Matsui PF-A701W Reviews: Digital Photo Frame

+ Absolutely great value for money I'd say! Bought for my best friend, I found it v easy to set it up for her and put pictures on, good picture quality for the price and size and very attractive!

- I had a few issues getting the pictures I wanted to show up in the right order but that may well just have been me!

+ Really easy to set-up, you can use both a USB drive with pictures on or stick a camera memory card in it aswell. Good picture quality, it's a small frame but you can still see the pictures really well.
Bought it as a present for my dad, who is't very good with technology & he found it very easy to set-up.

+ Really easy to use and update content

- only bad point there is no on/off switch

+ Easy to use.

- I was disappointed by the image quality. However, I do not hink this product is a particularly bad example, especially in the price range.

+ Excellent value for money. Easy to use and I like the different picture transfer modes. Having had one given as a present I have since bought three others as presents. That should speak for its self.

- Maybe not high tec enough for some, but for a simple user like me it is enough.

+ Easy to display photos especially to take to show other people particularly elderly

- USB drive visible which destroys the visual effect. Stand easily become detached

+ Can be used with most memory cards and USB sticks

- Picture quality is poor

+ value for money

- picture could be better

+ Cheap

- Looks It

+ Good size screen. Seems well made. I like the different ways it changes between photos. Very easy to get the photos on the screen, just insert the SD card and away you go. Easy menu screens. I rated the sound as one , as I didnt know it had sound.

- Dosent seem to be able to play videos that I have taken on my camera. I think the white colour makes it look a bit cheap.

+ Is an easy to use digital photo frame, with multiple memory card options. Fits within our budget

- Feels a bit flimsy.

+ Really good value for money

- Arent' any

+ Easy to put photos on
Good transition effects
Choice of time between photo changes

- Doesn't have a feature to randomise photo slideshow
Picture quality quite pixelised when viewed close-up

+ it works and it does the job I ask of it, at such a low price you can't complain.

- I cant get it to recognise portrait pictures, it only seems to want to do pictures in landscape. This means if you do get any pictures in portrait it shows them but with big blocks of grey on either side.

+ Ease of use
Value for money

- No internal memory

+ Good picture quality

- Doesn't recognise individual folders so picks photos at random from every folder.

+ Very good value for money

- Cannot select the zooming part of the picture

+ Easy to use, plug and play

- Very basic. Not the best looking in the world.

- None

+ pleasant appearance easy to use with instructions

+ very easy to use

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Nice appearance

- Restrictions on memory cards it will accept. Instructions, particularly in respect to the acceptable size of photos i.e. memory, need to be clearer.

+ Really easy to use, just click on the 'photo' button once it's plugged in and the pics come up on a slide show

- Pictures, at least those from my digital camera, have to be reduced in size before they are accepted onto the frame. Its a bit of a nuisance when you want to have it done really quickly.

+ Great for the money

+ Easy to use, fast response, good picture quality

- Does not auto start after switch on, one must push a button to get it going.

+ For the price a fantastic product

- Resolution not perfect (but for that money it isn't going to be!)

+ Reviewer left no comment

- there is no off switch on it if you dont want it on you have to turn it off at the plug

+ Good frame to use with your USB stick. It's simple to use and takes seconds for you view your pictures once loaded onto the stick. It has a bright display screen and was very good value for money.

- Picture quality isn't fantastic but for the price I have no complaints.

+ Easy to use.

- seeing memory stick

+ Easy to get going with photos on a USB stick.
Good price

- Photo quality is good enough - about what I expected for the price. I think that you have to pay a lot more to get better quality - and you can easily pay twice/three times the price to get the same quality.

+ It has a nice design, It's easy to use, and it is good quality for money

- No alternative colours

+ Simply shows off photos with not lots of other things to navigate around. Good for people who are not very gadget familiar.

- None really given the price of the frame.

+ It is quite easy to use, though it should be - it doesn't do much!

- Looks cheap and is a bit tacky, and picture quality really isn't great. Not great value for money.

+ very easy to install pictures with a memory stick

- Reviewer left no comment

+ good price and design clean lines ,easy to use ideal for a Parent.

- needs a on off switch on the frame

+ My neice is delighted; she had it up & running in no time, & says her 'photos look great.

- None that I know of.

+ Very easy to use and set up. Excellent value for money. It is neat and compact and the cable is a decent length. I am so pleased I am planning to buy more as presents for family.

- I have seen ones that have a better picture quality but they cost more than twice the price! The stand isn't all that secure and when the frame is moved the stand has to be put back on again. My only other gripe would be that I would like a choice of frame colour!!!!

+ Picture quality, ease of use

- Would benefit from a fixed hinged stand.

+ easy enough to let grandma loose with it

- can't think of any everyone thought it great

+ Easy to use, clear picture,fits any decor

- Would like a choice of colour of frame

+ easy to use

- no remote control

+ the price was very good .

- where the buttons are to control it,bought it for older person who has athrites as has difficulty with them.

+ Easy to load images and set up. Image quality is good.

- Screen size is quite small therefore would recommend a bigger viewer. The memory stick shows at the side of the screen, so a mini memory stick should be purchased to improve the aesthetics.

+ easy to use quite cheap

- poor picture quality. No shuffle

+ very easy to use

- not found any yet

+ Easy to use, smart, good picture quality

- None that I can think of

+ Easy to use. Smart looking product, with a good size screen

- None

+ good value for money.

- none

+ The frame was easy to use and very logical for the technophobe! The picture quality is good and represents good value for money.

- A choice of colours for the frame itself would be good,

+ It was excellent value, very easy to use as you just take the memory card out of the camera and put it straight in to the back of the frame.

- I opted for the 7'' instead of 6'' but although the screen is 7'' the size of the photo is only showing as 6'' anyways, with a black space either side of the photograph, so may as well just got the smaller one>? The arm that holds up the frame is detachable and with a slight knock it falls off.

+ Really good value; easy to use. Hadn't had a digital frame before and didn't want to spend a fortune on one so this was an excellent buy!!

- You can't rotate the picture and save the changes on the actual frame; have to either do it every time you switch it on or save the pictures the correct way around to memory stick/disc before use.

+ stable base can be landscape or portrait.

- No other colour options

+ Nice looking, compact. Easy to use

- None found yet

+ price

+ Easy to set up and sturdy. Bought two as presents so not too sure about some aspects but set one of them up easily.

- Only one I can think of is that it does not hang on the wall but the stand looks very good.

+ cheap

- very bad picture quality, especially for a 7"

+ The product is fit for purpose and considering the low price is highly recommended for those who require a digital frame for home use. It was an ideal gift for my grandmother who is enjoying watching her grandchildren and great grandchildren on this smart little frame.

- None really to speak of!

+ price

- picture quality

+ Very easy to get started - easy to load photos and you just switch on and that's it.

- No shuffle option for picture sequence.

+ easy to use. good picture quality

+ Simple to use, reasonably priced

+ Really good value for money - easy to use, attractive even when not in use, not obtrusive. We bought 2 frames for older relatives who were absolutely thrilled and found the digiframes easy to use.

- Pictures of different orientation to frame are rather small though ( ie portrait pictures when frame used as landscape).
