All of this review applies to the 15" Pixstar digital frame. We originally purchased the 10" and found it unimpressive. The 15" inch is phenomenal, though. Very functional, easy to set up, easy to use or even have non-tech grandparents use. Beautiful display. We bought this for: 1) Grown son who moved across the country, and we weren't hearing from him often enough. After he received the frame which we had loaded with 24,000+ awesome photos, we were top of the mind and are still getting frequent phone calls from him. Really great for helping us stay connected. 2) For our own family to help our kids form identity (preteens and teens) with perspective of so much of the good they've had in life. Teens tend to have a narrow focus and can get stuck in "Woe is Me" and feel isolated. We and our kids adore watching this frame and will just stand in front of it, watching the slideshow. The siblings' closeness to each other increased from recalling happy memories they've shared. 3) For *not* tech-savvy grandparents in their 70's who have wifi access but prefer not to have devices running on it. We at first got the Nix 8" Digital Frame ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VCCK198/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 ), but we were so unimpressed. Upgraded and spent the extra money for this one because the viewing experience is so superior, it's easier to see from across the room, and it has the options for (any memory amount of) SD card or USB, downloads around 32,000 photos (varies depending on quality/how many mb your photos are) and stores them in the frame, so the user doesn't have to use the internet to see photos. It also connects via the internet to online albums such as Google Photos and other photo share apps. That feature is really neat and works well. Our grandparents/parents really liked the frame. 4) Recently bought another one for our grown daughter who moved out, to help her feel connected to her family. Each frame gets registered when you plug it in with it's own email address and account. You can sync all the accounts you have for various frames in one group account and control all of the frames from the one account - changing which album plays, which kind of slideshow, etc. We use both the individual accounts and the group account to control a frame, depending on our what we want. If you want it to really play ALL the photos stored in the frame, make sure you select under "My Frame Configuration" then "Slide show configuration" then under "Playing Mode" select "NORMAL" then "Sorting Mode" select "RANDOM." If you do it with the other configurations, it tends to seem stuck on certain scenes/photos in your library and not play all of them. The above configurations seemed to work and let us see a constantly changing selections of photos. We hope they keep updating the frame and making them because we'll be buying more for other family members. Highly recommend!

This is an update/addition to my review of November 2022. As I mentioned in my initial review I did a large amount of research prior to purchasing the Pix-Star 10 inch frame. The frame not only answered all of my requirements, it worked perfectly for almost the entire 1st year. I could not have been more satisfied (I also purchased a 2nd unit as a gift). Recently, a problem developed regarding the motion sensor. I contacted Pix-Star's Customer Support and they recommended a couple of actions which initially corrected the issue but ultimately the problem continued. After about four weeks of trying I advised Pix-Star that none of the fixes worked and the motion detector remained inoperable. They immediately advised me they were sending a new, replacement frame and I received it within a few days. They responded quickly, efficiently, and totally to my satisfaction. They provided a level of Superior Customer Service seldom displayed today. I am providing this added review because they not only deserve it but also for peace of mind for those of you who may be hesitant in making this purchase. Here's my bottom line. It is a great product with all of the bells and whistles I required backed up by a reputable firm providing outstanding customer service. I did a lot of research on a good amount of photo frames from various firms. Assuming similar quality my primary needs were: 1. motion detector 2. ability to use a usb stick 3.load photos via internet 4. auto resizing of photos I decided to go with Pix-Star and what a good decision! The frame itself is basic and looks fine. The most important feature for me (along with those listed above) is how do my photos look when displayed. Let me tell you - in one word FANTASTIC. They look great. For those of you shopping for one of these for the first time (like me) here are some suggestions. When you first get it you will want to load it with current photos. That's why I wanted the ability to use a USB stick. I loaded almost 225 photos immediately. I don't know how long that would have taken via the internet. All I did was go to my PC , down loaded the photos to a USB, and then uploaded from the USB to the frame. Uploading took about 1 minute. The internet is fine for uploading a few photos when you like, but starting off with a large amount may be time consuming. Doing it this way also allowed me to "polish" my selections using Photoshop so they looked exactly the way I wanted. I also was able to resize most of my photos to 8 X 6 (frame display size) so there was no distortion or cropping. I am particular with my photos. This frame provides a lot of flexibility, it is fairly easy to understand, and overall does a great job. It isn't cheap - but it is worth the dollars it cost.

This frame works well. Does what I want. Picture quality is good. Online access is great. I can view, move, add, delete photos from albums from my computer's browser. The frame uses a remote instead of a touch screen. It's a lot harder using the frame's menus -- much of it very confusing. I recommend using the computer for making changes since the frame is probably in an inconvenient location. The included manual seems to be out of date with the software, but an A.I can answer questions. Some other brands of digital frames are more frame than picture. This one's frame is mercifully narrow. I like that a lot. Just wish it was white instead of black,

Amei o produto. Envio fotos, videos do instagram, facebook .... facilmente. Excelente. Recomendo.

Comprato com regalo per mia nonna ed è stato molto apprezzato, con SD ho potuto inserire moltissime foto, e tramite l'upload via email ho permesso ai vari parenti di poter dare il loro contributo. L'accesso da remoto mi permette di controllare i contenuti. L'utilizzo è semplicissimo , impostato per funzionar ein modo automatico e con un telecomando semplice da usare. La configurazione è stata un po' laboriosa ma non troppo complessa. L'unico limite è il caso di alimentazione che non permette un uso appeso a parete ma solo in appoggio su un piano.

On one display we email family photos and on other travel photos from cloud Both systems work great

Déçue, problèmes au niveau des formats autorisés. Manque une batterie interne

Ich habe sehr lange nach einem digitalen Bilderrahmen gesucht (mit mehreren Fehlversuchen) und denke jetzt eine sehr gute Wahl getroffen zu haben: * Die für mich wichtigste Funktion „zufällige Wiedergabe“ funktioniert sehr gut. * Das Gerät hat einen USB-Anschluss (kompatibel ab USB 2.0). * Die Bilder müssen weder in den Speicher des Bilderrahmens noch in die Cloud übertragen werden, sondern können automatisch vom USB-Stick geladen werden. * Das Gerät kann vollständig vom Stromnetz getrennt werden, ohne dass es die Einstellungen vergisst. * Das Gerät kann vollständig offline (ohne WLAN-Anschluss) betrieben werden. (Ich musste etwas überlegen, da unbedingt versucht wird, den WLAN-Anschluss einzurichten.) * Das Gerät startet nach einem Kaltstart (mit einer kleinen Verzögerung) automatisch die gewünschte Bilder-Show: Bildwiedergabe: normal plus zufällig) vom USB-Stick. * Eine Antwort auf Support-Anfrage als angemeldeter User dauerte weniger als 24 Stunden. * Das Netzteil des Rahmens stört (im Gegensatz zu den Netzteilen von zwei anderen vergleichbaren Produkten) den (terrestrischen) Radioempfang nicht! (sehr gut!) * Das Gerät hat einen aus meiner Sicht optimalen Ständer und ein vergleichsweises sehr gutes Verhältnis von Anzeigefläche und zur Gesamtgröße. * Die Möglichkeit des Einblendens der Dateinamen (mit Aufnahmedatum) ist sehr gut gelöst (am unteren Bildschirmrand). * USB-Sticks müssen exFAT (oder FAT32) formatiert sein, dann seien tausende Bilder mit einer Gesamtgröße von bis zu 2TB USB anzeigbar. * Mit mehreren tausend wiederzugebenden Bildern in einer flachen Dateistruktur verlängern das Laden beim Kalt-Starten (nachdem dem Rahmen stromlos war). Hier wäre eine Optimierung wünschenswert. ** Das Problem lässt sich umgehen, wenn die Bilder in mehrere Unterordner aufgeteilt werden. (Das ändert nichts meinen sehr positiven Gesamteindruck.) zukünftig wünschenswert wäre für mich: * Wenn in den Metadaten der Bilder GPS-Positionsdaten enthalten sind: Anzeige des Ortes und/oder eine optionale Anzeige eines Kartenausschnittes. * USB-Anschluss so positionieren, dass ein durchschnittlicher USB-Stick nicht über den Rahmen nicht hinausragt.
