Can the Polaroid Now print a photo from my phone?

No, the Polaroid Now is an analog instant camera that photographs a scene through its lens. The Polaroid Lab is the device designed to transfer a smartphone image onto Polaroid film, so the two products serve different purposes.

Does the original Polaroid Now charge through USB-C?

Many original 2020 Polaroid Now units use Micro-USB, while later generations use USB-C. Check the charging port and model label on the specific camera rather than assuming that every product titled Polaroid Now is the same generation.
