Today, we are going to check out the Creality CR-10 Smart Pro, which is the upgraded version of the CR-10 Smart, and this one is quite good. You might have seen my CR-10 Smart review, where I wasn’t really happy with the state of the printer, and it was hard…

Thank you very much for your efforts and useful Information you deliver to all of us who are searching for the right 3d printer.  
May I ask you please, which large 3d printer is better, Creality CR-10 Smart Pro or the Flsun v400 / Speedracer. Because you wrote that cr10 smart pro is probably the best large 3d printer in 2022 but it has only 4 stars in printing aspect on your rating, the flsun v400 has almost 5.  
Could you please recommend me the best large 3d printer up to 1000 dollars? 🙈😃

When the article was written, the V400 wasn’t a thing.  
But the V400 is quite good, so I don’t think you can go wrong with it. It’s much faster than the CR-10 Smart PRo.

At the moment, I think the Bambu Lab X1.  
It just works over and over and over again.

It’s probably worth adding B&H Photo and Video to the “check the price at” list of links. They sell mostly Creality printers at a slightly lower than average price, sometimes a very good price.

This appears to be a great printer BUT creality ARE NOT SUPPORTING IT IN 2024 so if you end up with a Bricked board (seems a common occurrence when updating I have noticed) you are kinda stuck for a replacement board cause Creality tell me (in april 2024) that they have no intention of making any more boards for this printer which is madness!! SO if you are thinking of getting one BE WARNED-the replacement boards are no longer in production!

I have told Creality they owe it to the community to either support it like they do the Ender 3 and Original CR10 etc OR come up with a replacement board that can be used from a different printer like the CR6 which is a very Similar board.
