The KODAK Mini 2 has been announced by the brand as the latest instant printer that will provide users with the ability to create physical keepsakes wherever they are thanks to the mobile design of the unit.
Boasting Bluetooth and NFC connectivity, the printer is able to be accessed via an accompanying smartphone app for anyone to use the peripheral to print credit card-sized photos. Users can take advantage of a variety of personalization settings within the app to add filters, stickers and templates for personalized printed images.
The KODAK Mini 2 instant printer is set to retail for $99 and acknowledges the return of the physical photo despite the shift towards social media sharing. As consumers accept social network photo sharing as commonplace, we'll likely continue to see more users crave physical keepsakes like printed pictures.
