Thanks to Nixplay for sending me this great frame. As always, all opinions are my own.
I can’t be the only one to think that guys are SO hard to shop for! Buying gifts for Father’s Day is always a huge task; I buy for my husband, my dad, my grandpa, and my husband’s stepdad. My grandpa is one of the most sentimental people I know, and because of COVID-19 we haven’t seen him in a couple months. I turned to Nixplay to find a gift for him this year, and I know he’s going to love it!
Now, my grandpa is NOT a tech-savvy guy. In fact, I’m not sure he’s ever typed on a keyboard or connected a product to wi-fi in his entire life! So you may be curious why I’m giving him a Smart Digital Photo Frame for Father’s Day, but I can explain! The great thing about digital photo frames is that you can update them from afar, and the people who display the frame can just reap the benefits of the photos you send to them. My grandpa loves photos and videos, and he also loves his great-grandkids! He’s always delighted when we give him printed photos, but I know he doesn’t like clutter so he doesn’t display many for long. With a digital photo frame, he can see constantly updated pictures of our family without the added clutter.
I chose the 13.3 inch Nixplay Smart Photo Frame for my grandpa because he’s getting older and likes things to be a little larger visually. Nixplay also offers smart frames in 9.7, 10.1, and 15.6 inches, and you can choose a black or metal frame. There are some options with your frame also; you can wall-mount it or use the attached stand for a freestanding frame, either landscape or portrait.
I downloaded the Nixplay app so I can add photos to the frame anytime I want to. I can also connect it to my social media so whenever I upload a photo to Facebook or Instagram, it instantly loads to my grandpa’s frame as well. The photo quality on the frame is fantastic; the photo above doesn’t do it justice. The colors are bright and vibrant, and you can choose how long each photo stays on the frame. When the frame is “sleeping”, it shows the time and date in large font.
My grandpa, like many elderly people, is vehemently against touch screens. Many digital products have touch screens but thankfully Nixplay’s Smart Frame comes with a handy little remote that can be attached with a magnet to the back for safe keeping. The remote is very user-friendly, even for people who are not great with technology!
I can’t wait for my grandpa to open his frame on Father’s Day. I’m sure there will be tears as he sees photos of all his grandkids and even his great-grandkids!

Hi there! I’m Amber, a 34 year old wife and mom of two from central Minnesota. I love to be outside with my family anywhere the weather is warm (which means I spend half the year freezing). We’re a homeschooling family that loves to travel as often as possible! When I have a spare free moment, I love to read, take photos, and scrapbook. I’m interested in anything that makes life more fun; I also love socializing and sharing about my favorite products!

This looks like it would be easy to set up and use. For older folks this would be great for memory. It would also be a fantastic way to keep up with grandkids who grow so fast!

I like the idea that you can put photos from afar on to the smart photo frames. That makes everything a lot easier for the old folks that includes me.

I’ve been really wanting a smart frame. They’re so much easier to use than the old digital frames, because they’re wireless. I’m going to have to put this on my birthday wish list.
