Tesco Mobile is to start charging new and recently joining pay-monthly customers to use their mobiles in Europe from 2024. Polaroid are not leaving the instant photo market though as the launch of the Polaroid PoGo brings the concept of instant photos to the 21st century by using the latest Zink (Zero Ink) printing technology to support modern digital cameras. On the side from the power connector is the power button and a couple of tri-colour status LED’s which tell you the print and battery power status. Next to that is the USB 2.0 connector which allows you to connect a compatible digital camera.

I bought this little printer to use with my SMASH book so I could take photos of my everyday life with my phone, print it instantly and SMASH it in my book. It has average image quality but pretty good considering the portability. The only thing I find a little bothersome is that it takes longer than I thought it would to actually make the connection and start printing. But, if you follow the directions and wait patiently it works every time. I really like the product because it is the size I wanted, it was in my price range, and it actually works with little effort. However, for the PoGo to really take off I think the cost of the photo paper has to come down and come down a lot. If Polaroid can get the cost per print down to around 10p per print then I’m sure more people will consider the PoGo.Prints perfectly fine and I love having it. Unfortunately, I can't use the printer unless it's plugged it. It personally doesn't bother me since I only use it at home, but for someone who wants a small portable printer, this isn't for you.

Linking the PoGo to a Bluetooth phone is very straightforward and once we got the phone to do a Bluetooth search, it spotted the Polaroid printer and linked to it without problem. It only takes around four seconds longer to print via Bluetooth than to print over PictBridge.

Anybody who has ever used a Polaroid Instant camera will know how convenient it was to have a picture immediately after taking it to show to your friends or as a record of an event. While it’s still very easy to take instant photos in a social setting, typically with a camera phone, a paper copy is harder, ironically, since the demise of Polaroid’s instant film cameras.

I've never had any other portable printers but if I was comparing it with my big printer obviously that one has better image quality - but I can't carry THAT printer in my bag. Under test, the good news is we’ve found a printer that lives up to its claimed print speed. Polaroid says it takes ‘about a minute’ to produce a print, and we measured it at ‘about a minute’ printing from Bluetooth and via a PictBridge cable from a digital camera. This seems like a good speed, considerably faster than standalone inkjet or dye-sublimation printers, until you remember that the print size is only a quarter of the standard from these other printers. Since it must remain plugged in though, I'm keeping this one at home and have received a new but different brand as a gift in which can be brought along anywhere wirelessly.

Polaroid recently announced that they were to stop production of the instant film used in it’s range of instamatic cameras. When I first heard the news I was surprised that anyone was still using instant film and that they hadn’t stopped years ago. I later learned that there are a lot of business applications where this kind of film is used. MoneySavingExpert.com is part of the MoneySuperMarket Group, but is entirely editorially independent.

The whole process from start to finish takes around 60 seconds. Printing via Bluetooth is a little slower but this is probably down to the connection speed.
