Bambu Lab P1S review

An enclosed Bambu Lab printer stating 500 mm/s and 20,000 mm/s² of acceleration, with a material list that names ABS and ASA as ideal.

Why the enclosure matters

ABS and ASA warp when the air around a print cools it unevenly. The P1S closes that air in, and that is the practical gap between it and an open printer such as the A1.

A rare, useful material list

Most listings say a printer handles many filaments. This one sorts them: ideal, capable, not recommended. It is the most honest part of the page, and it should decide your purchase more than the speed claim.

Compared with the combo

The same printer is sold with an AMS unit as the P1S Combo. If you will never print in color, this version saves that cost.

Where it earns its place, and where it falls short

Questions makers ask before buying

Can the P1S print carbon fiber filament?

The listing puts carbon and glass fiber in its not-recommended group. PLA, PETG, TPU, PVA, PET, ABS and ASA are its ideal group, with PA and PC as capable.

Is 500 mm/s the speed of a real print?

No. It is a motion limit. The speed of a good part depends on the material and the model.

Our score

8.1/ 10

The sensible step up when you need engineering filaments. The enclosed body is what you pay for, not the speed figure.
