If you're that someone who loves the look of vintage, hipster and old-school photos, the FujiFilm Instax is the ideal image printer for you.
The Instax is a stylishly compact, portable printer that hooks up wirelessly to you smartphone. After you take a super hipster-looking photo you know would look great with a Polaroid border, you can open it up in the InstaxSHARE app, crop it and send it to the Instax for instantaneous printing.
