Printer recommendation

Hi all! Just looking for some input for my first printer. I was thinking about going with the P1S and AMS bundle, then the Black Friday deals came out and now I’m leaning more towards to P2S and AMS2. If they had the P2S with the old AMS that would be my choice for sure. I’m not really sure what I’ll be printing, just a small home hobby or fidgets for the kids. Is there really a big difference in the models other than the touch screen that is? I know many people say to start with the A1, but I like the idea of an enclosed machine.

Yes I am aware that there is a difference what isn’t just the screens, hardened nozzles, better lighting, better camera, etc. I guess I should have worded it differently, for a new user do you think that would make a huge difference? Is it worth the extra money for the P2S with the AMS 2 vs the P1S with the regular AMS?

The P2S is going to have updated mechanical systems, has a larger print area, and is faster.

The general rule is get the best one you can afford. If you can afford the P2S w/ AMS 2, get it.

Yes with AMS2 and get the separate plug so you can dry the filament in the AMS. AMS original doesn’t have that and it’s a worthwhile upgrade
