Is the one I went for. I like the flexibility in being able to use different width rolls. I don't have a lot of suggestions other than that, since it depends a lot on which use case you have.
I think all of them use the same app (don't quote me on it), which had decent enough reviews: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.project.aimotech.printmaster
I'm sure there are other brands too.
I don't really know my use case, I just like the idea and I'll find uses for it. Always avoided label makers because the cartridges are too expensive. Thanks!
Since you don't know your use case, I'll also mention a different approach that solved a similar problem, which is how I'd go about it if I needed color labels, a lot of labels, or special labels for outdoor use, etc.
Which is to combine a normal, (in my case, a laser) printer, and use something like this: https://www.herma.co.uk/office-home/product/weatherproof-film-labels-a4-white-extremely-strong-adhesion-4581/
The Herma brand were decent quality, and also had templates (see link example, a bit further down on the page). The downside is that you need to put in some effort. But if you want full control, high quality labels, that's not a bad way to do it.
