Despite the rumors and CEO’s interview, I wouldn’t rise my hopes up, yet. In fact, even if BL launches its 2nd gen x1 series (let’s call it “x2” for ease of reference), I’d still stay on the back line for several months (at least) to find out how it really performs based on other people’s reviews. I’d say waiting 10 to 12 months from the launch date would provide enough time to find out how reliable and improved it really is and if it’s worth my money and effort.

Are you sure?
I read about new printers, I’ve seen some new features (automatic leveling, detection of waste or errors…), but none with the power loss function.
A moment ago, I have looked at M5s Pro and Mighty Revo websites, this function isn’t mentioned.
Well the phrozen sonic xl at least does. I’m not sure how it does it, maybe a capacitor charge to allow the plate enough time to rise out of the resin? I can’t recall where I saw the others with it but anyway, the technology is out there.

How is it that “adjustable light intensity” translates into greater print efficiency?
lol… I guess one could argue that by better seeing what is being printed, one could (supposedly) take the timely remediation actions (changing settings) to ensure adequate print quality for the end product, thus increasing printer efficiency… though it’s debatable.
I have read that this is an industrial model, it is not the type of printer that an individual can purchase. It is possible that industrial printers have this feature, but “home” printers not yet. So it would be a big hit if BL created it.
Adjusting the light intensity would be like adjusting the flow rate on an FDM printer. Turn up the light intensity and you can cure the resin faster which means you can decrease the exposure time, but at the potential loss to quality due to light bleed. I’d say being able to increase the print speed would be increasing efficiency.
Yes, that makes perfect sense now. When I saw the Phrozen screenshot above I thought it was still in reference to the earlier discussion about their FDM printer.
Sometimes my speed reading drops too many bits and bytes…
You’re just increasing your reading efficiency

No it wouldn’t. It’s a feature that only a very small percentage of users would find useful. Bambu should stick to what they know and maybe try to improve their customer service before releasing another new printer.
Look like there is a new Printer on the Markt?!
Well, at least a Printer review be someone with a hugh amount of followers how never reviewd a printer at all. And which one, the X1C… as all 2 to 3 weeks someone does…
So the question is, when Bambu Lab continue with the right printers where everyone looks for?
One review after the other. Fare fare away from any 3D printing channel… The first sample video has almost 3.7 Million followers…
Just a other sample on a smaler channel:

I’m impressed with “the 100” printer. It can print a benchy in 3 minutes and 3 seconds.
They’re focused on quality high speed printing and claim they can print objects in 1/12 the time of an ender 3. They claim they have a true print speed of 400mm/sec. Their counter-intuitive breakthrough came from printing the frame in PLA rather than using metal. Apparently the resonance is more predictable, so klipper can better mitigate the effects than with metal.
Unfortunately, even though it’s open source, it’s basically a project which you either self-source or get in a kit. In that sense it’s not direct competition for BBL. If you’re willing to build from scratch, it may be the one for you.
Hi @NeverDie
well nice when I’m retired and have a lot of time - but even then I think that will never happen 
I even wonder where people find the time to get one Elegoo Orange Storm together… I wouldn’t even do it if they would paid me my normal hourly rate.
But I’m very excited about the the announced QIDI Q1 Pro. Hopefully something that can really work through kilograms of fillaments on its own and not a bed slinger who brings more work than what it gets done (since there is enough of this junk on the market…)
What’s the buzz on that one? I haven’t heard anything about it.
As all of us - announced on there website on the 20th
When I look at amazon reviews on that brand of printer, there seem to be a very high number of shills. You can tell by clicking through to see what else the reviewer reviewed, and very often they’ve written only 5 star reviews on anything and everything.

QIDI Extremely good service hotline - strongly mechanically oriented. I always say: QIDI, the Chinese from Quingdao having the mechanics under control but they have problems with wiering and coding. Bambulab are the programmers from Shenzen who have problems when tightening screws
As you also can see in the Makerworld’s terms of use… Royalty free licenses world wide, non-exclusiv publications rights - purly focused on publishing. Fear of what could happen, only focusing on printer damages - But product liability coverage for designers, Limitations of liability for “users” or lets say publisher… may not a single word for the smallest restriction on limitation of liability for product desingers. But direct requesting free publication rights for the e.g. USA and Canada, where there is hardly to get any product liability insurance or even just liability insurance who will cover something or anything… So really the whole world from the programmer’s point of view. Well, they have to know that themselves, they’re old enough and it’s none of my business and maybe I’m wrong too.
