The ComMarker Omni X is a fully enclosed UV laser engraver that works on metal, wood, acrylic, leather, stone, glass, and can even engrave 3D sculptures inside solid crystal blocks. In this review I put the 6W version through a full month of real-world testing, covering everything from internal glass engraving and metal oxidation colors to wood cutting and leather work. I'll also walk you through the LiDAR autofocus, dual lens system, ComMarker Studio software, and Lightburn compatibility, plus one hardware issue I ran into and how ComMarker handled it. If you're considering a UV laser and want to know if the Omni X justifies the price, this is the video for you.
