The Escura InstantSnap camera looks like an instant photo.

Arriving sometime in April 2025 for around $45, the InstantSnap features a fun design resembling a photo that just popped out of a Polaroid camera. Inside its white frame is a transparent viewfinder with framing guides, but there’s no screen, and images and videos are saved to a microSD card.

Even if you’re into a lo-fi aesthetic, the 1.3-megapixel InstantSnap’s image quality might disappoint, based on sample images the company shared with Digital Camera World.

<em>There’s a shutter button hidden on the front of the InstantSnap camera below the viewfinder, and a slider switch on the side for selecting video or photo modes.</em>
<em>The camera has a fixed focus and is locked to a 1/125 shutter speed so you’ll potentially want to stick to taking photos with lots of light to get usable shots.</em>
