Amazon’s new Alexa Photo Frame could have what I’ve been missing – here’s why

You can ask Amazon's voice assistant to show you your favorite photos.

I’ve been looking for a new photo frame to set up in my dining room or kitchen and display some of the photos my wife and I have snapped over the years. So far, the frames I’ve seen and tested haven’t quite done the trick for me. Amazon’s newly launched frame could be the one.

Released today as part of the company’s latest product blitz, the Alexa Photo Frame sports a high-definition 10-inch screen. Amazon said that its semi-matte, anti-glare finish means your images will look more like actual prints, and that you’ll be able to view them from any angle. Plus, the frame’s brightness automatically changes based on the surrounding lighting conditions. I’d definitely like to see all that in action.

The photo frame comes in three varieties and two price tags. The one with a simple black frame runs $200, while a walnut or birch frame costs $230. For me, the wooden frame would be worth the extra $30 for the added style and pizzazz.

Apparently, you don’t have to fiddle with SD cards or local storage, as the frame picks up your photos directly from Amazon Photos. The only drawback is that I don’t actively use Amazon Photos. But I have the app on my iPhone, so it would be easy enough to turn on automatic photo syncing with Amazon’s cloud service.
