Here we test four of the best 4×6 home photo printers on the market for print quality, color accuracy, ease of use, and aesthetics. We also used the Android app, iPhone app, and any additional options the printer offers for printing (SD card, direct print, computer print, etc.) to see if there was any drop-off in quality. See the surprising results with these printers here!

Ok cool I am ordering the Liene to compare it with the Canon Selphy. Thank you!!
canÄt you also print with all the others right from pc with wifi?
это уже второе видео где хвалят liene
which cartridges are interchangeable?
Hi! I can’t thank you enough for this review! I also watched your videos on YouTube. I have been agonizing about which color printer to buy and this gave me all the answers I needed. I did purchase through your link 🙂
You are so sweet, thanks for making this video, I'm getting one for my niece that loves to make photo albums
6:27 is it the light or does the canon turn blacks into grey?
An you print out different sizes like smaller sizes or do they all come out one size
Great video Alison, i would like to know if the Pick you choose as top, does it have the capabilities to print smaller sizes other than 4×6? can it print collages? i have a 14 year granddaughter that i want to get one for. Please reply as soon as able so i can order her one. ty in advance!
Thanks for making this great video! Did you happen to track the cost per print for these printers?
Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. Great job.
Is it's only 4×6, or can you do a smaller one, too?
Thank you for a great review. I've gone with the Canon CP-1500, it meets all my requirements. Show stopper for me: Canon has been around for a long time, and odds are greater of them being around in 2 years….. I have many great products in my tech museum closet that are orphans today…
Thank you I got the canon yesterday
7:02 looking at the photos.. yeah polaroid is out lol, Liene is more neutral/natural, Kodak adds more contrast which isn't bad but can over compensate on certain scenes, and the Canon is close to the Liene but Canon keeps adding more tint which I might not be a fan of for every photo
awesome video! I was looking for something exactly like this, keep up the good work!
Great review – I’d consider the Liene, but it would help to get per-print price comparison including cost (and availability) of the replacement ink… eg. Canon is a well established brand with ink sold everywhere .
Thank you Alison for this nice review. I just got back into my photography, and having fun with my Canon R6. I was leaning towards the Canon, but have heard many great reviews for the Liene too. I think I will go with the Liene!
The Selphy paper isn't a true 6×4 dimension. It's called Japanese postcard size or Hagaki and is slightly smaller in width and length to what we know as 4R. It won't fit snugly in a 4R photo album or frame.
Thank you for your commitment to printers lmao was looking for this without having to buy 4 of them
I absolutely love my Canon one it’s amazing.
can you put a link to the generic paper you used?
I like the price of ink and paper from Canon I bought one and like it a lot
Once the tear tabs are removed are any of them exactly 6 inches? I have a canon selphy and they are not quite 6 inches so when I put 2 pictures side by side it doesn't go across my 12 inch scrapbook page, I'm always a little short. 🙁 If I could find one that was exactly 6 inches once tabs removed I would definitely buy something different.
Can you print from the camera to the printer via wifi, Bluetooth or cable on the canon or the liene?
You should show the sample picture while doing the review
Perfect video. Was looking for a video like this and saw yours. Great job.
Didn’t even know the brand Liene, never heard of it, was just looking for a photo printer and your review is absolutely perfect! On top of that you’re a photographer so I’m taking your recommendation and buying it right now! Great Xmas present for my girls! Thank you so much!
thanks very much for this! ive been looking for a photo printer myself.
Thank you for this video!! These are exactly the printers I’ve been looking at, and I’ve been on the fence about which one to buy
What a great review! Thank you.
Unrelated note: the background looks like the Francine’s painting from American dad, iykyk 😂
Great review thank you! Can you name which generic one is compatible with the hi print?
Great review/comparison! I'd be curious to know the different pricing of the paper/cartridges for each but we all have access to Google. 😉
