Static photos are great and yours likely capture some very important moments of your life that only exist on printed photo paper — for everything else, it’s a really great idea to invest in a digital picture frame. Essentially, we’re talking about a very simple and smart tablet-like display that can show whatever digital photos you send it. Trips, parties, anniversaries — whatever you’ve been experiencing is up for a second turn with a constant stream of your favorite snapshots. Choosing the best one for you might get tricky with the many options out there, so we rounded up the best-selling and highest-rated options on Amazon, meaning you can trust you’re getting quality and shipping will be a breeze.
Coming in with a wood style finish and clocking in at the more affordable $80, the BSIMB gives you nearly the same resolution as the above options and it can be mounted on the wall, which is a really interesting feature, as is the remote control that lets you swipe through photos from afar.
This widescreen model from Nixplay is the No.1 best-selling digital picture frame. Nearly 3,500 reviewers have left it a 4.2-star average rating and it’s super easy to use, letting you share photos through your phone or even straight by email. The brand’s app is available on Apple and Android phones and you can create private albums with family and friends. A simple motion detector knows when you’re home and turns the frame off when you leave. You can also connect your social networks and pull photos directly from them.
There’s no special software required with this frame option, just add a USB drive or your camera’s memory card and your photos are displayed instantly. This picture frame even has the ability to turn into a clock or calendar, or play music.
This frame gets loaded with pictures via email, which is as simple as it gets. The touchscreen display is bright and responsive and is easy to set up, just plug in and enjoy.
