'Digital photo frames are perfect for Father's Day - they're so good I got four'
Currently half price at Amazon, this is a gift that combines sentimentality and technology Father's Day is an opportunity to show the men in our lives how much they mean to us. And while whiskey, aftershave and grooming sets are all worthy gifts, they can sometimes feel a bit repetitive. Dor those looking for a gift a little outside of the usual suspects this June, I've got the perfect present idea. The Frameo 10.1 inch digital photo frame from Amazon, is the ultimate combination of thoughtful and practical. And the best part is that they're currently half price, making them cheaper than they were on Black Friday. And if you've left it last minute and happen to be a Prime member, next day delivery is free, too. Usually £99.98, the frames are currently reduced to £49.98, saving 50% on the RRP for the plain black frame. Those wanting something slightly more premium looking could opt for one of the wood effect frames for £69.98, but the sleek black version will fit in with most decor choices with ease. The frame is really easy to set up. After plugging it in, it walks you through the set up, which includes downloading the compatible free Frameo app, which is what the owner, and their family and friends can use to upload images to the frame. There are other similar apps available, for example Kodak has their own digital photo frame available at Argos for £79.99. Their version uses its own app, and has earned 14 reviews from shoppers, one of which wrote: 'Bought this as a christmas present for my parents and they love it, it's so nice to be able to share photos with them while I'm away from home.' Digital Photo Frame £99.98 £49.98 Amazon Buy here Product Description For a more premium option, the AURA Carver Mat 10.1 Inch Digital Photo Frame is £179 and uses Photo Match to share images. Personally, I've only ever used the Frameo app and find it really easy to navigate. So easy in fact, that when I gifted both sets of grandparents the frame, they were able to set it up themselves with no assistance. Once set up, the Frameo app allows unlimited user connections via a pin code, so each family member can send photos and videos to the frame from anywhere in the world. The frame has a large 32GB storage, which allows for approximately 60,000 photos. For context, I'm a content creator and serial photo taker and haven't quite hit that number on my camera roll in five years. It's ample for the average person. The quality of the photos is great, too, with a 1280x800 HD IPS screen with vibrant colours. It's also touchscreen, so you can browse through photos, delete pictures or videos, and pause the slideshow in seconds. Again, even the most tech-wary users can manage it. A few other standout features are that it can be freestanding or wall mounted, and auto rotates between portrait and landscape. Users can also choose how long each image stays on the screen, and can set it to turn on and off at certain times of the day. My nan recently told me hers comes on at around 5pm, and switches off when she heads to bed at 10pm. My grandparents loved their frames so much, I decided to get my mum one for Mother's Day this year and it was gratefully received. She loves how my brother, sister and I can send her photos of her kids, grandchildren, dogs, family days out, holidays and more. And for the security conscious, the Frameo app doesn't store or access your media either, ensuring it remains private - ideal for my sister-in-law who has her frame on her bedside displaying photos of her little boy. The Amazon frame has a 4.5 star rating based on more than 400 reviews, too. One said: 'This is the fourth Frameo picture frame I have purchased. They have all been excellent and I love the large screen on this model. The picture quality is outstanding. Everyone who sees it is captivated. I believe these offer good value for money. It is easy to use, has some useful features, and I appreciate the SD card slot which makes it easy to transfer images from my PC. I've never had a problem with the touch screen. The only downsides are: it takes a while to boot up; I would appreciate more options for display order, including the ability to remember where it left off when it goes to sleep (if you set a sleep interval); and the ability to display the file name or other selected metadata from the image.' Another said: 'This is my third Frameo digital frame. I bought the first one for myself and I was amazed by the quality of pictures and the product itself. The second one was a gift for my Dad and the third one a gift for my son's grandmother. Frame always comes in a very nice box, it looks already like a gift. The screen and photos look clear and bright. The Frameo app is quick and easy to use. I like the fact i can add photos and videos as well. Sleeping mode is a great advantage so you don't have to always turn it on and off. My family is more than happy that i can share with them live pictures in the app. We all admire modern design, I can also add that the wood style looks even more fancy than I expected. Overall I think its a great product and value for money.' While the Frameo app is free, there are some paid extras, which saw one shopper leave a three star review. They wrote: 'Brought this as a Xmas present, good clear picture, lots of settings, loses some stars as you can only transfer a few photos wirelessly at a time unless you pay for the premium software. Lots of storage built in! Finally the mains adapter could have been longer as if you're wall mounting it then it has to be fairly close to a mains plug.' For fathers in particular, this is a gift that combines family sentimentality and technology. I know my dad loves gadgets, and has often mentioned what a great gift mum's frame was, so for that reason, I think this is one of the best, most considerate and unexpectedly fabulous gifts you can get the father figure in your life this June.

The Best Tech Gifts for Mother's Day 2025
Kudos to you if you've already bought a gift for the mom in your life and just need to wrap it ahead of Mother's Day this Sunday, May 11. But if you're still looking for gift ideas and don't want to wait until the very last minute and be forced to grab something from the gas station, we've got you covered with gifts that'll fit any budget under $100, under $300, and over $300 (for you really generous folks). Gifts Under $100 Roku Streaming Stick 2025 ($30) The latest Roku streaming sticks, whether you opt for the lower-cost HD or one that supports 4K TVs, are great small gifts to turn any television into a smart TV. It also lets mom project Roku content onto other screens in the house over Wi-Fi. Buy at Amazon Frameo Digital Picture Frame ($50) No mom has time to scroll through hundreds or thousands of photos scattered in Apple Photos or Google Photos. A Frameo digital picture frame is easy to set up, and once loaded with photos sent from your phone over Wi-Fi, the 10-inch screen will uplift the mood in any room. Buy at Amazon Lego Botanical Collection Flower Bouquet ($48) Real flowers will wilt and die within a few days. But a bouquet of Lego flowers? They'll get dusty like all completed Lego sets inevitably do, but they'll last forever. For an added touch: get her favorite scent and give the plastic bouquet a light spritz. Buy at Amazon Harmonies ($35) Harmonies, with its evocative art style, is the kind of game that builds relationships rather than tearing them down. It's simple to teach, but it maintains a surprising depth as each player tries to build a habitat for a number of cutesy animals. You'll never end up in a situation where players rage against each other, as you'll be working on your own board to make the most out of your habitats. Buy at Amazon Split Fiction ($47) While It Takes Two, Hazelight Studios' other co-op adventure game, is still a great gift for couples, Split Fiction offers a similarly zany and imaginative adventure for two players. It's the kind of game where sitting side by side with your mom might bring you a little closer. Buy at Amazon Super Mario Jamboree ($52) Mario Party games are the perfect after-dinner romp (yes, you should be cooking dinner for a mom on this special day). Super Mario Party Jamboree has just the right amount of backstabbing to make sure the mother in your life will still want to talk to you the next morning. Buy at Amazon Logitech Lift It takes a few days to adjust to using a vertical mouse like the Logitech Lift—you grip it like you're shaking someone's hand—but once you do, your wrist will be in heaven. If mom is spending all day at the computer, this could help alleviate some wrist pain. Buy at Amazon Ridge Magnetic Power Bank ($70) Magnetic iPhone battery cases are a dime a dozen. The 10,000mAh Ridge Magnetic Power Bank stands out with two built-in cables (USB-C and Lightning), an Apple Watch charger, and a kickstand. It's truly a versatile all-in-one battery pack. Buy at Ridge Anbernic RG35XXSP ($80) If the mother you're celebrating grew up with a Game Boy in her pocket, this gift will pack plenty of nostalgia. Modern retro handhelds like the Anbernic RG35XXSP offer the right amount of portability and excellent controls. Just be sure to fill it with her favorite old games first. Buy at Amazon Satechi OntheGo 3-in-1 Charger ($90) For moms who travel often, Satechi's OntheGo 3-in-1 Charger can charge up an iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods all at once. When not needed, the whole thing folds up for easy storage. Buy at Amazon Gifts Under $300 AirPods 4 ($100) If mom is still using wired earbuds or headphones, it's time to go wireless. Apple's AirPods 4 come in two models: with and without active noise cancellation. There's no going wrong with either, unless mom prefers wireless earbuds with in-ear tips; in which case, consider the AirPods Pro 2. Buy at Amazon Slay the Spire ($102) Moms who game may already be very familiar with the Slay the Spire video game. But whereas that single-player title isn't a great option to spend quality time together, Slay the Spire in board game form is perfect for a lengthy co-op session with players trying to build decks to defeat a number of wacky and weird beasties. Buy at Amazon Fujifilm Instax Mini 41 ($120) Sure, mom can snap photos with a smartphone, but can she hang them on the fridge or stash them in a wallet to show friends and family? Fujifilm's Instax Mini 41 prints business card-sized photos, and mom will look rad with the vintage-looking camera slung around her chest. Buy at Amazon Keychron K4 HE ($145) Besides helping to stave off carpal tunnel syndrome, a mechanical keyboard is just a damn more enjoyable typing experience. With rosewood accents and quiet switches, Keychron's wireless K4 HE is a computer upgrade plenty of moms will appreciate. Buy at Amazon JBL Flip 7 ($150) Whatever mom's music tastes are, the JBL Flip 7 will deliver. This compact Bluetooth speaker cranks out big sound, can survive a tumble, and has long-lasting battery life. It's great for parties indoors and outside. Buy at Amazon Nintendo Switch Lite ($200) If you weren't able to snag a Switch 2 for mom (and it'll arrive late, starting on June 5), the Switch Lite is still a great device to play the handheld's massive library of games. Everything from Super Mario Wonder to Animal Crossing: New Horizon to The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will run great. The Lite also comes in more fun colors and fits better in purses or smaller bags. Buy at Amazon Kindle Colorsoft ($225) It only took 17 years for Amazon to release a Kindle e-reader with a color E Ink display, but the Colorsoft is here, and it's glorious, especially if mom is into reading comics. Black and white is fine, but color ebooks just have an extra pop. Buy at Amazon Gifts $300+ Ninja Swirl by CREAMi ($348) The Ninja Swirl by CREAMi is the perfect way to make sure there's always a special treat handy. The device can make several different kinds of soft serve or frozen yogurt with any ingredients you have on hand. Plus, its main controls look like a face that's just as surprised as you will be when mom tries to make peanut butter mint-flavored ice cream. Buy at Amazon Dyson Airwrap i.d. Multi Styler ($600) Dyson's Airwrap is one of the most popular products of its kind, for a good reason. It's a multi-tool for curling hair, but unlike other similar products that use heat to do the job, the Airwrap uses powerful airflow to help create a variety of styles. It also comes with a fanless hairdryer attachment. Buy at Amazon

Mother's Day gold: One of the best digital photo frames we've tested is $50 — that's 45% off
My mom lives over a thousand miles away and asks for more photos of her granddaughter at least once a week. Texting them one by one works — until I forget. That's why the YunQiDeer Frameo 10.1-inch WiFi Digital Picture Frame has become the ultimate Mother's Day gift. With a free app (no subscriptions, ever), I can send photos and short videos straight to her frame in seconds. Better yet, it's just $50 right now — nearly 45% off. (Need some more ideas on what to give your mom? Whether you're looking for an inexpensive gift under $50, want to surprise your mom with an unforgettable experience or you're just trying to avoid a Mother's Day gifting faux pas, we've got you covered.) At $50, the Frameo is just shy of its lowest price ever. When you consider that most other digital picture frames still hover between $60 and $70 on sale, this one's a steal. Plus, with its user-friendly features, you're getting serious bang for your buck. If your idea of digital photo frames is stuck in the past, it's time to catch up. The Frameo is miles ahead of those clunky models from a decade ago, with way more features and a far easier setup. No need for cables — you can send photos and up to 15-second videos from anywhere, thanks to the free app. The 1280x800 high-definition display makes everything look crisp, whether it's a smile, a messy face or a dance party in the living room. With 16GB of built-in storage (expandable to 32GB via microSD), it holds thousands of pictures and videos. Plus, it looks sharp from almost any angle with a 178-degree viewing range — none of that washed-out nonsense. It won't matter whether the image is portrait or landscape, either. Frameo automatically rotates images to the correct position. On top of that, you can zoom in, add captions, adjust brightness and more. It's fully customizable, making it a perfect way to keep your favorite moments on display. We're all taking more pictures than ever, so why not showcase them in style? Yahoo Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida tested the Frameo, and it cracked his list of the best digital photo frames of 2025. "I was pleased to find a complete, informative instruction manual in the box," he said of setting up this gadget. "And it's not just for the frame; it also focuses on the Frameo companion app, which is used to upload photos. ... I like that it can do two important things that some more expensive frames can't: Auto-size photos (either globally or individually) and export all your photos to external storage. All told, I'm pretty impressed by what you get for the money here." With over 1,800 five-star ratings, the Frameo is a popular gadget — and it's so very giftable. "I got my mom a Frameo, and it has been a game changer," wrote one five-star fan and thoughtful child. "I couldn't resist getting one for myself ... The app works seamlessly, allowing me to send photos to my mom's frame and upload countless pictures to my own. It's such a thoughtful way to stay connected with loved ones. .... The setup process was a breeze." And don't let geography get in the way of your getting this frame. This dutiful daughter didn't: "I got this for my parents when I moved out of state. Easy enough to set up on the phone with them. Easy to send photos too. You can delete old ones from your app so they just have to sit back and enjoy the photos." There's even a social aspect to the frame. "You can interact with images and videos that are sent to you by touching the screen and adding emojis back to the sender. So fun!" one fan said. The design could still use a bit of work, says this reviewer: "It must be plugged in (as I would expect); however, the cord isn't very long and the plug that goes into the outlet is big and bulky." Another shopper said they wished it could go cordless altogether. "I wouldn't mind if it took batteries so I could place it anywhere." The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication. If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)
