The worse part was the frames
349378
Listen to the discription and do not buy from anyone else. I did, while painting was a close match, there really wasn't any white, more so pink. The worse part was the frames. The wooden frames were all terrible constructed and did not go together. They were slanted on all sides.

Not happy with the frame, one of the sides came apart. When I needed my glasses the most after eye surgery :(

The frame appeared okay until we tried to put glass in it. After breaking two windshield panes trying to mount them, we called in a professional glass company who also was not able to mount the glass because of the poor construction of this frame. Turns out the quality control was so poor that the inner and outer halves of the frame were not aligned before it was spot welded together, causing the finished opening to be too small in two of the corners and the center bottom. We're now having to trash the frame after an intricate  camo paint job that matched the Jeep body. Not sure how we're going to duplicate the camo on a new frame. Thanks Evan-Fischer for nothing.

I bought these to go to the shooting range and I was highly disappointed in the quality of the frames. first off this pinches the side of my head/ears when I put on the shooting range ear protection head piece. Once that is on, it shifts the glasses out of place and it doesn't sit comfortably on my nose anymore. I tried so many times to adjust it but then it just doesn't stay put. maybe its the shape of my head, but I really thought that these would at least attempt to contour around all that. I won't be buying these again, maybe I would use them instead as road biking glasses. really hate to waste it.

I actually purchased this for the frame itself. I needed a few of these as gifts for High School coaches for a banquet. Although they did do the job, the quality of these frames were really cheapI probably would have done better by purchasing at a local chain store that always offers frames on sales along with a 15%, 20% or 30% discount sent via the mail. The back of these frames was insanely cheap! As for the picture of the boy, I had no use for itbut it looks like a computer print out on good quality photographic paper. The glass is fine for this frame and it does come in its own box. The facade of the frame wasn't badit's just the backing and the easel and the hooks that are so disappointing

This is the worse frame I have ever seen. I bought this in January.. it is coming apart from the top. The picture I have in it isn't heavy, so I don't understand what the issue is. Never Again!!!!

The frame is annoying, even painful. The arms pinch the back of my head. Product returned. Spend a little more money and get something better.

Being the first time i purchased a set of binoculars I was not sure what to expect.  My only experience with binoculars is of the military kind and these are not durable at all.  The optics are offset and i had to twist the flimsy plastic viewing lenses to get a clear picture.  the plastic frame is the culprit to the terrible vision these bino provide.  Some of the plastic glue was already coming of even before the binos first use.  I ended up giving them to my daughter as a toy because for anything more that just looks these binos are terrible

The picture quality is very poor. On a not-so-close inspection, you can see the large pixels that make up the image.

Standard size photos must be cropped to a wider-than-normal (panorama-like) size in order to fill the frame, which is really annoying, since 99% of my pictures aren't that size already. What this means is that you're only using about 5" of your 7" frame because there's about an inch on either side of your picture that won't be used.

Slideshow options are okay, although I would have liked to see an option for that slow-moving/panning/zooming photo effect that a lot of slideshow software on PC is doing now. That would be a good way to use the full screen on this frame; alas, it does not have it, or not that I can find anyway.

Strangely, amazon isn't showing pictures of the actual connections on this device. I was curious about them. They're all on the side, which means if you want to plug in a USB thumb drive, it's going to visibly stick off the side and will ruin the look of your frame.

The buttons on the top of the frame aren't very user-friendly. The buttons: Menu, Enter/Slide, up arrow, down arrow, left arrow, right arrow, and a little wheel for controlling brightness. You have to hold the Enter/Slide button down for a few seconds to put the frame in Slideshow mode. When an mp3 is playing one set of the arrow keys (i forget which ones now) control volume -- not the slider that looks like it has a volume control symbol on it.

The frame doesn't support batteries, so before you think you're going to hang it on the wall, remember that there will be a black power cord hanging down from the frame. Not very good considering I have a 2 year old daughter, so now it has to sit on the kitchen counter.

The look of the frame in the pictures on this site are a little bit misleading. I stupidly assumed the whole frame was that sort of translucent color. It's not. Only the outer edges are like that, the part around the screen is solid white. You can switch it out for solid black as well, if you prefer.

I've only mentioned bad things about the frame so far, but it's not all bad. It's actually OK, which is why I gave it 3 stars. For most people that can't see well (like my mother and grandmother) they'll never notice that you can see the individual pixels, so it'll be a great gift for them. Also, a lot of people complained about the music quality -- well, don't buy a picture frame if you want an MP3 player, but still - i was rather surprised that it sounded as good as it did, and again, for people like my mother and grandmother, the sound quality won't matter. I'm sure my grandma doesn't even know what an MP3 is anyway, so the fact that *any* music comes out of it will delight her.

Bought this as a birthday present for someone not to tech savvy. I'm glad I decided to pre-load the frame with photos and the manual that comes with it is not very descriptive. The basic concepts (an "album" versus a "slideshow") aren't defined. You really have to wing it to figure out how to get the memory card loaded.

The software that comes with it is terrible. It would transfer 20-30 photos then lock up. I had to press the reset button on the frame, disconnect the usb and restart it. I tried this on several different computers with the same result. For the price of the frame, there's no excuse for such poor software.

Having said that, once I wasted many hours attempting to load it, the final result was nice.

I wouldn't recommend this to someone who's not very technical.

After reading the absolutely wonderful reviews across most of Gunnar's products, I decided to give these a shot.  I chose these specific glasses because unlike the rest of the Gunnar lineup, the lenses on these didn't have the yellow tint which would have made it a deal breaker as I need color accuracy in my work.

First, the overall finish on these is honestly subpar at best.  The frame feels like something that you would expect to find on glasses costing a quarter of what these cost.

Second, the lenses are absolutely horrendous fingerprint magnets! I can't even begin to describe just how bad it got.  But just to put into perspective.  I wash my hands, I wash my face, no oil anywhere, everything is clean.  I put the glasses on, and within 15 minutes I have to take them off to get rid of a smear from either my eyelashes touching them, or an eyebrow hair falling past them.  I honestly spent more time cleaning these than wearing them.

But maybe even all that I could tolerate... What ended up being the absolute deal breaker for me and what caused me to return these was that I use 2 displays.  A 27" iMac, with an older 20" display next to it.

When I tried using these while using a small laptop screen, I did notice they do somewhat help.  When I tried them while sitting in front of my usual setup, the 27" iMac screen was scaled up so much that I felt like I was sitting too close to the screen in a theater.  The second screen, which stands next to the 27" one, not only kept on making the exposed edges of the lenses give off a weird glare into my eyes.

On top of that, what you need to understand is that these are good only for staring into one point without moving at all.  If you're used to using multiple screens you know it's easier to just move your eyeballs instead of your whole head.  While wearing these if I just looked at the second screen without moving my entire head I was always ending up looking past over the bridge of my nose in the tiny gap left by the frame - and since one eye is looking though a lens and the other isn't, that alone gave me a horrible headache.

And to top it all off, my work requires plenty of jumping between the screen and paper - ie look at the screen, look at a notebook on the table.  Again going back to just moving my eyes, I kept on glancing under the glasses which resulted in my eyes having to refocus much more than they would have otherwise, again giving me a headache.

So to summarize, if your work includes sitting for 8 hours inputting numbers into a spreadsheet without looking away from your screen, and as long as the screen is no more than 20" away, and if it's your only screen, then these may help you.  If you work with big and multiple screens and do something other than just staring at your screen without even glancing to the side for a second, then I really really would not be able to recommend these.  Shame, was honestly expecting more of these...

This is my 3rd brand of 3d glasses.
They work. Sure. They turn on and stuff. But the skinny frames block the screen!
I have a 137 inch home theater screen. If you wear these glasses correct, right up against your face, we have to tilt our head down, and look up.
To see the whole screen and sit normal, we have to move the frames to the middle of our nose. That causes a weird eye strain and now the thick middle sensor in the middle of the frames is making you go cross eyed! These are the worst. 2 stars because they do work and might be good with a TV sitting at the right angle and distance.

One frame broke within week 1 and the second frame broke at day 40, just outside the refund time frame of 30 days. Awful quality

Love the frame, but the plexiglass is really bad quality. While installing a photo, I cleaned the plexiglass with a soft towel and windex which produced minor surface scratches that is easy to see against the black matting. I don't mind using plexiglass with my photos, but the stuff provided is very bad quality and worthless.

I bought this frame as a gift. Within an hour of plugging it in the frame had developed a mind of its own. It began switching pictures at whatever pace it felt like regardless of the "transition" settings. After shutting it down and restarting it- it would run maximum of 45 minutes before freezing on an arbitrary picture. I have to say Phillips costumer service was more than willing to send replacement frames. I went through 3 frames all exibiting the same bugs before a refund was submitted. I also tested internal memory and multiple sd cards to check if the memory was the problem, but it was the frame in the end. Outside of the flaws electornically. On a lesser note, the interface on the phillips frames are inefficient as well.

This had been intended as a gift for my wife and we were both disappointed.  Image playback was way too dark and the frame lacks an option to adjust brightness.  Resolution was on par with other frames but the images appear grainy.  Also important to note is that while a 16x9 display seems like the way to go its pointless when 99% of all photos taken are 4x3.  You're either stuck zooming in on your 4x3 photos to fill the screen (thus losing image area) or playing back the image in it's original aspect ratio with bars to the left and right of the image.

We eventually went with the&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Matsunichi-Photoblitz-8-Digital-Picture-Frame/dp/B000JRPCDO/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Matsunichi Photoblitz 8" Digital Picture Frame</a>&nbsp;which turned out to be a great 4x3 frame with a sharp, clear display.

Left frame wood was scratched and chipped and the corner of the glass was chipped off. The hinges were very loose and it seemed as though the frame would come apart any minute. This was not a true 4x6 frame as the same exact 4x6 pictures that fit in the other frames I had bought fit perfectly, but this frame was too small. The pictures would've had to have been trimmed down. I have made arrangements to return this frame and I will not be ordering this again.
