Hi everyone. I missed the link in the video originally but you can order the P1S here from Bambu. Just to confirm this is an affiliate link but again I will stress I would not recommend this printer or use their links if it was not as good as I said it is. I very carefully use links on my channel and the very fact I’m using them is a sign of trust I have for Bambu and their products.
shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=2377904&u=2831068&m=138211&urllink=&afftrack=
Haha I read this as “I will stress I would not recommend this printer” the first time
For some reason it only shows that they deliver to China when I go to their website.
@@TheFeenux06I get the same issue, only several countries it'll ship to when using that link
@MadRC can you tell me what Filament and file you used for that rose you made? I'm about to pull the trigger and buy a P1S and I know my daughter and wife would love the rose. It looks amazing!
Hey, heads up that this link is no longer working
Man... these printers are an absolute breath of fresh air. I have both an X1C and a P1S. Absolutely in love! I sold all of my prusa printers and completely went bambu labs.
Yea they are fantastic. My worry is always trying to not sound like a I’m shilling it but they are that good.
@@MadRC I say give credit where credit is due. I've been printing for 15 years. I can testify. They ARE that good!
@@MadRC We have an X1C for testing purposes at the moment and it really is great, but there is one big show stopper that keeps me from dropping all our Crealitys, Sovols, Prusas etc. - and that is the proprietary approach of Bambu Labs. 3D printing is *only* where it is today because it comes from the open source community and was not padlocked behind patents, undocumented tech, lawsuits, greed and big corp pressure. I've read the statements from Bambu in regards of open source and frankly, their stance on it is pretty upsetting, even if hidden behind well written nothingness. As it stands, getting those printers puts you in a perfect vendor-lock-in scenario, and with 30+ years of experience in the tech sector I dare say, that is something you really, really want to avoid. It's MacOS all over again: take something the community created, close it down, put some proprietary parts on it and thus defile the whole idea it was based on.
@MadRC the fact we knew you'd worry about that before you said it means we trust you never would
As someone with both, how much better would you say the X1C is?
What is your recommendation for someone's only printer?
Thanks!
So this printer, hardened steel nozzle and gears and it's basically ready for everything I print.
Thanks for the brutal honesty Ian!
Gonna contemplate some more about buying, and probably use the affiliate link anyway, as it's well deserved!
Absolutely perfect review! You addressed every question I had and explained it. And I love that you touched on having the options vs not having.... a very true and honest review and helped more than you know! THANK YOU!
When I order my P1S I'll be using your link. This was the most informative video I've seen on the pros and cons of each printer. Thanks!
Best comparison video I've come across, thank you! You pointed out so many differences that most have left out.
Hi ! Thank you for this video! I've been watching this P1S for a few days now and just discovered your channel.
I love the fact that you're transparent about affiliate links and the fact that Bambu sent you this printer!
The LAN only mode having one lose functionalities that should not (in my opinion) require the use of a cloud is a real shame. I don't want any form of cloud, and I don't want to then pay for a camera that I wouldn't be able to use. Not sure yet if it's a dealbreaker for me, but that's certainly a blow.
As a noobie, I'd watched many dozens of 3d printer reviews, setup tutorials, Mfg problems, trouble shooting and studied up on the different filament types before contemplating a purchase. I decided on the X1-C w/AMS and after several weeks of use, i bought another with 2 additional AMS units! It's an absolute joy to use, especially for a noobie not wanting to fiddle with settings and such, my time is valuable to me and having a print and forget (for the most part) is great!
a very rich noobie
@@ZFGFZDGDFG time is money, lol. But I'm of a similar mindset to OP. I really want to make some of my own stuff, but I don't want to have to spend all my time tweaking and adjusting to get it right. I want a machine that just works. And if a few hundred extra dollars is the price of that peace of mind, I'll pay it happily.
@@tyrannicpuppy To add to that, if tweaking and tuning your printer is a chore for you and not a fun part of a hobby, you could actually really easily get those couple hundred dollars out of a more expensive printer in time saved by not having to tweak and tune it. That tuning time can really rack up dozens of hours very easily
@@ZFGFZDGDFG I mean, depending on how old you are and in what stage of life you are, with a proper job you should be able to afford something like this. And in the long run it could even make sense to spend some extra money.
@@thatCbean I'm probably grabbing the X1C next month, coming from an Ender 3 which I've had since december 2018. I feel like it's only a logical choice because by now I've had my fair share of experience with tweaking, tuning, debugging and upgrading my 3D printer. Now I just want something that just works perfectly out of the box, can print better materials, can print faster, can print multiple colors or materials, and with a bigger build volume so that I can iterate faster on parts for my hobbies and functional use.
I enjoy fiddling around with this tech, but when I just want to print something without having to wait around the printer for 10 minutes to make sure the first layer sticks properly etc., it can be quite demovitating and I think it's the reason I haven't used the printer that much and haven't printed many big parts because of common failures.
Great review, really covered all the bases and explained the differences very clearly. Thank you. Ordered from your link.
Thank you for the wonderful review. Will be getting a P1S with your link as a thank you 👍
I just bought the P1S combo and I’m happy I did. Great review!!
Got a PS1 three months ago and have been blown away ever since. It is truly amazing. I print 6 days out of seven and have yet to have a print fail. I have Creality and a Snapmaker which do not even come close to this machine. It is fantastic!!!
Flawless review! Thank you for your time
Great write up and I agree with what you say in regards to the p1s, my only very slight niggle with the p1s is that some times the first layer can play up, but as you mention in the video keep an eye on the first layer then you can walk away from the print. Just to add I have only had minor issues with the first layer due to using the cool plate option 35deg c. Little bit of glue on the pei sheet and it's golden. Also I think if they adjusted the print head g code to wait until the nozzle to hit tepreture instead of starting the print run when the head is a couple of degrees lower this will help as well.
I just started my 3D printing journey a few months ago. Like many, I started with an Ender 3. I've done a handful of mods to improve it, but I am planning on moving onto the Bambu P1S next.
Just picked this up and I’m excited that you also agree!
Great review! Cheers
Thank you for this, this is the best review/comparison I've found so far as you touched on everything I wanted to know and simply so. Definitely going with the P1S, that camera is a bummer, though.
I love mine. I was literally about to buy a P1P until I saw an announcement/video on P1S. I've had a number of Ender printers and this was by far the best I've had so far.
I have the P1P. A workaround for getting the time lapse files from the SD card is to use FTP. Works like a charm!
Great video! Just wanted to mention that polymers means plastic, which all filaments are.
I think you were referring to composites/abrasive materials. :)
Fantastic in depth review with the comparisons. Now I'm just waiting to see what they release on the 20th. A bigger build plate seals the deal
Awesome vid and love the Byte Off shirt! I'm on the fence in choosing between the K1 Max and Bambu Lab X1C. I'll be purchasing one of them for sure for an anniversary gift. Wondering which one you would choose between the two of them? Thanks and just subscribed!
I'm getting this. Convinced. What a good video as well! So detailed. I was on the fence. This looks beautiful. Coming from years of enders and cr10s lolol I'm ready.
Me too! Ready to move on from 7 years of Enders
bambu p1s is my first 3d printer and I love it. I literally have absolutely no experience with 3d printers. Two weeks ago I didn't know what slicing was. that's how new I am to 3d printer and its exactly what you explained. i love my bambu lad p1s.
Thanks for such a comprehensive overview of the differences between these printers. It's helped me immensely in my decision. I have decided to go with the P1S. I am most interested in print quality so this is really the best choice for me. Thank you so very much.
I had to pause the video and just say; what an amazing video quality and good voice!
I'm planning on getting it(P1s+ams) sometime next year, after upgrading some old 3d printers and buying a Neptune 3 or 4 Max. Also, love the enclosure, unlike the P1P.
Buying a P1S myself. This will be my second 3D printer. My current printer is an inexpensive ANET ET4 and although it can print well at slow speeds. It's biggest drawback in the capacitive sensor used to sense bed leveling. It will often drift depending on temperature and becomes a pain having to re-adjust the sensor with a small screwdriver before every print cycle which can take 30 minutes or more. I'm hoping this printer will allow me enjoy more print time and less screwing around time. I'm going to try bed leveling the ET4 printer by adding a single optical sensor on the Z axis to detect the bed level without a sensor on the print head. If the bed is level, then one point alone should dictate the level. Wish me luck.
Well having followed you and +xjets print bed instructions to the letter it probably is the sort of thing I need
Have been diving into Bambu for my next printer (have a MK3S+ now) and found this the best and most useful video. I love that you focus on real usage situations and not just drilling all the same things all the others do. One extra thing I prefer the P1S for (vs the X1C) is that It's (apparently) slightly less noisy. Although It's probably such a minor difference they'll both sound noisy. Did you experience any differences on sound levels? The noise is the biggest reason the MK4 is still in the mix.
thanks for the great video
@MadRC ,
I am bummed that I got mine before you posted this video, or I would have indeed used your affilliate link to support your amazing work. I just wanted to say that I too have the P1S and it just worked brilliantly right out of the box. I have printed literally dozens of things up to this point and have never had a single issue or print failure. I did not get the version with the AMS because I just don't need it for the kind of printing I regularly do, but I DO use it to make multi-color TPU prints and the ease with which you can change filaments at specific layers is absolutely amazing. You simply right click on the layer in Bambu studio where you want to change the color, and insert a "pause" and then either use Studio or the touch pad to unload and then reload the new filament and hit "done", then press the "play" or continue button and the P1S picks up right where you left off and creates PERFECT multi layered color prints. It is absolutely mind blowing how easy and how good it is.
Great video, great review and my experiences 100% mirror yours sir.
Thanks, never noticed that before!
I'm slowly saving for one
Just bought one thanks to you 🙂
Great review !!!! Subscribed
Possibly one of the most complete, fair/unbiased, and concise reviews of any product that I've ever seen. That being said, I still can't decide! LOL I've been working with an Ender 3 V2 Neo for about the past year, and I have really got myself dialed in with both the printing as well as my CAD skills and I think it's time to upgrade. Knowing myself the way I do, I will probably fork over the extra money for the X1 so that I don't have any regrets that I "cheaped out". Thanks again for your review/opinion.
Hey i have a X1 and its just amazing for the CF materials. Given we can replace the gears and hotend for the hardened steel versions, im assuming that the P1S can use all CF reinforced materials that bambu offer but i have seen peopel doubting this without giving good reasons. Have you tried this upgrade and printed with PLA-CF/PEG-CF/Nylon-CF etc.?
Great review! Although I would recommend getting the X1C, that Lidar feature is getting a lot of tweaking by Bambu recently which results in much better print quality. Eventually it will be a must have for perfect prints, just having everything automatic, I love it.
@@Pineappletomato Yes it is, I always turn it on before any print even if it has the correct values. It just ensures me it will always print in the highest quality. Besides the manual setup (which I've also done to test if it comes close to auto) takes quite some time. And I switch filaments a lot.
Thank you for this honest review. I purchased with your affiliate link
Based on this video and coming from an Ender 3, I am stoked to have purchased the P1S with the AMS on Black Friday. Thank you !
Great review! Wasnt there some closed source software on p1 vs open source software on x1??? Think thats on bambu lab docs site under software section.
I've been FTP to my P1S to get timelaps and such off it. It saves me having to take the SD card in and out. Only issue is its slow. 250kbs max. and if the printer is doing anything then its half of that if your lucky. Only other kinda issues ive had have been the camera. It just pauses and does not update after 10-20 mins. The handy app is the same. The older versions of studio would then freeze and crash. New one freezes but you can switch off the video and then back on and it works again. The Cloud printing is useful but i would prefer to use Lan mode and have camera and also it been nice to have print history and stats thats not just in the handy app. I have had times where its been super slow to upload and or download from the cloud. Hopefully they will update this in the future. Hardened gears and hotend upgrade only cost me 50 quid more. Only other thing id say is i dont think you mentioned the print bed surface. The P1S comes with a very nice double sided PEI textured steel sheet which is different to both the other printers in the line up. Cheers.
great review, great printer and I guess I will get one later this year during the sales season in November.
I'm not in a hurry and usually would have started with a lot cheaper just to get into it and sell it if I would outgrow.
I also do not like that camera quality cause for such an expensive product they can not cut the cost at the final 10 or 15€ for a better camera, which is a shame. Will end in 6 months with a new offer: we listened: 60€ and you get a better camera
Which I would hate to see cause they had done it wrong from the beginning.
But after my overall good dji product experiences I might go with this one even though I hate to see all the registration and cloud and privacy issues considering that there is no need at all for that.
I will look for a buddy who has bought one and let me know his experience but the most recent purchases were elgoo pro 4 or so.
Just ordered the p1s today. Never owned a 3d printer before, so watching other videos and talking to my brother, i ended up with the p1s with the AMS. Looking forward to try it out and start learning
Hey so what do you think?
Slicer aside, has it been as user friendly as you had expected? Im not new to 3D printing, just kind of over the whole tinkering process.
I just ordered a P1S today for, mostly, my son's sake. The ender 3 we have is a bit too discouraging with all the failed prints and tweaking required to make it print well on his own. Hoping the P1S will be way closer to plug and play for him.
@@DoggMatik I am very happy with it. It just works more or less perfectly out of the box. I printed a lot of stuff without major issues, and the issues i had was mostly my own fault by messing up slicer settings and thinking i knew more than i did ^^. I also had a major clog, again due to my own stupidity and setting the temps too high for pla, and while it was some work to be done to unclog it, It was fairly easy to disasemble and reasemble without any prior knowledge of printers or extruders
I have yet to run a fillament calibration and the generic settings have worked really good for me. Print quality has been really good, can't really see layer lines or anything like that. top surface can be a bit hit or miss, but ive yet to have a surface i had to reprint as the quality was to bad. My brother has been 3d printing since more or less the beginning, and he was blown away by the print quality.
I am 95% sure you and your son will love it and just do the regular basic maintenance and you will have a printer that works great for years
Only issues I've had with my p1s is warping when printing with ABS prints and some with ASA. Not sure if the x1c handles those filaments better? That and carbon may be my excuse to get a x1c as well.
Thanks!
You are absolutely on the money concerning P1S vs X1C. After the simple upgrade on P1S, of changing the hot end and extruder, gear you have what X1C can do. As for the display panels, I can't justify $500 for the difference. In fact what I can justify is the fact I already have 2 and am shooting for another 2. Four of P1S at $950 ea is $3.8g. Four of X1C is $6g. That's a lot of cash difference which can now go to alot of Ale, with a zero compromise in output quality.
Ale yeah
great information. I need to checkout your videos for tuning filaments on the x1 and p1, or just issue you may have encountered.
Just ordered mine last night I will let you know my thoughts when I start playing with it
So a week and a half ago I upgraded from an old Ender 3 V2 by by buying two Ender 3 KE's. I had long ago put away my original Ender because it required too much Faffing around. The KE's were definitely an upgrade and printed nicely when they worked. One printed flawlessly. The other was wrought with issues .. all resolved with work ... then it suffered a catastrophic failure on the hot end. I took them both back and bit the bullet buying a P1S and an AMS. It prints like a dream with no print cleanup necessary when designed and oriented correctly. But either one and you will be happy!
Great printer. I‘m thinking about switching to Bambu Lab. Great print quality out of the box and you get what you were promised. Yeah, its more expensive, but you can spend more time on creating parts and printing instead of tinkering around.
I'm going from ender 3 s1 to the P1S just waiting for it to arrive can't wait for the speed, quality and ease of use.
How has the P1S been for you?
Really enjoyed this video. Learnt a thing or two that I didn't know before. I'm hoping to order a P1S in the near future. Would you recommend getting the AMS bundle even if I'm not all that interested in multi-coloured printing right now? (From a point of view of convenience when changing filaments and possible future proofing.)
From what I heard (don't have one yet) it is useful for continuing print (if there is not enough filament on one roll so it can continue using second the same one or other color).
Thanks! That's also one of the aspects that I'm considering.
Fantastic review, thanks for giving such a great, detailed comparison. Things have changed since the last time I got into 3DP as a hobby. I had a PrintrBot and it was a shame to see them dissolve after having a very reliable product. I was hoping to get your thoughts on the subject of longevity - for Bambu Labs, not their printers. Is this a flash in the pan or do you think they will be around for years like Prusa? It would be disappointing if they went under and then consumers had no access to spare parts or repair kits.
The next layer made a video with Dr ye tao and he said that if they went out of business then they will open source the hardware
@@3D_Printing_Lab1ó
Excellent testing and review, Ian! Thanks!!! 😃
Awesome printer indeed!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Are you able to change the filament color yourself when printing a model you want to have multiple colors without buying the AMS?
I've just used your link to purchase an X1-C. Not sure if you still get a payment as I'm UK.. Took all your review on board and you are probably right, X1 may not be worth the extra but I didn't want to regret not going for the X1..
I have an original Ender 3 which I have been using for 4 years, an Ender 5 and CR-10.. Looking forward to a trouble free multi colour printer..
Just got my P1S last week, it's a beast!
Just looked at Bambu's accessories site for P1P (not P1S) upgrades and I couldn't find the cavity temperature sensor. So even if you wanted to make you own enclosure for the P1P, it looks like you couldn't get the cavity sensor. That's a reason for getting the P1S. But I hope Bambu makes that available for all the P1P users out there would would like to enclose their printer.
I have the P1P, and I got work to purchase a X1 Carbon. Wish I knew how to disable the Lidar & calibration print, Printing from sd card as it's not allowed on the network
Subscribed. Awesome. Please make a detailed simple video on different types of filaments, and what their uses (PG , PLA and PLA + , pet g, and so on).
I am just getting into 3d printing and after selling my old truck, i was able to buy myself the x1 carbon. I didnt get the ams module since i wasnt sure if it was worth it. If i just do it for hobby stuff, would it still be worth it to get the ams?
Finally time to retire my two trusty Wanhao Di3's. Thanks for the vid, really helpful.
Watch a few of you video now an very informative, so thanks for sharing.
I have a question, I'm fresh to 3D printers and set on the Bambu range. Should I choose the new A1 with AMS lite over the P1S?. The X1C is out of my price range. I'm thinking of future proofing. The A1/AMS seems to be the best value (And provides color options) but cannot print ABS, ASA etc. For the P1S I know I can purchase the AMS later if I need multiple color, and its provides the enclosure for ABS, ASA etc later if I decide the graduate to those filaments. Right now I'm torn on which to choose. Bed slinger or XY. The price of the P1S is like $150 dearer than the A1/AMS. Can you help guide me on best option here between the 1. I have excluded the P1P
The x1c or p1s has the function to dry the filaments?
Hello, great and so detailed video. Thank you. Can you please confirm that the speed of this printer is really 500 mm/s? Does this mean that, for example, it will print lithophane 10*10 cm within two hours? Do you have experience with printing the lithophanes and what are your impressions regarding the precision and details of the printing? Does this printer have the ability to work only with FDM material or? Does the software come with it or not?
Sorry for the many questions, but simply no matter who I ask, no one can give me an answer, not even the distributors for 3d printers - not even in general about the printing speed. Once again, thank you very much.
Great review.
The only thing missing is your opinion on the noise. Now that I know that LAN mode would work fine for my needs, that's my only remaining concern.
It’s loud but it’s not K1 loud. It’s definitely louder than a Prusa but the Creality K1 is louder. The thing with the fast printers is the fans are all jacked up. I did miss this aspect in this review but I will be covering it later in a comparison.
I'm not sure you can get such a level of speed and performance without the noise. It's a trade off.
I picked up a cheap ender 3 printer and have gotten bit by the 3D printing bug. Buying one of these is my next step for sure.
At about 5:20 it should be noted that Bambu states you should not use abrasive filaments (such as Carbon Fiber) with the AMS.
Is that still the case? That makes me lean towards not getting it then. Cf needs to stay enclosed more than most other filaments. Rather just get a nice drier box , manual changing filaments doesn’t seem hard to do
can I use nylon on the P1S? Great review, thanks
I have 2 x1 and PS1 love them they just work right out of the box. Also love ams works great
100%. Phenomenal printers
I've watched a few reviews of these printers, and this was my favorite! Thank you for the super thorough information!
Looking at the p1s with ams. I had an elegoo Neptune 4 before but wanted to do multicolor prints. Would it be better to wait for a sale or should I buy now? Could there be a black Friday or Christmas sale?
Absolutely fantastic machine. P1P is on offer for £550
OUT OF THE BOX -- PERFECT PRINTS
maybe they could add led status lights just like Datron milling machines have.
This was an INCREDIBLE review, thank you, Ian. You answered, genuinely, all my questions. If I could pose one, if you have the time to respond, is the AMS unit worth it if I don’t play to use different colored filaments, at least initially, for the storage and temperature/humidity benefits afforded by it?
Hay thanks for the feedback. As for the AMS it does make a tidy filament storage box however it’s not a drier. It’s only going to keep it as it was of sealed with decant. As for if it’s worth it there are some good filament driers for much cheaper. However what is handy is using it as a store and easy swap
My printer is going to come next week. Im brand new to the 3D printing world but I am a 3D artist for more than 6 years. Time to make my art come to real life!
I do think Bambu should seel a touch screen display for the P1S, like 300$ for it and so on.... Tks superb and honest review, will try to use ur link if it Canada is there. :-)
i think im gonna go with the Carbon, peace of mind for the lydar and the other features.
I think 3:05 sold me on them hahah. I'm not a poor undergrad anymore so I'm ready to stop having a Creality and Anycubic that I have to FIGHT for a good 30min before it does a solid print.
I got into 3D printing a few years back with a AnyCubic Vyper. It was a pretty good printer and my only real issue had to do with storing stringiness, but was resolved when I dehumidified my reels. I looked for a step up and decided on the P1S with AMS as I was looking at multi-color printing. As former electro-mechanical tech, this machine is well built and impressive; is it well very well built. Also, this machine is speedy, produces great quality prints, and I am definately a fan. I purchased the PS1 as the X1 was a bit out of my price range, and am not sorry about my purchase. I had a party and gave away 3D prints as prizes, and every who asked about 3D printing got my unsolicited Bambu labs recommendation.
If someone is looking for their next 3D printer, I have to say, the Bambu printers are in a league of their own and recommend them wholeheartedly.
Well here we go.. I have owned the X1C for a few months and just pulled the trigger on the P1S because of this review 😅 I hope it really is close to print and leave as my carbon
What do you think now that you have had both for some time
@@hillnothey both print the same, I actually use my P1S more since I have PLA loaded into it and have ABS in my X1C. But I have used ABS on the P1S and it had identical print quality. With all the upgrades Bambu had done to the P1S the list of items exclusive to the X1C is very minimal and I’m sure over time will be non existent (from a software side). The X1C has a faster processor for things other than printing, when it comes to printing they are both press start and print. I have had 3 failures on the P1S out of like 100, and that was due to me not wiping off the build plate every so often. Save the cash and buy the P1S!
All sounds good but, pun intended, how loud are they? How many dB standing next to the printer for a P1P, P1S, and X1C when printing slow, fast and ludicrous?
I am thinking of replacing my Flashforge Adventurer 3 and getting a P1S. All the Adventurer 3 gives me is loading trouble every time I use it. Most prints fail as well.
It would be interesting to see them compared for higher temperature filaments like nylon and polycarbonate, they seem to be where the x1c is better due to the higher bed temperature and probably better enclosure.
It would also be interesting to see how useful the lidar is for more exotic filaments like varioshore and lightweight PLA where the line width does change and without the lidar would require manual calibration. Most normal filaments will behave much the same so that reduces the usefulness of the lidar and calibrating extrusion for different types of PLA or ABS isn’t something you have to do even on a basic ender 3.
Does anyone know WHY the X1 has a higher bed temperature? Is there an actual reason or is it artificial? I hear different things like the heater element is smaller on the P1 and the material of the bed but in my experience using other printers I can get 110C+ even on old wimpy little 12V printers with terrible beds and heaters, it's just a lot slower.
@@_droid it is probably artificial, they probably use the same parts but who knows?
@madrc Which mid range (£800 avg), core xy, enclosed printer do u recommend?
I think the P1S is a good upgrade from P1P. I weighed the two for my first 3D printer and chose the P1S with AMS. I don't think the X1 is worth the $500 increase.
One difference most reviewers seem to miss is the light up name on the X1C extruder vs the P1P/S which doesn't light up. I extremely minor difference but for those chasing that LED bling clout....
Yes that fell into a few other other little things category.
Want to build a 3d print farm and start out with 4 printers at home. Would the x1c be a good choice?
if you don't use the AMS right away , where does the filament go ? can you still do multicolor prints by swapping colors the old fashioned way ?
My p1s with ams comes soon. Im tired of wasting my design time fixing my ender 5 print issues. Cant waste my time fixing prints all day.
I love my ender 5 plus because the build size but its annoying to tweak all the time. Especially when it messes up at the end of a 25 hour print
Great video. I am interested in getting this after years on working with Artillery Sidewinder and having lots of problems. When I click on the link it brings me to Bambu's site where I can't get it to ship to USA.
6 months and a few firmware updates later, how much of a difference do you think the lidar makes now? If the P1 had a better camera and and screen, I wouldn't even think about which one to get, but, that's where I am. I plan to print most all materials (Nylon, ASA, etc etc) and I wonder how much time/filament the lidar saves in calibrating.
As someone who is still considering getting into 3D printing, and has been watching SOOO many videos on different printers, I will admit that I do like the look of the Bambu Lab offerings! I was considering the P1P - but with the release of the P1S, I think that, when I can afford it, I will more likely be going for the P1S! I just want a printer that works straight out of the box, produces good quality prints, and doesn't cost the Earth - and the P1S seems to fit the bill! 😃
It is a great printer.
im picking up a p1s soon. i want an x1 but its just a little too expensive.
So the X1 Carbon is a bad value add for the price but how is a P1S Vs the equivalent Elegoo model?
Hi friend.
I’m thinking of getting my first 3D printer. Can you advise if either the Ps1 or AnkerMake M5 would be best for me. I just want to ‘play’ and make Adhoc things when I need to. Perhaps somethings needing a harder robust filament. Thank you in advance. (I’m Cardiff based btw 🏴)
Don’t buy the Anker. Avoid them at all costs. It’s the P1S or if your after something much cheaper to play with the Sidwinder X2 is a great cheap printer as well.
Is it possible to upscale, in other words, if one buys a certain file for printing a flower, can they make some adjustments on the printer to "scale up" the model, would this affect the quality or the strength? I will be using it for RC airplanes where keeping the exact scale and strength are important.
Thanks
