Relive memories with this Aluratek digital photo frame. It is simple to set up and comes with a remote control for easy operation. Its true-color LCD screen displays images at high resolution, bringing your photos to life. This 14-inch Aluratek digital photo frame also plays video and music, letting you remember cherished moments.

Comparing this unit to an 8" Pandigital Pantouch.
The viewing angle is very limited, you essentially have straight on only.
The UI is not intuitive and the online manual I found is not for this model but for the general release version-this model is BB exclusive (I didn't open the manual in the box). There are buttons on one side which are difficult to use, much less see to identify, so I stuck with the remote. That worked better so long as you have a light to read them. Dark lettering on dark background is not ideal.
I plugged in a usb which had the photos I had reloaded on the Pandigital recently and could not find how to get the unit to show more than 50 of the nearly 500 photos on the usb.
Of the 50 photos it acknowledged, it played less. I kept getting a "decode error" msg on others and could find no information on their website to explain this (or really much of anything). The photos were taken by Canon cameras and Windows phones, which display beautifully on the Pandigital.
I am sorry to have to return it, I was really looking forward to a much larger photo display. The display size was wonderful, for the few photos it deigned to play. I didn't try any of the other features as I quickly saw that it is not a keeper
