The X1C isn’t even in production anymore. The X2C would be the comparable printer to the Core One and the X2C is quite a bit cheaper.
I started with Prusa (MK3), bought a Bambu (X1C), then bought an XL for real multi color printing. The Bambu takes ages to print anything multi color and it produces so much waste it’s sickening. I rarely use it anymore and will never buy a Bambu again based on how they treat their customers. Buts it real hard to not recommend them to people because they are affordable and they do “just work”. I’ve rarely ever had issues with mine.
But it isn't 2-3x...I never said they were price comparable, I noted that they were more expensive, but not multiples of Bambu's pricing!
Better value options exist on the market now, like the Elegoo CC and Qidi's lineup
