When we tested | August 2020 | August 2020 |
Summary | York creates a nice-quality print. However, we noticed some cutting issues in our test order. 4/10 of our photos had white edges left from the cutting process, in particular the square print. | Walmart is the best photo lab for local pick up. They've recently started using a type of lab called a "dry lab" which produces extremely vivid images. Walmart's one-hour turnaround is also the quickest when compared to other local options like CVS, Walgreens, and Office Depot. Walmart's local pick up photo quality is surprisingly better than ordering online. |
