Build & Quality

This device is Bluetooth or WiFi agnostic, which means you can connect your handset to the USB plug-in slot of the Polaroid case. At the moment, only one sheet of paper can fit in the case that takes around 50 seconds to print a single photo. Its developers are also trying to make the Prynt device more resourceful, by aiding it to hold around 30 sheets of heat-activated ink-paper.
When you snap a picture with the Prynt app, it captures a video of the moments before and after you took the picture. You’ll get your print-out, but showing that picture to the Prynt app will also bring up the short video, allowing you to better re-live the moment. Now that is really cool.

Pryant will be compatible with any smartphone that sports a 4.x-inch screen and there is an adaptor in the works for the bigger phones like the Apple’s  iPhone 6 Plus and Galaxy Note series.
