The Verdict
If you have more budget and want to print more types of filament with this machine, you can choose the Ender 3 S1 pro. The all-metal hot-end will satisfy the more demanding needs of high-temperature printing, such as ABS and nylon.
If you consider the cost performance, Ender 3 S1 is actually enough. PLA, ABS, TPU and PETG materials can meet your daily printing requirements. And it does perform very well.
If you require an upgrade in print volume, then the Ender 3 S1 Plus shall undoubtedly be your only go-to solution. Plus the touchscreen and 9 languages support will make your operations way easier than then Ender 3 S1. The only pain in the ass is that you have to wait till August.
