I have single color version of this and I am very happy about it but have sour feelings after being promised AMS but never receiving it. The quality of prints is very good and with dryer the quality is nearly top notch.

But again, I'm still unhappy about not getting AMS mod
Edit: I stand corrected. There is AMS mod now for original CC

Not sure what you mean, they released the $55 multi-filament CANVAS for the original CC not long ago, did you not see that? Delayed release sure but they compensated with good price.

However, the loyalty coupons they handed out ($80 off $450 for CC2) never stacked with any promotions which was a bit bs, since anyone can buy the CC2 for the same price anyway now ($370). The filament coupon or warranty were the better choice.

The cc1 has an option for multicolor now. And I think it's normally only ~$55

Added edit note my original comment. Honestly, I stopped checking for it earlier this year and assumed it was never going to happen, but I stand corrected. Going to do my research on it now and possibly order one if everything is well

I don't have the P2S but I do have the Centauri Carbon 2 and P1S side by side (photo attached).

For almost $200 less, I'd easily go with the CC2, and probably even if it were just $50 less.

If you plan on printing with more than 4 colors within one print, the CC2 caps out at 4. Bambu has the ability to send prints through the handy app all though I personally rarely use it. The CC2 does have an app where you can control things like temperature and speed but at times there are connection issues which will likely be resolved with a firmware update. If you ever plan on printing with any abrasive or engineering materials the CC2 comes with a hardened nozzle while you would need to upgrade the nozzle on the P1S. CC2 nozzle can reach 350°C while bambu reaches 300°C. Imo the P1S is more esthetically pleasing.

For a first printer Bambu is a bit easier to use and I'd say more plug and play.

The CC2 print quality is at least equal to the P1S and on side by side prints of the same item, prints a bit faster for me.

A big one for me is that while I haven't used either companies support much, Elegoos support was more helpful and responsive than Bambu.

Both are great printers and printers I would recommend.

If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer.

I was thinking about getting another printer. Already have the ad5x. Not unhappy with it. Software and connection is a bit flaky but I can work around that. For ~$240 I think it's quite good for a multi color printer.

Was debating if this is worth an extra $130.
Neither of them have a dryer built in so that's moot.

I don't own the Flashforge so can't give any 1st hand comparisons. Off the bat the Elegoo is enclosed has a camera and has a larger bed size.
This guy does a comparison video if you are interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhgVmnMxVwE

I know its a little janky, buy you can print an internal spool holder for the CC line, and use the ambient chamber heaters as a dryer.
Havent seen one that works with canvas yet, but it has been a bit since I looked.

Is this good for a newbie to 3D printing but have 20 years of laser engraving experience and 40 years in technology in general.

Was looking at the Flashforge 5M to wet my feet with at $134 but don't want to buy that and within a few months find I should have bought a multicolor 3D printer like this.

If you are going to go multi-color, wait for the price to come down on the multi-toolhead printers, otherwise they are just spectacularly wasteful in printing multiple colors. The AD5m is a great little printer and for 134 bucks it's a no-brainer purchase. It will get you started and used to tweaking settings, etc so that when you're finally ready to go multi-color you've got the experience for it. Also, if you buy the AD5m at $134 bucks, you will easily be able to sell it on FB marketplace and recoup almost 100% of your outlay when you are ready to upgrade. The one thing multi-color printers is good for is switching spools when you run out of filament (if you have several spools of the same color, it will start using the second spool when the first runs out) and for just having more colors staged instead of needing to load/unload filament.
