They do require a Wi-Fi connection, but if that's no issue, I have several recommendations. You can set them up for others and push your latest vacation photos straight to them, so your folks or grandparents can always stay up-to-date. They're nice to have around the house, and they also make great gifts. If you're thinking of the tacky, pixelated digital frames of the early aughts, don't fear! They've come a long way. There are too many to print and frame, and more keep piling up. Most of us have hundreds, if not thousands, of photos just sitting on our phones and computers that we rarely get to revisit in a polished way.
