Great product I love the throwback look of the pictures. Camera quality is what you would expect of a Polaroid camera. Nice compact size, easy to use, you do need a SD card to have more pictures without you will only be able to store 5 pictures other than that you would have to print them out on the spot. Holds about 10 slips of film max.

Wasn't sure what to expect from a Zink camera but this was great and was a big hit at my daughter's Sweet 16 party! Guests were able to take pictures and had the option to delete if they didn't like it rather than wasting picture paper on bad photos.

As others have pointed out, the picture colors tend not to be bright and true to life (unless you're really close up on the subject and in very good lighting) but this kind of plays into the charm of the retro-looking photos and it wasn't an issue for me. The camera is super easy to charge, use, and reload, and it's easy to carry around. Since it has an SD card, you can give away the pictures you take and still reprint more for yourself later or download to your computer instead of only having the one chance. I'm using it to capture fun moments with friends but also to catalog what I'm storing in some small cardboard boxes: just stick the photo on the front! It's a really cute little thing and every time I've used it around others, people have asked me what model it is because they want to get one, too.

I was expecting a low quality camera for my daughter's birthday's gift, but not this piece of s....This is definitly a waste of money !-First the Camera Quality is such awful, even a 5y old cell phone is better.-There's so many noise at low light even when using the Flash.-The Camera crashed constantly when browsing the pictures taken. (I just got 5 pic in memory)-The Pic loading time is soooo slow. (Almost 2s per picture)-It doen't come with a charger, but just an USB Cable.-The printer didn't work at all. Impossible to print any pictures.-No possibility to set the MicroSD Card, as the default browsing picture folder. (It means, each time you want to browse them, you need to choose between the internal memory, or the SD... Not user friend at all).-All the picture taken are not saved by default, you need to confirm the saving manually using the OK button.-No Firmware update since 2019, which means that Kodak intentionally decided to not take of their own product.Kodak, Never again !

Es un producto increíble, la calidad de la foto es buena pero nada de otro mundo, es muy divertida y es excelente para niños, la recomiendo usar en eventos familiares o amistosos donde queremos guardar un bonito recuerdo de ese día, el papel también es fácil de conseguir.

After doing a lot of research (but apparently not enough) for a simple, economical, quality instant camera for my employer (after the polaroid film for our old ID camera stopped being made and our supply ran out), I settled on KODAK Smile Instant Print Digital Camera. We do not wish to spend thousands or even hundreds on a new ID system, and this seemed ideal as the size of the prints, ability to take two in photo booth mode, and the ability to delete or select what to print seemed perfect. What didn't click was the fact the Zink paper is heat set and our plastic laminating machine would destroy the prints. We considered the type that use the ribbon cartridge prints, but those seem to jam and break per reading reviews. The current Polaroid style are too thick (our old system had the prints that you peeled away the outside, not the thick prints with chemical pod borders that are not easily trimmable. As much as I would love this camera for personal use, I decided I'd rather get a Zinc printer and use my cell phone with it, so I opted not to buy it off my employer but to return it as it failed to serve the purpose for which it was bought. The claims that the prints are heat resistant are not valid with a thermal laminator. We ended up buying a traditional style Fugi Poloroid type camera which the prints are hard to cut unless you delaminate or peel the clear plastic from the top and black plastic from the bottom (prints will then curl but not a problem once laminated in the plastic ID badge). This is not recommended by some due to the risk of coming in contact with caustic chemicals. The Kodak smile takes clearer pictures than the Fugi, It has a controllable or automatic flash, focus and exposure, many features that I liked. I highly recommend it to people looking for a fun instant camera that do not need the prints to withstand heat.

Great product! Love that you can view the photo before printing it! Has options for flash or no flash, filters, borders, timer and more! The quality of photo is pretty good considering it prints in seconds! Only thing that’s slightly negative is that it only holds 5 photos - however it has space for a Micro SD card. Would recommend!

If you are buying a gift for a young kid who wont care too much about picture quality this is a great camera. My daughter loves being able to print pictures and take any picture she wants. Control is in short supply for 7 year olds right now. It was literally the ONLY thing she specified on her Christmas list, so I am happy with the purchase. I took the advice of other reviewers and ordered a larger SD card and extra film for under the tree. Both were really good advice. the camera functions exactly as advertised in the description, it is reasonably easy to figure out the functions, and works much better in daylight than indoor light.

Like most reviews say, pictures are not a high quality but I think it is more than fine for a 10 year old and their first camera.

Kodak Smile Instant digital camera is fabulous and exciding, I was so excited when I heard that Kodak came out with such a cool device. The smile camera is equipped with a LCD viewfinder fixed focus making it very easy to smile, point, shoot and print! I love the automatic flash feature so when you are in low light it automatically flashes and comes with a 10MP lens, what makes this point and shoot stand out is the editing suite this cool camera offers when you take an image it will save (device is microSD compatible and you can save up to 256gb of memories!) the picture before going into edit mode, there is an assortment of filter to choose from you can choose to add or remove borders on any image. The coolest feature is the FACT that it prints color phots right on the spot with its one touch printing and no ink is needed! Making it easy to share with friends and family (they love the wallet size 2x3 prints, a few are hanging on my refrigerator it is peel off sticky backed photo paper ) the Kodak 2x3 paper is very economical too.The box included• A camera that takes photos and instantly prints them.• A USB cable that recharges the battery after printing 40 photos• A Kodak Zink photo 5 paper starter pack ( 50 pack is available on Amazon to buy)• A Quick start guide• A limited warranty• 5 Sticker frame boardersOverall the Kodak Smile instant camera is easy to use, has decent picture and print quality, is smudge and waterproof prints making it a very giftable idea for kids, teens and adults, it’s fun convenience and cool looking!!!!
