Maybe stating which model is a competitor for which series (A1, P1, X1) could be good info?

I don’t think I can make the call of which printer is targeting which market segment, but I’d hope the “tech” and “base price” columns would allow someone to make their own guesses.

what’s your opinion on WonderMaker ZR? Fair to add to the list?

I’ll add it for completeness. My opinion would be that it looks like a concept rendering at this stage and I don’t think they have solved the engineering problems involved in a tool changer. It’s basically like Bambu Lab, except no DJI engineering alums and launching their product at the concept stage instead of working on it for a couple years first.
