I have had an X1C for over a year now and love it so much!! Installed x1 Plus firmware for more network security and that has been nice too so far. JUST bought an A1 mini for smaller stuff, so I guess that’s why I’m seeing this video. But as a veteran X1C owner, with probably thousands of hours on it, I definitely recommend! Have hundreds in spare parts, haven’t needed one yet. I definitely keep up on my Preventative Maintenance though. Have owned Creality, Anycubic, Prusa - built a Voron… The X1C hands down is the best bang for buck time and money. I AM grateful to the other brands I owned though, because I actually understand what is going on and really appreciate the technology to make it super easy. I probably had as much money into trying to get my ender bed leveel, as I paid for the ender itself. *_rant complete_*
Watched this video (after) i purchased my x1 online this morning and i’m stooooked. I love that it’s becoming sophisticated enough for non familiars to be engaged. I’ll feel way more confident leaving ppl that want to learn to trade in the shop when i’m like on store runs and stuff (verses my Ender 3). Thanks and happy printing amigo!
we got one in the company this week, but although it's a brilliant printer, the biggest letdown was that you can't control the printer with multiple people without logging out. That ( logical) functionality is the moste requested feature on the forum since it came out, but bambulab doent even bother to give any comment. What were they thinking? It immediately reduces useablility for us by at least 70%
Your intro explanation of your 3Dprinting journey sounds exactly like mine. I've 4 previous printers, none of which were reliable to keep me in the hobby. Then I got the X1-C. It has completely changed my entire 3D Printing hobby.
I just got this and an A1 mini and the X1C is as awesome as I expected but the A1 mini really blew away my expectations. It prints unbelievably fast and accurate for what seems like such an unstable design. Asthetically i love it too. Reminds me of 80s Apple PCs. This is what FDM manufacturers should have been aspiring to the whole time. Bambu printers are the beginning of what 3d printers have to become.
I bought a BQ B1 a couple of years back, and within a month or two, I stopped using it. The amount of tinkering was too much, and I just couldn't get any print right. I want something that just works. The X1 or P1S look ideal for someone like me, who wants to spend more time designing and printing over spending 5 hours on bed levelling.
Thanks for this review: FWIW I got out of this that this is a great printer to get started with if you just want to be able to print things mostly reliably and not have to fuss with multiple things.
Bought one of these last week, finally an upgrade from a flashforge dreamer (~10 years ago) Wow. This thing is amazing. To be fair all the new printers in this price range are probably amazing, but this thing set itself up, did its calibration jiggle and off it went printing a flawless first print on to the textured plate with no adhesive applied. It just printed dead flat with no shrinkage and no warping, oh and the model had 20mm overhangs with ZERO droop and NO supports, requiring ZERO cleanup. The lowest quality print on this was better than the finest detail on my flashforge. $1,500 USD well spent. Theres a hack to make the hotend go up to 350°C or so, the same as the X1E.
Can’t believe I checked out your video when I got the Ioniq 5, and now I’m watching another one about the X1C, which I’m thinking about buying! How do you know my life so well? 😁
Very cool 3d printer. I wonder how this compares with others. Don’t know much about 3D printers, but I’m pretty sure my curiosity is going to make me buy one in the future. This X1C in particular peaks my interest. Not cheap, but it can make so many things. I use to do a little 3d modeling back in the day, so I’m thinking about all the cool and useful things i could design and make. Would be really cool to see you do a comparison with other models. Keep up the great work.
@@mariospanayiotou6644I bought the P1S and the AMS almost a year ago and it still delivers the prints I want and in a quality I am more than happy with. Mind you, I don't print things like masks or pretty things. I use it to print parts for my projects. I am now in the final stages of building my own 3D printed laser cutter system using parts I designed and printed using this beast. The gantry mounts for the NEMA 17 motors, the mounts for the 40 watt optical output laser from Laser Tree and the mounts for the 2020 and 2040 aluminum extrusion. Just ask of it and it shall deliver. Gotta go. My last print just finished. 😁👍
I just ordered on this morning. Can't wait to get my hands on it. I have a Creality S1 which has been a decent printer and I'll keep and use it, but the X1 is going to take me to a new level.
@@threeeyedtribe Honestly it has exceeded my highest expectations. I have been using it nonstop. So far only printing with PLA, but getting ready to start using some other filaments that I never had success with while using the Ender 3. The Ender 3 has been moved to an upstairs hobby room and interestingly since I placed it on a more sturdy and stable table I have not had to adjust the bed leveling even once. With the Bambu I feel like I skipped forward a decade in technology.
I have the A1 and it is just fantastic, I also have the S1, It’s been dismantled and put back in the box, that shows how happy I am with the A1. And a Neptune 4 Pro, back in the box.
Thanks for the fantastic review! I am buying one today, you convinced me =). I've followed 3D printing for many years and like you said, it's always come off as too finicky and not practical enough for the real work I want my 3D printer to do for me. With this generation of 3D printers and the smarts in this printer specifically I'm now finally excited enough about them to spend money on it. I've also spent the last few years getting to know Blender, so it will be fun to merge these two technologies together. I'm curious about the t-shirt you wore in this video, what are those icons? It's a cool look. Thanks for sharing your work with us!
Unfortunately I am thinking about sending my Bambu Labs X1 c back. Two days after I got it I tried to print a multiple color .stl but the nozzle got clogged. As I was removing the nozzle I noticed that the connection labeled J3's edges were broken off thus causing the connection to be slightly loose. I also noticed after unplugging J4, it never would lock into place again when I plugged it back in. When I ordered the printer I also ordered a .2 mm nozzle so I thought that I could replace the clogged .4mm nozzle with that but when I opened the package the .2mm nozzle connections were unattached. Seriously is this normal?
Seriously thinking of purchasing this machine with the AMS. I purchased a Creality Ender 3 Neo Max about a year ago, but sold it after around 6 months as I was tired of all the fiddling and add ons I needed to do pretty much what this does out of the box. It's pricey, but for the convenience I'm thinking its worth it. Looking at the K1 Max too, but I think the Bambu has the greater longevity for me given the additional AMS that the K1 Max does not support.
I love Bambu's own filaments especially because of the RFID... the ONLY thing I wish they would do, is make a cool white opaque PLA+, their own white is great for hue forge and lithophanes, but you can see colors through it even with several layers (6 layers and you can still see red through it) I buy Inland's PLA+ White which is the most opaque I've ever found, also pretty cheap. They should also make more 2-color and 3 color silks, they're always out of stock.
Hmm coming from a Anycubic Viper it's not really a good upgrade the size is actually not that great, the AMS creates a lot of waste and isn't great for support material. The only thing it would bring is the speed increase that is over x5 as much as the current printer + the chamber. And keep in mind that one is heavily modified with Revo + LGX + Servos .. I don't get why they don't improve on it yet as there bed slingers are way more silent than X1C
The latest update made the motors completely silent, but when you print this fast you’re gonna need a lot of cooling so the fans especially the auxiliary fan are gonna be loud. I have the p1p without the aux fan, after the latest update it is definitely more silent than my vyper which had noctua fans on
well I guess I am the only one that has a crap experience to date. just one month old and it decided it didn't know where the bed is anymore. Printing too high off the bed. Had to adjust the z in the G Code by .3mm. prints are now ugly and filament consistently stick to the nozzle. all this from one print to the next. Very disappointing.
If you're talking about the auto-level each time it prints, I suspect you could edit the G-code to remove that line. Then it would just print whatever you sent it immediately, and only do the auto-level function if you specifically directed it to do so.
You can bypass the auto leveling right at the print screen. It takes 5 mins to auto level and it’s worth it for highly detailed or multi colored prints. For prototyping a rough print you don’t need it on.
It is pricey but then again this isn't a printer you'll spend hours on levelling the bed, adjusting the bed sensor or any other component. Heck, this printer doesn't even have a limit switch. It uses the torque feedback from the steppers to determine it's position. Plus it has automatic input shaping which is only needed on higher speed printers. I'd consider it more of an industrial type of printer than a typical home use one. (Didn't stop me from buying the P1S + AMS a year ago. Saved a long time to get but I LOVE IT!) I guess my point is, if you can afford it, it's worth it's weight in gold. And like @tinymito mentioned, you can have a look at the A1 and A1 Mini. Both are bed slingers and not core XY printers but they bring a lot of their big brothers qualities and features to the table at price point most can afford.
Please let’s be real and take into account all the features of this printer that make it the most versatile and easy for anyone to use without hassle. Convince = a premium price. Even considering that 1.5k is a fair price for this
Without the AMS unit, it's $1200. People routinely pay that for a new cell phone...many of them each year. So, a one-time outlay for a printer of this quality and polish is not unreasonable. The Bambu P1S is the exact same machine as the X1C, but with a plastic enclosure and an older, not-as-fancy touch screen, and currently sells for $600. Or you could get a Neptune 4 Max for $440, with a massively bigger build volume, albeit as a bed slinger without an enclosure. You get different things at different levels of cost, often times with more problems that you'll have to figure out on your own. The X1C was designed to make 3D printing as close to simple/stupid as possible, and that's no small thing. A LOT of work went into it, so asking about the price of a new Apple/Samsung cell phone isn't unreasonable or unattainable for everyone. If you want expensive, look no further than the Prusa XL (5 individual print heads) for $4500.
You would have been better off laying that figure down with supports… then the last 30 layers would have needed color changes, instead of standing up and needing 700. The differences in “quality” are negligible, unless you need it for structural integrity. I never use a prime tower, flush into infill… Never an issue unless you are going from red to white (for example). I don’t see the poop issue…
@@ToughCanadianyeah, to have the video labelled as “for everyone” is misleading. Take a look at the P1S, it’s still £600ish without the AMS but otherwise it sharers a lot with the X1C
@@TheBHinettyeap and then there’s the a1 even lower price, and there’s a bunch of printers as low as 200-250 which will perform great if you dont mind the slower speeds.
@@mariospanayiotou6644 lmao 200-250 printers are not slow. neptune 4 is $229 and is same speed as X1C (500 mm/s) 3d printing has very cheap entry but expensve to feed your hunger for more filament and newer printers xd
There’s only 2 printers that I would spend my money on.. Prusa or Bambu.. If you don’t have enough money for one just save up.. Or use a cheaper printer to help you get a better one 💯
gotta love my 900eur unassembled prusa mk3s kit that would print at up to 200mm/s.. Would if I were able to waste 10h of my time to assemble a 3d printer that I know will disappoint me.. prusa sucks.. bambu sucks but less..
@@robblly8112 I own both. i only tried bambu. I also own multiple elegoo printers and anycubic. also got a sovol Elegoo amazing support but sometimes updates will make prints poop themselves Bambu terrible customer service and i hate the proprietary software/firmware. The X1C is amazing as a printer tho if you don't wanna tinker. The A1 mini is also amazing even more now in discount!! Sovol was my first printer. I am not sure wether i messed up badly or if the printer is just bad so I can't say much Anycubic I only tried resin and I am loving the auto leveling but wifi very bad Elegoo resin printers I only tried saturn 3 ultra i dont have any comments on it to be honest. Prusa i never tried to be honest. I only have mine laying around unassembled but for the price and the spces it, they are literally robbing people at this point lol. I never ended up returning it tho always told myself I would try to assemble it and the process of returning to prusa specifically is a PITA I would appreciate that you could be a bit less rude and maybe stop assuming things about people.
People routinely pay that for a cell phone...every year! So, a single outlay of $1300 for a printer that should last years isn't too bad. There are cheaper options, though. The Bambu P1S is essentially the same machine, with a plastic enclosure and a different interface, at like half the price. The X1C is just the new, shiny thing on the block, and it's a really well polished printer, so it's a little more expensive.
Like which ones? I have owned a Prusa and built a Voron 2.4r a little over a year ago. We just got a Bambu X1 with AMS at work, which sits next to our Ultimaker. I will have to tell you that the Bambu is the most impressive printer I have seen yet. Cheaper printers... Sure. Ender is cheaper. Better... Yep, that too with a Stratasys or maybe Ultimaker. Cheaper AND better? Nope.
look at the junk on his table! Is this where the printer is for? The more industrial filaments? Ok, it can print that, but how are de layer adhesion of these filaments. That kind of info is important if you use these filaments for parts that are going to use. Then the speed of printing has to slow down! No Mark, your info is useless for me
a printer for everyone... $1.5K... well... guess we all are wealthy :) neither a printer for people with not that much money to spend it on a hobby like 3d printing... nor a printer for small homes :) of course a great printer for sure, but title "for everybody" is wrong... sorry ! A1 and A1 mini are more likely to be titled "for everyone"
this is a tech channel that poor people watch to feel like they have expensive af devices. what are you expecting? all devices on these channels are flagship products..
@@ericwheelhouse4371 I own the A1 + AMS that’s a printer for everyone. I just wanted to say that the X1 Carbon for sure is a great printer, but there are cheaper printers available doing a GOOD job too, so they are for everyone. Btw I fly FPV this hobby is not that cheap too 👍😊
Yeah most people spend 1000+ dollars on a new phone and every year with no winning or questioning but when a premium machine that dose what it does complain it cost to much
Not sure about all the data that Bambu takes from the printer... and all the encrypted data... and the company that it came from. I wont be buying anything from them even though it seems like a great technology, I dont trust it.
There are many ways to reduce waste in Bambu Slicer. It can’t be eliminated, but can be reduced by up to 50%. Also, you can turn off the calibration and even bed leveling if you don’t want the X1C to do this every time.
@@Pics2FlicksDennis it cant be eliminated with multicolour, but it can be eliminated with single colour. I’ve done it, you can minimize the purge or even set it to 0.
You are basing the judgment on the customer service on allegedly being bad but no experience. The judgment of waste is on default settings which are meant for people to just go and not have to adjust anything and get quality color changes (so there's going to be overkill on purge) if you spend some time testing and adjusting you can cut waste to almost nothing. If you change colors or types on single material systems you have to purge manually which will still cause around the same amount of waste. The convenience and quality are definitely worth the cost for me and bamulab has much more cost effective options as well. You don't have to get one but that doesn't affect the fact that this printer is worth it for a lot of people in the maker space.

I never use a prime tower, flush into infill… Never an issue unless you are going from red to white (for example). I don’t see the poop issue…
Yeah, I'm experimenting now without using a prime tower after so many people saying it isn't needed.
I haven't gotten into 3d printing because the barrier to entry seems high. Hopeful that this can change that for me
Bummer, I see that it's 2 grand Cad. I'm out
@@ToughCanadianyeah, to have the video labelled as “for everyone” is misleading. Take a look at the P1S, it’s still £600ish without the AMS but otherwise it sharers a lot with the X1C
@@TheBHinettyeap and then there’s the a1 even lower price, and there’s a bunch of printers as low as 200-250 which will perform great if you dont mind the slower speeds.
@@mariospanayiotou6644 lmao 200-250 printers are not slow. neptune 4 is $229 and is same speed as X1C (500 mm/s) 3d printing has very cheap entry but expensve to feed your hunger for more filament and newer printers xd
Hi
There’s only 2 printers that I would spend my money on.. Prusa or Bambu.. If you don’t have enough money for one just save up.. Or use a cheaper printer to help you get a better one 💯
gotta love my 900eur unassembled prusa mk3s kit that would print at up to 200mm/s.. Would if I were able to waste 10h of my time to assemble a 3d printer that I know will disappoint me..
prusa sucks.. bambu sucks but less..
@@KewaiiGameri bet you own neither
@@robblly8112 I own both. i only tried bambu. I also own multiple elegoo printers and anycubic. also got a sovol
Elegoo amazing support but sometimes updates will make prints poop themselves
Bambu terrible customer service and i hate the proprietary software/firmware. The X1C is amazing as a printer tho if you don't wanna tinker. The A1 mini is also amazing even more now in discount!!
Sovol was my first printer. I am not sure wether i messed up badly or if the printer is just bad so I can't say much
Anycubic I only tried resin and I am loving the auto leveling but wifi very bad
Elegoo resin printers I only tried saturn 3 ultra i dont have any comments on it to be honest.
Prusa i never tried to be honest. I only have mine laying around unassembled but for the price and the spces it, they are literally robbing people at this point lol. I never ended up returning it tho always told myself I would try to assemble it and the process of returning to prusa specifically is a PITA
I would appreciate that you could be a bit less rude and maybe stop assuming things about people.
I am not impressed my MK3s has much better print quality and fewer issues for 1/2 the price. At least with Pa6 and pa12
ad???
A 3D printer for everyone? It's 1300$!
People routinely pay that for a cell phone...every year! So, a single outlay of $1300 for a printer that should last years isn't too bad. There are cheaper options, though. The Bambu P1S is essentially the same machine, with a plastic enclosure and a different interface, at like half the price. The X1C is just the new, shiny thing on the block, and it's a really well polished printer, so it's a little more expensive.
Do you people literally have ZERO ability to save? Stop buying shit and save for what you want
3-D print a poop shoot catcher.
I want to let new people in 3D printing know this video is sponsored, they’re are better and cheaper printers than bambu.
Let us know for beginners who want to use CF
Like which ones? I have owned a Prusa and built a Voron 2.4r a little over a year ago. We just got a Bambu X1 with AMS at work, which sits next to our Ultimaker. I will have to tell you that the Bambu is the most impressive printer I have seen yet. Cheaper printers... Sure. Ender is cheaper. Better... Yep, that too with a Stratasys or maybe Ultimaker. Cheaper AND better? Nope.
“Better” and cheaper but massively sacrificing convenience and easy entry to printing without as many hassles…
Creality top models, any qidi printer are better and cheaper, customer service works as well 👍🏻
Yes and you have to mantain them always :-D this is super printer for everyone which costs@@michawasiljew6620
look at the junk on his table! Is this where the printer is for? The more industrial filaments? Ok, it can print that, but how are de layer adhesion of these filaments. That kind of info is important if you use these filaments for parts that are going to use. Then the speed of printing has to slow down! No Mark, your info is useless for me
a printer for everyone... $1.5K... well... guess we all are wealthy :) neither a printer for people with not that much money to spend it on a hobby like 3d printing... nor a printer for small homes :) of course a great printer for sure, but title "for everybody" is wrong... sorry ! A1 and A1 mini are more likely to be titled "for everyone"
Yeap even the p1s is closer to “for everyone”
this is a tech channel that poor people watch to feel like they have expensive af devices. what are you expecting? all devices on these channels are flagship products..
Seriously? $1500 is unachievable? Sounds like you are in the wrong career.
Brother if 1.5k is too much for a hobby you need to not do hobbies till you saved up or earn more.
@@ericwheelhouse4371 I own the A1 + AMS that’s a printer for everyone. I just wanted to say that the X1 Carbon for sure is a great printer, but there are cheaper printers available doing a GOOD job too, so they are for everyone. Btw I fly FPV this hobby is not that cheap too 👍😊
$1500 : "FINALLY a 3D Printer for Everyone!" . You need a reality check outside your bubble, mate.
Get the p1p then or quit crying. The premium printers always been mid $1000
Yeah most people spend 1000+ dollars on a new phone and every year with no winning or questioning but when a premium machine that dose what it does complain it cost to much
THE CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM BAMBU LAB IS PITIFUL AND INEPT! 😡
Andyl no need to yell. Follow this man in the white garbs and he will help you go back to bed.
Sounds like I got to you which was the point 😊
Not sure about all the data that Bambu takes from the printer... and all the encrypted data... and the company that it came from. I wont be buying anything from them even though it seems like a great technology, I dont trust it.
Can you elaborate on this? Does it send all my 3d files to them, or am I misunderstanding something here
Bambu labs is the worst company. Stay away from bambu labs.
Just like that? No reason why they're the worst company? Just cause you said?
@@gtroddyyeah I think that’s most people these days they can say random stuff with no evidence and it is supposed to be true
I’ve been watching printers for ten years, still a shit finish.
So your recommending a printer that creates so much waste and allegedly the customer care is poor? I think I'll pass.
Waste is only when you choose to do multicolour and customer service was great for me 🤷♂️ also this printer came out like 2 years ago
Subpar printer owner detected.
There are many ways to reduce waste in Bambu Slicer. It can’t be eliminated, but can be reduced by up to 50%.
Also, you can turn off the calibration and even bed leveling if you don’t want the X1C to do this every time.
@@Pics2FlicksDennis it cant be eliminated with multicolour, but it can be eliminated with single colour. I’ve done it, you can minimize the purge or even set it to 0.
You are basing the judgment on the customer service on allegedly being bad but no experience. The judgment of waste is on default settings which are meant for people to just go and not have to adjust anything and get quality color changes (so there's going to be overkill on purge) if you spend some time testing and adjusting you can cut waste to almost nothing. If you change colors or types on single material systems you have to purge manually which will still cause around the same amount of waste. The convenience and quality are definitely worth the cost for me and bamulab has much more cost effective options as well. You don't have to get one but that doesn't affect the fact that this printer is worth it for a lot of people in the maker space.
Bro you are over 1 year late lmao
Bro it’s called saving up money or waiting till he actually needs an upgrade. Stfu
Very late in the game.
Who cares
