1.0 out of 5 stars You Get What You Pay For - Seriously., January 27, 2009

This review is from: Haier PF710 7-Inch Digital Photo Frame (Black) (Electronics)

I bought this as a Christmas gift for someone else, and was happy that I was able to get such a thing for such a good price! Or so I thought. As another reviewer wrote, you get what you pay for - or in this case, you'd have thought someone had paid ME to take this piece of junk off their hands, because that's all it really is.

First off, it takes a loooooooooooong time to load, anything. It took forever to load up just the start-up screen, which I forgave at first because it was the first time firing it up. But then I soon realized it took several minutes (anywhere from 5-20 - literally) to load ANYthing. After the main screen, I'd have to press yet another button just to get to a main menu, and that would take another extreme amount of time. Even if I were a patient person this would drive me nuts.

Then when I finally got to the main menu, some of the options wouldn't even work! I'd press what I wanted to do, and it would just ignore it as if I hadn't pressed anything. I had already loaded a memory card so I could play pictures on it, and absolutely nothing would happen. At this point I restarted it to see if that would help, and then it wouldn't even turn on again. At all.

After unplugging it and plugging it back in numerous times, it finally started again, and I went and did the dishes, took a shower, and started to take a nap while I waited yet another lifetime for it to load back to the main menu. When it finally came back, I pressed the buttons that were still ignoring me in some weird combination until I finally somehow received the option to load the pictures. I was like OMG HOORAY, and then it loaded one picture for about 2 seconds, then went to this strange pink and green screen.

Okay, so perhaps mine was just defective and that isn't how all of them are. But I won't be taking my chances with this brand again, for sure.

3.0 out of 5 stars Haier frame is low-priced... but not really worth it, June 18, 2009

I paid only about $30 for this (admittedly, not here at Amazon). The plus is that it has a remote... many other low-end digital frames have only the clunky button interface on the back side (super frustrating to scroll through). The main reason I bought this frame is that it has speakers and supposedly plays video files. I could not load a MPEG video file and make it work. ALSO, the wide-screen format is deceiving. The image of the frame used by Amazon above has been faked...I know this because the two people shown are of normal size. In order for an image to fill the frame to the edges, you have to enable the wide-screen format which STRETCHES the image. This distorts people to look like they're sumo wrestlers. You can display images without this wide-screen option, but then they just float in the middle with a 1-inch unused section down each side. I say, don't bother with this product.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor instructions and not user friendly, May 30, 2009

This product came with very poor instructions on exactly how to use it. Also, they need to specify exactly what the total amount of MB is supported. We loaded up a SD card with 130MB and it played a few of the pictures, but once I compressed it down to 32MB it showed all the pictures and worked perfectly. It does have a good picture, but wouldn't recommend it for someone who is looking for an easy to use digital picture frame.
