  • one of, if not my favorite purchases
Color: Red
this camera is now my baby. i've taken it to two different countries, multiple different states, different milestones in my life. it is wonderful!! my only complaint is its battery life being so short. i can typically get a day's use out of it before it completely dies, however, that is not the most efficient when traveling. to combat this problem, i also bought a pack of rechargeable batteries and those seem to work just fine. they die just as quickly, however im not constantly buying batteries. i have yet to try the camera underwater, so i can't attest to that, however i dont doubt its durability to be waterproof. all in all, if you are looking for a digital camera just for fun, this is definitely the best option. it's affordable, easy to travel with, and is perfect for anyone. ... show more

  • Price is tempting for a first time kids camera but DO NOT purchase!
Color: Teal
Haven't even gotten a chance to use this camera because we've run into all the issues everyone else has reviewed it poorly for. Instructions are minimal at best. We had the 'stuck on "Welcome" screen' issue but somehow my husband fixed that issue. There is no warning that you need just a plain SD card and not what every other seller is selling online (SDXC etc.) We went through two different sets of Micro SD cards until we realized that was a thing. Additionally buttons are not well labeled/easily readable and it is difficult to get the hang of how to use them to navigate the camera menu. There is a trouble shooting print out that comes with the camera but none mentioned how to fix the issues we were having. Instructions briefly mention you might need to download new firmware but does not give specifics of how to do that. That and it mentions you might need to format your card but if you're having issues with the card in the first place you can't get to the menu to preform the format. Among other things, the screen is grainy and looks like it already beat up but it hasn't even made it out the door to summer camp with our 8 year old. I do not recommend buying this camera. You get what you pay for. Straight from China piece of junk made of poor quality and sub par functionality. I returned this and bought a higher price point camera asap. ... show more

  • Surprisingly lightweight
Color: Blue
So this camera is above all else incredibly lightweight, almost feeling like a toy. It needs two AAA batteries to work and a Micro SD card, neither are included in the kit. Granted, this does have its pros and cons as rechargeable batteries for cameras can be very specific and costly if you want backups, but any AAA batteries will work for this, just make sure you have them on hand. For stuff like this I tend to buy rechargeable batteries so I essentially have exactly what I need just in a different form to keep this powered up. In terms of picture quality, it ranges from low quality, about 2m up to 16m, depending on your preferences and storage space for your device. The interface is fine, you'll get used to it eventually if this is your first time using a Polaroid or digital camera. Not exactly intuitive but, again, it will just take a couple uses to get in the groove of using this quickly. Initial setup was simple enough to figure out in terms of setting up my language and time/date. There's a function to automatically send photos to a social media account of your choice, do I haven't really mess with that too much. I got this as a gift from my mother for upcoming trips and cruises on the horizon. The strap included wraps around tightly and gives a good grip around your wrist in case of sudden drops or going over Bridges and you do not want to risk the camera falling away. The waterproof casing is something I have yet to fully test but it is noticeable mostly around the battery port which is pretty tricky to open, at least with one hand, and has a Tight Seal around to protect the battery and memory card so do use a bit of force when pushing this open. The data cable is fine, pretty standard USB type a cable for transferring photos back and forth between computers and the camera itself. The color is extremely accurate for the product, a very distinctive vibrant blue, and the matching silicone case is the same general color but provides a stronger grip all around the camera to make this easy to use for beginners or Pros alike. ... show more

  • Battery sucks
Color: Teal
For the past 6 months, I have been buying/returning camera after camera looking for the perfect point and shoot to take everywhere with me and so far this is the closest I've come to what I've been looking for. I did not try the waterproof-ness but overall I LOVE this camera. I didn't really care about the quality because to me, that's what makes it even more fun. My ONLY complaint about this camera is the battery life. I would charge it over night and it would let me take one picture and then it would say low battery and shut off but not completely die. So I would have to turn it on take a new picture really really fast before it shut off again. The pictures I did get were great. If it weren't for the battery issues, I wouldn't have returned this camera but my search still continues for the perfect point and shoot. ... show more
