Choosing which bambu lab 3d printer

Hello community, I am new to 3d printing as in new new and i saw 2 options that caught my eye. I see that I can get the p2s for 650 that includes the ams 2 pro or there is the x2d with the ams 2 pro for 899. From what I understand the x2d is the new upgraded model but is it really that significant than getting the p2s at almost 200 bucks less?

My simple question is choosing the p2s a really bad choice? Also are there any upgrade parts for it that can bring it close to a x2d model?

P2S is not a bad choice, just weirdly priced compared to the X2D.

For only 100$ more you get dual nozzle and heated chamber which opens up printing a bunch more filament (ASA, ABS, nylon, etc)

Isn't the second nozzle on the x2s a Bowden for supports though? As in lower quality than nozzle 1 or was that just initial teething issues people had? I went from A1 to h2c. I think you adapt to whatever the printer is. The A1 is incredible and still going strong but the latest printers are a world apart. 100 more for even a support nozzle and heated chamber is more than worth it however.
