The Ender 3 V3 KE I received was missing its rubber pads/feet to protect its base, which I confirmed is supposed to be attached. This caused some wires to get pinched, and an unstable base. I could probably deal with Creality or get ones myself, but it left a bad taste in my mouth from the start.
I ordered the A1 mini last night and am returning the Ender. This is a birthday present for my 10 year old son, I want him to spend more time creating objects rather than troubleshooting the printer.
Active Flow Rate Compensation
The A1 revolutionizes flow control in 3D printing. It utilizes a high-resolution, high-frequency eddy current sensor to measure the pressure in the nozzle. Our algorithm actively compensates the flow rate according to the readings to extrude with accuracy.
The X1C has Lidar.
I expect the X2C will have "Active Flow Rate Compensation"
The P1S is the most dated. (It is better than the A1 slinger for tall print jobs.)
The A1 mini is a rare value that is cheaper with the latest technology.

I'm sure this is obvious for most of you, but for the beginners like me, make sure that you are cutting your filament at a 45 degree angle. The AMS lite system wouldn't take the PLA filament at first, which meant that the printer didn't recognize the AMS system. Once I cut the PLA at an angle, everything worked fine.
I printed benchy and the pocket helicopter in single colors last night, and will attempt a multicolor print this evening.
My son uses Tinkercard to design objects, so I also need to learn how to link Tinkercad with Bambu. I was able to upload the STL file from Tinkercad to MakerWorld, but it looks like I need to create a "Print Profile" in Bambu Studio, which I need to learn about.
I finally placed my order. Looking forward to moving on from my ender 3. I might have preferred an A1 for the ability to top mount the AMS lite, but I found out that it's possible hang it above the A1 mini on a wall or a board, so that will work if I need the space.
You mean November? I did not see a December sale

edit: i bought it, that color fill option is just too cool, dont want to wait until may for the bigger one and will be $600 after tax for me, too much for a first 3d printer for me
