Several Strategist writers and editors are fans of the Aura Mason digital picture frame because it’s an excellent way to display your beloved photos for everyone to see. It’s easy to set up, and you can link it to your Google Photos or Apple iCloud library to sync photos automatically. Alternatively, you can do a little more hands-on curation by sending photos directly to a custom email address. There’s even an ambient sensor to automatically adjust the brightness of the display.
The Mason works great as a gift, too. “Aura lets you preload the frame remotely with photos and a gift message, so when it ships straight to your giftee, all they have to do is download the app and connect the frame to Wi-Fi,” says Strategist senior editor Jen Trolio, “These frames are simple to update, they look nice with just about any décor, and they strike a good balance between having physical photos displayed in your home and the undeniable convenience of the internet age.” Right now, it’s discounted 32 percent, so if you’re looking for a gift that’ll keep a loved one smiling year round, it’s a good time to buy.
