Samsung wireless digital photo frame
The seven-inch photo frame can host images from your digital camera or device, with transfer via USB or memory card, courtesy of the 4-in-1 card reader.
It also allows you to playback music and movie clips too.
That’s not all - you can also pick up the SPH-72V, which offers wireless digital photo frame sharing.
You can pick up photos via your Windows Vista PC, as well as displaying photos you have uploaded to specified online galleries.
Customer reviews:
I have the SPF-72H and whilst that is merely a photo frame it is very easy to set up and as soon as you switch it on it automatically searches for your memory card and auto starts the slideshow. You are watching photos within 5 seconds of powering up.
I then bought the SPF-72V, as I thought having MP4 video playback would be a nice touch and also MP3 background music for the slideshows. Whilst all these functions work (eventually) it is very laborious getting to them. When you switch on you are taking to the home menu, where you have to use the annoying side buttons to toggle between PHOTOS, MOVIES, MUSIC, SETTINGS etc… then when you have selected the chosen media it then for some reason defaults to its internal memory, you then have to go into a different sub-menu to select play from memory card or USB stick, and at last you get to play your slideshow, video or music.
This wouldn’t be as frustrating if it came with a remote control to navigate the onscreen menus but it doesn’t and believe me using the side buttons is a pain as you have to lift up the frame and keep turning to make sure your hitting the right buttons whilst checking on screen at the same time.
On video playback I also could not find anywhere to forward/rewind the picture, as soon as you press the side buttons it starts from the beginning again! Arrghhh!
I have not used the Wi-Fi as I was not interested in this part so cannot comment there.
In conclusion a lovely looking well built frame, identical to the SPF-72H. If you soley want to view photos get the SPF-72H. If you want the extra functions then try the SPF-72V but I’ll stick with my photo only 72H for now until Samsung come up with a much needed remote control function.
