Fujifilm Launches Its Instax Mini Evo Hybrid Instant Camera
A new hybrid instant camera that includes all the amazing features of a hybrid instant camera, a classic analog look, and a little more!
The Instax Mini Evo is the newest hybrid Instax camera launched by Fujifilm. It’s a flagship model of the Instax series of instant cameras that features more advanced functions, operability, print quality, and apps than ever before.
Like other hybrid instant cameras, users can review photos captured on the device via the LCD monitor on the rear panel of the camera and select images they want to print.
The new Instax Mini Evo offers versatile shooting effects that can deliver up to 100 different combinations of effects for Instax shots.
Design & Specifications
The Instax Mini Evo comes with ten lens effects including “Soft Focus” and “Light Leak” as well as ten film effects including “Monochrome” and “Retro”. These two types of effects can be combined freely to create up to 100 different shooting effects, giving users the ability to fully express their emotions.

The new model, designed with a classical and luxurious touch, is the first Instax camera equipped with a print lever, lens dial and film dial allowing users to choose a plethora of shooting effects and print. These dials are designed with attention to the finest details including operation sound offering the joy of creating analog photographic arts to the users.

A ring around the 28mm (equivalent) F2.0 lens can be twisted to switch between ten lens effects: Normal, Vignette, Soft Focus, Blur, Fisheye, Color Shift, Light Leak, Mirror, Double Exposure, and Half-Frame.
Behind the lens is a 1/5-inch CMOS sensor with a resolution of 4.9 MP (or about 2560 x 1920 pixels), ISO range from 100 to 1600, and shutter speed range from 1/4s to 1/8000s.
The camera weighs 285 grams and measures 87 x 122.9 x 36 mm, so it’s approximately twice as heavy as the iPhone 12 or the iPhone 13 Mini.
High-Quality Prints From Any Device
The Instax Mini Evo’s resolution of exposure has been doubled compared to the previous models to achieve greater print quality. The camera offers the “Instax-Rich” mode for rich colors in addition to the “Instax-Natural” mode for softer touch characteristic of Instax prints.

The Mini Evo also works as an Instax printer, meaning you can print out pictures from your smartphone wirelessly using a dedicated app.
The app features the “Direct Print” function for using the Instax Mini Evo as a smartphone printer, “Remote” function for remotely shooting pictures away from the camera, and the “Transferred Images” function for saving a photo (shot with the Instax Mini Evo) in a smartphone as an image decorated with an Instax frame so you can share them as digital Instax snaps.

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 9 And Ultra 2 Specs Leak Ahead Of Unpacked
An 800mAh Ultra 2 battery and a switch from Exynos to Qualcomm silicon headline the expected changes for Samsung’s next smartwatches.
Samsung’s next smartwatches have little left to hide. A new leak reported by Android Authority has surfaced most of the remaining details about the Galaxy Watch 9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, just over a week before the company’s Galaxy Unpacked event on July 22.
The biggest change is an invisible one: Samsung is expected to drop its own Exynos W1000 chip in favor of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Wear Elite SW6100, a chipset unveiled only this year, according to the outlet.
Battery capacity looks like the other notable upgrade. Citing a report from Winfuture, Android Authority says the Watch Ultra 2 could reach 800mAh, well beyond the 590mAh cell in the current Watch Ultra. The 44mm Watch 9 reportedly gets a 445mAh cell — the same capacity as last year’s Watch 8 Classic — while the 40mm model stays at 325mAh.
The 40mm Watch 9 will reportedly feature a 438 x 438-pixel panel, with the 44mm Watch 9 and the Watch Ultra 2 sharing a larger 480 x 480-pixel screen. Samsung leaker Ice Universe has separately claimed the Ultra 2’s display could reach a peak brightness of 5,000 nits. RAM and storage vary by model, topping out at 2GB and 64GB.

The Ultra 2 keeps its titanium case and 100-meter water resistance; the standard Watch 9 remains aluminum, rated to 5 ATM. All models are said to include Bluetooth 6.0, NFC, and dual-band WiFi, with the usual LTE variants, and ship with One UI 9 Watch running on Wear OS 7.
A separate leak puts the Galaxy Watch 9 at €409 (about $468) for the 40mm Bluetooth model, rising to €489 (about $560) for the 44mm LTE version, with the Watch Ultra 2 LTE at €749 (about $857) — figures Android Authority said were partially corroborated by Winfuture. Confirmation arrives on stage on July 22.
