Review on Canon IVY Mini Photo Printer For Smartphones (Slate Gray) - Sticky-Back Prints by Michael Radhakrishnan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Get your prints easily in 1 hour

This is a big disappointment. Print quality is mediocre at best, most colors print poorly, and contrast tones are almost non-existent. Most blues (except royal) look black or white depending on the hue, and red looks like you've toned it down the saturation scale. It takes a good quality photo and turns it into a poorly lit driver's license photo. Not to mention there are no instructions, so the phone must have a QR code reader to even take you to a website to download the app (which doesn't show up when you search Apple search by name). You then have to dig through the app with no help options and nothing written (all random icons) to find instructions on how to charge or use it. And it's missing key details, how should it be connected to a 1 or 2 amp USB socket, or just computers? If you're lucky, it'll print ten reams of paper on a single charge, and then wait another 1-2 hours for it to charge before you can use it again, but only if you notice the little LED light lights up and flashes. Sample and dig around to find out what it means in the app to know it won't print until you charge it again, even if the light was fine before you sent the print job. In fact, it's not worth the convenience, you save money and nerves, by simply walking to the nearest watch store. At least if the quality is bad, you can get a refund. It prints ten packs of paper on a single charge, then wait another 1-2 hours for it to charge before you can use it again, but only if you notice the color of the little LED and the blinking pattern and start digging. to find out what it means in the app to know it won't print until you charge it again, even if the light was fine before you sent the print job.
