The photography company might be on the brink of fading into nostalgic memories, but the [Polaroid](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polaroid-flip1) [C3](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Agentic-industrial-operations) camera shows that they won't go away so quietly. Or perhaps at all. It takes on the form of a tiny cube that could be deemed the hipster version of a [GoPro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hero-action-camera). A more stylish alternative, the Polaroid C3 camera could also be likened to a pair of dice, that's how small it is.

Yet for its diminutive size, the Polaroid C3 camera is chock full of features. It boasts a 120-degree wide-angle lens capable of capturing HD video and still images. It's waterproof up to two meters, has a microphone and an LED light, not to mention an SD card slot.
