The whole family around the Akimart 21.5-inch at Christmas

Akimart's 21.5-inch Frameo frame is the one to choose when the slideshow is meant for a crowd. At Christmas or a big birthday, a 21.5-inch picture lets the whole family see the photos at once, from the sofa, the dining table and the doorway.

The screen is a 1920x1080 IPS touch panel, and at 21.5 inches the picture measures roughly 18.7 by 10.5 inches, more than twice the area of a 15.6-inch frame. The IPS panel keeps colours steady for people sitting off to the side, which matters when the audience is spread around a room.

The main features in one place:

  • A 21.5-inch Full HD touch screen, readable from across a lounge.
  • VESA wall mounting, plus a detachable stand for a sideboard.
  • Dual Wi-Fi on 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
  • 32GB of memory, with USB and SD for more.
  • Slideshow control: transition speed, transition effects and repeat mode.
  • Clock and weather, shown or hidden as the family prefers.

The frame has a black wooden look over a plastic body, which keeps it lighter than solid wood while still suiting a traditional room. Overall it measures about 20 by 12 inches.

A slideshow for the party. Before a family gathering, set a slower transition speed and a gentle effect, and ask everyone to send their photos from the day. By dessert the frame is showing the afternoon back to the people who lived it.

Akimart's smaller 15.6-inch frame shares the same software and Wi-Fi, so a family can match a big frame in the lounge with a smaller one elsewhere.

Hanging the Akimart ZN-DP2101 on a VESA bracket

VESA is the standard hole pattern on the back of televisions and monitors, and the Akimart 21.5-inch frame supports it. That means the frame can hang on the same kind of bracket used for a small TV, flat to the wall or on an arm that tilts.

Hanging it well takes a little planning:

  1. Choose the bracket. Check the VESA hole spacing on the back of the frame and pick a bracket that matches it and is rated for its weight.
  2. Mind the socket. The frame runs on mains power, so hang it close to an outlet.
  3. Set it up first. Connect Wi-Fi and send the first photos while it stands on its table stand.
  4. Pick the height. Eye level when seated suits a lounge; higher suits a hallway.
  5. Hang and rotate. Auto-rotate turns the photos to match how the frame hangs.

A tilting bracket helps above a fireplace, where a frame hung high can angle down towards the sofa. The IPS panel already handles side angles well, and a slight tilt helps with the vertical one.

If drilling is not an option, the detachable stand holds the frame on a wide sideboard or a low bookcase. It can move to the wall later without changing anything else.

Hide the cable. On a wall, a paintable cable cover or a run behind a bookcase keeps the adapter lead out of sight so the frame looks like a picture, not a gadget.

The Wi-Fi works on either band, which helps if the frame hangs far from the router: 2.4GHz reaches further through walls. See the Wi-Fi guide if it struggles to connect.

Wedding, holidays and grandchildren in separate Akimart albums

A 21.5-inch frame tends to collect a lot of photos, and Akimart's album feature keeps them organised. Group pictures by event or by person on the frame, then switch the slideshow between albums whenever the mood changes.

Families use albums in different ways:

  • A wedding album that plays on the anniversary.
  • One album per grandchild, so each gets a turn.
  • A holiday album for the week after the trip.
  • A memorial album for a relative who has passed away.

On a screen this size, an album becomes an occasion. Switching to the wedding album on an anniversary evening turns the lounge wall into a gallery of the day, with faces large enough that everyone can point out who is who.

Photos reach the frame from the free Frameo app on iPhone and Android. Each relative pairs once with the frame's code, then sends photos and 15-second clips from anywhere, with an optional caption. Strangers have no way in.

The USB and SD slots handle the rest. Copy old albums onto a stick in JPG, JPEG, BMP or PNG, or MP4 for video, push it in, and import the pictures or play them straight from the stick. Longer videos copied this way are not limited to 15 seconds.

Settings for the owner sit on the touch screen:

  1. Play order and zoom for each slideshow.
  2. Hide a photo from the rotation without deleting it.
  3. Brightness for a sunny room or a dim evening.
  4. Sleep mode to switch the screen off at night.

Reactions and greetings keep it two-way: a heart back to the sender, or a themed card on a birthday. The calendar sync puts upcoming events beside the photos.

For sending tips, see adding photos to a Frameo frame, and for cards, the memory card guide.

Akimart 21.5 against the YENOCK and BIGASUO 21.5-inch frames

Every 21.5-inch Frameo frame in this group shares a 1920x1080 screen, so the differences are in mounting, memory and finish. The Akimart stands out for its VESA mount and slideshow controls.

YENOCKWall bracket and stand included32GB, USB and SDCoffee wood
BIGASUOWall or stand64GB, USB and SDBlack and white

YENOCK's frame suits a warm room with its real wooden border and a bracket in the box. BIGASUO's doubles the memory for a family with a vast archive. The Akimart is the pick for a TV-style wall bracket, weather on screen and fine control over the slideshow.

Moonka also builds a 21.5-inch frame in brown wood with Wi-Fi 6 support, another warm option for a traditional lounge. Arktronic's 21.5-inch model leans towards the family planner, with a synced calendar and collages of up to six photos on its Full HD screen.

Size is the other decision. A 21.5-inch screen suits a room where people sit two or three metres away. If the frame will stand in a kitchen or on a desk, Akimart's own 15.6-inch model keeps every feature, including dual Wi-Fi and the weather, in a frame that takes about half the wall space.

Before choosing the Akimart, check these points:

  1. Wall space. Allow about 20 by 12 inches.
  2. The bracket. Match a VESA bracket to the holes on the back.
  3. Memory. 32GB plus USB and SD suits most families.
  4. The room. A 21.5-inch screen is for viewing from several steps away.

The Frameo size guide compares 21.5 inches with the smaller and larger frames.
