| Extra features | 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. | The Creality Ender 6 stands out in the world of 3D printers with its CoreXY system, offering fast and high-quality prints. With a robust design, it has acrylic panels to protect against air currents, optimizing the printing of materials that require higher temperatures. It features a generic Creality hotend, effective up to ~240°C. Its differentials include 10mm GATES belts, promoting stability at high speeds, and a 360W power supply for reliable performance. The machine also has an intuitive user interface through a 4.3-inch touchscreen. | The Creality Ender 3 S1 printer stands out for its easy assembly and quiet operation. It has automatic bed leveling and a direct drive system, providing high-quality prints. The design is sleek, with flat cables in mesh sleeves and a magnetic bed. The Creality Sprite extruder is lightweight and developed in-house, supporting a maximum nozzle temperature of 260 degrees. It includes a filament run-out sensor and power loss recovery, with a dual Z-axis for greater support and stability. The build plate is flexible steel with PC coating, and the printer supports a wide variety of filaments. |

Conclusion |
| In comparing the three 3D printers presented—the BIQU B1, Creality Ender 6, and Creality Ender 3 S1—several factors can help determine which model offers the best overall value for potential users. The **BIQU B1** is the most affordable option, making it attractive for beginners and those on a budget. It boasts unique features such as a dual Z-axis and RGB lights for monitoring printing progress. However, its manual bed leveling could pose a challenge for inexperienced users. The **Creality Ender 6**, while more expensive, offers a robust design and the advantage of a CoreXY system, enhancing print speed and quality. The enclosed structure is ideal for high-temperature materials, providing better stability during printing. Nonetheless, the manual bed leveling feature remains a limitation for convenience. The **Creality Ender 3 S1** sits between the other two in terms of price and performance. It features automatic bed leveling and a direct drive system for printing a wide range of filaments, appealing to users who prioritize ease of use and versatility in filament choices. Its sleek design and magnetic bed enhance the user experience, but it lacks some advanced characteristics seen in the Ender 6. In conclusion, if budget is the primary concern, the BIQU B1 offers decent performance for the price. For users prioritizing print quality and speed, the Ender 6 shines with its high-performance capabilities despite its higher cost. The Ender 3 S1 strikes a balance between price and performance, making it a strong contender for those who value ease of use and versatility. Ultimately, the best choice depends on individual needs, printing expectations, and budget constraints. |
