instax mini LiPlay™ gets a bright new refresh just in time for festival season

As you check off the final items on your festival packing list, Fujifilm have swept in with an essential last-minute addition – as they unveil the acclaimed instax mini LiPlay™'s fresh new upgrade...

An instant camera that also acts as a nifty smartphone printer, the instax mini LiPlay™ has already proved a major hit. Now, however, it's being launched in three trendy new colours – Matcha Green, Misty White and Deep Bronze – with unique textures to match each. The neutral tones hit all the right aesthetic notes – and will look great with any festival outfit...

You'll also still be able to capture a sound memo when taking a photo, which is then printed out with a QR code, allowing you to scan and listen back. It's a feature that festival-goers will particularly enjoy, in the midst of the music, laughter and wonderful chaos.

You can be sure that the camera's selfie mirror will be put to good use at a festival too – as will its Remote Shooting function, which allows you to control the camera through your smartphone via Bluetooth, and capture the perfect group photo.

There are other important changes to the instax mini LiPlay™ in this upgrade – including the handy addition of a USB Type-C slot for charging.

Plus, the firmware update process – which previously required downloading from a website and saving to a micro-SD – has been simplified, and updates can now be done through the dedicated app.

For the creatives out there, the camera comes with 13 design frame and six filters, with much more available through the app.

And guess what? You can win one of these beauties in a special copetition on the Hot Pres Instagram feed. Here's the link:
