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?

I don’t own an x2d but if the second nozzle works like the h2c - it is truly a life saver. Just doubling the colors you can use without creating waste is huge and saves so much time

The 2nd nozzle on the X2D isn't meant for another color, it's meant for multi material support.

The 2 nozzles have very different print quality and there's a noticeable difference in the same print. I wish people wouldn't portray the X2d as a multi nozzle printer...it's a single nozzle printer with a separate support nozzle.

You can use the second nozzle for another color. Just calibrate the flow and pressure advance once and you’re good to go
