![]() ![]() That's the basic gist of first-time setup. If the frame isn't detected for whatever reason, you can manually pair it by entering the frame's serial number. When the app finds your Nixplay frame, you can pair it to your Nixplay account. Once you have the Nixplay mobile app and create a free Nixplay account, you can search for Nixplay frames on the same Wi-Fi network (so make sure your phone is also connected to Wi-Fi). Once the frame boots up, you use the remote control to select your preferred language and connect to your Wi-Fi network.Īfter you're connected, it'll tell you to download the Nixplay mobile app (which is available for both Android and iPhone). Plug the power cable into the kickstand, then plug the other end into an outlet. Setting up the Nixplay frame took zero effort. ![]() For a product that's bound to be placed high on shelves or mounted on walls, this shakes my confidence a little bit. Knocking on the plastic produces a hollow sound that makes it seem brittle. I'm just worried whether it would survive a fall. The wavy-diamond design on the back also helps to elevate it back to premium-feel status. I really like the kickstand, which is both flexible and sturdy, and covered in tightly braided nylon for protection-which is great because the kickstand is also where the power plugs in! It certainly looks nice at first glance, and it has a good amount of heft to it at 1.3 pounds, but the frame's plastic material reminds me of what you'd find in a cheap laptop tray or computer keyboard.Įverything else about it is put together well. The Nixplay frame itself and the included components feel inferior to what the packaging would suggest. And while there aren't many pieces or components, the box makes good use of its space in an aesthetically pleasing way. Can't say I'm a big fan of Nixplay's diamond grid pattern (is it just me or does it look like snakeskin?), but the box is pretty nice.ĭefinitely feels like a mid-tier premium product. Nixplay sent me their 10.1-inch 1280x800 frame, which came in a sleek black box with a sleek blue-patterned sleeve. My review unit was provided for free, but my opinions are my own and haven't been influenced in any way. Here are my thoughts on Nixplay's smart digital photo frame, what it can do, and whether it's worth getting. And you know what? It's actually pretty cool, especially if you're the "techie" in your social circles. And yet, Nixplay generously sent me one of their smart digital photo frames to try for myself. So to say that digital photo frames "aren't really my thing" would be a massive understatement. My home is absolutely void of personal photos, and while my Google Photos account has some stuff in it, it's a disorganized mess. I'm the kind of guy who only takes selfies under duress, and I never remember to snap shots of lovely moments when I'm out traveling or celebrating with friends. ![]()
