After 18 hours of research and testing, we think the 10-inch Nixplay Seed is the best digital photo frame for most people who want to display pictures uploaded wirelessly from their smartphones, hard drives, or social media and cloud storage accounts. Its superior display and simple setup lift it above the competition, and because you can send photos to the frame via Nixplay's cloud services, email, or a shared Dropbox folder, if you give one as a gift you can share photos directly to your loved ones' frames, even if they're halfway across the world.
