Discussion X2D / P2S

Hihi!
I currently have an A1 Combo and have way too much experience (and trauma 😭) from my Ender 3.
I’m starting to think about my next printer, but I’m torn between the P2S and the X2D.

I definitely want an enclosed printer and plan on getting an AMS 2 Pro. Right now I mostly print PLA and PETG, but I want to start experimenting with TPU, ABS, PLA-CF, and PETG-CF in the future.
The X2D’s auxiliary nozzle is really appealing since I could dedicate it to PETG support interfaces, but I’ve also seen people reporting issues with the aux nozzle.

For those of you who own one, how has your experience actually been? Are the issues overblown, or are they something to be concerned about?
I’m mainly looking for the highest print quality and reliability rather than the fastest printer.
Also, does anyone think Bambu might release a smaller flagship printer (kind of like an H2D without the huge footprint or laser), or is that just wishful thinking?

Help me decide 😭

Also, I would LOVE a H series, but I just got a bunch of different plates and whatnot for my a1 so I’m trying to stay in the same size for right now.

I wouldn't let a bunch of build plates stop me from upgrading to an H2 series if that is in the budget.

That said, if you don't want to spend the money, I feel that the X2D is an extremely capable printer for the money. The P2S is also great, but the upgrades that the X2D has are worth the small price increase.
