Peculiarities

The Ritmix company was founded in South Korea in 2000 and initially was engaged in the development and production of MP3 players. Gradually the company expanded its assortment and nowadays produces small consumer electronics: from game consoles and tablets to digital photo frames .

All production facilities of the company are located in China, and the South Korean office is mainly engaged in the development and testing of new models of equipment.

The main advantages of Ritmix digital photo frames:

• low price - depending on the functions and parameters, the Ritmix photo frame will cost from 2,800 to 10,000 rubles, which is noticeably cheaper than the products of other Korean companies;
• affordable repair - there are certified SC of the company in all major cities of Russia and neighboring countries;
• stylish design - photo frames of the Korean company fit well in almost any interior;
• reliability - the build quality of these frames is noticeably higher than that of the products of firms entirely based in China;
• high image quality - modern displays are used within the framework.

This technique also has disadvantages:

• bad instruction - most of the supplied operating instructions for this technique are translated into Russian very poorly, therefore, for a better understanding of the features of using the framework, you will have to use its English version;
• insufficient number of photo display options - products of other companies boast a large number of options for setting up a slideshow, for example, the RDF-708D model has only 5 display modes, while analogues of this frame from other manufacturers usually have more than 15 display modes;
• small amount of own memory - models of other companies similar in other characteristics often have a much larger amount of built-in memory, while here it is only enough for 3 photos;
• no battery - all models of the company work only from the network.

• Feature set … Most modern photo frames can not only display and flip through photos in slideshow mode, but also play videos and play audio files, which makes them a portable multimedia center. If you are happy with your multimedia devices and do not intend to use the frame for listening to music and watching movies, it is worth choosing a device without these functions, which will save a little. It is also worth deciding in advance if you need such features of the frame as a touchscreen display, Wi-Fi module, clock or organizer.
