There’s no way to get software updates and the lack of Wi-Fi connectivity further limits the frame’s longevity. Compared to other frames in this price range, you’d expect something that feels a little more modern. You’ll find yourself having to frequently reset the frame due to freezing & stuttering. While features like USB/SD card support are great for elderly users, the frame’s interface is sluggish and feels ancient. The frame’s cheaper quality and interface when you look at the ease of use & elderly-friendliness. You need to be by the frame in person to load photos, start slideshows, and manage the frame’s storage & settings. If you want a frame that’s suited to families or that can receive photos from anywhere in the world – this isn’t your frame. These frames cannot connect to Wi-Fi and miss out on features like mobile apps & cloud storage. The only way to send pictures to Kodack digital photo frames is by USB/SD card. The result is that they’ll be cropped, distorted, or boxed in by black pillar bars. Almost all of the photos taken on smartphones and cameras aren’t going to match the 16:10 aspect ratio (most of these photos are in 4:3). Unfortunately, the display is 16:10 this brings a lot of issues to the frame’s viewing experience.

You’re mainly paying for a standard cheap digital frame with a slightly better display. Aside from their relatively high-resolution display, these frames are average at best – though their price is a little high for what’s on offer. These frames pack some qualities from the premium end of the market, such as a 1280×800 display but the majority of their features are from the low to mid-end of the market. Kodack digital photo frames are smack bang in the middle of the market – both in terms of price and features. Are Kodack digital photo frames worth the money?
