It’s a way to keep in touch with friends and family from afar, and a way to let them know that you’re always with them… even if you can’t be there physically. Unlike regular photo frames, which hold one static, physical photograph, digital picture frames can display dozens of photos that you can set to cycle through the screen. A digital picture frame is something that people don’t normally think of buying for themselves, but it’s a gift that’s rooted in relationships and easy to personalize. Hear me out: every single person that I have gifted a digital photo frame to has either a) burst into tears of joy or b) come back with the, “Why didn’t I think of this?” response.Īnd it’s easy to see why. Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and while there are countless gift guides online ( ours included), I promise that few gifts will be as well-received (and well-liked) as a digital picture frame. Though its imposing size is commanding, and it requires some extra room on the table or wall to really shine, if you have the space for this 15.6-inch full HD beauty, it will inspire you every day with the great artists of the world - or your own snaps.If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, Rolling Stone may receive an affiliate commission. Other high resolution digital frames we looked at, like the Aura Mason and Carver, Dragon Touch, Nixplay, and PhotoSpring, are much smaller or tabletop only.

The Meural WiFi Photo Frame gives you the full HD treatment for professional artwork as well as your favorite photos and videos, and is one of the best ways to showcase visual art, with excellent color reproduction and lifelike skin tones. The app also lets you set the length of time an image should be on the screen and how images should be displayed such as stretching or filling to fit the entire canvas. Place your hand close enough to the screen, and the frame flashes a Gesture Here notification to indicate where on the screen you should wave to see the next or previous image, a menu of all images in your playlist, or overlay image annotations which, for established artists are like curated descriptions in an art gallery. The idea of saving users from marring the screen or losing track of a remote is a first for consumer photo frames and it’s a great concept. The most problematic aspect of the Meural frame is the gesture-based interface. Meural WiFi Photo Frame review: Interface While the frame’s 16:9 display automatically displays images in the correct orientation - you must specifically set the app’s orientation match feature on or off to see both or either orientation. Color reproduction is true to life without being too saturated, and the frame can work on various levels of ambient room brightness, as set in its app. The Meural WiFi Photo Frame's anti-glare coating holds an impressively clear picture from any angle, while gesture controls let you navigate your photo albums and settings.
