How It Scores
Pros
- +$129 is the absolute floor for resin printing
- +WiFi at this price is genuinely surprising
- +4K resolution is enough to see if resin is your thing
Cons
- −118x66mm build plate: one mini at a time, if they're small
- −4K resolution is dated next to 9K and 12K competitors
- −Long-term reliability is unknown; smaller community means fewer fixes documented online
