Summary: Not the Greatest
Comment: Easy enough to use, but even with the relatively small screen, the maximum resolution of 320 x 248 (or 320 x 234, depending on which part of the manual you believe) gives the photographs displayed an appearance which is less than what I expected. Manual has such helpful instructions as, "Since the LCD panel only displays a photo with resolution of 720 dpi (dot per inch) and the size of it 320 x 234. Follow the procedure below to load photos into the frame: Allocate a USB cable...During Operation System, remove the USB slave of the digital frame then put out the USB cable, quit out from USB mode."

I'd not buy it again. I relied on another review which said the display was the best when compared with other frames in a store. My display is certainly less sharp, less bright, and more posterized than other frames I've seen.

The remote also seems very finicky, sometimes only working from within a few inches and sometimes working from across the room.

Summary: Nice frame, but a little difficult to upload pictures
Comment: I really like how the frame looks, it not quite as modern looking as many of the digital frames, and the picture quality is also pretty good. We did have some difficulty loading pictures from the computer to the frame, but I am not sure if that was a problem with the computer or the frame. The frame worked well with the memory card. Overall I am happy with the purchase.

Summary: JPGs need to be saved as lossless
Comment: If you're reading this and are having trouble getting your frame to display your images, the photo files must to be "baseline (lossless) RGB jpg files". It took us 10 hours to figure this out -- some of our images displayed and some didn't, and we couldn't figure out why. Turns out some of our jpg files were progressive and thus couldn't be displayed by the frame. To fix them, we opened them in Windows Paint and did a "save as" jpg, and they were corrected. I hope this will save someone else ten hours of frustration!

I thought the display was nice. We also bought a Digital Spectrum frame at the same time, and the Tao frame had better image quality (sharper, brighter).

Btw, the manual is pretty horrible. I think it was written in Mandarin and then machine-translated to English -- some of the phrases make no sense at all.

Summary: LOVED IT!
Comment: Easy to use. Pictures look good. Went to local store and compared picture quality and this one was the best. Easy to operate. Instruction book easy to follow. Am very excited about giving it to my Mother for Christmas. Far exceeded my expectations.
