 Good frame for the price. December 16, 2007

I was a little concerned about this product considering the reviews, but I went ahead and got it anyway. And I am pleased with my purchase.
The picture quality is definitely not high definition, but it still works. I found that if I use high quality photos they look pretty good in the frame even at full screen. I put in some that aren't so great quality and they still are viewable. However I did use a photo-editing program to resize and adjust the photos that I used. It is called XnView and it is free to download and again simple to use.
I'm not sure what others are saying regarding the set up but I found it extremely easy to use. You put in a memory card hit enter twice and the slid show starts.
Considering the price I paid, $69.99, I think it was a good purchase. Of course it is not going to be as nice or have as many options as $200 or $300 frame, but you should expect that considering the cost.
 Poor picture quality, even worse customer service!! December 10, 2007

I purchased 3 of these frames for Christmas gifts based on the affordable price. The idea was to pre-load the frames with photos to give to our family, since we won't be together for the holidays. When I received the frames, I was really disappointed in the picture quality, but was going to keep them until I had trouble with the interface and horribly vague manual. I am a pretty tech savvy person, and all I wanted to accomplish was have our photos start up when you plug in the thing. Everytime you turn the frame on, you have to select about 5 prompts to get the slideshow started. I called Coby to see if there were other settings, and they emailed me instructions on reinstalling a MP3 player....nothing about the frame. I returned all three and purchased the $99 Westinghouse frame instead, which works like a dream, and has lots of settings to customize viewing the images...
Very Disappointing December 7, 2007

I guess a middle aged person like myself should know you almost always get what you pay for and that is certainly the case with the Coby DP-758 7-Inch Widescreen photo frame. Sure it's attractive enough with a well finished removable frame, but as soon as the power switch goes on it is apparent this is no bargain. Very grainy display, apparent even in the menu. Pixel quality is VERY poor, regardless of the original photo quality. No amount of photo editing resulted in a better quality image. Incidentally, this is a 3x5 aspect ratio frame, and even though the description touts the 16:9 ratio its a little shocking to see it on a frame this small. The stock photo married to the description is NOT what this looks like, not nearly as tall. I'm not normally a buy and return guy but I bought 2 and returned them both, opting instead for 2 Philips 6.5 inch in the clear and black frame. Received them today and the difference is unbelievable.The Philips have a very sharp display and are easy to use. Amazon handled everything A+ as usaual
 Grainy picture quality December 4, 2007

Diappointing picture quality. The online product overview states 'crisp picture', but I found it very grainy or pixelated (& I used high res digital photos from a new camera). It also had trouble reading 2 different SD cards, but I got it to work with the 3rd one. Manual is vague. Please note there are buttons on the top of frame to deal with the onscreen menu, although it looks like it should be touch screen. The frame is nice looking & has a nice finish. It doesn't look like wood, but it has a nice molded shape. Also has a small power brick. I'm returning the two I bought for gifts (drat).
