Picture frame that does not require power cable to display photos and videos / 05.10.2009 05:16
Picture frames that can display digital photos and videos are kind of electronic products that even our grandma is happy to use. Typically, a digital photo frame is easy to use, because there is only one thing to do; to display photos. Only one or two buttons is required; one button to switch the device on and another one to advance the slideshow to the next picture. The most advanced frame models, like this one we recently reviewed, let the user download images from Internet photo albums as well. There is, however, a feature we haven't appreciated in many picture frames; they have to be connected to a power source. You have a nice frame on a bookshelf, but you can't take it to the sofa and pass it around among friends, because the power cable prohibits moving the frame. No more, because Philips has introduced a portable picture frame with a battery as its power source.
The Philips SPH8008 digital photo frame can be moved from room to room or passed from hand to hand. The picture frame comes with rechargeable battery that can provide two hours worth of energy to the device. The included desk stand acts as a charging station for the battery. The color screen is 8 inches in size. The resolution is 800x600 pixels. The display on the Philips SPH8008 is not touch sensitive, but the control keys on the side panel are touch sensitive.
There are three ways to copy photos and videos to the Philips photo frame. It is possible to transmit media files from a mobile phone to the frame via Bluetooth. Because memory cards can be inserted into the frame, pictures stored on a camera memory card can be displayed as well. Videos and photos from a PC can be transferred via USB cable to the frame's internal 1GB storage space. JPG photos up to 10MB in size and MPEG1, MPEG4, AVI, MOV videos are compatible with the frame. The Philips SPH8008 can also play MP3 music tracks.
