 Great frame for the priceDec 29, 2007
By J. May
"tobscholarly"
I read lots of reviews on products before I purchase them. Don't we all? So as I am looking for a digital photo frame for my mom's gift for Christmas, I begin to get swept away by the MANY reviews regarding these frames. "The ratio is incorrect" "The qualiy is subpar" "I cannot program the [insert technical phrase] wih this product". Now I am thinking that my $60 gift is going to turn into a $200 gift, just so I can insure I am not giving my mom a blurry, difficult to work piece of junk!
Well, I take a breather, step back from the computer and reassess. Neither my mom nor myself do photography as a hobby. I have a nice 7MP camera whose setting is mostly on "General Use". I have NEVER used the Manual Focus feature. I consider the picure a success if I can either A)Print it out as a 3 1/2 x 4 to show to others or B) I can view it on my computer without squinting my eyes in an effort to figure out what I am looking at.
To make a long review endless: This frame is perfect. It supports most memory cards so you can load as many pictures as you would like. There are less than 8 buttons, all of which are clearly labelled, which makes my mom happy. She got it working in less than 5 minutes. The pictures looked just like they did on my computer monitor - my kids' cuteness projected well.:)
If you are a camera geek (a fond term, nothing mean intended here), you may want more than this frame can offer. But for those of us who are casual picture takers and simply want to pass on the memories, this item was just right.

 Great Picture, Good Value, Poor Plastic, Program QuirksApr 26, 2007
By J. Holdahl
"GreenShoes"
Easy to get up and running, the unit goes into slideshow mode after power on automatically. Picture quality was excellent. Easy to put pictures on a memory card and have them show up. Recommend re-cropping your pictures to 16x9 aspect ratio so you get a full picture. Unit can accomodate std. 4x6 format as well, but will not fill the screen. Small Quirks are:
- When in slideshow mode, you can't hit the pause button to ZOOM in.
- Very poorly designed stand that WILL collapse after a couple of weeks.
- Documentation is lacking (typical COBY style)
- No support for QuickTime video popular in some digital cameras
- Unit has a faint lingering glow on screen after power down which doesn't go away unless you unplug the unit.

A few probsAug 24, 2007
By Damon Edwards
This product has served the purpose my wife wanted it to. One thing I wish I knew before I bought this item is it will not play mp3s and show pics at the same time. It does have one glitch that is not a serious problem. When the unit gets warm from use, it will put lines through a picture every now and then. The only other thing I would make sure of is that you have some sort of extra external memory card. This unit does not have internal memory of any sort. Jump drives are cheap and easy to use though!

 Grainy picture qualityDec 04, 2007
By Hap's Market
Diappointing picture quality. The online product overview states 'crisp picture', but I found it very grainy or pixelated (& I used high res digital photos from a new camera). It also had trouble reading 2 different SD cards, but I got it to work with the 3rd one. Manual is vague. Please note there are buttons on the top of frame to deal with the onscreen menu, although it looks like it should be touch screen. The frame is nice looking & has a nice finish. It doesn't look like wood, but it has a nice molded shape. Also has a small power brick. I'm returning the two I bought for gifts (drat).

 Very DisappointingDec 07, 2007
By Russell B.
"EnigmaOfTime"
I guess a middle aged person like myself should know you almost always get what you pay for and that is certainly the case with the Coby DP-758 7-Inch Widescreen photo frame. Sure it's attractive enough with a well finished removable frame, but as soon as the power switch goes on it is apparent this is no bargain. Very grainy display, apparent even in the menu. Pixel quality is VERY poor, regardless of the original photo quality. No amount of photo editing resulted in a better quality image. Incidentally, this is a 3x5 aspect ratio frame, and even though the description touts the 16:9 ratio its a little shocking to see it on a frame this small. The stock photo married to the description is NOT what this looks like, not nearly as tall. I'm not normally a buy and return guy but I bought 2 and returned them both, opting instead for 2 Philips 6.5 inch in the clear and black frame. Received them today and the difference is unbelievable.The Philips have a very sharp display and are easy to use. Amazon handled everything A+ as usaual
