Canon SELPHY Square Qx10 Mobile Photo Printer is cable-free (which pleases our aesthetics) and portable, and allows you to print and share your smartphone snaps quickly, saving you the hassle of printing them all online and waiting for them to arrive in the post, or paying to have them printed in a photo shop.

It’s small size means it won’t take up an enormous amount of room, either, and it prints 68 x 68mm photos, the perfect size for plenty of small photo frames. You can even print them as stickers, and with a thicker writing edge to personalise your pictures too.

The reviews of the Canon SELPHY are brilliant, and make a case for your household needing one of these handy pieces of tech.

Very easy to print photos from your phone or any mobile device. Definitely recommended!” remarked one happy shopper.

Another said they “love this”. “It's really simple to connect to your phone and print moments off. Nothing like having the physical tangible thing sometimes and the quality is really good - the best I think in the market. Go buy. You won't be disappointed.”

Others dubbed it “excellent” and another said they’d gifted it to two friends, it’s that good.
