This thing has a TINY print bed, when even 220^3 is small these days, and 240/250 or 300/330 are preferred.
(And it's "Eddy" not "Teddy," as in eddy current.(EDIT: original title listed "Teddy scan," I'm not just trying to be funny))
Enclosed = It's ready for more technical materials where offgassing is a concern
Core XY = this one's less of an everyday concern, but more of a design concern. There's less design consideration needed without a moving bed (translates to faster print speeds). I include this because it is part of the consideration; however 99% of the prints out there already take the bedslinger into account (or print slow enough to not need design considerations)
350c max hotend temp = 50c more than the A1 hotend, meaning more headroom for technical materials
Voron-Lite = The sovol heavily borrows (steals) Voron designs; so you aren't just opting for open source software, but ALSO hardware. The proprietary parts on the Sovol are there for budget reasons; but you should be able to find cheap Voron parts to replace them with.
Why you would want to choose the A1 Mini over this:
Drop in parts = Sure, a bambu part only fits a bambu, but you know it'll work with your printer
Drop in expansions = AMS is plug and play; the Sovol/Voron solution doesn't have a "unbox and print" solution
Bigger build plate = and she said size doesn't matter
There's probably more that I'm not thinking of, and regardless the bambu fanboys will crucify me over something anyway

Is there a compelling reason to chose this Sovol over the A1 Mini other than wanting to avoid BambuLab software restrictions?

OrcaSlicer is one of the more popular choices as it's derived from several other slicers and tends to incorporate a lot of the most popular features.
