 battery is about to explode August 10, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Gave this as a gift to parents 12/2006. Has been working fine, but as my brother was going to upload more photos onto the card he found the back of the unit bulging out about half an inch. Turns out it is the battery growing larger and certainly will explode in time.
Wondering if anyone else has had this problem - I couldn't find any recall notices on the web.
User inteface is terrible and documentation worse August 5, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I received this as a gift, along with a memory card with pictures, and figuring out how to transfer the pictures from the memory card to the device was unnecessary painful. In the menus, there is no visual choice for returning to the previous menu, or cancelling. You have to find out how to do it by carefully reading the documentation. Don't give this to someone unless you can spend some time with them helping them figure it out.
 the 9 inch, which is 8 inch, Philips Digital Picture Frame, Metal August 5, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
The performance of this product is outstanding. The size of this item is not quite 8.2 inches, or really barely over 8 inches, yet has been noted as a 9 inch frame. That keeps me from rating this as five star. When pricing digital frames, I looked at 9 inch frames for comparison.
The nicest features of this unit includes the automatic rotation when turning the frame from landscape to portrait, even when held in hand, back and forth. A very nice display, and you can even have the time display as well.
Again, I would have given this five stars if it was advertised/sold/represented as a 8 inch digital frame. If I wasn't already late for the gift presentation, I would have sent it back and asked for refund of the expedited shipping costs.
 Problems with using a Mac with this, also chip August 5, 2008
2 out of 5 found this review helpful
Warning - I bought this product after a great experience with the smaller frame but I have had two big problems. (1) - a product problem= It would not accept photo transfers from my Mac laptop as the mac laptop disconnected the USB connection saying it was drawing excessive power (I have never had this problem before and it happened twice) - note that there are quite a lot of posts on the smaller Phillips frame reporting extensive problems with macs both at the operating system, hardware and photosoftware level (2) - an instructions plus user problem it turns out it seemed not to take the memory chip used by either my Sony or HP digital cameras which are reasonably popular makes but the slot looks to a reasonably sensible consumer as if it is the right one (and the paper instructions are misleading) so I jammed the slot which lost me my chip and incapacitated the slot ! Be warned.
So I would be (very) wary if you are a Mac user or if you assume that a popular camera memory chip will work with this without very carefully checking. A disappointment considering how much I liked the smaller frame, which I loaded direct from camera.
dissapointment July 21, 2008

I spent a lot of time to organize my photos on the computer renaming them so they all are in proper time sequence. Guess what, the frame does not recognize the decimal order such that numbers 11 jumps ahad of number 2 like it was a binary code not a decimal number!
Another thing is that the frame cuts the top of the photos and displays two different size images for the same photo in its setup menu.
