| 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 Original Prusa MK4 stands out with automatic first-layer calibration via Loadcell sensor, high-speed enabled by Input Shaper and Nextruder for precise prints. It includes quick-change nozzles, customizable UI, and Ethernet/Wi-Fi connectivity. It supports a wide range of materials, from PLA to flexibles. Equipped with a 32-bit xBuddy mainboard and precise stepper motors, it offers exceptional print quality, enhanced security, and remote printing options via Prusa Connect. | The Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro stands out for its advanced features, including pre-installed Klipper firmware, a dual-gear direct extruder with a 5.2:1 ratio, a high-temperature nozzle (up to 300°C), a flexible magnetic PEI platform, efficient cooling fans, and a 121-point auto-leveling system. The printer also features a 4.3-inch touchscreen interface, dual linear bars on the X and Y axes, and a segmented heated bed for energy savings. |
