P1s vs p2s differences are quite a bit more than just which AMS is included.
Just the differences:
Hardware & Print Head
Hotend Swap: P2S has toolless quick-swap system; P1S requires screwdriver and some reaching and caution.
Nozzle & Extruder Material: P2S comes with a hardened steel nozzle and hardened steel gears; P1S comes with a stainless steel nozzle and steel gears. Minor upgrades that could be purchased for P1s, around $50
Extruder Drive: P2S utilizes a high-precision PMSM servo; P1S uses a standard stepper motor extruder.
Motion Belts: P2S is equipped with wider 9mm GT2 belts; P1S utilizes 6mm GT2 belts. Less stretch potential.
Filament Cutter: P2S uses a rear-deployed cutting mechanism; P1S uses a front-lever mechanical cutter. Less water waste, maybe likely easier maintenance
Chamber & Thermal Regulation
Bed Temperature: P2S maximum heatbed temperature of 110°C; P1S maximum of 100°C.
Ventilation: P2S incorporates an adaptive system with auto-adjusting circulation flaps and cold-air intake vents; P1S relies on passive ventilation and a basic auxiliary fan. Can be significant for some filaments.
Filtration: P2S accommodates a larger activated carbon air filter than the P1S. Not significant.
Sensors: P2S includes an integrated door status sensor; P1S lacks a door open/close sensor.
Camera & Smart Monitoring
Camera: P2S features a 1080p high-frame-rate camera stream; P1S uses a low-frame-rate 720p camera. Important for some people.
AI Features: P2S provides local NPU-powered AI detection for spaghetti, clogs, and build-plate QR codes; P1S uses baseline remote monitoring. Could be huge win, identifying a failure on a long print
Body & Accessories
Lighting: P2S integrates dual internal LED strip lights; P1S has a single low-powered internal light. Significant of attempt to live monitor or video monitor. P1s lighting is less than ideal but can be upgraded.
Feet: P2S includes built-in anti-vibration rubber feet; P1S ships with standard hard feet.
Ecosystem: P2S natively powers and dry-circulates the AMS 2 Pro system via standard cables; P1S requires a dedicated external power adapter to use any automated drying modules. Matters only if attaching AMS2 to P1s, as that would require separate power supply / plug.
Someone compared P1s or P2s against Snapmaker U1. Not really a 1:1 comparison. U1 is open frame (less dust protection is more maintenance. U1 overestimates its speed by 20%+, and lacks the compatability with more complex and engineered filaments. U1 may excel in simple prints with basic filaments, and many switches between colors. P2s (andP1s) have broader compatibility with more filament types and will excel at speed and print quality for single color prints.
Budget always matters. If someones budget only allows P1s and not P2s, there should be no hesitation on the P1s. It is an excellent machine and meets the needs for most. For a heavy user with the budget, the small improvements on the p2s are well worth the price increase.
Comparing against Bambu Labs multi head models like X2D is more complicated. Highter complexity, calibration, and maintenance are part of the higher feature set, and may not be for a beginning user. One of the best parts about the bambu p1s and p2s is they are as plug and play as any 3d printer can be. That's where I would recommend most people start. If you outgrow that, then you might actually need 2 printers and can buy whatever newest revision of si m the dual head model is released 2 years from now.
Makerworld making the search, slicer, and print all in one click is really the biggest advantage. I've printed way, way more due to this convenience than I ever would have with other printers. The Handy app is more limited than Bambu Studio but being able to search, click, print while at work is a game changer like you said.

Multi-tool head is definitely the way forward for multicolor but for me, the Makerworld integration and zero tinkering with settings has been invaluable.
Also, the P1S will lose bugs/features support about 1.5-2 years earlier than a P2S and the P2S is $140 more. Personally that matters to me, your preference may vary.

There's something to be said for understand how the machine works and what factors into different problems when things fail.

The main criticism is that when parts break, they're expensive compared to others since it's more module-based. Plenty of 3rd party manufacturers though for wear-parts.
Coming from an Ender with manual bed leveling, I suppose I'm biased and have a better understanding of potential printer issues but with the help of youtube/reddit/AI, I find it hard to believe a newbie wouldn't be able to fix any problems pretty easily.

i had the AMS communication board on my almost 4yr old giving intermittent connections... obviously didn't know this was the issue, error was intermittent loss of communication with the AMS. i went through the troubleshooting guide, grabbed my DMM and checked all the pin/pin resistances stated in the instructions until i found the culprit. ordered a new board, followed the replacement instructions and i was up and running again.
documentation was far better and more accessible than any other tool or piece of electronics that i have in my house or use for any of my professional work, and from the vendor.
your point is nonsense... coming from the early days of FDM and learning entirely too much about keeping a printer up and running happy, i'm glad that a company has pushed the industry this far into an actual controlled and documented solution.
if all you OpenSores folks had your way, we'd still be living with crazy expensive Prusa bed slingers and the rest of us buying Creality from LightInTheBox or some other equally shady site.
Now we've been using the lil guy far more than I ever expected. It paid for itself when I needed a special socket adapter to change my cars headlights. If you go down the path of lego bricks OMG the savings.
