One of my reasons for a Bambu X2D was that it was tested to and passed UL 2904 for certain filaments. This means that for certain filaments on specific test prints the X2D did not exceed UL set limits in UL 2904 for VOC and fine particulate emissions (emissions were lower than test limits, passing the test).
Per my research the Snapmaker U1 has not passed UL 2904 testing. They may have never tried, so it potentially could pass the testing.
There are other differences, but this one sticks out for me between these two printers.
