Review: HP Sprocket Printer

Print Your Memories

These days, people are using their smartphones to capture their memories and upload them onto social media. But what if you wanted to print them? That is where the HP Sprocket Printer comes in handy. Easily the size of your palm, you can now bring the Sprocket with you anywhere without it being a burden. Connecting it to your smartphone is also easy with the Sprocket app. Just connect via Bluetooth and you’re good to go.

Please ignore the shameless self promotion of my dogs, I’m sad like that

In No Time at All

What’s great about the Sprocket is the speed of which it prints your pictures. Although it only prints them in 2×3 inches, you can easily peel off the back and stick the pictures anywhere. The colour reproduction on the Sprocket is pretty average though so its best to not get the same amount of quality as your smartphoneYou also get 20 sheets of paper per pack at only RM40, which doesn’t sound all that bad. Through the Sprocket app, you can even customise and edit your pictures to give them some added flair and creativity. You can even take pictures you’ve already uploaded onto Facebook and Instagram and print them instantly.

A Worthy Investment?

One downside of the Sprocket is its price tag. At RM599, not everyone will be convinced it will be a worthy investment. Sure, there will be people who will want to print their pictures from their smartphone instantly, and there will be some who would rather just have said pictures uploaded onto their Instagram and Facebook accounts. For me personally, it is a rather steep price to pay for a printer. But, if you’re into having a physical copy of your pictures and being able to let your creative juices flow through the app, it is a great new way of keeping your memories.

Verdict:

If you can get past its price tag, the HP Sprocket is a great and reliable portable printer to have with you at all times.
