Pros:Nicely enhanced bright colors; Simple interface; Play background music; Takes most memory media; RemoteCons:Shabby bacpanel construction; Photos cannot be randomized; The colors of the pics seen in the frame are amazingly bright, and even low resolution pics look great on this screen. The musical playback is great feature, though I haven't found a way of turning it off. It can give a surreal or nostalgic effect depending on your pics.The interface is simple, with minimal buttons. Its capable of reading almost any kind of media including USB stick, compact flash cards, MMC and SD cards. With an internal memory of 128 MB and almost unlimited external media memory, one can literally enjoy their entire life's albums on this beautiful digital photo frame.I have never used the remote, but its a cool feature to have on this gadget.Although, the front panel of the frame looks elegant, the finishing of the back-panel is a bit shoddy. The actual electronic display is held inside a plastic frame with the help of 4 screws, but the two surfaces don't flush onto each other very well, giving it an uneven level difference. The screws also go into the panel at random angle because of the level difference.Leave the screen on for more than 2 hrs and it will melt down all the stuff within 3 ft from it! The big screen dissipates a lot of heat. I haven¿t seen if other frames give out as much heat as well, but this seems to get a bit too hot!A couple of features that I thought were missing was the ability to randomize the pics on the media and to turn off the music if wanted. But for all the other good features that it has, losing out on these two is not a big deal for me.A happy customer and recommended till another superior piece comes in the market at a lower price!
