Probably less maintenance with a few already included features that you don't have to upgrade to. Ender 3 are for tinkering.
Probably... based on what, a built in camera?
I got no plans to purchase this. I already got an Ender 5 Pro setup to work consistently after adding an auto leveler. I hated going through fixing up the firmware since it wouldn't give the correct locations to test the auto-leveling initially.
sounds legit!

Buy something cheaper like an Ender, learn about it and if it's a hobby you want. Once you decide, you can use the Ender to print your parts for something like a Voron and the left over cash for some of the components. Or just use the pip program on Voron discord and just go straight for a Voron (though I would not recommend that unless you're fairly familiar with 3d printing).
As a standard FDM printer, it's definitely on the high side, but if they used premium components, it's prob worth the bucks if you can afford it (and the model proves itself)
Features not in the Ender 3 Pro:
All metal hot end / heater block: needed for strong engineering grade filaments like PC and nylon.
Direct drive extruder: needed for soft filaments like rubbery TPU.
Auto bed leveling: meant to reduce 1st layer problems and improve adhesion
PEI bed: better adhesion and more reliability
Heavy machined aluminum frame: for better rigidity so better details and small features in the print
250mm/s? If it's true, that's 3-5x faster than most bed slingers.
WiFi: I use this all the time.
Bit bigger build volume: maybe matters, maybe not. Most people build small stuff.
15 minute assembly vs. a big bag of parts.

That's super impressive.
A better comparison is M5 at $700 vs. Ender 3 S1 Pro at ~$500. If the 250mm/s is real then maybe the S1 Pro with the Creality Sonic Pad and Klipper (an added $150.)
Me? I like printing and have gotten tired of having to tinker all the time to get decent prints. I also want speed so my short BF list includes FLSun V400 (~$850); Bambu x1 ($1000); and *maybe* the AnkerMate M5 ($700 here) if more positive reviews come out. It's probably obvious from the list, I want fast also.
OTOH, a BF deal on the Ender 3 Pro S1 has a lot of merit if maybe a bit slower.
Good Luck!
