Are you determined to be unpredictable, generous and inspired with your 2023 holiday presents? This year, give the gift of memories. Sending family photos is easier than ever before, and the Aura Walden Digital Picture Frame is the embodiment of that convenience. You don’t even have to be on the same Wi-Fi network to use this! You can send pictures from anywhere in the world, which makes it a fantastic gift for the less tech-savvy family members who still want to stay in the loop. Right now, this wireless wonder is on sale for just $249, down from $299.

An anti-glare coating makes this frame suitable for even sunny rooms. You can hang it on the wall or mount it on a table — the choice is yours.
Why is this a good deal?
Sure, a $240 photo frame is pricey — but the ability to send photos from anywhere in the world is priceless. This is also the lowest price on record for this gadget.
Why do I need this?
When parents live far away (and don’t really understand technology), it can be tough to text a photo or video to them. Even if you do, they’re invariably stuck viewing it on a smaller display. But what if you could send high-quality images to a large screen and they just appeared? That’s what the Aura Walden excels in. And speaking of excelling: This device has been recommended by Oprah!
On to the technical bits. The device has a resolution of 1600 by 1200 PPI (pixels per inch) — a bit higher than your average TV. It’s also color-calibrated and automatically shuts off at night. There’s a built-in speaker for playing back videos, too. You can swap between portrait or landscape modes depending on the photo. It’s also private. Only people you invite will be able to share photos on the device, which is a great way to keep Grandma from seeing something unexpected or distressing.
What reviewers say
“Best gift for a family member, especially in a hospital,” one shopper said. “We had a family member who was admitted to the hospital and then was looking at several weeks of rehabilitation (physical therapy, occupational therapy) to get back on her feet. We bought this frame and the entire family started loading up photos. She absolutely loved it. We even took screenshots of encouraging text messages and sent them to her.”
“I recently purchased the Aura 10.1” frame, actually, I’ve purchased NINE of them. My family is spread out across the country, so staying connected and sharing moments is really easy with this product. We also have businesses with offices in California and South Carolina. The Aura frame has provided a way to make remote staff feel that they are part of the team,” wrote another buyer.
“I love having this. I did a lot of research before buying. Very easy to add photos from my phone. Just download the app. Others can also join a send pictures to the frame. The only downside is that I can’t get pictures to be ‘grouped.’ They show up randomly—- but all in all I love it,” raved one fan.

Share those special moments with family, no matter how far away you might be.
