▼ Summary
– The author highly recommends Aura digital picture frames, which are their top pick and have received consistent praise over five years of use.
– Multiple Aura frames are currently on sale for Cyber Monday, with discounts ranging from $30 to $60 off, and all share core features like a great app and unlimited free photo storage.
– The best deals include the 10-inch Carver frame (down to $139) and the large, wall-mountable 15-inch Walden frame, which is the author’s favorite for its size and versatility.
– The mid-sized, 12-inch Aspen frame is also a recommended option that offers rotation and wall-mounting, though its discount is not as significant as others.

Among the many gadgets in my home, it’s the Aura digital picture frames that consistently draw admiration. This Cyber Monday presents a perfect opportunity to acquire one for your own space or as a thoughtful holiday gift. Having featured them prominently in my guide to the best digital photo frames, I’ve personally used these frames for over five years and remain thoroughly impressed. The current sale offers significant savings, with discounts ranging from $30 to $60 across most models. While each frame provides the same excellent app and unlimited free photo storage, the primary distinctions lie in screen size and physical design. Every option I’ve tested is beautifully crafted and well-suited for tabletops or, for select models, wall mounting.
For those seeking the top value, the 10-inch Aura Carver frame stands out. Both its standard and mat designs are now priced at $139, a particularly notable markdown for the typically more expensive Carver Mat. This model displays photos in landscape orientation but can cleverly pair portrait shots side-by-side. A special holiday edition, the Carver Stone with a textured finish, is also available for $149.
The most substantial discount applies to the largest model, the 15-inch Aura Walden. This mat-style frame features a flat back for wall mounting and can be rotated between landscape and portrait modes. Its generous size makes it a stunning focal point, easily viewable from across a room. If the Walden seems too large, the 12-inch Aura Aspen offers a versatile middle ground. It shares the same rotation and mounting capabilities, along with the seamless app experience and unlimited storage. While its discount is smaller, it represents a balanced choice of size and functionality.
It is worth noting that not every frame is part of the promotion. Aura’s innovative e-ink model, the Aura Ink, is not on sale. Priced at $499, this battery-powered frame can be mounted without visible cords and uses a unique algorithm to render photos in a detailed, newspaper-print style using just six colors. Its absence from the sale is disappointing for those eyeing this premium, cord-free option.
