The Good: Fast print speeds; allows for greater control over image settings; optional battery pack available; able to crop images on printer; can save images to external storage devices; adjustable LCD.

The Bad: Photo quality could be improved; frames are limited mostly to Disney-themed ones.

The Bottom Line: With its range of features, decent print quality, and fast print speeds, the Epson PictureMate Snap is a solid choice for snapshooters who want an at-home photo lab.
