Each model features Samsung’s exclusive Starlight Touch Controls which integrate the On Screen Display (OSD) buttons into the bezel. Starlight Touch features capacitive touch buttons, which disappear from the bezel after 10 seconds of inactivity.

Samsung’s Display Product Manager, Jeff Muto explains, “Samsung has identified a need in the market for quality photo frames that offer improved front of screen performance, quality design and enhanced versatility. Using Samsung’s UbiSync feature is as simple as plugging the photo frame into your USB port. Then you can have a secondary monitor for your media player, tool palettes or whatever your needs may be. With other built-in features like WiFi for easy photo sharing and auto-resize functionality which enhances ease of use, these new digital photo frames push the versatility envelope.”
