The HP Sprocket Photo Printer offers small and simple camera phone printing

It's not cheap, but HP's Sprocket Photo Printer is an easy way to liberate your shots from your camera phone.

The HP Sprocket is exceptionally easy to use and prints straight from your phone. The image editing tools bring fun to an otherwise ordinary task.

Print quality is average and the cost of replacement paper can add up quickly.

If you can afford its initial and ongoing costs and aren't looking to hang your work in a museum, the HP Sprocket Photo Printer is a simple and enjoyable way to get photos off your phone.

HP Sprocket Photo Printer

The tiny, pocket-size HP Sprocket Photo Printer can produce wallet-size prints from your phone or tablet's photo albums or your social media accounts, but its output quality could be better.

Fast photo printing. Highly portable. Prints from your phone or tablet's photo albums. Easy integration with Facebook, Instagram, and Flickr.

Limited to wallet-size (2-by-3) prints. Can only print from smartphones and tablets via Bluetooth.

If you want to print small snapshots exclusively from your phone or tablet—whether from its photo albums or your social media accounts—the HP Sprocket is a convenient and appealing choice. Very similar in most ways (price, dimensions, speed, print...

HP Sprocket review

The 9-inch HP Sprocket is the smallest of the wallet-size snapshot printers and it's quality is decent too

Smartphone friendly ; Reasonable pricing ; Super compact

Photo quality not the best ; Specialist paper is pricey

The HP Sprocket is a good option for those that want their social media snaps to get the real-world print feel. This is portable, quality is decent and pricing is reasonable.

HP Sprocket Review

Nowadays, more people are using their smartphones to take all their photos. Partly because it is super easy to capture photos and videos with and it's always within arm's reach. In the past few years, there has also been a rise in film photography,...

Compact design ; Easy to use ; Great third-party app integration ; Printer paper is easy to reload

Prints aren’t super high-quality ; Limited to 2 x 3-inch prints

Overall, I really like the Sprocket, it gives people the option to print their smartphone photos without the added bulk of an instant film camera. However, the quality of the prints may not be the greatest even if you took your photos using an iPhone...

HP Sprocket review: A compact, portable photo printer for your smartphone.

No ink refills ; Very easy to use ; Fun app

Variable print quality ; Expensive prints

A fun compact printer that you can take with you anywhere. Pricey prints and mediocre quality only do a little to take away from its charm: it’s a great gift that keeps on giving.
