Extra features	The Ender 5 Plus offers a large print volume (350x350x400 mm) and fast assembly. It includes a BLTouch sensor, but with range limitations. It stands out for its dimensional accuracy, although it requires adjustments to the slicer settings. Despite the noise, its integrated design saves space, and includes features such as a filament sensor and power resumption. Ideal for large projects, it requires refinement in the settings for high-quality prints.	The Halot Mage stands out with its easy-to-operate, space-saving “MageArch” hinged lid that filters 99.89% of UV light. It includes an integrated air purifier with a large, efficient activated carbon filter that is ideal for absorbing resin odors. Its ultra-stable Z-axis with dual linear rails ensures larger, more accurate prints with minimal wobble. Plus, it features a robust tempered glass LCD protector for durability and protection against impacts and resin spills.	Creality’s Ender 7 printer offers remarkable print speeds, utilizing CoreXY kinematics for precise and fast movement. With a 250x250x300mm build area, dual direct extruder, and custom hotend, the Ender 7 is capable of printing at high speeds, although quality may suffer on smaller prints. Assembly is relatively straightforward, but the machine is noisy and can get hot. Its true speed potential is most noticeable on larger prints, where it outperforms its competitors.

Conclusion

In comparing the three Creality 3D printers—the Ender 5 Plus, Halot Mage, and Ender 7—several key factors come into play, leading to distinct strengths and weaknesses across models. Starting with the **Ender 5 Plus**, it offers the largest print volume, making it ideal for users engaged in extensive projects. Its features include a BLTouch sensor and power loss recovery, though it requires adjustments for optimal slicer settings. However, it struggles with noise levels and presents a lower cost-benefit ratio compared to its competitors. In contrast, the **Halot Mage** shines in its recent design and user-friendly features, including an innovative air purifier which makes it particularly suitable for resin printing. Its compact size and robust stability contribute to higher print precision. It boasts a high performance rating, reflecting its reliability and ease of use. Users favoring lower noise and better odors management may find the Halot Mage particularly appealing despite its smaller print volume. The **Ender 7** is notable for its speed and advanced kinematics, which allow rapid printing with commendable dimensional accuracy. While it excels in larger prints, it tends to be noisy and less favorable for smaller projects, leading to potential quality trade-offs. Its overall performance and ease of assembly receive moderate ratings, reflecting a solid balance between speed and functionality. In summary, if print volume and feature set are your primary concerns, the Ender 5 Plus is a compelling choice for larger projects. Alternatively, for ease of use and performance in a smaller package, the Halot Mage stands out, especially for those sensitive to printing odors. Finally, for those who prioritize speed and efficiency, the Ender 7 delivers impressive performance at the cost of certain print qualities. Ultimately, the best choice hinges on specific user needs and preferences in relation to price and capabilities.
