And indeed, you can see a direct comparison, how bad is the panel of the frame. Even if I look at the Hama directly from the front, the image quality under all. The colors look like washed out skin tones show an unnatural blue color, red is more purple. I tried to save something by settings (brightness, contrast, saturation), but that I may have display results only verschlimmbessert.
That alone would be unsatisfactory enough, but added yet the my opinion immense viewing angle dependence. I leave the sweet spot and look at the Hama from the side or from above, the picture is very dark very quickly. Viewed from below (one sits for example on the sofa and looking at the standing on the dresser frame) is then completely ridiculous. After 10-15 °, you can only guess what is shown on a screen.
In direct comparison with the two desktop monitors can be seen that there is an alternative. Even the LG TN panel has a much more pleasant, not so terribly viewing angle-dependent image as the Hama. Not later than the direct comparison with the P17-2 with PVA panel can be the frame then just still laugh.
I really do not understand the manufacturer of digital photo frames. I recently looked around the corner, some exhibitors in me covetousness market. We install only cheap TN panels in these products. The Hama Picture Frames here joins unfortunately. As can be somewhat satisfied with so customers ?! A standing on the desk or dresser image is viewed in the rarest of cases from the front. It is * essential * to build in a panel that considered from the side gives the impression as if it were a printed image. The technique is the long ago, you just have to use! But I do not mind paying a bit more.
Beautiful, the workmanship is neat, it looks visually appealing, the menu system is in order, the remote control buttons sometimes snag. But what does that have for a role if it can not fulfill its primary task: See Beautiful Pictures. Videos / music I have not even tested. I'm going to send him back.
UPDATE: I've found a box with IPS panel, it is the JOBO Pure 10 Media. The picture is so much better than that of Hama, but the framework is weakening in other fields (see reviews there). But at last there is a manufacturer who built not only musty TN panels.
