desk at the office. I am very pleased. I connected the USB cable and downloaded a few hundred pics to the internal memory. The frame contains an "auto on" feature to automatically start or stop each day, but I prefer to turn it on manually. There is no remote but it's so easy to reach over and push the power button on the rear panel while my PC is booting up. I am displaying my pics in full view, so the frame will automatically cut off the top & bottom to utilize the full width. Some pics in "portrait" configuration get cut off, but landscape pics are all great. (I'm not sure why the frame makers are not keeping standard camera aspect ratios, but this seems common.) If you have a lot of pics in portrait config, them you may be disappointed displaying them on this frame. I've received a lot of positive comments from co-workers. The resolution has surpassed my expectations.
