The LiDAR sensor doesn't work well with textured plates.
The Bambu Lab X1 Carbon is a high-speed CoreXY 3D printer with a 256x256x256mm build volume, speeds up to 500mm/s, and Lidar auto-calibration, plus support for up to 16 filaments at once for multi-color prints.
From current evidence, Bambu Lab X1 Carbon is a better fit for enthusiasts wanting speed and multi-color capability than for budget-focused buyers. It delivers fast, high-quality prints with an automated AMS and reliable setup, making it easy to produce complex parts. However, the LiDAR struggles on textured plates, and the higher price—especially after a recent $300 hike—pushes some to the cheaper P1S.
