Smartparts SPX8 Digital Picture Frame

Smartparts SPX8 Digital Picture Frame User Reviews

Great Frame and Picture Quality
“The picture quality is excellent. I started off with a free frame (gift) from another manufacturer that had half this resolution, and it did not give my pictures justice. Upgrading to this frame made a difference in the world to my picture quality. Do not buy anything less than 800×600, or your pictures just won’t look good. My favorite feature about this frame is the auto-sizing software available as a free download from the manufacturer’s website. All you do is download it onto your computer, and any pictures you have on your hard drive will automatically be resized when transferred to your frame using the software.” – By P. Morris

The Perfect Digital Frame
“If you want an easy-to-use right-out-of-the-box digital frame with excellent picture quality, this is it! I used an old memory card that I had from one of my previous digital cameras, added a bunch of photos to it from my computer, plugged the card into this frame. It begins by asking you if you want to just view the photos or copy them to the frame’s memory – after that, it automatically begins the slide show with great fade-out and movement patterns; the photos are clear and bright. So simple to use in this basic mode – I cannot wait to play around with it some more to customize the folders and even add some music! “ – By M. Gard

Consumer’s Reports was right
“This frame was really easy to use. Many reviewers rate this as difficult and confusing to set up. I had no problems. I placed all the pictures that I wanted on an SD card, put it in the frame, choose ‘select all’ and it produced a very nice slide-show. the Synchpix feature really optimizes every photo effectively. The video quality is the best on the market, look at other frames and you will notice the difference instantly. The auto off and motion sensor on feature is really good.” – By Longisland76

Excellent Picture and easy to use
“The picture is top-notch and the software is very capable, although a little hard to navigate around. It is also upgradeable, which is rarely the case for these products. I found that it took about 3 sec per picture to load, which isn’t a big deal, although I had saved the pictures on a memory stick pro in the 800 format using Picasa album, which I recommend. I also recommend that one backup your pictures before doing anything with them, including loading them onto a memory card. The only other downside I noted was that the controls on the back of the frame are pretty cheesy and hard to use. The remote does a better job.” – By DaveMars

This frame is wonderful
“This is the fourth digital frame I’ve ever purchased. Each time I decide to buy a digital frame, I scour the internet looking for the best one. The last frame I bought was an 11″ SmartParts, and it was absolutely beautiful.. First of all, the frame is beautiful. I really do not like the way it looks in the picture online. It is very easy to use. I bought a 2GB memory card, and when it’s plugged into the digital frame, you can either select copy (to copy pictures onto the internal storage) or view (to just watch them on the memory card).” – By Ariel

Great digital frame
“I got this frame for my wife as a birthday gift and we’ve been very pleased. After I got the frame, we downloaded the Smartparts Syncpix Frame Software from their website. It is pretty basic software but made moving photo files from our computer to the frame relatively easy. It does take a while to download photos to the frame, but being able to put hundreds of photos at your fingertips makes the wait worth it. We have thousands of digital photos and find this frame really helps us enjoy them all over again! Use the folder feature on the frame to load up sets of photos so you can shift the displayed pictures whenever you want..” – By njpsu

Very Nice Frame
“This frame produces very sharp pictures. The transfer process is a snap. Plug in your SD card and then come back in a few minutes and your pics are on the screen. Anybody can walkup an add pics anytime they want. There is no need to use a computer. The image quality was clearly better than other frames.Great for the technically challenged who want to use this type of device. The motion sensor halps increase screen life by shutting the screen off if no one (i.e. no motion) is detected in the room.” – By just a guy

Superb picture quality and easy to learn to use
“I respectfully disagree with the negative reviewer who didn’t like how long it takes to transfer photos from cards. I don’t find this characteristic bothersome (what’s the rush anyway?), though I wouldn’t mind being able to suspend the operation once it is started. But these are minor “problems.” Overriding them, in my view, are the stunningly clear quality of the photos and the many options one has vis a vis display time, transition effects, and order of presentation.” – By Gerald C.
