A Review of AKAI’s New Digital Picture Frame
AKAI has lately introduced a very big, 15” Digital Picture Frame to the marketplace. The dimension of the frame is impressive, and it will bring out the details of your pics, making them more pleasant to see. It is not full of features, which is actually a positive aspect, which depends on who you are. If you are a novice individual who simply wants to have a digital picture frame to display the pictures of loved ones and photos of your vacations and your masterpieces, then this AKAI digital picture frame is just what you have asked for.
The AKAI digital lcd frame has a glossy frame that gives off a look of quality. The glossiness has also been used on the screen. The build material is outstanding, giving this item a great first-impression.
The AKAI digital picture frame includes both USB and mini-USB ports. In addition, the AKAI digital LCD frame incorporates JPEG photo format, MPEG1, MPEG2, and MPEG4 video formats, and MP3 audio format.
A shortcoming of this digital LCD frame is its lack of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Today, the newer digital picture frames are moving into the market with both of these technologies included, that allow you to (for example), employ Wi-Fi to easily download pics from the PC or laptop to the digital picture frame for viewing or for a slideshow. But as mentioned in the beginning of the article, this AKAI digital picture frame is best for novice users that do not understand a thing about Bluetooth or Wi-Fi and how to work them. Imagine this, would you like to explain what Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are to your 80 years old grandfather or different ways of using them?
Another shortcoming is the lack of memory. If there is internal memory, you can store your pictures or videos in the digital picture frame. But instead, you must always plug in the memory card to the AKAI unit should you want to show your photos. Another thing that can be done is to attach the digital camera, which is even worst. Even so, let us remind ourselves that this AKAI is best suited for amateur people, for example, you may want to present the AKAI to the grandparents or parents with an SD card that is already full of pics of the kids, etc. I imagine that this is the idea behind this one AKAI photo frame.
