In 20 18, it was selected into the Forbes Global Enterprise 2000 list. In recent years, the sales of Fuji instax series polaroid cameras have increased greatly, thanks to its "sea tactics" and "photographic paper matrix".

Since10 released the first Polaroid instax mini 10 in 1998, Fuji's layout in the primary imaging field has been quite complete, mainly including Polaroid, photo paper and photo printer.

Looking at the sales lists of Amazon, JD.COM, Tmall and other e-commerce platforms, Fuji occupies a large number of seats, among which mini90, mini70, mini9, WIDE300, SQ6 and other models are recommended by well-known foreign evaluation websites such as DP Review, Digital Camera World and Wirecutter.
