The Creality Halot One Plus is a 4K resin 3D printer with a 5” colour touch screen, built in WiFi for remote print monitoring and a decent sized print volume.
Resin printers excel at printing incredibly detailed 3D models. Even tiny prints smaller than your thumb nail look very impressive - something almost impossible with filament based 3D printers.
If you’re new to this technology I’d highly recommend you take a look at my previous video that introduces resin 3D printing. There's a link down below. But in essence these printers use UV light to harden liquid resin into your 3D model, layer by layer and with almost invisible layer lines.
I’ll run through the printers’ features and through a selection of test prints I’ll help you decide if this might be the right printer for you.

![Ikea Sonos Symfonisk review | Wireless speaker lamp | Sound test | Setup inc smart lighting
The Ikea Symfonisk table lamp has a WiFi speaker built in that fully integrates into the multi-room Sonos wireless HiFi system, Airplay 2 for direct WiFi streaming from Apple devices, and it’s a lamp.
It costs £150 or $179, so more pricey than the bookshelf speaker that I reviewed recently that is part of the same Symfonisk range. But it’s still competitively priced compared to other Sonos speakers.
I’ll be comparing it against the cheaper Ikea bookshelf speaker and the more expensive Sonos One and Play:3, to determine if it’s worth the money.
