I love gadgets and as an avid photographer one gadget recently caught my eye, the HP Sprocket. I’m so glad I didn’t buy one straight away though, as now HP have released a great Limited Edition Sprocket Bundle (Rose Gold Gift Set), which includes a rose gold carry bag, pretty photo album, customisable skin, 10 photo papers (with sticky backs) and the white sprocket.
The HP Sprocket Photo Printer Bundle* is currently on offer in Amazon and with Black Friday around the corner, it would make a great Christmas buy. The gift box is just £119.99 with free delivery and it’s a great option over buying all the items separately.
Before we left the UK, we started a new family tradition. We began taking photos of our friends and special places back home and when we first arrived in our new house we dedicated two walls to be our ‘memory walls’. One’s in Ava’s room and one’s in the kitchen. They are filled with lots of happy memories with our friends. If we’re ever missing our friends we can look at our walls and feel a bit more connected. Ever since our first day in France we have continued to make new memories and put them on the our walls. The first time we took the dogs to the lake, Ava’s first swim in the lake and many more moments are making their way onto the walls.
However, as a busy mum I often forget to print out our images and memories miss their place on the wall. I was so happy when HP offered to send us a Sprocket Bundle to put to the test.
This will also be our first Christmas in France and we don’t know if any of our family will be able to pop across. So having the HP Sprocket with us means we will be able to print precious snaps right away and be able to send our family home with printed memories if anyone manages to make it over to see us.
I love the fact that it’s pocket size making the Sprocket easily portable. You can print from your favourite social media or direct from your camera roll. The photo paper has a peel-able back turning the photos into stickers, which the kids will love! Ava has already been eyeing up mine and although she’s a little young she loves it. Children love the immediacy of having their images printed there and then. She thinks it’s wonderful that we can take a picture and a few minutes later she can be holding it in her hand and adding it to her memory wall. It’s a wonderful way to stay present and follow through with a memory. You cn obviously leave the backing on and use them as normal photos.
Ava also loves that you can use the app to customise the pictures we take with text, frames and filters. You can also personalise the Sprocket itself by using the free voucher to purchase a skin of your choice.
The Sprocket weighs around 6 ounces (170 grams) meaning it won’t weigh your handbag down on days out! It’s easy to load the Zink Technology paper that comes with the printer (10 sheets 2 x 3-inch (5 x 7.6 cm).
It was a breeze to set up of this printer and load the paper. The simple App is also easy to use, meaning it’s a fab choice for younger members of the family.
There are so many icons and graphics you can add to your images.
The Limited Edition HP Sprocket Bundle would make a great Christmas present, especially for teens. Do you print your pictures often enough?
Disclosure: I was given this HP Sprocket Bundle in return for sharing my honest review.
