    22 July 2008

    The Sony DPF-V900 has a lot to like about it; the fantastic display is its best asset. The biggest probem we have is that at this price point ($250 MSRP) we want WiFi. Sony opted to skip wireless and added HDMI instead. If you want HDMI, this frame is perfect for you, but we think the audience for such a product is pretty small and fullyexpect to see WiFi next time around. Read more

    • Fantastic display, Good amount of included storage, Automatic fit to screen function makes it easy to load photos to the frame, HDMI lets you view images on an HDTV
    • No WiFi, HDMI won’t appeal to most buyers

    I am glad to say that she absolutely loves it. And after seeing it in her house a few times I must say that it made me change my mind about digital photo frames. It really does add a lot of beauty to the home. Read more

    Stylish and easy to use, the Sony DPF-V900 will look great in your home. But it’s not cheap, and the image quality doesn’t convince. Read more

  1. Great Picture Quality, Holds up over time, and Works Perfectly if you use it Correctly

    I have had this frame for 3 years (Purchased Dec. 1, 2008) and it works and looks just as good as the day I received it. It is easy to use and made even easier if you purchase a Bluetooth USB Adaptor to transfer your pictures directly from your camera, phone or computer like the one I got here: Sony DPPA-BT1 Bluetooth USB Adaptor (Silver) . It has many features that I never typically use, but it is always better to have more then not enough. Read more

  2. My 83 yr old Mom dearly loves her frame

    It's easy enough for my 83 yr old Mom to figure out the features. She said having the frame beside her at night with the slide show playing helps her to feel less lonely. Since I initially loaded 999 pictures into external memory, I suggested to her to use the internal memory for her very favorite photos. That way she did not have to scroll through all 999 photos to show someone a favorite. Read more

    • Attractive Design, Clear Image, Easy To Use, Quality Construction

    This frame lets you pop a multi-gig memory stick into it, after you have offloaded your camera's picture onto your computer and loaded your favorites onto the memory stick. Buy an HDMI cable and you can watch your favorite pictures on your HDTV. Easy to set up, slick frame remote, technology perfect for grandparents (me). Read more
