Customer Ratings & Reviews

This camera is surprisingly crafty with good pictures and fun to use. It I very simple and user friendly with a bit of nostalgia for the older folk, but still crafty and fun for the young ones. I was surprised at the quality of photos printed directly after taking a photo and was fun to peel and stick the photos on folders and devices. My daughter loves the ability to take photos and stick them on her laptop and school folders. We took a selfie with the selfie light and mirror on the camera. It took some getting used to because the mirror is kind of difficult to see as it surrounds the eye of the lense, but it does work and is very clear with the included light. The camera comes included with 10 paper/sticker film that are easy to load. You can only load 10 at a time and I do wish more were included as they go very fast when you are having fun. You can also print photos from your phone with the included downloadable app and use different filters. Although that is crafty, the photos are a bit small to add too much clip art and filters and still look good. Overall, a great product that the kids will love.

Horrible image quality no matter what I tried. Also, could not connect it to my phone. Very disappointing.

I’m actually doing this for the points. But all in all, good product

Dissatisfied. Only printed pics. Unable to see image before shot.

Made well. Works great! Perfect for my 12 yr old granddaughter.

Bought the Ivy CLIQ+2 for my granddaughter's 10th birthday, she absolutely loved it!

Works great does everything it says it will do and more.

Works better with ios unfortunately i have an android

ID rather have a throw away camera instead. I guess its good for a beginner. Lens Cant be adjusted. You have to be close up on the object your taking a picture of in order to come out clear.

My son loves his new Cliq+2 camera. He takes it everywhere and has fun taking pictures of everybody.

It’s ok. We were thinking it was more of a digital camera with printing as an option

The picture is too small and the pixels are not visible.

There are a slew of small photo printers out there, and while they’re fun to use, they obviously require a smartphone. This Canon Ivy Cliq takes the photos and prints directly (think Polaroid). The main difference between the Ivy Cliq and a dedicated Canon printer is editing options. Now to be clear, you can connect the Ivy Cliq to your phone and edit pictures, but it defeats the purpose of having an all in one option (IMHO). Plus, if you’re going to go through that much trouble, you’re better off using the better camera built in your phone. If you wanted to edit a photo (i.e. filters, text, stickers) I would recommend a dedicated Canon printer (like the Selphy). But there is convenience to just having the camera and printer in one compact device. The package includes the camera and a micro-USB charging cable (why can’t everyone get on the USB-C train?) and a pack of 10 photo paper. The camera didn’t take long to charge up and it’s incredibly easy to use. Loading the paper is pretty straightforward, you open up the back and slide the paper in. You’ll have to take a “photo” to eject the cover sheet. From there, you’re good to go. On the camera itself, you have an option for landscape and person photos. I didn’t find much difference between the two. It does have an option for “vivid” quality and I found the colors to pop more, so I generally use it. You can also take B&W photos with a quick switch in the settings on the back. On the front of the camera is a selfie ring, with a concave mirror that is used for taking selfies. I found it pretty easy to line up your selfies holding the camera out in front of you. In other words, I wasn’t worried about not getting a good shot. I found the printing quality to be hit and miss. Much of my indoor photos were washed out and muted, but shots taken outside in the sun looked great. As true with virtually every camera, the more lighting, the better the shot. One of the big downsides to ANY small photo printer is the cost of paper. It’s $10 for 20 sheets, so it’s basically 50 cents a pop. Now, in today’s world, we’re used to taking as many photos as we want. But with the Canon Ivy Cliq, it forces you to think about what you’re taking a photo of. I find this to be useful, as it forced me to only take necessary photos. But it’s tough with kids, as they don’t always look at the camera and sometimes I got a blurry shot or a picture of a kid not looking at me. Though, in the right context those can be good photos too. Another downside is the app. I mentioned before, if you wanted to edit the photos and add text or icons, I would get a standalone printer. But Canon seemingly has a different app for everything which can be confusing. The app itself is pretty intuitive (although it looks outdated) and has enough editing options, but I wish it had more. But it is fun to use these photos as stickers and make scrapbooks. It’s much easier to make a fun scrapbook when you can print the photos out on demand, vs. ordering them or going to pick up prints from the store. And it’s fun to take photos with friends and share them on the spot. In the end, if you are one who likes to take fun spontaneous pictures and use them for crafts or scrapbooks of memories, this is a fun camera/printer. It’s easy to use, surprisingly slim and is easy to carry around. Just don’t expect world class print quality and be prepared to stock up on paper.

did not work as expected. i would not recamend this

No me gusta la calidad de las fotos se tornan amarillistas o azules y salen oscuras

Never would print very disappointing. Does not work buyer beware

Not very impressed. It broke easy with in the first 3 days. I wasted my money

poor quality,i thought this would be nice. It looks cheap and prints cheap.

Quality is nooot good. It’s just not good enough to compete with Polaroid.

WORST CAMERA EVEE. Do not waste your money. Every picture comes out blurry.
