Digital photo frames are the best gifts ever, and Prime Day is the best time to buy one

The best gifts are those that are personal, and there's nothing more personal than a digital photo frame packed full of treasured photographs of the recipient's nearest and dearest. Thankfully, there's no shortage of excellent frames, as you can see in my best digital photo frames buying guide, and there are plenty of bargains to be had on Prime Day. But with such a wide choice, picking the best that suits your needs can be bewildering. It's my job to help you find the best one for you.

Big brands include Aura, Nixplay, and Pexar (which is a sub-brand of leading memory card maker Lexar), and you can typically expect crisp, high resolution displays, cloud storage, the ability for multiple users to upload images, and even the ability to preload frames with images without opening up the packaging, and I've focused on these. But if you're on a budget, there are lots of choices too, but, for my money, the Aeezo Portrait 10.1-inch frame is an absolute bargain in both the US and UK.
