Extra features The QIDI Q1 Pro 3D printer stands out for its Core XY structure and heating chambers that reach up to 60ºC, ideal for advanced materials such as ABS and Nylon. It features Klipper firmware, an automatic leveling system, a high-flow extruder with a double metal nozzle and a hotend that reaches 350ºC. It offers connectivity via Wi-Fi, USB and Ethernet, as well as a 1080p camera for remote monitoring and an intuitive touchscreen for easy operation. The BIQU B1 is an advanced 3D printer with a silent 32-bit BTT SKR V1.4 motherboard and ARM Cortex-M3 CPU, offering DIY interfaces (I2C, SPI, WiFi) and dual Z-axis. Its dual BTT B1 TFT35 V3.0 operating system allows real-time monitoring and multiple printing modes, including G-code visualization effects. It stands out for its BIQU SSS (Super Spring Steel), ensuring easy model adhesion and simplified removal, with the possibility of using it on both sides. It includes a filament sensor, automatically pausing printing in case of filament breakage. The multicolored RGB lights integrated into the hotend allow you to view the printing status even at night. Additional notes include the need for a BIQU-specific Type-C cable and extra interfaces for smart filament sensor and BL Touch.

Conclusion

In conclusion, when comparing the QIDI Q1 Pro and the BIQU B1 3D printers, the QIDI Q1 Pro emerges as a more advanced option, particularly suited for users looking for high-performance features and versatility in printing materials. Its enclosed design and superior maximum printing capabilities—such as higher temperature thresholds and faster speeds—enhance its usability, especially with more demanding filaments like ABS and Nylon. The automatic bed leveling and comprehensive connectivity options further position it as a robust choice for both professionals and serious hobbyists.

Conversely, the BIQU B1 offers a solid entry point into the world of 3D printing, especially for those who prioritize affordability and ease of use. While it has fewer advanced features, such as manual bed leveling and a less connected experience, it remains capable of producing quality prints with a range of standard materials.

Ultimately, the choice will depend on the user's specific needs. Those willing to invest more for premium performance and features should opt for the QIDI Q1 Pro, while budget-conscious individuals looking for a reliable, straightforward printing experience may find the BIQU B1 sufficient for their purposes.
