Makes me feel better about not buying Bambu. At the time of their closing off their printers fans claimed it was a technicality in their change to their license and wouldn’t affect anything.
They’re no longer the best in their price ranges. Under $500 there are several enclosed CoreXY that are better than the A1 and even an Anycubic X that’s has a far more advanced print head over the A1.
In the under $1000 category the U1 outclasses everything Bambu while being completely open source.
The “eco system” claim for Bambu is a marketing lie. Any printer lets you download models from any website, including Bambu, and print. Most all printers let you scan the RFID tag on compatible filament to save the time of adding it on the printer’s screen. But other printers like Snapmaker are adding rfid support for all filament brands.
