I don’t print enough pictures, but the power draw, ugly cord and screen glare of digital photo frames have kept me from fully embracing the technology. A new digital frame, however, is drawing inspiration from the e-ink screens on eReaders to create a frame with minimal glare and power draw. Announced during CES 2025, the PocketBook InkPoster is a digital picture frame that uses e-ink technology to display art without cords or backlight.
Developed as a collaboration between PocketBook, E Ink and Sharp, the InkPoster only draws power when it switches the art on the screen. That creates a low-power, eco-conscious wireless display that can last up to a year before needing a recharge, the company claims.
