Amazon Prints vs
Chatbooks Review

We're crazy about printed photos!
We ordered the same 10 photos from Amazon Prints and Chatbooks, scanned them all in, and created this guide just for you.

Amazon Prints (Test: Glossy)
Scan of a printed photo of a appy grandpa smiling in front of a birthday cake. The cake has numbered wax numbers in it on the right, facing the grandpa reading, “94.” The cake is square with white and green frosting with 3 other candles on the left (his right) side of the cake. The old man has a grey, well-manicured beard and is wearing glasses (they’re highly magnified with his eyes slightly enlarged) and smiling bright. He’s holding up one hand in celebration. He’s wearing a multicolored flower lei and a blue shirt. Behind him is a woman with a huge smile, actively laughing, wearing a flowered tank top and a man, in his 30s, also smiling and with a beard wearing a grey long sleeve shirt and green pants. They’re all standing in what appears to be a living room and having a wonderful time.

Scan of a photo: Beautiful icelandic landscape featuring a couple walking towards the right, centered in the photo. She’s leading him and they’re holding hands and she looks back and gazes into his eyes. She’s wearing black pants, leather boots, and a long navy sweater with a red shirt under it. He’s wearing a leather jacket, grey shirt, blue pants, and casual green leather sneakers. There’s stark contrast between the rocky and green mossy area they’re walking on and the hill behind them which has a white, almost-snowy overlay. The hillside is half covered in snow.

When we tested August 2020 August 2020
Summary Amazon is one of the best deals for photo prints, especially for Prime members who get free shipping with no order minimum. Amazon sent our 10 test photos by UPS 2nd Day Air, the quickest delivery in all our tests. However, the quality isn't as good as some of our other tests like Walmart local and Nations. Chatbooks photo prints are nicely packaged and presented on a thick cardstock. However, they're best for square prints from Instagram. For standard 4x6 prints, it's best to explore other photo printing services as Chatbooks doesn’t give you any way to crop your images prior to printing and they're automatically, awkwardly shrunk to fit into the square format. Additionally, even the prints we uploaded as square didn't bleed to the edge; instead a white and uneven matting was added.

Scan of a photo of adults and two kids in a fun portrait. They’re all wearing winter coats. The 
adults are wearing winter hats. On the left is a young, beautiful, brunette woman smiling big, wearing a light brown winter hat with a leather patch. A cute little girl is to her right, they’re all close together, wearing a pink puffy jacket with a white bow in her dirty blonde hair. Next to the girl is a man wearing a blue winter hat and a navy puff jacket, his tongue slightly sticking out and his beard a brown-red. To the man’s right is a boy, a few years older than the girl, wearing a red puffy jacket and a flannel under it, his tongue fully out and his eyes wide. They’re all having a blast.

Two grandparents and they’re grandkids. The grandfather is sitting on a brown, floral lounge chair with the two kids on his lap. The little girl is on his left, as if she’s trying to escape, wearing a red dress and white tights and red bow in her hair. The boy is wearing a red flannel. The grandmother leans into the photo with her hand on the right side of the chair. The grandfather is wearing blue jeans and a red flannel shirt and glasses with a thick black rim. Behind them is a cream colored living room door and to its right is a window. It appears to be around the holidays as there are two sets of blue, ceramic angels sitting on the window as well as a white, wood star. Through the window outside it’s dark outside and there’s a few white holiday lights illuminating a tree. There’s also a tropical fern just to the right of the image and a mirror and what appears to be the photographer in it.

Two happy dog owners and their black lab, all three of them with their tongues out. The happy dog is sandwiched between the two owners, his long tongue mostly pink with a couple black spots. On the left is a man with a short, red beard wearing a NASA baseball cap and large sunglasses; a black frame with magenta lenses. He’s wearing a t-shirt and a backpack. The woman on the right is wearing similar glasses except with a blue frame and light blue lenses. Her shirt is multi-colored lines with a slight turtleneck. Her backpack is a light blue. Her hair is tied back with a purple head wrap. The man’s hand is on the dog’s chest, near a brown leather collar and grey tick collar. The three of them are standing in what appears to be a forest and oh-so-happy.

A happy black lab. He’s sitting on a rocky beach. The dog is wearing a red collar as well as a grey tick collar below it. He’s also wearing a black and silver body harness. His tongue sticks way out and hangs to the right towards the water. He has big floppy ears. His right eye is pointed directly at the camera, obediently looking at his owner and looking great for the camera. Behind him is lucious grass growing on the edge of the beach. The ocean is in the distance and it’s a calm, low tide.

His head is mostly black feathers, which wrap around to his back. His chest is white. The birds are unique looking, almost like penguins.

Amazon Prints envelopes

When you order photos from Amazon Prints, here's what you can
expect the envelope to look like.

Amazon's envelope is among the top designs of all photo labs we reviewed. It's made of a rigid yet lightweight carboard. Inside the envelope are two additional carboard inserts designed to prevent your photos from bending, sandwiching your photos inside another white, paper envelope.

A vertically positioned, brown cardboard envelope with a white shipping label stuck to it. On the shipping label, the top left is Amazon’s return address: “Amazon Fulfillment Services, 8009374686, 1600 Worldwide Blvd, Hebron KY 410488639.” The top center has text that says 1 LBS the top right says: “1 of 1.” Right below the return address is “SHIP TO” then a digitally blurred address under it. There is a faint purple stamp with some letters and numbers. There is a black line under the shipping address that separates it from the portion which contains a digitally blurred out QR code, right next to this are black texts that are bold that reads: “MA 025 9-01.” Right under this is an even thicker demarcation line with a potion that contains block letters saying “UPS 2ND DAY AIR,” under it is a small text that says “Tracking #1” and with a digitally blurred out tracking number. On the other end of this portion is a very large and bold number “2.” A thinner line separates this from another part that has a digitally blurred out bar code. And a thicker line separates this portion from another portion below it with tiny illegible reference numbers. Under the shipping label, on the dark brown envelope is very large black text with the word “photos” and Amazon's arrow traveling from under the “P” to “S.” Under the logo reads a warning in a black text which says “PHOTOS ENCLOSED” in block letter, and warning in black, block, and bold text saying: “PLEASE DO NOT BEND.” Envelope sitting on wood table top.
A horizontally positioned, cardboard envelope with flaps on each end. At the center is Amazon's big black logo arrow, traveling from the left to right. A small recycle icon and text saying: “PLEASE RECYCLE” in black ink printed at the center bottom of the envelope. The bottom right has a barcode with numbers 600019873. Envelope sitting on wood table top.
