Advantages: Quick print time, quiet, zero ink technology, portable, looks good, good quality sticky prints

Disadvantages: None

The Poloroid PoGo sees a return to the classic polaroid picture thanks to this magnificent little piece of kit.
The printer is about the size of an Ipod Classic but double the depth and weighs in at approx 250 grams with a rechargeable battery. The printer produces prints of 2 x 3 inches, with the printer allowing about 15 prints on a full battery and the prints able to be stuck to anything thanks to the paper needed for this paper being sticky backed. The best thing about the printer is that it has no ink which makes it cheaper to run, means that you need not worry about your ink running out whilst you are out and about. So how does the printer work? The printer works by using a specialist paper that has crystals embedded within each sheet and thanks to the printer using heat the crystals will colour thus producing prints that are dry straight away and so ensuring no smugdes.

I absolutely love this printer as I have been so impressed with the print quality (the prints are not quite as good as normal photo prints but these are Poloroid prints so you know to expect this). The prints take about 60 seconds per picture with a quietness that impressed me imensely. My favourite thing about the printer though is how easy it was to print from as you just use either bluetooth or plug in your PictureBridge enabled device. The paper is about 20 pence to 35 pence depending on pack size you purchase so I would advise to shop around. The printer looks the part, prints great quality small prints that you can stick (I am currently working on a wedding album that I can write comments into and already have my next project in place for my mother in laws 60th birthday), is lightweight, small enough to take with you, thanks to a rechargeable battery is very portable and finally feels fantastically well built.

Summary: A great little printer for fans of Polaroid pictures but just know what you are getting
