It used to be that everyone just carry around pictures in their wallets, but now that the pictures have been digitized the playing field has changed. Enter keychain digital photography, a small photo display unit that allows you to take your photos wherever you go. To use a digital photo key chain that you need a computer and a digital camera. Depending on what type of computer you have, you may want to get a keychain that holds up well systems Windows or Mac and Windows.

In general, key chains come with their own copyrighted software you need to install on your computer. This lets you copy photos to key chain and manage them in the future. There are some units that do not require this software and when connected to your computer that will act as key flask disk. These types of units are useful for people who use Linux or other operating systems are not as common.

Most digital keychains on the market today come with 4 MB or more of built in memory. The more memory the unit has, the more pictures you can store on it. Normally, 8MB allows you to store photos enough. The screen size can vary from 1.5 inches to 1.8 inches. Depending on the screen may not be able to see the photos clearly, so I would opt for a better screen, even if it costs a few dollars more. The digital photo key chains are charged through a USB cable connected to a computer. The USB cable is also how images are copied into the ring with the software mentioned above. Most batteries will last keychain about 3 hours when fully charged.

To prolong battery life becomes the only device you want to scan actively to the photos. The Coby 1.5 "digital key chain is a inexpensive model I would recommend. It is compatible with PCs and Macs. It has a whooping 16MB memory card and has a slideshow mode. This device is charged via USB and battery life is average. This is the best digital inexpensive key chains on the market in my opinion. If money is not a concern, then I would with the Genius 1-inch Digital Photo Keychain.

This is a bit more expensive and is somewhat smaller than Coby key chains. However, holds up to 80 photos and is smarter than the Coby. There's even a cover for the screen so you do not have to worry about scratches. The device also includes a calendar and a clock that can be displayed on the screen. The clock includes alarm functions. They enjoy watching the images and the performance with you wherever you go.
