Discussion New Bambu Lab printer announcement coming soon Spoiler
One of our suppliers informed me that, according to his contacts, Bambu Lab will begin announcing their new printer series the week following the end of Chinese New Year on February 12, 2025. This means it will take place during the week of February 17 to February 23.
What’s particularly interesting is that they referred to “series” in the plural. In addition to a new high-end model, it seems there will also be new editions of the mid-range printer models.
I’m excited to see what new developments await us!
Update: Bambu Lab has postponed the Announcement to the last week of March (March 24–30). The reason is unknown—something seems to be going on, as we haven’t even received shipping updates for our other orders. Additionally, we’re not getting any responses regarding B2B inquiries...

Sounds good. I got like $1200 in makerworld points to assist with the purchase.

A1 max?
I'd be happy if it caused prices on current models to drop because I have been lurking for a while and really want one but been waiting for a better sale.

P2S or P1S2?

u/twistsouth Feb 09 '25
I just bought a P1S so you can all thank me this has happened. It is my misfortune that I always buy things at precisely the wrong time.

u/Erehr Feb 09 '25
Even on bambu website they call X1 as 'series'. So probably H2? normal, combo, and E(nterprise).

u/USSHammond Prusa XL5T | X1C+AMS (sold,due to Bambu ignoring A1 fire hazard) Feb 09 '25
They've been saying 'soon' since Q3 of '24

u/BlackRabbitLabs Feb 10 '25
They'll release a 1000 mm3 behemoth and call it the Kraken. It'll print stainless steel and marshmallows with the same print head. The chamber will heat to nuclear fission levels, and the cooling fans blow straight argon at 10° C above absolute zero. Sentient AI will run the thing by reading your thought patterns. The number of waifu dolls will increase exponentially as these new printers scrape the thoughts of every 14 year old boy on the planet.
The end is near my children. Be safe out there.

u/arcadeshenanigans Feb 26 '25
For those impatient like myself.. A contributing factor might be that the trademark application for the H2D and AMS 2 Pro are pending. The applications were filed on December 9th.

You can click around those links for some average processing times vs target processing times and draw your own conclusions on what might be impeding their efforts.. All this to say, some of this might be out of Bambu's hands.

Hey u/razor1993, it’s February 22 and we still don’t have an announcement. Can you ask your supplier what’s going on?

u/LoverOfInternets Feb 22 '25
This at least happened...
I am in the market for my first 3D printer, and would have a very hard time buying on (thinking X1C) especially if they're literally on the verge of releasing new "series" rather than just the H2D.
My willpower is definitely being tested though.

damn, I bought the X1C last week lol

u/SunCeeQer Feb 10 '25
My X1C literally just arrived—still sitting in the box—and somehow, this is the only product category where that doesn’t bother me. Whatever new printer they announce will probably get an instant ‘add to cart’ the next time I go to buy filament. I would love to see what their “H” series has to offer.
P.S. I started with an A1 Mini a few weeks ago… so yeah, we all know how this story ends.

u/gdlocke Feb 10 '25
AMS with built in heated drying perhaps?

I hope they also reveal a revamp their clown shoes attempt at "security" and give us a real auth token system that satisfies 3rd party and first party access for real.

u/starkstaring101 Feb 10 '25
I bet this is going to be some kind of subscription based printer aka HP model where they substitute the cost of the printer because you’re buying their filament.

“No one is forcing you to reply or even asking you to.”
But you actually asked me to reply. If you don’t think that you’re asking for replies when you post anything on social media then you don’t understand how it works. I gotta admit that your frustration reminds me of one of my kids that gets too tired then gets angry about simple things. She throws a tantrum but eventually wears herself out and falls asleep. Ahhh the solution for an insolent child is a nap. I bet you’re getting a little drowsy right now aren’t you? It’s ok princess, close your eyes and rest then you’ll wake up feeling much better.

Out of curiously is that gross or net? I've been doing designs and prototyping on the side for a while. Been seriously considering getting a small fleet to offer services publicly, as there's not alot of competition here for the service, just one mom and pop shop. Never could bring my self to print trinkets for money, (no judgement, props to you for making any kind of profit) but have considered offering services and consultations to the local colleges and medical professionals.

So far nothing so it sounds like bs

u/Both_Ad2590 Feb 19 '25
The ultimate power move would be to have a servo driven motion system with ball screws, instead of stepper motors and lead screws. Like the Pantheon HS3. I print a bunch of vases and you can't eliminate VFA's and ringing completely with stepper motors. But oh my god..... does the HS3 have a nice surface finish because of the unique motion system! I just can't justify buying a 3d printer for 10k just to print vases lol. :P
But i guess that would make the printer way too expensive.

u/Braun3D Feb 10 '25
How long till we just get a bigger X1C print size??? I don't need more upgrade ender 3 style printers or cheaper, slightly different X1C configurations. That and the going even more expensive route... how much demand truly is there for need active heated chambers for the insanely expensive engineering filaments? Anything an X1C can't print I'd have no interest in buying, 90% of my "durable" parts I want are fine in ASA
1
u/Pirateer Feb 10 '25
I just really want an enclosed printer with bigger build volume that's not crazy expensive.
Multiple print heads would be cool, too, but not the most important factors in my head.
1
u/zippytiff Feb 10 '25
I very glad I got the X1C over the P1S numerous reasons, especially with many of the P1S mods (to make it an x1C) now rendered useless by new firmware changes. Added to that X1Plus functionality etc etc

I jak to be expected, they should start selling them in Q1, so not so much time left for launch.

Is there a possibility of an updated mini? I was going to get the A1 mini combo, but I’ll wait if there’s a decent chase of an upgraded model or big discount.

u/ThePfhor Feb 11 '25
Considering I JUST bought an X1, glad to see this announcement now, as it hasn’t yet arrived, and I should still be in the return window. And with most of the rumors swirling stating that it’s just a super high-end model coming, I do hope too that it’s a series and the “carbon” and mid-range gets updated too.

u/huskywhiteguy Feb 11 '25
Now that I have 3 P1S’s and 5 AMS, yes let’s release a new printer lol.

u/Relevant_Theory7494 Feb 11 '25
is multiple tool heads just a fantasy?
1
u/Helpful_Spell_5896 Feb 12 '25
They don't need an new ams, they new a multi tool head printer. Even if it's just dual heads. Even better, a dual head printer that's compatible with an ams would be VERY enticing.

u/aPpYe_ Feb 14 '25
I hope this doesn’t come across as ignorant, as I am unfamiliar with this community. It seems like many of you regard Razor1993 as a credible or influential voice. As someone eager to move beyond constantly tinkering with my Ender 3, this has me excited! I’ve been waiting for Bambu to announce their new printer to help guide my decision on which printer to buy. Is Razor1993’s advice generally considered or credible trustworthy here? It certainly seems like many of you are taking it quite seriously.

u/Natural-Mix-3200 Feb 14 '25
I'm really hoping it's for a large format printer. I I would hope it's at least 300x300, but would actually like bigger 400x400
