I think that's exactly what OP is arguing here. The website (which they didn't link to) showed entirely different capabilities than what the product can do. Nothing "objectively wrong" about that
EDIT: Take this website for example [1]. I have no idea if this is the website OP ordered from (it's just one of the top google results), but if I ordered a picture frame from this website, and it turned out to be what OP ended up with, I would 100% consider that a scam. No question.

- dandelany 4y agoOK, but that is just one product. I agree that some companies are overselling e-ink in a way that is scammy, but that doesn’t mean the whole market is a scam. Plenty of products eg. Inkplate are upfront about what you’re getting, and I think it looks pretty good, albeit not nearly as good as a proper print.
- fereptocles 4y agoI work there as a software developer, definitely not a scam. It’s not your 50$ kindle quality e-ink. You can check some youtube videos about it to see the real life capabilities of the frame.
