Announced in October 2025, the Instax Mini LiPlay+ is the latest hybrid instant film and digital camera from Fujifilm.
It pairs a digital camera with a built-in Instax Mini printer and also introduces a selfie camera for the first time ever on an Instax camera.
You can also use the LiPlay+ to print images from your smartphone (or indeed any image file found on your smartphone) and capture and share 3-second audio clips using a QR code printed onto the image.
The new instax Sound Album feature turns adventures into custom animated videos with sound, vibrant backgrounds and standout music.
The new layered photo mode takes advantage of the front and rear cameras so images appear with one in the foreground and one in the background.
Inside the instax LiPlay+ is a 1/5-inch CMOS sensor which is capable of producing digital images of 2560x1920 pixels (4.9 megapixels).
The main front-facing lens offer a 28mm equivalent focal length with an f/2 aperture while the rear-facing selfie camera offers a slightly wider 23mm focal length and an f/2.2 aperture.
Using the LiPlay+ is pretty much entirely automatic for both exposure and flash control, with a number of different effects which can be utilised for those who would like to get a bit creative and either 2 or 10 second timers.
The camera uses Instax Mini film which is available to buy in a few different varieties. The new instax mini Soft Glitter instant film with gold accents and soothing hues was released at the same time as the LiPlay+ priced at £8.99.
The free, downloadable instax mini LiPlay+ smartphone app allows you to capture images remotely via a Bluetooth connection and print photos from a connected smartphone, as well as add frames, sticker icons or overlay text.
The Fujifilm Instax Mini LiPlay+ camera is is available in two different colours - Sand Beige and Midnight Blue - priced at £189.99 / $234.95 in the UK and USA respectively. A matching case is available for £29.99.
