It will be a significant speed upgrade...but the quality is only a little better. It's one of the things holding me back. Not sure I really need to upgrade yet.
If you want to print with high temp materials the enclosure is a must, so it's a huge change there, if all you do is PLA, PETG then it's not as critical. But I still think the Bambu P1S bundle is the better deal, similar sized printer, similar motion system and ease of use, and you get the 4 spool AMS which is a game changer even if you don't print multicolor. I want to love the prusa stuff but it's just too expensive
I went out of my way to purchase prusa the first time. With these new developments, I probably won't.
Yeah, the enclosure is a driving factor as I'd like to branch out to different materials. The AMS seems pretty awesome as well since I've been wanting to do multi color for a while now.
I usually keep 1 or 2 PLAs in there, one tough material like ASA and one silly fun one. Let's me just select the right mats for the job and hit print and I rarely have to change out a spool unless I'm doing something colorful. It's awesome
