Lots of people raised this issue on Reddit, Facebook etc, and Elegoo pretty much said too bad.
Hard for me to trust initial releases after that, especially when a lot of "reviews" thus far are from paid YouTubers.
Just my 2 cents.

Which things? Dryers or 3d printers in general?
If this printer is as good as the specs say it is, it is an AMAZING price.
The question, of course, is, is it as consistent and reliable as a P1S? It's a preorder and nobody knows until people get it in the wild and spend months using them.

Meanwhile, my P1S has 3310 hours printing with minimal issues and my X1C is at 5387.
There's a lot of printers out there that look good on paper, but utterly fail to deliver.
Will that be the case on this? Well, that's the gamble. That's my entire point.
If they can deliver P1S quality for $300 (preorder, I'm gonna guess future cost is $350 or $400) that puts ENORMOUS pressure on Bambu to both lower prices and stop trying to make the wall on their garden even higher.
I'll disagree on the enclosure. For one, as people get into it more, they may want to print materials that benefit from an enclosure. But also, as we learn more about the off-gasing and nanoparticles given off by printing and how those affect us, an enclosure can keep some of that inside so a small filter can trap them. Just like resin safety is important, I'm really considering filtration part of FDM safety/PPE for the future.

It's only says pre order because they don't have enough stock. That is the normal price, it was released for normal sale last week but sold out so they call it a pre.order due to not having stock. The price is the retail price. It's just selling allot because of the quality for the price is amazing
