When Bambu Lab announced the P1P, everyone was shocked. This brand new company announced a 3D printer that could print ultra-fast, with excellent accuracy for less than most of the best 3D printers on the market at the time. It was, to employ an overused idiom, game-changing.

Bambu Lab recently lowered the price of the P1P to $599 and no one really understood why. The original price of $699 was excellent value, so there seemed no reason to lower it. Now we know it was so the company could release a new printer at the $699 price point, the P1S.
