A selfie in the hand is worth two on Instagram. Fujifilm's Instax Share SP-1 printer enables immediate and direct mobile printing. You want your mug on the break room fridge/dangling from your rearview mirror/sent over to Eliza Dushku with a pina colada, and you want it there now? Serving as its own Wi-Fi hotspot, the pocket-sized Instax Share can instantly spit out 2" x 3" photos from any iOS or Android smartphone or tablet.
In conjunction with an Instax Share app, the printer requires just a few taps to create hard copies of memorable moments, and possibly some you'll later wish to forget. The app also includes editing functions and templates, plus can print real time information on photos, including date and time, location, and weather conditions.
The Fujifilm required for Instax Share use is Instax Mini Instant Film, which snaps at ISO 800 speed. The printer also takes 2 x CR2 lithium batteries, good for around 100 prints per pair.
The Fujifilm Instax mobile printer is a top Dude Gift for a Teen pick.
