Polaroid introduces the Hi-Print 3×3, a portable printer that produces 3×3 instant prints directly from a smartphone app. This device stands out with its built-in frame, allowing users to display prints right on the printer itself.
Unique Design and Functionality
The Hi-Print 3×3 features a sleek, all-white design that serves as both a printer and a customizable photo frame. Users select and edit images from their phone’s gallery or camera roll using the free Polaroid app, available for iOS and Android. Prints snap easily into the lift-up frame for instant display.
Unlike traditional instant cameras, this printer offers flexibility to choose any photo, with options to add templates and stickers. It uses special Hi-Print 3×3 paper and rivals products like the Instax Mini Link series.
Pricing and Lineup
Priced at $119.99 in the US and £99.99 in the UK, the Hi-Print 3×3 includes a starter cartridge of 10 sheets. Australia pricing remains to be confirmed.
Polaroid expands its Hi-Print range with this 3×3 model, alongside the compact 2×3 version—ideal for clutch bags—and the larger 4×6 printer.
This hybrid device combines the convenience of portable printing with the charm of a dedicated frame, appealing to fans of instant photography.
