Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought one on a whim in pink for my wife. I was skeptical at first, having tried cheap photo display items like this before, but this one actually works pretty well.
Yep, the screen resolution isn't HD quality, but for a 3/4" by 1/2" screen, it's fine. What was a pleasant surprise is how easy it is to use.
I wanted to load it up with the family photos before I gave it to her (which unfortunately means ripping it out of that ridiculous sealed-for-the-apocalypse packaging). The internal battery was charged, I turned it on (the instructions are pretty bad) and it worked. It has a few photos they loaded on there as a demo.
It's actually simple to use - it comes with a USB cable and I plugged it in and it automatically brings up a nice little software application that allows you to navigate through any photos on your hard disk, then select them and load them into the necklace. Pretty easy and I didn't need the instructions to figure it out.
What's cool is that I didn't have to do anything to the photos to compress them - somehow it takes like 10 MP photos and does a very good job of re-analyzing them and getting them into the 3/4" by 1/2" screen format. Amazing! Click "Download" and they're saved on the device and you're ready to go.
It has a built-in slide show with nice little random transitions from one photo to the next. You can change some of the settings, like backlighting, how long the photos are displayed and etc., but I didn't mess with it and it works fine.
I haven't had to recharge it yet, believe it or not -- there's a little button that turns it on and off, and my wife has it hanging on her ID necklace from work and she turns it on occasionally for other people to see and admire. A couple of other buttons allow you to scroll back and forth between photos if you'd like, but I think it works best in automatic slide show mode.
The battery charges via the USB port and here's a tip: you don't have to keep your computer running all the time to recharge it -- if you have a powered USB hub, it has power going to it all the time from the wall, so just plug the necklace (or any other USB charged device) into the powered USB hub and it will recharge whether your computer is on or not.
Bottom line - this is a pretty cool little trinket, my wife loves it and everyone who sees it thinks it's amazing. The screen resolution isn't great but who cares? It's a load of fun.
