Polaroid Pop Instant Print Digital Camera (Green)

The Polaroid Pop tries to bridge analog and digital, but the design is so mediocre you'll end up throwing a fit before you get any fun shots.

  Has a GIF maker mode

  Slow autofocus • Laggy touchscreen • Printed photos aren't stickers • Display scratches really easily • Crummy video quality

The ZINK instant print technology lacks any of the nostalgic wonder you would feel when using an original Polaroid camera. The photo print quality is similar to, if not worse than, the quality of a bundled inkjet printer.

Frustrating to use and simply not worth the hassle – the Polaroid Pop is one to avoid.

  Combines a camera and a printer, Touchscreen display

  Incredibly buggy and frustrating to use, Expensive consumables, Poor print quality, Feels cheap and scratches easily, Seriously, it's really buggy

So, I'll preface this review by saying that I might be spoiled. I have a Canon 70D and I print my photos on a Canon Pixma 10. Between the two of them, I feel like I come pretty close to flawlessness.I'll start with the positives. The concept is great.

Pictures print out great

This camera was touted as being wifi and blutooth compatible. Also, promoted that images could be edited in camera before printing. Pairs poorly and unpredictably with my iPhone and I am not a novice at this using this function. Very irritating, very quickly.
