Want to get a 3d printer but can't decide between Kobra X or A1 Combo
Hi, I wanted to get a 3d printer for a while and was pretty set on the A1 Combo for the time I was able to afford a 300-400€ 3d printer, but saw the Kobra X being pretty good aswell and now I am oscillating between the two. I know that the A1 is just better out of the box but I've heard of some shady practices regarding the firmware and what I'd hate the most is a company being anti-consumer with firmware updates (similar story to Apple, imo) but at the same time, of course, the Kobra X is pretty new and I don't know how reliable it is.
What I am looking at in a printer is both safety and serviceability once something breaks down, aswell as not having to tinker with it too much each print. I don't mind tinkering with it, but if it gets too repetitive for each print it starts to be annoying. What I'll mostly print is probably geeky decorations related to video games and movies, aswell as some accessories to hold my controllers and other things.
If anyone could share their experiences with the printers, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
