Digital Photo Frame

I now must buy another digital photo frame. I will not buy another ViewSonic. I have 2 Rosewill photo frames that are 4 years old and and are never turned off and have never had a problem......RB

Worked fine for a while

My ViewSonic photo frame stopped working. ViewSonic sent a replacement. After a few months the replacement stopped working. ViewSonic sent another replacement. The second replacement has now quit. It is now out of warranty and today the ViewSonic Rep...

Best I've Ever Seen

Overall, this is the best quality and largest digital photo frame I have seen. Very happy with it!

Large size, Price, Resolution, Appearance

Flimsy toy like remote, Video playback leaves something to be desired

15" ViewSonic Digital Frame

I purchased this because of past experiences with ViewSonic monitors. The display lives up to the ViewSonic name, the rest of the device is a bit disappointing. I emailed ViewSonic tech support prior to purchasing and the rep. told me it had random...

Great display -- image looks crisp and vibrant ; No dead pixels ; Lots of options for storage devices ; Great size for the $$ spent ; Typical ViewSonic clarity

No random image display ; Alarm does not work as advertised ; Remote only works from 3' away ; Sensitive to file system type on storage device ; Occasionally corrupts the file system on the storage device ; Cannot play music/video/images together, you...

Awesome

This frame is definately worth the money, does what it says it does and more. Full range of picture settings and transitions. With this frame you can even set it for calendar and have your personal photos displayed on the calendar. It even plays video...

no random

if it would have had random play it would of been a 5 egg review. the thing looks great if you want to look at the same pics. unless they update the drivers i see this sitting with the power off at my house.

looks real good

NO RANDOM PLAYBACK ; i spent hours putting 4.5 gigs of pics on a SDcard, thinking i could put it on random play and never see the same pic. for a week. but no, it starts at the same pic and goes in order witch really sucks

Glass broken in frame

I tried the demo mode of the frame and the demo was great. I may unpack again and start putting together a slide show while I wait for the prepaid shipping label. It really looked great.

The frame arrived right away. Shipping broke the glass so I ordered another as it was for wife's Christmas. The price was up $10, but wanted it anyway. I contacted Customer service this morning got a RMA # and they are sending a return label and...

The wait time on the phone seemed like 30 minutes - to be truthful it may have been only 10 minutes but the storm sounds mad me cold this morning

Beautiful but useless

The software on another ViewSonic photo frame I used was just fine. I don't understand how they could have such terrible software on this nice piece of hardware. Really a terrible shame. If they updated their firmware to add the essential features that...

Large, clear, bright screen. Proper aspect ratio

Abysmal software prevents you from viewing photos in a way that makes sense. For example, every time you turn on the photo frame it starts at the same first photo and proceeds in the exact same order. Turn it off and back on, it starts over. I have...

Beautiful but flaky

I had hoped it would have an audio jack output, but sound only plays through built-in speakers. Not really a surprise, but it would be nice if it had an output I could run to my stereo.

Beautiful resolution, very nice display

Runs for about 15 seconds, then goes black and stays that way until power cycled. Loud *pop* when powered on. Will RMA

Excellent quality, but a bit too big for placing on a table/ledge

This is vastly superior in quality compared to the Viewsonic 7" model which I also bought and returned. So if you were dissatisfied with their smaller models, you can confidently buy this one.

Very high quality workmanship, and color rendition. A fantastic DPF for DSLR quality pictures

The frame margins are too thick, making it too big to have on coffee tables or any kind of ledge in my opinion. This is definitely to be used as a wall hanging
