IPEVO Kaleido R7 Wireless Digital Frame

Includes Wi-Fi Very solid, pretty device

Must use PC connection to delete photos on device No image shuffling in slideshows

I liked the Kaleido's intuitive menu operation and power on/off interval settings, and I also found the Wi-Fi connection simple to set up. However, it's hard not to wish that this device had audio and video support, given its steep price--but hopefully...

Easy configuration. Rotatable display. Sharp, bright images. Good viewing angle in landscape mode.

Expensive. No storage for the remote. Wall wart instead of inline power adapter. Portrait mode viewing-angle problems.

In addition to rotating, the versatile screen can tilt up to 30 degrees. Colors from the bright 7-inch, antiglare LCD look vibrant. In landscape mode, the viewing angle is excellent. At up to 45 degrees off the centerline, text remains clearly visible...

Online capabilities are crippled due to PC requirement ; Not a fan of the two-tone finish ; Could be larger and offer a higher resolution ; Somewhat expensive compared to other digital picture frames

On the inside, everything is suitably protected from damage. The frame is wrapped in a soft cloth-like paper sleeve and then there are removable screen protectors in place to minimize fingerprints and scuffs. Aside from the Kaleido R7 itself, you get...

Excellent build quality ; Great screen ; Excellent user interface on the frame and included software (PC and MAC)

No music or movie playing capabilities (might be missed by some people) ; Requires constant connection to computer for Internet-based content

The IPEVO Kaleido is a no-frills photo frame that looks great and works exactly how you would want a dedicated photo frame to work. The interface is simple to use and almost all controls can be handled through the remote, touch-sensitive device...
