"The Z2300 is still bulkier than the slim digital cameras we're used to, and the print quality isn't excellent"

And it's 2" x 3" prints. And it's $160. But you can "easily upload images to any social media platform" (making the print feature meaningless)

I don't get it... and I'm really trying. I have 1000 ways to make a snapshot look retro, and my phone camera works well in that way. I just can't see what this brings.

Unless Instagram can deliver a print immediately upon upload, that is what this brings.

10 megapixel photos thru a pinhole lens? Yea, right.

This is actually mis-labeled. it's not a camera that prints. It's a handheld, portable printer that, like phones and tablets these days, has a built-in camera.

It's a printer with a camera.

It's a printer with a camera. That is what's different.
