Review on πŸ–¨οΈ Black HP Sprocket Portable Photo Printer - Print Social Media Photos on Sticky-Backed 2x3" Paper (X7N08A) by Edwin Black

Revainrating 5 out of 5

More of a Polaroid camera than a photo printer.

Bought this as a Christmas present and it's fantastic. If you want absolutely accurate color reproduction, this printer is probably not for you. Regardless of which brand you choose, there is not a very high probability that the prints will be completely correct. These prints look more like pictures from a polaroid camera but when you look at the quality they are amazing. All three of these original shots were taken with my Canon Rebel T6i and then edited in ColorStory before being printed on Sprocket. I wouldn't recommend editing photos in the app as the quality may not be that good. Invest in a good photo editing app like Aviary, Lightroom or another app that doesn't affect the quality of your photos. In addition, printers usually print at 300 dpi. If you use Photoshop, change the resolution of your photos to match the resolution that will be printed. Due to the size of the photo, you will never need to crop any part of the image to fit the print. Unless you want to print a square photo or a previously cropped photo. Overall, this is a great printer, but if you're looking for 100% accurate color reproduction, you might want to invest in an inkjet printer.

Pros
  • Printers and scanners
Cons
