The bar is a neat feature that you won’t find in just any digital frame, and it’s inconspicuous enough that you don’t notice the slider from a distance. This touch bar is in lieu of a touchscreen.

I tested it for two weeks to find out, evaluating its design, setup, display quality, and software. With a companion app for easily uploading photos from your phone or social media, digital photo frames like the Aura Carver can serve as home decor or gifts for loved ones.
