Take advantage of introductory pricing ($469-629) at http://jle.vi/kobras1 It’s been 2.5 years since Bambu Lab shook up the 3D printing industry with the Bambu Lab X1 Carbon, and now, every major brand is stepping up with their own answer. But are these just copycats, or have they actually learned from Bambu’s successes—and their mistakes? At the same time, Bambu Lab is facing some serious controversy, and more and more makers are looking elsewhere for their next 3D printer. So when AnyCubic reached out to sponsor a video about their new Kobra S1 Combo, I asked them to do something different: let me compare it to Bambu Lab instead of just running through a typical overview video. In this video (this isn't a review), I will break down the facts on what makes the AnyCubic Kobra S1 Combo unique? What is AnyCubic doing differently? Could it actually improve on the innovations Bambu brought to the table?
