Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Matsunichi Photoblitz 5.6-Inch 4:3 Digital Picture Frame
Customer Review: Not bad for this pricepoint
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a good product. It is not amazing; but for this price point it is nice. This is just a Christmas present for my Mother in Law who loves pictures of my son, so this is perfect for that type of thing. If you are looking for a high resolution frame that will make your pictures look awesome, you are in the wrong place.
The picture quality is OK. The larger the objects in the shot are the better it comes through. Since it is low resolution, smaller items in the pictures look a little pixelated. So you might want to crop junk out of the pictures before you put it on the memory stick.
The frame itself is just a black plastic frame, so it will "go" with pretty much any decor.
It is really easy to use. I just pulled it out of the box, threw my memory card in it, plugged it in and the slide show started. There are a few features to adjust the slideshow to make it do what you want and there is a clock option on it.
So basically,
If you are looking for an affordable digital frame for a grandma (or an aunt, friend, etc.) that is user friendly and looks halfway decent; this is a nice option to consider.
But if you are looking for a beautiful, crisp picture display to show off your photography skills after your Italian countryside honeymoon, this is not the product for you. Check out the $130 Kodak one with the interchangeable faceplates if that's what you want.
Customer Review: Very Satisfied
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this frame as a gift to my grandmother. Everyone is always giving her pictures in individual frames and she loves them, but she has ran out of room for them. She loved the frame and suprisingly enough knew exactly what it was when she opened it. This frame is extremely user friendly...you simply load your images onto the memory card, place the card in the reader, plug it in and turn it on. Upon receiving the frame, I loaded 5 or 6 pictures onto the card just to try it out and wasn't so sure about it because it would sit on each picture for about a minute. But after loading the maximum about on the card (about 165 on a 1G card) it picked up the pace and changed pictures about every 6-10 seconds, which is perfect! The frame automatically changes captions. There is no way to change or control that setting. The picture is very good for the price...meaning it's not crystal clear, but it is clear and very acceptable. I will keep this frame in mind and use as a gift option in the future. I am also ordering myself one. For the price it can't be beat.Customer Review: Nice

This is a first for our household. I bought one of these for my wife for Xmas. She loves it as does everyone else. I let it cycle through several hundred pictures perpetually. You can stick quite a few pics on a 2 GB SD card. I would buy more of these although larger next time. It would be nice if these were available with better looking frames (wood), an auto on/off as I have to turn it off every night and back on every morning. I notice it has a speaker but I have no clue what for. The manual wasn't much. I would and have recommended this to almost anyone. One pet peeve which I suspect is common to all photo frames is that it requires electricity. So if you decide to hang it on the wall, you have an unsightly cord running down. Perhaps someone makes on with a rechargeable LIon that lasts all month?Customer Review: Good Entry Level Frame
Summary: 4 Stars
If you look too closely you can tell the resolution isn't hi-def...but as a present for relatives whose vision isn't all htat great anyway, it's a fabulous gift. Other frames were considerably more expensive, this is inexpensive enough to buy one for each set of grandparents and wow them.
It's also extremely easy to load, just copy images to your sd or xd card, insert it in the frame, plug it in, and turn it on. It automatically puts on a slide show and even uses different transitions. I personally like the fact that it isn't overloaded with features I (or grandpa) will never use.
The only reason I gave it four stars is because sometimes an image gets distorted, but by the next loop it is fine.
Customer Review: Technology just never slows down...
Summary: 3 Stars
Two or three years ago, this would have been an amazing product. Now it is just fine for a stocking stuffer. If you can get a good price, it can make a nice gift.
The low resolution produces a somewhat grainy picture. But you can use low resolution jpg's and fit a ton on a small memory card that has outlived its usefulness for your camera in this world of $20 2GB cards.
It is very easy to setup and use. Stick in a memory card and turn it on. This is good since the instruction manual is written in somewhat broken English, despite the California address for the manufacturer.
