TL;DR SwitchBot has announced a new digital frame with an E-Ink Spectra 6 display for rich and vivid visuals.
More importantly, it uses Gemini’s Nano Banana to help you create custom artworks.
The frame is available in three sizes, ranging from 7.3 to 31.5 inches.
AI has become the definitive buzzword for a wide range of technologies, gadgets, and software. But it may now be making way into our homes in an unusual way. SwitchBot, known for products that help you smart-ify various dumb aspects of your home — and also for quirky household robots disguised as stuffed toys — is now bringing AI to the humble photo frame.
SwitchBot has launched a new digital photo frame, called AI Art Frame, which it previously showcased at the IFA 2025 trade show in Berlin. Unlike a regular photo frame, this one is far more than a mere screen on the wall. Instead, it features a colored E-Ink Spectra 6 display with a paper-like texture and vivid colors that make your photos look like actual posters.
But that’s not the main highlight SwitchBot is promoting. Instead, you can create custom artwork using Gemini’s Nano Banana to display on the AI Art Frame. Although this isn’t an official collaboration with Google, the SwitchBot companion app integrates Gemini through its API, allowing you to generate a new image, modify an existing one, or blend two images using Nano Banana’s Remix functionality. Once you create the image, you can sync it with the photo frame wirelessly.
