This review evaluates the “WiFi Digital Photo Frame” made by AORPDD.

The product was well protected in its packaging; all components are snugly contained in a form-fitting block. What’s in the box: one (1) photo frame, one (1) AC/DC power transformer adapter, a removable plastic stand leg, and an owner’s manual.

I tested the product using two devices: my Apple iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone SE. All devices were running the most current IOS 15.4 software.

First impressions: The frame was stylish and well-made; fitting in nicely with most decors. Note: You will need a cellphone or a tablet to configure and use this frame. Prior to setting up the frame, you need to download the “FRAMEO” App to your cellphone or a tablet and sign-up for a free account (username & email). The set-up was easy and straightforward with the on-screen directions on the frame. You open your App and enter a code from your frame that “binds” the frame to your phone/tablet. Now you can select this frame within your App and send pictures to it. The frame also has a feature where you can give a friend or family member an automatically generated 6-digit numeric code that allows them to bind to your frame temporarily (code expires in 24 hours and with it the temporary permission) and send you pictures from anywhere in the world. This is handy if you don’t want someone to have “carte blanche” permissions to send unwanted pictures forever at their whim. Think about if you break up with your girlfriend or boyfriend or all of a sudden you can’t stand your best friend. The great feature of having a frame code is you can set up a frame on your phone/tablet and gift it to a relative who is technically illiterate; thereby allowing them the joy of receiving new pictures from you from anywhere in the world without any intervention on their part (other than plugging the frame into their AC power outlet).

The pictures and short video clips I sent to my frame were bright with excellent image quality and could be viewed clearly at a decent angle.

The only major criticisms I have are: 1.) The micro SD slot is very hard to access and the spring-loaded slot is hard to depress and release the card, 2.) It would be great to have an external port to hook up a portable hard drive. However, each of these criticisms isn’t a deal-breaker for me.

Cost-effectiveness and value: At a current price of $139.99, this digital picture frame is at the high-end of the market but well worth the price for the quality or functionality delivered.

In summary: the “WiFi Digital Photo Frame” made by AORPDD is quality made and can receive pictures from people anywhere in the world effortlessly. This frame is not only a beautiful addition to your home, but it also makes an awesome gift that keeps on giving to that special person in your life. I would recommend this product without reservation.
