The best Mother’s Day gifts for 2023

Nixplay Touch 10 Smart Frame features: 10.1-inch touch screen | 1280 x 800 resolution | Wi-Fi connectivity | Supports JPEG, PNG, and TIFF image formats 

My mom takes a lot of photos — I should really be buying her more iPhone storage, but that's not that fun of a gift. Instead of sorting through her many pictures, trying to guess her favorite, and then limiting her collection to one frame, I'm looking at the NixPlay Touch 10 Smart Frame. According to ZDNET's review, the frame is easy to set up, has an accompanying app that gives you unlimited photo storage, and the ability to upload pictures straight from your smartphone. 

There's even an “invite feature” in which you can collaborate with family and friends to add photos or make a playlist — I know I'll leverage this to enlist the help of my dad and stepdad's photo libraries and wallets to cover the $129 price tag. With a high-resolution screen (1280 x 800) sure to display all my mom's favorite memories, it's a sentimental, practical, and collaborative gift. 

Also: This digital photo frame is actually pretty sweet (and not just for boomers) 

The frame comes in black, classic matte, and wood, giving it a traditional outer display. The inside is a touchscreen in which you can control brightness, the auto-shutoff timer, and even an activity time sensor that automatically shuts off after little to no activity detection. And according to Allison Murray, a Nixplay Touch 10 owner herself, the frame is easy to set up, seamlessly connecting to Wi-Fi straight out of the box. While this frame is ZDNET's choice for best digital frame, be sure to check out our full list for some other options.
