My assumption is this is an AI generated image, and not actual prints agree AI generated the STLs, correct?
If you're techie, and I assume most of the people on Lemmy's HA community are, you can flash new firmware. That said, it looks like a hassle for the later models...
Looks pretty great despite the flushing problem. I think I like the red color where "too much" white is behind it. Wonder if you could set the whole model to be white Infill or at least some white directly behind the red...
What's your setup? Bambu with AMS?
€400 and under, you're in creality's bread and butter zone. I will say that if you go with creality that half of your hobby will be tinkering and not necessarily the things you are printing--but maybe that's a positive?
I recently went from creality to a bambu lab x1c (way above your budget) and the difference is astounding. It's the closest thing to set it and forget it I've seen so far. Also the first time I've felt like I'm truly living in the future lol.
I've heard positive things about Bambu's P1P--their current entry level printer (roughly $600 plus tax and shipping). However, hacking and tinkering is out of the question as the firmware is closed source.
