Digital Photo Frame Texet TF-128

Themes of universal gifts we touched more than once or twice. One of these beautiful, simplifying the life of objects is a digital photo frame. It is a thing of practical necessity which, as a rule, do not, however, give her a gift, do not feel disappointed. Not big and not small frame will fit almost any decor, and your favorite pictures on your computer is at all.

In the past, digital photo frame was a thing of wonder. To meet it could be on the shelves of amazing things so in the pages of several portals on the web. Today, this thing has become commonplace and familiar. Many varieties of frames filled with shelves of various profiles. Before the manufacturer raises the question: how to evolve, to move further than even interest a user? Making two. First - experimenting with the design. Interesting, but it has long been tried. And the glass to metal and wood, and plastic juicy berry shades - all this has already happened. The second way - expanding functionality, adding new features. Consequence of the movement is such a path has frame Texet TF-128. In addition to the traditional set of features, the manufacturer equipped the frame built in FM-radio. But consider the device in detail.

Exterior design

Frame design is similar to previous models. All the same laconic lines, accentuated by the technicality and black glossy plastic. Device looks steadfastly and simple. Thanks to the unobtrusive frame design easily fits on an office desk, and the living room.

The front panel is monolithic. All controls moved to the producer on the rear panel. This decision is justifiable from the standpoint of ergonomics, since the frame is controlled with a remote control that is included in the package.

Display

The picture shows a clean and bright. Some images seem a little lighter but no color distortions. Detailing is enough to show small details, but if you want a picture can be approximated by using the option «Zoom». Frame correctly handles images with high dynamic range. The only controversial point to which you can "pick on" is the high reflectivity of the entire front panel, including the display field. Reflecting the light, creating glare on the glossy photos. About this feature, we wrote a review of previous models of the manufacturer.

Screen size is 8 inches. Resolution traditional - 800x600 pixels. The display format - 4:3. The frame is easy to cope with automatic image rotation and correctly displays unconventionally cropped images. The frame supports the playback of images format JPEG.

We have already mentioned that the control system is implemented in two ways - by using controls on the rear panel or via remote control. Opportunities in both cases are identical, but a remote control is uniquely more convenient.

The menu is simple and logical. All possible limits brought to the surface. Then select mode or the playback source. Keys, you can use to implement a similar choice, present on the remote. More detailed settings for each of the sub-committed itself to in subparagraph by pressing the «Option».

Modes and operating principles

Texet TF-128 supports the following modes: demo photos, audio and video, clock / calendar and FM-radio.

The demonstration images has a standard set of features. If you include frame and inactive, is activated by the slide show with background music. Music is played from the same recording medium, from which the images are read. After viewing preferences can also set the frame. If the alternate frames tired, playback can pause, then the display will show one picture for an unlimited amount of time. When viewing a picture can be rotated in all four directions, to make 16x approximation, change the format of the output image on the display with 16:9 aspect ratio to 4:3 and in the opposite direction. In the file manager may remove or copy pictures.

Listening is implemented to the maximum concisely. The settings - the order of playback and volume. The sound quality to many may seem mediocre, but, taking into account the specific device to speak of this as a lack of weighty weird.

The menu FM-radio also is varied settings. Frequency can be set up, maintain and subsequently find and change. The settings - to select the frequency range (Russia, Japan), sensitivity adjustment and auto search. During playback, the display shows images from the gallery. The antenna can be attached to any metal surface with a magnetic plate.

The process of video playback caused no complaints. Due to the connectors for headphones 3.5 frame was quite a convenient way to view the video.Supported formats AVI (M-JPEG).

Memory

Like its predecessor, TF-128 can boast a gigabyte of internal memory. Diverse interfaces and connectivity - supports memory card formats, SD / MMC / MS, CF, plus USB-host, giving the possibility to connect a removable Flash-drive.

Conclusions

From a number of similar devices Texet TF-128 highlights the presence of FM-radio. Call this feature of the principle that determines the choice in favor of the device is not necessary. Rather, it's just a nice addition, a bonus, showing that the manufacturer has not stopped, and puzzles over the question "what would have imagined." TF-128 has a balanced design, mass communication connectors and boasts good picture quality. All this is enough to consider the device as a good universal gift.
