With or without glass?

The E-Ink picture frame comes with a glass pane by default. While this protects the display, it can also cause distracting reflections. If you want to enhance the paper look and improve contrast, you can easily remove the pane: no tools required.

Here's how to proceed:

Sequenz 03

Place the frame face down.

Sequenz 03

Press the clamps on the sides open. Caution: The edges can be sharp! Only touch them at the folded part to avoid cutting yourself.

Sequenz 03

Remove the cover of the battery compartment.

Sequenz 03

Lift the back panel of the frame.

Sequenz 03

Carefully pull out the small wooden strips on the sides.

Sequenz 03

Take the entire unit out of the frame.

Sequenz 03

Now you can remove the glass pane: it is no longer needed.

Reassemble the frame in reverse order.

Done! Your E-Ink picture frame is now even more paper-like :)
