 Delivers where it counts August 8, 2008
I was looking for a digital photo frame that had a crisp, clear, and high resolution; vibrant color; and excellent contrast, while staying under $100 (possibly refurbished). I've been disappointed with most digital photo frames that I've seen, which tend to have muddy, distorted color and ugly pixelation. Taking all of those points into consideration, this digital photo frame delivers where it counts. I was really surprised to find that the image quality of this frame's lcd rivals that of my computer monitor - no joke. If image quality is what matters to you most, I'd definitely recommend this baby.
Good product at $100 price point July 30, 2008
The Philips 7FF2FPA 6.5-Inch Digital Photo Frame (Clear & Black) is an attractive digital photo frame with a very crisp, bright, reasonably high resolution display (720x480). This resolution is very nice at this size. The other digital photo frame I have (a 7" Axion AXN-9701) was quite disappointing because the image display was a somewhat blurry 480x234 pixels. Resolution matters but in the 6.5 to 7.0" range, 720x480 is probably good enough.
It would be great if the frame had a battery (it doesn't) -- both so you could show pictures to people away from an outlet and so the built in clock can maintain its time when unplugged (it gets cleared as mentioned in the documentation). The documentation is clear and well written.
You can pretty much copy your pictures to a memory card, pop it in, plug the frame in, and go. To fit thousands of pictures on a small memory card, simply have your photo program mass resize all of them to 720x480 JPEG files. Photoshop Elements does this easily and others probably do it to. You don't need higher resolution because the frame cannot display anything higher (and your photo program probably can do a more accurate shrink than the photo frame came).
 Still good, but less than expected. July 29, 2008
This digital photo frame looks pretty sleek in pictures and in real life. However the outside is NOT made of glass as it may appear, it is actually plastic, meaning the frame overall is very light. The peg stand in the back is actually REALLY BULKY.
This was intended to be a gift, but it was so light I had to keep it for myself. There is no way to engrave the plastic outside portion or the black frame portion, as I have tried.
The price does seem fair, though, as while I was trying to get it engraved, I stopped by a local Sharper Image that was closing down, and saw the same photo frame. The tag said "original price-$199 store closing price-$149. It did make me feel a little better about my purchase seeing as I only paid $94
Easy.. July 7, 2008
to upload your pics from your memory card to the frame. Common sense on how to set up the slideshows as well. Very pleased with device!
 Bought 4, 1 failed 4 times before I gave up! July 5, 2008
I bought four of these (one for me and three for gifts). Initially, I like a lot about these. Picture quality was high, the display options very good (I have another HP frame that is handicapped by limited options). The only problem -- 2 of these frames failed. They both just went to black screen. Mine (the one I can speak to) appeared to fail related to greater than a 512 MB chip. Customer service was good -- in that they replaced it twice at no charge including shipping, and twice at no charge with me paying shipping. Customer service ideas -- 1) power surge (I placed the next 3 on a high quality surge protector) 2) I was using a "non-approved" memory chip (I replaced it using the ones recommended on the web site (but not mentioned in the manual) 3) That I had a picture file that was corrupted and it was damaging the picture hardware.
I finally gave up and now have a $150 picture frame sitting in the trash (four replacements is enough). I also find it hard to believe that a corrupted file could damage the frame. Also, I have used many of these same photos in other frames without incident.
When it worked, it was great. But given the failure rate I experienced, I can not recommend it.
