    The printer connects with your phone either through NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth or USB. The best thing about this printer is that it uses the 'Zink Photo Paper'. This is a special paper that embeds ink in the paper itself and the photos printed using the paper are Smudge-proof, water resistant, tear-resistant.

    LG offers a dedicated App on both iOS and Android platforms called 'Pocket Photo App' that lets you manage all your printing job effortlessly. You can quickly create QR codes as well. We've a video that shows the device in action.

    This is an awesome gadget, Very Pocket compatible.
    But what about the additional cost of ink refilling & Zink photo paper, which will be very costly.

    I was just reading about this LG Pocket Photo Printer
    LG Pocket Photo uses ZINK or zero ink technology. Users get colourful ZINK sheets (2x3 inch) with the device. These ZINK sheets themselves carry colors! Therefore, this device needs no ink.
    The printer simply heats the dye in the sheets to reproduce colours and deliver prints. These sheets can be easily loaded by opening the device’s back flap.

    I checked the price too. It says - an additional pack of 30 ZINK sheets costs Rs 1,099, so the cost per print is about Rs. 37.

    @#-Link-Snipped-# & @#-Link-Snipped-# I hope your question is answered.
    Answering my own question: Depending on the colours in the image, prints take up to 40-50 seconds.
