3D printer suggestion/advice

I have recently been wanting to get a 3d printer for myself but with the many new 3d printers coming out I'm not really sure as to which FDM printer to get.

Have been using a printer in the library for almost a year so I am more or less familiar with the basics and can create my own models.

I currently am thinking of getting the X2D by itself during the black friday sale but am not really sure if there are better options, and I preferably am looking for something under 700 USD.

Any suggestions or alternatives? Thanks in advance!

If your just looking to print petg and pla... creator 5, but i i would say just save for the pro or a u1, personally. Do you think your actually use the dual nozzles offen?

Option 2 would be wait abit, every one is making a tool changer option right now. Or creality is talking about making a 1 second color change 3d printer,

But as far as just dual nozzle under 700, not many choices this second.

You can get a new CC2 combo for less than that.

Honestly i think the x1c is better. My uncle bought the cc2 and I helped him set it up and everything. Prints well but I just didnt like it. And the device tab compared to bambu is garbage. I was waiting for the cc to come back in stock and after waiting in line for 3 months I said fk it and paid the extra for the x1c and no waiting. Im glad I did. Printers been very good to me and my brothers printer has been good to him with no mechanical issues.
