This helps maximise space and this way Philips claim an internal storage capacity of between 110 and 150 photos. When transferring photos onto the internal memory from a memory card, the 9FF2M4 automatically resizes any photo to 720 x 540 – or the nearest it can get to this without upsetting the aspect ratio. In either instance the Philips Photo Frame has a number of helpful features, providing basic editing functions to get your photos looking just right on the display.

Alternatively you can connect the photo frame directly to your PC using the mini-USB to USB cable provided. From there you can choose to display these pictures from the card itself, or you can transfer them onto the internal memory. This means you should be able to take a memory card from any digital camera and put it straight into the Photo Frame. Strangely it was also possible to use Memory Stick Duo cards using an adapter, despite the manual stating otherwise. Internally it features a rather disappointing 18MB of memory however this can be supplemented by any number of memory cards with support for SD, xD, MMC, CompactFlash, Memory Stick and Memory Stick Pro. Philips also includes a set of three red, black and silver magnetic frames, though in general the original white frame is the most appealing of all.

Set in the clear Plexiglass with a white plastic frame, the 9FF2M4 is an elegant piece of design that’ll look the part in any environment. We have the nine inch modern version to review today, and aesthetically you can immediately appreciate the quality of the product. Philips has been one of the pioneers in this market, and its photo frame range comes in seven and nine inch varieties with a choice of modern or wooden finishes.
