Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Axion AXN-9905 9-Inch LCD Digital Picture FrameCustomer Review: Decent value, but not a good overall product Summary: 2 Stars
Pros:
- Low price (as far as picture frames go)
- Accepts many kinds of memory cards, including USB flash drives
- Remote included
Cons:
- Resolution is bad.
- Cannot randomize pictures (they show up in the same order all the time)
- Clock feature was defective on my unit
Overall, I would NOT recommend this product. I bought it as a present for my mother and I was disappointed with the quality of the picture as well as a few other bugs.
As I mentioned, the picture is bad. If you're looking directly at the frame from a good distance away (6-7 feet), it looks alright, but it's all downhill from there. If you get too close the images are grainy and there's very little visibility from the side (which has more to do with LCD than it does this frame in particular).
When we don't have pictures playing on the frame, we set it to the 'clock' mode, which displays a full-screen clock. Seems like a pretty good idea, but the time on this particular unit continuously changes itself. No matter how many times I go into the settings and change the time to the correct time, it constantly changes itself every few hours.
Finally, I was disappointed when I discovered that this frame does not have the capability to 'shuffle' pictures. This may have been an oversight on my part, because I simply assumed that all frames did this, but I found out the hard way that I was wrong. It may not seem like a big deal, but it gets a little annoying. If you load 20 pictures from the beach, then 20 pictures from a wedding, then 20 pictures from a birthday party, you're going to see ALL 20 beach pictures, then ALL 20 wedding pictures, etc. etc. It's easy to lose interest when all the pictures are from the same thing.
Like I said.. the price is good, but that's about all this thing has going for it. Don't make the same mistake I did; spend a few extra bucks and get a decent frame.
