Overall, this is a quirky yet intriguing little device, and we're not sure how many people would find its unique combination of features useful. There's a built-in flash, and a self-timer, and you can shoot as close as 10cm from your subject. Meanwhile, the camera itself sports a 28mm f/2, has a 4.9MP sensor, and lets you store up to 45 images internally, or more if you add a microSD card. Images from your iPhone can be moved, rotated, and zoomed in/out before printing, although you don't get any other editing features. Note that they're the same tiny size (1.8 x 2.4in) as the Fujifilm Instax Mini Link, number 5 on our list. The Mini LiPlay prints photos in 12 seconds, and you can print 100 photos on a single charge. So you really do have the best of all worlds. You can also control the camera via your iPhone if you need to do some remote shooting. And of course, you can connect it to your iPhone and print photos from there as well.

However, it's better than that, because being digital, you can review your shot on screen first, before choosing to print it out. Missing the old Polaroid cameras of the 1970s? The Fujifilm Instax Mini LiPlay does the same trick of combining an instant camera and portable printer in one.
