Chris, if I can make a recommendation, as you're talking about the backside of the camera, you should have an Over-The-Shoulder shot so we can see what exactly it is that you're talking about

Thank you for the great review! I've owned the Kodak Mini 2 Retro, which is a 2x3 printer and its GREAT. I just purchased the Mini Shot 3 Retro after watching your review. Here is why this product is superior compared to other products in the market.
1. The film is extremely cheaper verses Instax and Polaroids. I think Kodak's is 30-40 cents per photo and it's a $1 a photo for Instax and Polaroid. This reason itself should be a reason why the Kodak 4PASS products beat any instant printers in the market.
2. The photo quality is incomparable with Instax or any Zink products. I believe it's also water resistant?
3. Unlike other analog products like Instax, the Kodak dye-sub camera printers are 2-in-1, meaning that it can also be connected with a phone to print photos that way.
Yes, it does take 50 seconds or so to print a photo, but it takes an Instax or Polaroid photos several minutes to fully develop, so.. the Kodak 4PASS products are actually developing photos much faster.

Wow, was so surprised when I saw all the photos of Vancouver. Awesome to see creators where you are from.

The quality of the review… *chef’s kiss*

Ima be completely honest I just want a portable printer lol i do not mind taking the photo with my phone and just printing it. I’ve seen a comparison of this Kodak with other brands and I feel that it was the best printing quality for what it is. The colors are more accurate. I think I might buy it :)

I think the fact that it doesn't store photos kind of hurts it because it's not quick enough for instant photography. I feel like it puts this camera in a weird spot. Especially considering they're already a ton of bluetooth photo printers and instant cameras. I don't see anything that really sets it apart from anything I already have, polaroid hi print and instax instant cameras.

Good review of this camera. In Europe it’s also available as the Agfaphoto Realpix. Kodak has also a minishot that uses smaller paper and these products are also available as a printer only. These dye sublimation devices give better quality photos when compared to Zink based products. I can see a market for these types of devices. These are digital, no problem, but it would have been nice when used as a digital instant camera there’s was a saving of the digital file on a memory card, just my two cents.

The quality is awesome from these and for the price I'm sold. I bought the stand alone printer though - I think the camera version is pointless with insane cell phone cameras today.

I'm buying this camera for use during delivery driving. I deliver to auto dealers, and overtime the dealers become complacent to the fact that a 60' big rig comes into their dealer overnight and they leave cars or things laying around that sometimes prevent delivery. This camera would allow me to take a snapshot of a problem and then leave the image with the dealer.

I guess it just may be me but it seems like you put a lot of stock in the fact of it not being a camera you could bring out and do a lot of quick street like shooting. While I don't disagree with that sentimate it, I don't think that should be as a huge almost a dealbreaker. We got one for Christmas and when you use it for fun occasions settings like parties, holidays, family gathering quick shots of some fun stuff this is probably one of the best camera's in it's class. We have the fuji instax mini and those pictures stink, I'm sorry I know it's an internet reviewers darling but the quality is such crap we found the quality of the kodak to leaps ahead and love the bluetooth printer feature of this as well. Seems like you really liked it but just couldn't get past it not being a quick point and shoot. which is fair but use it within it's situations it was made for, this is wonderful just MHO

[Theisnew]

your normal eyes are so much nicer than the scary big eye balls you have on most of your latest thumbnails. New to the channel and subscribed because I watched one of your older videos and loved it and then when I looked at the rest of your channel & realized I have seen other videos of yours in my feed but didn't click on it because all I saw was the big weird eyeballs lol. Nonetheless here I am lol

[DaarkCloud]

There's the handsome guy!
The printing process itself doesn't like heat or cold. I have the stand alone printer and it's super sensitive to temperature.

[DevilTyphoon]

The good thing is that kodak cartridge cost much less than instax fuji.

[kellyblad]

I was waiting for this review!!! So thank you so much 😊
I like the design but the features seem quite limited even if my first concern is to get a square format printer. Do you think it’s a good printer or should i get the instax share sp3 instead? Or maybe the canon selphy square QX10 🤔 i can’t decide….

[levilina]

Wow chris. I have been seeing 4 videos expecting you to have in the 200k subs. Good job!

[galacticellars]

Good stuff! I haven’t really been inclined to buy a Kodak instant, this looks fun tho!

[rubengomez]

When you were suddenly in front of Who Song and Larry’s I realized you’re in Vancouver WA!! I grew up there! Hello from Minneapolis!! Great review

[MrSchillergaming]

Been watching your videos for a while and I honestly thought you had over a million subscribers due to your production quality

[jasonmccarrick]

I'm just another Jason and the only thing that invited me to this video is that we have the same hat and now I'm watching.
