Finally, a digital photo frame with a 2k resolution that can really show off my pictures. I've purchased photo frames in the past from Sony and others and even the WQHD (or whatever it was) resolution quality always seemed sub-par. It never made sense to me - why can we have 4k TVs and monitors but can't get a digital photo frame with a decent resolution? Well, I came across the Nixplay Seed Ultra and decided to pick it up. I'm glad I did, this thing is beautiful! Also, been using the Nixplay app and the website to upload pictures to various photo frames without any issues, which sure beats having to update an SD card that I was doing on my old crummy photo frames. All in all, this thing was easy to setup, easy to update, and looks great. I was aprehensive about the stand at first but it's pretty sturdy. I'm not worried about it. I got one of these for the house and liked it so much I picked up another one when it was on discount. So now I have one dedicated for family photos that I usually upload from my phone, and the other is for my more serious travel photography that I upload with pics from my desktop. Good stuff!

great for families who dont live close to each other

I called Nixplay today to ask some questions about the functionality of their frames and app. Wanted to give a huge *THANKS* to Mark for his phenomenal support and assistance! Mark went above and beyond in answering my questions and took his time to make sure I understand everything properly. Thanks Nixplay - great first impression for this new user. :)

Bought this for a grandparent who is too far away to see our daughter. I have the standard definition version at work and am now envious of the crisp detail the 2k version offers. The images look really impressive and the capability of updating pictures remotely from a phone app makes this really easy to use. If my grandmother could rate this she'd give it 10 stars.

Love this screen! So far great product. Easy to set up?

We bought this for our grandparents to have one common place to share pictures of our children. I manage the app from my phone - my siblings are added as "my friends" so they can share their pictures easily which get uploaded to the frame from the app. I found this very user friendly to set up and all the grandparents LOVE it. It is very user friendly, and they have never had a problem in the six months that they have used it. Great gift idea for grandparents who are a little behind on technology.

There are many, many reviews for this product - some that have been voted helpful over the years and are now outdated due to upgrades in the product. This is for the newer Seed high def version. There are many improvements and fixes for the litany of complaints that some people have had. I bought this for my mother, since Facebook is difficult for so many older people (I'm 60, not old yet) I ordered it one evening and it was at my house the next day! Since we live 20 miles from anything, this was pretty impressive. I realize delivery is via Amazon, but still. Setup is simple - and so many items now do not come with extensive manuals anymore. The book that comes with the frame is is a quick setup guide only and if it weren't for the multiple languages it would be approx 1/2 page. Really...it's possible to set it up without reading the instructions. You should be prepared to be able to plug it in, enter your wifi password, set up an online account using the serial number that will display on the screen during setup, and create an account and a password. I mistakenly put my mother's name on the account so now any photos I add to the frame say "photos added by Donna" It's not a big deal for me, but if you're setting this up for someone else to use, keep that in mind. The name only shows up the first time the photos are viewed. You will also need to add the names and email addresses for anyone you want to allow to add photos. You can bypass this requirement using a setting to automatically approve everyone who sends to the account email as a friend, but I want to be able to restrict who has access to send photos to mom, so I appreciate this step. Here's a few hints that I learned during setup and use. 1) Try not to screw up your initial input of wifi password - I did and spent an additional 5 - 10 minutes messing around with it until I wised up and used an online search. Simply do a factory reset using a paperclip in the small round hole. Put on a pair of glasses before you start looking for it. Here's the fix: press paperclip in hole until you hear a click, hold clip in place, plug it in again (you might need a third arm for this) keep the clip in place until it resets. Only problem with this is that if you follow the instructions to the letter it will download and reset over and over again as long as you have the clip in place. Just remove the clip when you see the firmware download is complete. Hopefully there is a workaround for this if I mess up the input of my mother's wifi when I set it up for her. It would be helpful if I could preset this for her from my location, but at least when I mail this on to her it is already preloaded with pix until I can get some 8 year old grandchild over there to set up her wifi. 2) You'll need to add friends and family to a "friends" list so they can email photos over. They will receive an email stating that they they need to download an app or create an online account. This is not accurate. Once you put their name and email on the list they can start emailing photos to the email address you create for the account for this (and any other future linked - up to 5) frame/s - just email the pix to xxxxx@mynixplay.com - whatever email address you designate. "Friends" do NOT need to download the app or create their own online account. If you have technologically challenged family members, this is good to know. There are basic playlist (file folder) capabilities. Each list will hold 1000 photos. For our purposes, this is more than sufficient. For most parents/grandparents, this is probably just fine and I don't anticipate them ever needed to change playlists. Additionally, there is a setting to cap the size of the photos that are sent to the frame. This is helpful if you know people who don't know how to resize or are unaware that they are sending unnecessarily large files. For people with massive photo collections, they could find this cap restrictive. I'm anticipating that it will take a while for us (5 kids and 20 grandkids) to cap out the 1000 photos but I can see how it might happen and assume that this restriction will change over the next year or so. There is also now updated syncing capabilities using google photos if you want to set up a shared photo account with your friends and family and use that for updating the frame - this is N/A for me. I don't want to deal with setting that up and explaining to my family how to use it. Also, many of the photos in my personal file are not really compatible for sharing with mom. In the meantime, it is set up and running at our house and we're loving it. The motion sensor is terrific, being able to set the hours that it comes on and off if you were using in a sleeping area.. already planning to gift the rest of my family with these this year. It would be great if there were some kind of incentive/discount for multiple purchases because that would make me get out the credit card now instead of buying them over the next year. (Nixplay - are you reading this?) I REALLY WISH the high def screen came in the wood finish and in a larger size... that would be super. Also, I'm just going out on a limb and stating that I LOVE the combo cord/stand. I prefer a sturdy cord, and if there were a separate antenna, stand and cord - well that would take away from the clean line aesthetics. I have no problems getting it to stand, but not sure what to do with the cord length. I think that might be the issue with some people because it is bulky. But it's also sturdy and very adjustable. I think it's cool. It reminds me of the old (old) electrical cords. It's getting a 5 on durability but I haven't dropped it or covered it with spaghetti or anything (yet). ht this, paid full price and I do not work for Nixplay.

This is intended as a gift for our parents, with the children and grandchildren of the couple intending to feed pictures to the frame. The recipients haven't gotten the frame yet, but I have confidence they'll love it too and find it easy to use. Everyone in the family was receptive to the idea. I just received the frame and set it up - added all the family members as friends - and I'm managing the account until I feel we have enough images in it to ship it to Mom and Dad. I chose the 10 inch HD traditional aspect ratio because I have an older Kodak frame of my own and I don't love the way it displays the few vertical photos in the collection (they come out too small) - so I really wasn't hopeful that the widescreen (16x9) format would do a good job on verticals. This frame does a GREAT job making the verticals as crisp and appealing as the horizontal photos.

Not being tech savy I received great tech support from ICE when frame did not recognize USB when I tried playing pictures from my USB flash drive.
