Aura Carver WiFi Digital Picture Frame | The Best Digital Frame for Gifting | Send Photos from Your Phone | Quick, Easy Setup in Aura App | Free Unlimited Storage | Sea Salt

So, I’m a bit of a hobbyist photographer , and I’d been wanting something to show off the photos I’ve taken throughout the years without having to shuffle through thousands of images. After doing a bit of research I stumbled across this brand and I’m glad I did. I love it. The frame is so elegant and looks nice on our tv stand. It stays plugged in 24/7, and will power itself off when it detects that the lights are all off. A convenient feature if you plan on keeping one in the bedroom. My favorite thing about this device is that Aura provides you with unlimited cloud storage for your photos and videos. That is almost unheard of now a days and since they are stores in the cloud, I’m assuming if the frame ever “goes bad” you could just get another one and sign back into your account and reconnect your photos. It’s fun going through my library of photos and picking and choosing which I want to upload and share. You can set a timer on how long you want the photo displayed . I chose 30 seconds as I plan on uploading hundreds of photos. Videos will also play back on the frame, but are limited to 30 seconds as well. (I think). The display is nice and antireflective. It has nice colors. It doesn’t have the best contrast ratio, and looks washed out from extreme angles, but that’s ok. For the most part it’s a beautiful screen in a beautiful frame. I love this thing so much, I immediately bought a second one to gift to my uncle for his birthday. Oh and you can send a link to your family members to register an account and also upload photos to the same frame! So cool!

This frame has excellent photo quality, is easy to set up, easy to add or change photos, and easy to invite others to upload photos. This was the perfect gift for our 90 year old mother/grandmother/great-grandmother. She loves seeing the photos of the family, enjoys having different photos each time she looks at the frame, and loves that family members are adding photos regularly. It's a great conversation starter too when family talks about the photos or friends see the slide show. Highly recommended!

This was one of the best Christmas gifts I've ever received! My kids gave it to my husband and me. We keep it in the kitchen, and the pictures change regularly. We see it all the time and get to enjoy all the pictures. We need another one so we can see more! The only drawback is that I'd like a bigger size. I think it is available in a bigger size.

We have bought a few Aura frames this year. They make a great gift for anyone. We put all of our wedding pictures on ours and love seeing them cycle through everyday. Unlimited storage is great and so is the picture quality.

This is the third Aura frame I’ve purchased. Everyone we gift them to loves them. Love that the owner can invite whoever they want to add to and view their photos. The only thing I would like to see changed would be a way to turn off the live view on Live Photos easier and more efficiently.

100% would recommend! We got out for our wedding and have loved being able to look at pictures throughout the day. We have given this as a gift to multiple family members as well. They have loved it and enjoyed looking through pictures to find the ones to add to their frame. One of the best things is you can add others to your frame- this has allowed us to add pictures of our baby to her grandmas frame! A great way to stay in touch!

I bought this for my mom for mother's day this year and she LOVED it. She is a photo fanatic and constantly printing out photos and hanging them around her house. This frame has unlimited storage capacity which makes it so easy to photo share onto the frame with anyone she shares the link with! She said it was super simple to set up by herself and she has it on her desk at work :)

This purchase was made with the recommendation from the Wirecutter dot com. The frame must always be plugged in, with a proprietary (but included (and very long)) charge cable. Very vibrant screen and decent screen to frame ratio. The frame itself is very well built. Unfortunately, there is no way to wall mount it. It has to be placed on a shelf or put on a table. Also, the frame is landscape only, no way to turn it sideways. Some portrait pictures sent to it end up with large black bars on the side, whereas some get cropped to fill the frame. In my experience , portrait pictures sent from an android device got cropped and iPhone portrait pictures displayed with black bars (no cropping in). I don't know if this is a rule, as I've only played with it for 30 minutes or so. The setup was fairly simple, but it took a while to load pictures once they were sent. The app would say that the pictures were added to the slideshow and sent to the frame, but they didn't load for a solid 30 minutes. There is a great feature that allows friends or family to add pictures to the frame. This made a great Mothersday gift for a mother who has limited wall space for more pictures. There is an option to add a caption to each picture which is extremely handy for when you send pictures to a family member's frame, so they can get a clue as to what the picture is of or when it was taken. Very pleased with it so far.
