Motion Sensor-Tastic !, April 9, 2010
This review is from: NIX Hu-Motion X10A - World's 1st Energy Saving Digital Picture Frame with Motion Detection Sensor - Turns On/Off Automatically when you enter or leave the room! (Electronics)
Length:: 2:10 Mins
I know the motion sensor is supposed to be an energy saving device, which it is (I would guess it saves maybe half the electricity used compared to not having the sensor), but I think the best thing about it is I don't have to bother ever switching it on or off.
I enter my living room it comes on, I leave my living room and it switches off! how cooool!. I update the internal memory about once a month with new photos and that's it. It does have some other unexpected advantages.
Me and the wife like messing around with it, we'll record quick video messages on our camera and stick it on the frame. We then leave the frame in the hallway so when the kids walk through the door late at night they get a 'Why are you home so late message!' and we don't even have to get out of bed!
We're going on holiday next week and we're planning on leaving a video message for any would be burglars that will play when the frame senses them.

ASPECT RATIO NOT MADE CLEAR, June 3, 2010
This review is from: NIX Hu-Motion X10A - World's 1st Energy Saving Digital Picture Frame with Motion Detection Sensor - Turns On/Off Automatically when you enter or leave the room! (Electronics)
I was so proud of myself for researching digital photo frames and finding the NIX brand digital photo frame. I thought I had found just what I wanted in the NIX X10A and ordered it through Amazon last week. All of the other NIX frames I was considering had an aspect ratio of 4:3 which is what I wanted. Nowhere in the discription of the X10A does it give the aspect ratio - at least I can't find it. I was so disappointed when it came today and it has the 15:9 aspect ratio. Why do most of their other frames have the 4:3 but this one has the widescreen? And why don't they make that clear to the buyer? So while this might be a great photo frame (I'm not going to use it) I feel it should have been more clearly described to prevent what is now a very disappointed customer.

Better than I expected!!!, April 19, 2010
This review is from: NIX Hu-Motion X10A - World's 1st Energy Saving Digital Picture Frame with Motion Detection Sensor - Turns On/Off Automatically when you enter or leave the room! (Electronics)
Having seen other pictures electronic picture frames, I really did not expect that much more quality than the average brand most people have. WAS I EVER WRONG!
I ordered this as an Easter gift for my Wife, but it seem I really bought for the both of us! Such vibrant, clear, and colorful images are reproduced! I often find myself daydreaming to when some of the pictures were taken (I have loaded family vacations & cruises on the memory card.)
Let's not forget how "brilliant" the motion sensor is on this device! What a true "treat" it is when walking past, and you are surprised with a fantastic slide-show of your favorite shots (have not tried video yet, but that will be soon!)Then setting a certain amount of time to have it shutoff automatically (if no motion has crossed the sensor) .... superb!
I don't get excited to the point of writing a lengthy review, but I have to say I am so happy that I purchased this item, and will be buying more! Fantastic gift and a true enhancement to the living room and bedroom!
By the way, another "plus" is that on the manufacturer's website ([...]), there was mention of a firmware upgrade. I clicked on the link, which generated an email message, and within a few hours I received the file via email (on a SUNDAY!)
OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE AND an OUTSTANDING PRODUCT!
