    Very underwhelmed. It does not make sounds of any kind: no alarms, no reminders. Source

    Syncing it with our phones and managing everything from the app is a huge plus. Source
    Beautiful concept. Terrible tech management. I don't have time for this. Source

    My husband calls it the most expensive picture frame of all time. This is a waste of $700. Source
