    I really have no clue.
    It looks like a cool system, but I also think they might be rushing it to have a reply to the U1.
    Will it work well from the get go?
    How long does it take to change filament and hotend?
    Will mis-alignment stop prints often, as things get worn?

    They also cannot possibly price it lower that the H2D, as it is the same printer with more tech.
    Prusa has also more or less confirmed to be releasing the INDX-system soon, which seems like a smarter system to me.

    If it turns out as polished as Bambu often do and not to expensive (sub 3k), then it will demolish the competition. I’m happy we all get to be a part of the insane development race going on these days.

    Also: if Prusa wants to compete, they have to offer a heated chamber and decent camera as standard. I still can’t fathom how they dared to release the Core One without.
    I’m willing to pay quite a bit more for European made, but not if it feels like a complete rip-off.

      Prusa also needs to fix their x-y build volume even if it breaks upgradeability. The standard has changed and it is hard to go smaller once you are used to the larger size.
