Product DescriptionThe latest in the X range from NIX, the X08D features a newer and better quality screen over its predecessor the X08C. Why bother turning your frame on and off all the time? Featuring an inbuilt motion sensor, the frame will turn itself on when it senses any motion and off again when it senses no motion. This frame is perfect for parents and grandparents who just want a frame that works without the hassle of having to actually operate it. As well as it's ease of use; the frame features a high resolution SVGA screen with LED back lighting. Importantly the frame will also play your MPEG-4 / .AVI video, JPEG photos and MP3 music. The motion sensor is very easily set up and can be set to switch off after sensing no movement in time increments from 30 seconds to 1 hour. When the frame activates after sensing movement it can play either your photos (from where it left off in the slideshow), videos or music. The choice is yours. Additional features include an auto rotate sensor that flips your photos 90 degrees when you physically rotate the frame. This optimizes the use of the screen for your portrait (vertical) photos. Ideal for showing off that holiday you just got back from! Remember that connecting the frame to external speakers via the audio jack allows for an even richer sound experience. Enjoy Peace of mind with a full manufacturers 1 year warranty.

Latest Version - NIX X08D 8 inch Hi-Res Digital Photo Frame with Motion Sensor

Customer Reviews:* First let me say I am a tech nut and have a good eye for flaws in technology products. Upon booting this up with an SD card inserted, it immediately starts playing my pictures. So even if you're an idiot, using this should not be difficult, at all.The screen is VERY high quality for a photo frame. Colors are vivid and the viewing angle is VERY good. You will notice almost no degradation in the image at any left or right angle, or from the top. The only time the image degrades is if you look at it from below - almost every photo frame I've seen does this though. Make sure the frame sits at or below whatever level people will be at when they look at it and you're fine.Another note, when I received the frame, photos were sharp but dull. I turned the Saturation setting all the way up and now photos have perfect color (not oversaturated, the way they should look). So be aware of this if colors look a bit dull upon first use. I didn't need to change any other settings.Of note too is that this frame does a phenomenal job of shrinking down large photos to fit the frame. It uses 'bicubic sharper' reduction so the images retain incredible sharpness when reduced in size by the frame to fit the screen.The motion sensor works perfectly. No false alarms and no having it turn off when I'm sitting right in front of it.Having used Sony and a host of others in the past, they aren't even close. I highly recommend this frame.* This is a really nice digital frame. It is easy to use which is a plus as I'm sending it to my parents.I have a few niggles with it.- I would like when you set the music to play in the background of the slideshow that it remains everytime the frame is switched on. As I'm sending it to my parents, I would have liked to have had the music come on automatically when they plugged it in.- the Mpeg 4 format is very fiddly as there are a few and we had to reformat even some of our MP4 formats to MP4 formats to get them to work.- I was also hoping that the slideshow would also play videos randomly in addition to the photos, but they are seperate options.All in all a nice product for the price and I would recommend it if you weren't concerned with my niggles!
