Being completed devoted to my grandchildren; it is no surprise that I often get bought framed photographs of them. On the same theme, but slightly more modern I was bought this little digital key right. When the grand children were born I was given a keyring with the first ever photographs displayed within. It wasn't digital or fancy but I loved having their image with me at all times. Moving into the digital world, we now get these digital keyring that feature an LCD screen do you can have a whole album displayed at your fingertips. I had never heard of these until I received this as a gift and I was over the moon with the invention.

COST

I am amazed to find that these wonderful gifts are only £6.99. This is such good value for money.

DESCRIPTION

I have blue Cirrus key ring that measures 10 cm x 10 cm x 4.5 cm with A 1.5 inch screen. The quality of the screen is measured as 18 x 128 pixels and it has a memory of 8 MB. The whole this is heavier than I’d like a keychain to be, but it is still quite light for a digital device. The frame comes with a clip on loop that will attach to your keys and it also comes with a long material chain so you can wear it round you neck. I have mine with my door keys and keep it in my handbag.

The frame uses power via USB to charge and the battery which is built lasts around an hour. To reach full charge it will take a couple of hours. It is through the USB cable that you can upload images on to the machine. It will hold around 80-85 pictures of the following format BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF. When you want to watch the pictures, turn it on and you can set it to slideshow with various delay times, so you can have them moving slowly or quickly or you can scroll though the pictures.

GROWING UP TOO QUICK

I love the grandchildren and they grow up so quickly that it is great that I can see their baby picture whenever I want.

When I see friends that I have not seen in a while I get to show them my keyring and show my family off proudly. This is an absolutely wonderful present that can be turned into such a personal and meaningful gift. Digital photograph frames have revolutionised how we view our photographs and this is the icing on the cake.
In terms of picture clarity, the frame is good for such a small thing and I think the quality is really good, obviously it is not a patch on the LCD monitor belonging to the computer but for a small device they have done well and I can make out all my pictures on the machine. I will certainly recommend the machine and I think it will make a perfect gift for anyone who likes gadgets or likes receiving photographs as gifts.

I was given my frame all set up with all my pictures all ready loaded on but I will want to update some of the photographs soon and add some more recent ones. This is a simple task anyone who is au fait with a computer will be able to do it.

OVERALL

This is a wonderful present that I will cherish. It is reliable, good quality and features a good little screen. It is easy to use and hassle free.
