Nixplay Touch Frame: 10.1 inch WiFi Digital Picture Frame - Black (W10K)

Good, easy, lovely

Great present for my wife for Christmas. She has uploaded a load of photos.

I bought this Nixplay 10.1” touchscreen frame expecting a high-quality, reliable product. Initially it worked well — until a recent software update severely restricted its functionality unless you now pay for a subscription. You’re limited to just 500MB of photo storage, which holds around 150 photos. That’s less than what I have displayed in traditional frames around my home. If you exceed this limit, your photos are locked and no longer display on the frame — unless you pay extra. Google Photos integration now also requires a paid upgrade. Support provided a generic explanation about rising platform costs, but that doesn’t change the fact that this product has been downgraded after purchase. There are many digital frames on Amazon that offer 32GB of internal storage and SD card support with no subscription required. This one offers none of that anymore. Avoid Nixplay unless you’re happy paying repeatedly just to keep basic features working.

Connecting to Google Photo is really a great blessing.

▬ Introduction ▬▬▬ I have a couple of digital frames and I have to admit, this one by 'Nixplay' is the best looking frame I have owned and seen to date, it has a smart and sleek look. Even the box is very professionally presented and which gives a good sense of a "premium" feel when unboxing the product. ▬ Box Contents ▬▬▬ • Digital photo frame. • Frame Stand. • Power cable. • Wall plug and screws (optional to use). • Quick start guide. • Set-up guide. ▬ Set-Up ▬▬▬ First things first, you will need to download the 'Nixplay' app on your smart device and create an account. Once you have an account, power on the frame and follow the instructions, it's very simple to set-up the frame and get photos onto it. I would advise not mix and matching portrait orientated photos with landscape, it just doesn't look right, so I personally would recommend sticking to one or the other and go into the settings to "fill" the screen. You can adjust various settings such as the transition styles, time between each photo, set-up schedules and activate motion detection etc... ▬ Results ▬▬▬ Picture quality will depend on the photo quality you send to the frame; it features a HD screen, so if you send decent quality photos, it will display them very clearly. If you send a pixilated photo, obviously the quality won't be good and that is totally out of the frames control. With the positives aside, I feel that Nixplay are pushing it a bit with their subscription service which albeit it being an optional service, it does pressure people to sign-up if they have more than one digital frame as they cannot register and organise more than one frame without a subscription. Considering these digital frames are available at a premium price already, I think this is unacceptable. My other frames rely on the 'Frameo' app which don't require subscriptions for multiple frames. ▬ Final Thoughts ▬▬▬ It's a decent frame but I feel that if you were to take away the premium looking design, you would have a frame which works just as well as some of the cheaper brands. So it really depends on what you're looking for. If looks is of high importance, then I would recommend this digital frame if you don't mind the premium price, otherwise, there are plenty of third party brands available at a much more affordable price.

Great value and easy to set up

This is the second nixplay screen that I have bought and am really impressed with the update. I initially bought the Nixplay Seed for my elderly relatives who although have good IT interaction, would rather have a solution that is just plug and play. The initial Nixplay Seed did have its challenges and at the point that I bought it, the site and (early) app did not have French as a selectable language which would have been far easier for me. There were some issues with updating firmware on the seed at the end which was resolved by CS who are always on hand via email or by an arranged call. The service here has been second to none and they are clearly customer focussed and are totally committed to their product. As with the seed, the Touch arrived in great packaging with slick branding and is on par with major tablet manufacturers, which is ideal for gifting. The frame itself is easy to set up and looks outstanding. The touch is so easy to use, especially in conjunction with the app and it now includes French which is a great addition. The playlists are easy to select and play either in their entirety or individually via the app or touchscreen. The timers/snooze functions are as previous and the sensor is now audio rather than motion sensor which works well. If you do not opt for the nixplay plus, then you are able to upload video up to 15 seconds from the app which is more than enough. The screen is easily rotated to portrait or landscape to maximise the screen area, or the software can either clip or fill area depending on the setup if you do not want to rotate the frame. I find that having a portrait/landscape playlists and just playing one or the other is a good solution - if your are as pedantic as I am. You can also operate through Alexa now too, which is a great function for those who are not so tech savvy - once set up by someone who is. I would always recommend unpacking and setting up with the recipient if possible to set up accounts etc. or do it in your own name prior to gifting if you want to oversee the account. Once set up, it is easy to send pics through Google photos, Facebook/Instagram and email as well as their app. This is an ideal present for giving loved ones current updates - or reliving old memories if like me you are digitising your old 35mm library. The HD IPS display looks great and the 10.1 inch is an ideal all round size for viewing. The encrypted servers are GDPR compliant and although I was unsure about the longevity of using a cloud based photo frame, I am now on my second Nixplay and frankly, for ease of use, I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Super happy with this product. I think I will buy one more soon😁😁😁

Grandparents and great absolutely love it. Once its setup there is no further input needed so it is perfect for the less technologically savy generations. The kids/grandkids can upload pictures from their phones to the tablet allowing grandparents to see what is going on in their life. No subscription required.

Einfache Bedienung, tolles Gerät, Großeltern haben eine helle Freude daran!

Je l ai acheté pour qu il s allume et s éteigne à notre passage. J ai programmé une mise en veille après 5 mn mais ne s éteint pas. Avez-vous un conseil ? Merci

My mom, who is not a fan of technology, has been complaining for years that she never sees the digital photos my dad, brother, and I take of our families. This frame should finally solve the problem. This took at most about 10 minutes to go from opening the box to viewing the first photos. The company is known for having the best software, and I see why. This was dead simple. I did not buy the subscription, and it seems like the free features are going to be fine for us. So far, I've shared the playlist with another person, and she added several photos. It was easy to crop a few of the photos as I added them to the playlist. There is ZERO interaction required by the viewer to see the new photos. That's going to be the key to this being a great gift for my mom. The frame itself is nice. It's plastic, but it doesn't look cheap. The screen is very good. They make a higher resolution version, but that's not what I needed for my mom. I was holding the frame about a foot away, and most of the photos were still very sharp. From a more reasonable viewing distance, the resolution should be more than adequate. There are a lot of settings to tweak, but I only changed a few for now. I'm impressed with how much control one has over the display, timing, effects, and other aspects of the presentation. We'll have to see what my mom thinks once she opens it for Christmas, but I'm expecting this to maintain its five-star rating. Even after about 30 minutes, I'm very impressed and completely satisfied with the purchase. UPDATE: As expected, my mom loved it because she doesn't have to do anything. My brother and dad have added photos, which made her happy. Mission accomplished!
