Put the fun back in photo
I got this camera as a fun Christmas gift for my partner. She adores it, she has fancy digital cameras with all the bells and whistles but she loves the fun of this one. The options of having a border and 3 color choices help add to the fun plus the photo booth 4 pics in one option is a gas. She went all crazy buying a nice case for it along with a ton more film. I think it's her favorite gift this year. The camera could come with a bit more inst... Show More

Great Camera for sharing the moment with strangers
in Today's world of Instagram, Facebook and many other social platforms you might ask yourself why you need a polaroid style camera to print a rather small picture instantly ? if you travel a lot and meet interesting people you don't know and that are not on your social circle, it becomes handy as when you snap a shared photo you can give them the print as a souvenir while on the same time your memory card holds an electronic copy to upload later...

Gimmick camera
This camera is really just about worthless. Sorry but the idea is to sell film paper. Prints look so so. yes you can shoot to a card but there isn't anyway to view images with out downloading to a device. so worthless. It would be nice if you could decide which picture you would like to print but you can't. so again worthless. Basically goes back to the polaroid days of the 70's and 80's. so a bit pointless. and the final worthless part is they p... Show More

Nice camera the picture quality low
The camera is ok the picture quality is low but little snap shots it was fun to use but I would say it’s not as good as the old style Polaroid prints. I wouldn’t buy it again. But for photo booth type photos it’s worth using for kids Party. I wouldn’t take it on holiday low quality. And sometimes the photos don’t print. Also I got a free pack of 20 prints but when I opened them it looked like water damage or something in the packages of prints sealed up must of got a bad batch

Camera Stopped working after 9 pictures
We just opened this camera. Took 9 pictures. We were very careful with it. Tried to take one last picture to use the last slip of photo paper inside. Now it's jammed. We've reloaded the paper. It won't take any new pictures and it won't do anything.. not even take digital pictures. This is a piece of junk and I want my money back. I even tried hooking it up to the computer to get it to transfer the pictures already on there and the computer isn't even recognizing it. I've tried all 3 USB ports.

Easy to use but not what I expected
This item is light and very portable. It was easy to set-up and use on the day of the event for which it was purchased. Although it produced instant photos as per the label, the photos were 4-1 and not 1-1 as expected. Most importantly the photo quality was poor. It’s disappointing as this is supposed to be a modern Kodak camera but in reality the older cameras that produced Polaroid photos were of much superior quality. However the Argos team at HSK were quick in processing my purchase

Expensive for what it is
My 9 year old daughter wanted one of these for christmas. She likes the instant photo design. I think she was less impressed by the pictures it produced. Only 2" by 3", and so far the image quality has been quite poor. When used with flash it can produce reasonable images, as long as it is about 2-3 feet from the object, otherwise it is too washout or too dark. I am hoping that the images it produces outdoor is better, but we have not had a chance to try it our yet. You can use an sd card too.

Ideal for my mother's 80th birthday knees-up
This camera provided loads of fun and instant memories for a visitors book at a birthday event. The smallish photos take a while to print out but the peel-able sticky-backs make them versatile. Some photos are wasted until the user gets used to the camera control buttons, which are too easy to press by accident. Not a camera to pass around to first-time users at a noisy party - but once used to it, guests tend to like the novelty of an instant printout. The removable memory card is a bonus.

Great retro camera
I recently bought this camera for my 4 year old for his birthday. He loves using phones & old camera to take pictures so thought this was perfect. It's a decent size & simple to use. No fiddly buttons to faff with. Pics can be store on a memory card. His face when I printed the picture straight away made it a worthwhile present that we can all as a family enjoy. The printing quality isn't the best however if you choose the black and white mode the image quality seems to be better.

Really nice
Great little camera, easy to carry around as it fits in your pocket nice and easy compared to the big clumpy polaroid cameras. Picture quality isn't amazing and probably not as good as the traditional polaroid's in low light conditions, outside on a sunny day it's great. Really easy to use, the papers are cheap and and don't smudge or anything after printing. The biggest problem is i keep forgetting to take off the lens and have printed about 5 black photos now!!!

Great little instant print Polaroid
This Polaroid has a small lightweight and easy to use design. Takes great mini photos with a choice of Polaroid frame or no frame at all and what's best is, there is no shaking! Instant pictures come out on intelligent zink paper with a choice of black and white, soft colour or full colour. This Polaroid has given me memories of my trip like I wouldn't beleive! Would be great if 1. Instructions came with it and 2. A protective travel case was available for it.

Fun Camera, But No User Guide
I use the Snap purely for fun. I love the instant prints, although they don't look as great as Polaroid claims they will look. My kids love sticking the prints to my refrigerator, and on their school folders. The biggest complaint I have with the Snap, it does not come with a user's guide. So thankfully there is YouTube to assist in figuring out how to use the Snap properly. However, I like the Snap so much that I bought one for my daughter, as well.

Good camera and easy to use
The camera was slightly tricky to set up as the blue paper wouldn't go through, I solved this by taking out some of the photo paper and it worked fine after that. The pictures are good quality and the camera is a nice size. Only thing is that the wrist strap is on the opposite side to the button used to take a picture, this makes it a bit hard to take a selfie. Other than that it's a fab camera and I can't wait to take it on Holiday!

Expected more of it
Good things to say: cool compact design, printed photos can be stickers, slot for microSd card, timer, usb charged,... Bad things to say: poor quality of photos, flash can’t be activated when you want/need to, it’s an automatic function that seems to work only in very dark conditions. In my opinion, it’s a fun camera for kids. If you are looking for good/decent quality printed photos, avoid buying this camera.

A modernised classic.
The instructions for the camera aren't overly helpful, and it took a couple of tries to get it working, but once sorted it is a really great piece of kit. Providing the lighting is adequate, the picture quality is really good. The only real negatives were that on a couple of occasions it just didn't work and once the lens pops up the camera is on so you can take photos by accident without a case and drain the battery.

Compact and easy to use once you know how !
A great product except for one thing. There is no manual. There's a rainbow coloured slim box on which the camera rests and you think "Ah. There's the instructions" then when you open it there are two pieces of card inside. I learned what was what on it from YouTube but anyone without a computer would be lost and will have to find someone with a computer to charge it. Mixed feelings then, but I love it anyway.

Nice little camera.
Purchased for my daughter as a present, read reviews and chose this make instead of other options. Easy to use , nice picture quality. Bit disappointed with application which doesn’t appear to work and will not connect ??? Having researched more I have found that this is a problem with this camera because it doesn’t emit a WiFi signal !!! Bit misleading by company , however works perfectly well.

Great for a kid
Bought it for my 10 year old's birthday and she used it on a trip to Italy. Absolutely loved it, although sometimes pictures didn't come out quite as planned (accidentally hit the "black and white" button, moved the camera too soon after a picture, etc). Overall, it was easy to use and really fun to have the photos right away. She loves it and can't wait to use it on our next holiday.

Great Camera for a wonerful price!
I mentioned this camera really a great one but still I ranked it 4star. To the point everything is great about this camera the only thing is the picture size 2X3 inches is a little bit small. If they had design with at least 5x4 inches, would have been awesome! I bought it for my wife and she loves it and not for the color combination is also great for the price they are offering.

Christmas Gift For My Daughter
The camera was a gift for my daughter, she like the camera and found it easy to use. For setup the charging is easy and loading paper was explained well with illustrations. SD card inserted still learning what that does and how that works. Overall my daughter is happy with the design and easy usage of the camera. Print quality is good enough and does what it’s says.

Why did I buy this?
I don't know, it was an impulse buy, I thought it would be fun. I knew it was basically a toy camera but even so, the picture quality is hideous and they're tiny! For some reason the paper you print on has a peel-off back, so I guess you could use this as a... sticker maker?? I'll probably end up recycling this, as I cannot imagine anyone wanting to buy it from me.

Snap is not for me
It looks good the picture quality is fair but it is so hard to focus. We always have to guess whether we are getting the whole picture and most of the time our head are cut off or we only get the other side of the picture so we stop using it. It ruined our christmas dinner because everybody tried to use it and out of 20 prints it was only 1 picture that looks fine.

Camera
Bought as a gift for Xmas but very disappointed with the picture quality! Very small pictures to start with but the quality of the print is poor. There are 3 options colour wise but have found black and white to be best so far. Picture quality not great when printed as there are lines all through the picture! Thought they would be retro looking but they are not!
