♦ Introduction ♦The Instax Mini LiPlay is an all-in-one handheld instant-print camera and printer (camera and printer hybrid); with this device, you can not only instantly print photos after taking them with the camera, it also has the ability to receive photos directly from a smart-device such as your phone and print them also.Fujifilm actually manufacture a similar device but without the camera which is called the 'Instax Share SP-2', it's a product that I use very often and one that I rate highly. Some may question what the point of having the LiPlay over the SP-2 when they both do a similar job. Well,here are the benefits of the LiPlay over the SP-2 printer:• In-built camera means you can take and print photos on the go without having to worry about connecting to further external devices. The front of the camera has a small mirror to help align those "perfect" selfies.• Has a sound-recording features where you can capture the audio at the time of taking a photo.• There are a variety of filters and frames to overlay on top of your photo when taking it.They both have room on the market, it's just down to your preference of how many features you want. If you're not fussed with the camera, it should be cheaper getting the standalone printer, which means more money spare for extra film.♦ Included Items & Extras ♦- Box Contents:• LiPlay camera.• Wrist strap.• Micro-USB charging cable.• Instruction manual.- Required Extras:• Instax Mini Film.** I was very disappointed to find that this camera does not come with any film, despite there being a perfect slot in the cardboard packaging! Even a 10-pack would have been nice. The film type you want is 'Instax Mini' which typically come in packs or 20 or 50 - each cartridge holds a maximum of 10 photos. You can get funky coloured framed prints which typically come in packs of 10. Please bare this in mind if you decide to purchase the camera.- Optional Extras:• MicroSD: For extra storage.♦ Set-Up & Usability ♦Like anything that requires power, before use, give the camera a decent charge. When you initially turn the camera on, it will ask you to select language, input the date-format and date/time, all of which can be changed at any time.When inserting the film, you need to slide the release-hatch to and open the rear of the camera (underneath the LCD screen); there is a yellow-strip which needs to be aligned with the cartridge. Once this has been inserted properly and the compartment closed, the camera will automatically print out a blank piece of plastic - from this point, do not open the hatch until ALL the film has been used, otherwise you risk exposing and ruining the remaining film.This camera isn't the best for handing as it can be a bit awkward to hold, however it's just the matter of getting used to it.From the get-go, you can take photos and print on a whim, adding filters and frames should you want to. The filters and frames can be added after you have taken them when in playback mode.- Sound Recording:You can also add sound recordings to your photos by pressing the microphone button at the front, this is also a feature that can be used both when taking the photo or after. It works by recording audio as you are taking the photo (must activate this by pressing the record button); you can then add a QR code to the photo when printing which allows you to play a recording at a later date. This is an optional setting that some may not like as it requires adding a QR onto your photo and may become an eye-sore; it also requires you to be connected to the app when printing for it to transfer the recording over.- Camera App:On the App store, there should be an app called 'mini LiPlay'. To use it in conjunction with the camera, your Bluetooth will have to be turned on your device. The App's user interface is actually rather basic, however it does the job. The App allows you to view your photos with audio; remote shooting options which also features live view; assign frames/effects to your shortcut buttons on the camera; direct printing (select a photo from your phone).The App for me worked very well and I found it very simple overall to navigate around.♦ Printing Results ♦The mini photo prints came out as expected: A nice clear image whilst delivering a fairly soft look, just how my SP-2 prints them out. I personally think they look great.TIP: As soon as they are printed, place them face-down or in a dark place for approximately 10 minutes for the best results.♦ Final Thoughts ♦The Instax Mini LiPlay is fairly compact in size and has an easy to use interface on bot, the camera and App. This product offers a variety of cool features such as the filters and it's nice to get something physical (ideal size from scrapbooks and journals). Overall, this is a product I would highly recommend - 5*/5*.

The ability to see the image before exposing the film on these hybrid Instax cameras makes for a completely different experience. While you loose the sometimes unpredictable nature of the analogue cameras, you're not going to use up any film on iffy shots with this.That said, the built in camera on this is rather average. It's perfect for handing to someone for a quick picture, taking group shots etc, but it really shines as a printer with images taken with a good smartphone. I'd definitely take the versatility of this model over a print-only Instax device though.It's easy to use, versatile and convenient overall. A good addition to the range.

Definitely the best Instax camera money can buy - worth spending the extra on this model. It connects to your phone so you can print directly from your phone onto Instax film. You can also shoot on the camera multiple times before choosing which shot to print, which is so helpful because on the old Instax cameras thej automatically print every shot even if its over exposed or too dark. So this one is the best and I’d highly recommend!

My Daughter was impressed with the prints only downside is the price of the film it is expensive if they reduced the price of the film people would buy more so my Daughter would watch what she is printing. We bought a mini sd card to save the photos to give the option to get the print cheaper in digital format.

Santa got this for my daughter at Christmas. It is so easy to use and has the huge bonus of having a micro SD card so not everything needs to be printed! She loves it!! Slight downside is that the film is expensive, hence the importance of SD card versus earlier models that ONLY printed!

Great mini camera with the ability to record movement and/or sound that anyone can access with the QR code - this is a game changer and is great for teens. Simple to use and stylish as well, this is one of the best instax minis to be made and is definitely worth its price.

Fun and easy to use but it’s hard sometimes to connect via bluetooth. I deleted the app and downloaded again. Amazon USA offers the same for a cheaper price wish I bought it there, founded at cheaper price in a Fujifilm store in Thailand too.

Fab camera works awesome as a Polaroid and phone photo printing just a shame if you want to use it with a memory card you lose the LCD veiwing panel and theres no way of uploading the 45 photos that store on the cameras internal memory.

I absolutely love this camera! I think its Very practical as you can check if the photo you took is worth to print, saves you film. The app is also easy to use and it prints photos from your phone with no problem. Highly recommend!

Looks really good, and works great. The digital screen is a great bonus and there is not a difference between regular polaroid film pictures and the digital ones
