New: Polaroid Now+ Gen 3 Reviews

May 11, 2025 By Dan Finnen

I started out this year working on a review of the Polaroid Now Gen 2, which I put on hold when the Gen 3 was suddenly released. And sure enough, in the middle of the Gen 3 review, Polaroid surprised me with the Polaroid Flip, which actually directly addresses nearly every issue I had with the Now. However, the Polaroid Now is still likely going to be the entry camera for the time being, so I went ahead and finished my review anyway. I’m working on testing the Flip right now – and spoiler alert it is shaping up to be a much better camera than any of the Polaroid Nows. So if you’re looking for a brand new Polaroid camera right now, go ahead and get the Flip before you consider the Now. What a confusing mess of words.

Check out the full written review and the video review above.
