Good Frame But You Need To Know....
By Probe
I'm happy with the physical hardware of the frame but the operation can become very clunky depending on what type of pictures you load onto it. Certain files will render the frame almost useless. I found Nix tech support very responsive, but was left wondering why they did not include the information they provided me in the owner's manual (and thus, my 4-stars). Here's what you need to know. Each size frame has an optimum resolution and "DPI", and your pictures should be sized / re-sized in accordance with it. The 15" frame's resolution is 1280 x 800, with a DPI of 72. Tech support told me that a DPI of 300 for example, will cause the frame to "stop, freeze, pixelate, or skip the photo altogether". Additionally, all photos have to meet certain naming criteria. The re-sizing and re-naming can be accomplished easily with certain programs such as 'FastStone Photo Resizer' (which is free). Here are two excellent links describing the process you need to follow. Once I did this, my frame started working great.

Good for the $
By Branch
Frame works as described by other reviewers. Software is definitely clunky but workable. Note that you need to scroll down (arrow key) to get to the second menu page to set screen brightness, motion detector, etc. Resolution/clarity is OK on the 15" screen, but this is no Apple Retina Display (nor does it cost as much). Viewing angle is fairly tight, so this is probably not the "monitor" to use for a large room.

Plays JPEGs nicely, but video is lousy.
By Carl
Don't buy this if you want to play video, but the still image display is satisfactory. The description of this item says the display is 1024x768 and it plays MPEG-4 and AVI video. It won't play MPEG-4 video though. Their website support makes statements that basically say the variation of video formats is quite a problem and don't be surprised if you get lousy results. They recommend a video converter program called "Any Video Converter," and their instructions tell you to convert your video with this software to AVI format at 720x576 only. Their statement is "THESE ARE THE ONLY SETTINGS YOU CAN USE FOR THIS FRAME." An AVI file at 720x576 produces pixelated video that is very poor quality. Also on their website they mention that it will also play MPEG2 and MPEG-2 video. I tried these two formats and the results were even worse than the AVI.

Surprisingly Awesome, Amazing Picture.
By G.B.
First let me say I am a tech nut and have a good eye for flaws in technology products. Upon booting this up with an SD card inserted, it immediately starts playing my pictures. So even if you're an idiot, using this should not be difficult, at all.

The screen is VERY high quality for a photo frame. Colors are vivid and the viewing angle is VERY good. You will notice almost no degradation in the image at any left or right angle, or from the top. The only time the image degrades is if you look at it from below - almost every photo frame I've seen does this though. Make sure the frame sits at or below whatever level people will be at when they look at it and you're fine.

Another note, when I received the frame, photos were sharp but dull. I turned the Saturation setting all the way up and now photos have perfect color (not oversaturated, the way they should look). So be aware of this if colors look a bit dull upon first use. I didn't need to change any other settings.

Of note too is that this frame does a phenomenal job of shrinking down large photos to fit the frame. It uses 'bicubic sharper' reduction so the images retain incredible sharpness when reduced in size by the frame to fit the screen.

The motion sensor works perfectly. No false alarms and no having it turn off when I'm sitting right in front of it.

Having used Sony and a host of others in the past, they aren't even close. I highly recommend this frame.

EDIT: It came across my attention that NIX is asking people who buy this to rate it 5 stars on Amazon for a chance to win something. Mine did not come with this card asking for a review nor was I asked to or paid to post this review. I posted it simply because the frame is very nice.

Also some people mentioned the transitions on this frame are bad. I don't use them so I have no idea. I'm more concerned with the photos than some effect to change the photo. Buying a photo frame because you like the transitions is like buying a car because you like the sound it makes when you put the key in.

"ok" digital frame, but they game dumb Amazon.com customers
By Christos G
Cheap frame, almost all of the transition effects look like a 486 dx2 66mhz PC trying to run Crysis at 1080p.

You have to display this in landscape, horizontal has a viewing angle of "stand still and stare right at it, not even a degree off".

Oh, and the final thing, the first thing that pops out of the box, is a large printed card that says, "if you rate us 5 stars on Amazon, email us your review on Amazon.com and you may win another free picture frame!"

So, take every single review here with a grain of salt. The frame works, sort of, but all of these reviews are biased due to this cheating system they've implemented. They get 2 stars for being clever with marketing. Don't sell yourself out for a poor product, it isn't worth it.

Great! Very easy to use
By Leo
Purchased this for my father for his birthday. Incredibly simple to use!

1. Adjust the settings(time, motion sensor, brightness, etc)

2. Fill SD card with pictures(I haven't yet used it for videos)

3. Place it somewhere with a power outlet.

That's it! You don't need to do anything else! The motion sensor is great, the frame automatically turns itself on when it senses something moving in front of it. You definitely can't go wrong with this, especially at this price!

They do include a remote to control the settings and things from a distance, though personally I don't have a need for it.

Looks, feels, works great
By Apple user
This screen is the same type of high def screen that the iPhone 4 comes with. You cant see pixels. It's the same.
If you compare it to an iPhone screen you can see that the whites are slightly different but you can't tell if you just look at the phone by itself.
The glass seems the same to me. I see reviews that say their is a different feel to the glass. I held both in my hands and I can't see much of a difference. I can't feel much of a difference. I was worried their would be. Don't worry about it.
This is a great price and a perfect replacement. Buy it. It looks and feels perfect. I'm very happy with it.
The replacement is easy if you use the youtube video and use a magnetic tray that you draw on. There are 7 or 8 different types of screws. Make it easy on yourself to know where they go. I drew a large version of the phone and placed the screws where I found them in the phone. Made it easy.

I did about 3 hours of research on iPhone 4 replacement screens. What I learned.
- Don't buy a touch screen only. It wont work. You need the screen and lcd display.
- Nobody has a OEM screen. Their are close copies but if you want an Apple screen you need to return you screen to Apple. This screen is the same as you will get from the video making websites that sell them for $100
- Some screens out there have plastic screens. They scratch. Don't buy them.
- When they changed the screw in the bottom of the iphone they didn't send the correct screw driver for a while. They send the correct screw driver now.
- Many people don't know that you need to use the phone speaker screen that your phone comes with. This screen doesn't come with one because you already have one.

POOR QUALITY
By joan p
I own a small electronics repair business, and focus largely on smartphone repair. I order thousands of dollars a month in parts for phones and laptops, so I see a lot product through my office.
These are easily the worst screens I've seen. I order 6 of them at the same time and I had issues each one. It's natural that aftermarket screens won't fit as well as the original Apple screen, that is expected, but these are usable for me. First, they are too thick, forcing me to use a filler under the home button to bring it to screen level, second, the margins around the screen are off, covering the entire aluminium casing. Third, the plastic bezel surrounding the glass digitizer isn't properly adhered to the glass causing it to come loose and prevent the digitizer from seating to the case well.
In addition to the build of these parts, several of the screens didn't work at all. One had a bad LCD and another had a cut ribbon cable. There are several other options for this screen from other sellers that are much better quality and about the same price. I for one, will never buy a product from this seller again if I can avoid it.

Read this review before you buy!
By Seth F.
This item arrived quickly and went together ok but there were three serious issues I experienced:

1.) Unit had no instructions--which is fine because I followed a Youtube video; however, it would have been helpful if a note/link to the exact Youtube video was included as described below.

2.) Unit DOESN'T come with a wire mesh piece that attaches underneath the front glass plate (where you put your ear). Consequently I now have a hole in the face of my iPhone through which i can see the inside circuitboard, etc. At this point, I shouldn't use my iphone at the gym or in the rain because water can enter the phone. I started to repair this by taking it apart to use the grill from my old cracked glass, but I stripped the screws holding the glass to the steel outer casing with the provided screwdriver and could not get it apart again.

3.) Company provided all the necessary tools; however, the task would have been an order of magnitude easier with a MAGNETIC phillips head screwdriver since the screws holding the innards of the iphone 4 together are tiny, to say the least.

I WOULD buy this again, but I would make sure to find a Youtube video showing assembly/dissasembly specifically for "buyiparts" and I would purchase my own micro sized MAGNETIC "watch repair" screwdriver.
