$Snapmaker U1 Prototype - Time to Back? 🚀 Snapmaker U1 Review – Hands-On With the New Multi-Color CoreXY Tool-Changer (Prototype Tested!) 🔥 Buy the Snapmaker U1 for $849 (limited pricing) https://snapmaker.sjv.io/o42ZYW (affiliate link) I put the Snapmaker U1 prototype through real-world testing — Snapmaker’s brand-new multi-colour CoreXY 3D printer featuring the SnapSwap™ tool-changer system. This video covers speed tests, multi-material printing, filament waste reduction, early software quirks, and how it stacks up against giants like the Prusa XL, Bambu Lab X1/P1/H2, and other modern tool-changing systems. If youre wondering whether to back the U1 on Kickstarter, this review breaks down everything you need to know: print quality, tool-change times, build volume, RFID filament management, Orca Slicer performance, Klipper access, hardware design, enclosure plans, and Snapmaker’s two-year development process. 💥 What You’ll Learn in This Video Full hands-on testing of the Snapmaker U1 prototype Real multi-colour prints using SnapSwap™ tool heads Print speed & acceleration breakdown (300 mm/s, 20k accel) Purge-less tool changing and up to 5× less filament waste How the U1 compares to Prusa XL, Bambu Lab, and Jubilee-style systems Early software issues, firmware updates, and beta-tester feedback How the Kickstarter pricing works and whether its worth backing Accessing Clipper/Moonraker and limitations of the locked-down environment What changes to expect in the production version (Q4 2025 estimated) ❤️ Channel Sponsors 🔧 PCBWay – PCBs, CNC, sheet metal, 3D printing & more https://shorturl.at/c5d7X 🧵 Polymaker Filament – PLA, ABS, ASA, PC, Nylon, CF & specialty materials https://us.polymaker.com/?aff=22 Your support helps make these in-depth reviews possible 🙌 🕒 Video Chapters 0:00 – Intro & what’s new with the U1 0:20 – Prototype limitations & software caveats 1:00 – First prints, failures & software fixes 2:00 – Should you back it on Kickstarter? 2:16 – Returning to the studio – deeper testing 3:00 – Pre-order price & campaign details 3:30 – Specs: speed, acceleration, waste reduction 4:20 – Tool-changer vs purge systems explained 4:55 – PCBWay Sponsor Segment 5:20 – Filament management & RFID 6:00 – Hotend, enclosure plans & internal design 7:00 – Software issues: slicer, touchscreen, feeders 8:00 – Snapmaker’s development process & engineering choices 9:20 – Internal documents, sustainability & modular upgrades 10:00 – Print quality results 11:00 – Comparing to Prusa XL, Jubilee, ProForge 12:00 – Clipper access, Moonraker limitations 13:00 – Live print demo inside Clipper 14:30 – Pros & cons after multiple weeks 15:00 – Kickstarter pricing & early bird info 16:00 – Final verdict & what happens next 🔥 Final Thoughts After several weeks with the prototype, the Snapmaker U1 looks like a genuine contender in the modern tool-changer space — especially at its Kickstarter pricing. Yes, the early software is rough, but the hardware, modularity, and waste-saving approach make this one of the most promising multi-material machines of 2025. If Snapmaker delivers the final polish, this could be a major competitor to the Prusa XL at a fraction of the price. Let me know in the comments what you think of the U1, the Kickstarter model, and whether Snapmaker is truly back in the 3D-printing game.$
