 Excellent Product - Can't understand the negative reviews... |
| Review Date: January 21, 2010 |
| Reviewer: M. Kennedy, |
This review is for the Pandigital PanImage 8" Digital Picture Frame Model Number PI8004W01. Purchased 1/19/2010.
First, I should share that I am very technically oriented and a perfectionist. I won't put up with a poor quality or pporly engineered product. Second, I just cannot for the life of me understand some of the comments in the negative reviews for this product based on my experience. I am not sure whether Pandigital has upgraded the product but maintained the same part number or what but there are some clear differences between those posts and my experience. The product I received does have a full 1GB memory and does display photos in a clear and crisp full 800 x 600 resolution. I was almost impressed with the playback of a video. In fact, out of curiosity the first thing I transferred was a 150mb video file that played perfectly sound and all.
Features I really like:
+ The ability to schedule the frame to turn on and off at predesignated times as I am giving this as a gift to my wife who will be putting it on her desk at the office.
+ The ability to select "auto convert" which converts the images being imported to the ideal image size for display (saves storage and saves time from having to do it myself manually on a PC).
+ 8" display as the 7" just seemed a little small to me.
+ 4:3 aspect ratio. I was actually planning to go with something that had 16:9 but then realized most cameras still use/produce 4:3 so this will display most images perfectly vs. having black bands on the right and left (like watching non-HDTV picture on an HDTV.
+ Connectivity - Supports most memory card sizes, USB cable connection to a PC, direct access to a USB drive, and more.
+ Sound - the ability to play a video and hear the sound or even background music if desired.
Last but not least, I was considering a Sony as an alternative but found that many user reviews are complaining about the inablity to load and play a photo that was edited by PC software. I retouch and/or edit photos using photoshop and other tools so I decided to avoid the Sony product. |

| I received the photo frame in a very timely manner and love it. The photos were very easy to upload and I love the fact that it holds 6400 pictures on it's memory, has a remote control, clock and can add music. The picture quality of the pictures are very good also. You have to plug this in an outlet, but for the price you can't beat it. |
Excellent Value

| Previously purchased a digital frame that was much more expensive, but returned it because it had really poor quality. This has excellent quality especially for its price. |
Excellent Frame

| I didn't want the wide screen format, which a lot of the digital frames out there seem to be. This has great picture quality in a nice, quality frame. |
Nice frame but missing some features.

| My box has this model number on it, but the frame has 1 GB internal memory and stores up to 6400 images. That said, this is a nice looking frame and the pictures look great. You can adjust the brightness of the pictures. You can rotate pictures but many of them may have the tops of heads cut off. The remote is not very responsive unless you lay it on a table in front of the frame. Otherwise, you have to press the buttons several times. You can put pictures in subfolders that are prelabeled and unchangeable, such as vacation, family, etc. and set just one folder to slideshow. What I wish this frame would do is allow you to display just one photo instead of the slideshow. An alternative is to put one picture in a subfolder, select it, and turn off transition, but you have to delete the picture from that subfolder and add another if you want to change the picture you want to display. Or you can put a few pictures in a subfolder and select the 1 hour or 24 hour interval, but that interval would apply to all your pictures, not just the subfolder, and you have to change the timing (and transition options if you like those) to show all your pictures again unless you like the 1 or 24 hour rotation for all of them. Not as convenient a choice as just being able to freeze one picture. It also does not let you save pictures to the internal memory from your card while playing the slideshow. I have a 10.4 inch Philips that allows you to do those things (but it doesn't rotate the pictures unless you rotate the frame). I like it better, it's just unfortunately too big for my needs. I don't know if I'll keep this Panimage. I like to display just one picture at times, and this frame does not offer a convenient way of doing so. |
