Has last in tech
yep thats my twitter name.
got a P1S?
No.
Oh wait, yes. Yes I have. I have a P1S. Let's go!
This is the P1S and it is not going to be a review, think of it as a reveal I guess,
I will do a full poke around later. The P1S was announced just this last
monday and I think if my intel is correct should be available now or if not, soon.
I know exactly what you want to know, well, two things, ok three things - one,
what is the diff between this and the p1p, two what is the diff between this and the X1C,
and finally the price. Hopefully the last one has been answered by now, I have been told,
but I don't want to have to re-record the script so I will put it on screen now. That
price you see there is...surprising. Bambu Lab are....not messing around with the price.
Okay - I have an X1C so this one is the easier end to approach it. The X1C has a lidar,
the P1S doesn't. Consequently the P1S doesn't need to have the black mystery oven tray style
bed that I actually like, but luckily my other favourite bed is PEI and that is what they've
gone for. Double sided PEI no less. And it's gold unlike the existing PEI sheets. I like black,
but I think the gold looks good against the case, and if you're printing in dark filament
it makes it show up a lot better. The screen is familiar I'm sure,
this is I think going to be the biggest reason to buy an X1C after today,
it has the huge colour touch screen whereas they have gone with the P1 series screen on the P1S,
and don't rush to the comments complaining, it's probably one of the big things they had to do,
otherwise, well, why would you buy an X1C now? You might have noticed, it's not obvious,
that we have an enclosure, it's identical in shape and function to the X1C but it appears
to be molded plastic. The X1C is aluminum. The glass door and lid are identical.
Dimensionally it's identical to the X1C. This makes sense as presumably
the tooling doesn't change for a lot of the stuff,
I'm not an engineer, but that would be one way to drive the cost down.
In terms of trying to round up the remaining things it has that the P1P doesn't,
there was no point putting a filter I assume in the P1P, this has the same carbon filtration as
the X1C so I'm very happy to see that as it is in fact proper carbon gravel stuff,
this is on a par with the nevermore filter, this is the good stuff.
We have also got a camera - as far as I can tell it's identical to the X1,
and the side curtain fan is included in the package too.
Nozzle wise we seem to be looking at... I think this is a steel nozzle, I don't think it's brass.
The assembly looks the same as the other two, in terms of the hotend...I dont see any differences.
The AMS compatibility remains the same as the X1C and P1P, except you have a good solid lid
to place it on now. The P1S combo is what I have been sent which is the same AMS as you expect,
and you get the three sample reels with that. I am totally going to get hold of
one of these now since I have two AMS units, so that'll be coming in the future I think.
So, if I cover any more then it'll be an actual review which it's not,
so I won't. If you have any questions for me then I will gather them up and answer them in
the next one but hopefully this will be enough for now. This is an interesting turn of events
isn't it. We are having a very eventful 2023 in 3d printing. Comments below if you have any,
I imagine you will. I will see you next time. Thank you for watching.
