Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Tao 89862 1.4-Inch Square Digital Picture Keychain (Black)
Customer Review: Save your money- can you say "pixelated"?
Summary: 1 Stars
I am SO disappointed. I had a fight with my hubby over this- I said this would be such a lovely gift for his step mother - he said "she wants a gift card for Christmas" - I defended this item as a great present. Boy, was I wrong. The packaging is amazingly classy and beautiful. That must be what I paid for. The CD instructions give me choices- I can go to Menual Instructions, Regesteration, or Install - so the technical writers creating the CD didn't proofread or let an English speaker test their product.
But the real problem, the one that forces me to pack the item back up in the pretty box, is the pixelation - the resolution SUCKS, absolutely SUCKS. This product completely fails in its main objective. Shame on TAO.
Customer Review: Cell phone or iPod is more practical for pics
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this for my wife a year ago as a Valentine's day gift.
Over the last year, she's used it maybe 3 or 4 times.
It's simply not practical to have an extra device that requires access and charging. The display is definitely a little fuzzy, as I've seen indicated in other reviews. That was never really my biggest concern, since my expectations in this price range were low. It's just the inconvenient nature of loading the photos and keeping in charged that is kind of a pain.
This is ok as a novelty item, but it will end up in your "junk drawer" sooner, rather than later. Put the money into a decent storage iPod or other music player and call it a day.
Customer Review: Digital Keychain
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered many digital photo keychains for Christmas to compare the quality. The Tao 1.4 inch digital photo keychain had the best display. This was the only one I found that had an AC adaptor which was necessary for those older individuals on my gift list who did not have a computer. To view the pictures, you should hold the keychain away from you and at a slight angle. This will yield the best picture. The only problems were you could not pick your pictures and then arrange them in the order you wished to view them. In order to be able to see the picture clearly, you must zoom in on the face. Overall, I believe this is the best digital keychain out there to date.Customer Review: Decent novelty item
Summary: 4 Stars
Bought 3 of them, 2 were bright and 1 was dark. I talked to support at TAO and they are replacing the dark one. The difference in the bright and dark was immense and the brightness really makes a difference in viewing. OK, the picture quality could be better BUT for the novel idea the price really isn't all that bad (I don't think anyway...). I would have loved to pass out digital picture frames as gifts, but since those are hard to find at under $200 each, $43 each for the concept will do. (I should mention that these are for people who take tons of digital pictures and enjoy novel things...) These come in a nice gift box too...Customer Review: Overpriced and Cheaply made
Summary: 2 Stars
I was really excited when I discovered this digital photo keychain by Tao. I bought one for my cousin as a gift and bought an extra one for myself. For 50 bucks a pop I was expecting something pretty high quality, but I am disappointed to find that the image quality is very poor. Even if you do crop the photos to fit the screen the images appear striated and pixelated. Since I know that the cost of disk memory is getting pretty cheap, and cost of a small LCD screen like this one cannot be that high, I feel like I've been ripped off. If I had known what I was getting, I wouldn't have paid more than $20.
