Pix-Star LUX 10.4'' Wi-Fi Digital Picture Frame – Unlimited Cloud Storage, Easy App Sharing, 40,000+ Pictures, No-Glare Display, Motion Sensor, Email/App/USB/SD - 10 inch

I wanted to get a WiFi digital frame for my parents and did a lot of research including reading many customer reviews of different options. The PixStar frame was highly rated on Tom's Guide and I've found that source to be a good one in the past so I went with it and I am so happy. Here are some things I love: *The frame is super easy to set up and operate - I set it up at my house on my WiFi and tested it out before sending it to my parents and it worked great. I was able to easily switch it to their WiFi when I went to visit. That being said, my parents are not all that tech savvy, so I had to do the setup. I did try to walk them through connecting to the WiFi over a phone conversation but that was very difficult and did not work very well. To me it was not hard - but it may seem hard to those who are not used to working with things like that. *The frame has an option to just "Play All" and automatically receive making it so my parents do not have to do anything but sit and enjoy. When pictures come, they just show up! My parents love being able to see the pictures and have new ones to look at without having to touch anything. *I can control the frame remotely from my computer even though I live miles away. *It is easy to send pictures through an e-mail attachment or the PixStar app on my phone. *It looks nice and the pictures come through looking good. Some things to consider: *Size. I got the 10" frame and it works well. It is a nice size for a desk but I thought the picture display area would be a little bigger. The next size up, though seems quite big. We can see the pictures fine on the 10-inch but if you want clarity from across the room for people with limited eyesight then a larger frame might be better. They are happy with the size because it isn't too big and they can see it. My observation though is that if there's room for a larger size where they want to put it then maybe go up. *The weather option only shows if the user selects it and plays Web Albums. I could not get it to show in the Play All mode. My parents would have had to go and select it from the menu on Web Albums. So, we do not use the weather. *This frame has A LOT of other options! It has music, games, calendar, etc. I have not used any of those because really my parents just want to see the pictures so that is all we use on it but it works well for that. *Videos may or may not play. I haven't really tried it. There seem to be some options, but we've only done pictures. I sent a picture from my phone that had been taken in bursts and it came through as a movie and the frame played the first shot then put a message saying it couldn't play the video. So I converted the first shot to a JPEG and it was fine. I don't know what it would do with an actual video. We haven't tried that yet. Overall I am very pleased with this frame and so are my parents. They spend hours watching it and it is so enjoyable for them and comforting for me to know they like to watch it. I love being able to send up-to-date pictures and have them just show up. It may take up to 5 minutes sometimes, but it is pretty quick. I hope this review is helpful for anyone looking to purchase a WiFi digital frame.

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,

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.

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

La tablette est vraiment très bien. Il suffit de la connecter au Wifi et après on peut tout faire sur le site web de Pix-Star. J'ai créée 2 albums Google Photo que j'ai connecté à mon compte Pix-Star et la tablette se met à jour toute seule une fois par jour à ces albums. On peut partager ce compte avec plusieurs personnes pour que chacun puisse partager l'album qu'il veut de ses propres photos. Idéal pour une tablette chez des grand-parents par exemple. Le détecteur de mouvement qui éteint la tablelle automatiquement est capricieux. Il ne faut rien devant dans les 1 mètre même qui ne bouge pas, sinon elle ne s'eteint pas toute seule. Petit bémol, elle ne gère pas les videos provenant des albums web, allez savoir pourquoi. On peut mettre autant d'albums que l'on veut sur la tablette mais chacun doit avoir 3000 photos max. La tablette ne fera pas la différence cela dit, elle passera toutes les photos. Pas mal de règlages possibles, tous possibles via le site (le plus pratique) ou sur la tablette directement.

I got this frame a couple weeks ago, and had no trouble registering, and setting up the frames email address. I have since loaded 675 photos, some from onedrive, some emailed and some shared from Google photos. I'm in my 70s, so if I can do it, anyone can.
