It looks realy nice, except that at least around me it seemed to have been the "gift of the year" and they should have relased it a month ago. I know I would have gotten a nice branded photo frame like that instead of the cheapo ones I see everyone getting.

how bad does the 480 x 234 resolution look?
silverblackvoid @ Dec 28th 2007 11:33AM
pretty bad.

Most 7inch frames have this resolution as it is simply the cheapest panel and you know what this means for the quality.

480x234? Ugh... Thats less than my iPhone and the screen is twice the size diagonally. Thats pretty terrible for a screen that size.
But then again "Polaroid" is pretty much a name you can stamp on any product you like as long as you pay the licensing fee. So no expectations of quality there.

I bought a smartparts 7 inch frame with a 480x234 screen... returned it the same night...nuff said

I'm so sick of those freakin' digital frames. It's like a new one comes out every four hours. The one that came the closest to get my interest was one that had a built-in alarm clock, but it couldn't show the time and a slideshow simultaneously.

Digital frames would be so nuch cooler if they would use Sideshow...

still spamming out low resolution junk i see. its like they are just using left over dvd player screens. yes those also have the horrible resolution.

Yippie yay...another crappy frame. What makes me wonder is WHY are the prices so different anong these frames. Here we have Polaroid 400x234 with 7 in screen for $149 yet if searched online for the same specs from another manufacturer (as shitty as Polaroid) you end up paying half the price. I'm tired of junk flooding the market. Like earlier posts mentioned...give us damn side show or RSS / e-mail feed with WiFi instead of OOGLEEE looking frames and we'll be happy. Look at Chumby as an example...smack larger screen into it and we have a winner.

I really think they got caried away with the actual FRAME itself....
Look at that HUGE thing!
It's like, a good 3 times the size of the ACTUAL PICTURE... which in itself will be grainy.

Can somebody tell me why every photo frame has a little dot (sensor?) below the display? What's it for? Do these things dim themselves in the dark or something?
Phil @ Dec 28th 2007 11:06AM
My guess is it's for the remote?
And I agree, these things are crap. I got one for Christmas and the quality is just terrible. I feel back too, cause they probably paid $70 for it. It looks and feels like a $20 product.
Interesting thing is, it does play avi files so I have a portable video screen!
silverblackvoid @ Dec 28th 2007 11:35AM
i think its the light sensor. not sure though.

thinkgeek.com has a better selection of digital photo frames, one of them supports 1024x768 resolution for about $50 more plus it's bigger. Just my two-bits.
silverblackvoid @ Dec 28th 2007 11:40AM
how many people actually but these digital photo frames? and dont they consume power all the time? if they really wanna increase the sales and improve efficiency, shouldn't they be using e-ink technology. just my thoughts.
