dmims [Posted on 2008-12-16] Being a novice with digital frames, I found the directions with this product very confusing and the product was not very "user" friendly for me.
Burned out in 3 months [Posted on 2008-12-21] I purchased this in March 2008 and by June 2008 the digital image became permanently dimmed with a slight blinking. I contacted Aluratek by email and they never responded. No wonder it comes with a 3 month warranty, don't expect it to last any longer than this. I am highly disappointed and will never purchase an Aluratek product again.
Disappointed [Posted on 2008-12-21] I was quite disappointed with these frames. I bought three of them for family members for Christmas. I loaded them up with pictures and sent them off. I am a photographer and so I am quite familiar with photo quality. That was my main complaint with these frames. The photo quality was extremely poor and I know that the pictures that I was loading were crystal clear. I wasn't expecting perfection, but I thought it would be better than it was. The colors also were off also...too muted.
If I would have had time to return them, I would have. I was, however, under the gun to get these out in time for Christams. I would suggest checking out the frame that you are interested in at a local retailer to see the picture quality. If you are happy with it, then go ahead and order it on-line if it's a better deal. I would not buy something like this again without seeing it in person first.
Pass on this one [Posted on 2008-12-26] Most of the reviews I read for this Digital Photo Frame were good or better but I found it to be very difficult/impossible to set up and use. The instructions are a joke and the menu and function buttons are incredibly frustrating. I bought it as a gift but I'm going to return it... worse than useless!
Complete Piece of Garbage [Posted on 2008-12-27] Though Aluratek is an unknown Chinese company I bought this frame because I wanted one with a large format and an attractive frame. Should have known better. Warranty is ONLY 90 days and 2 days after the warranty expired the frame stopped working - went completely dead. You will read other reviews where others had the EXACT SAME THING HAPPEN. $180 up in smoke! When I read the fine print I saw they said you can only have this turned on 8 HOURS A DAY! That is ridiculous and this is the only frame I have seen on the market with such a stipulation. I will bet that those giving this a good review are back in a few weeks raising h*ll because their frame stopped working and they are screwed too. Do yourself a HUGE favor and buy a BRAND NAME frame. Wish I could have given this a Zero but Amazon starts at 1 star. Avoid Aluratek like the plague. I know I will from now on.
