**************

Welcome back to Aurora Tech Channel. Today, I am going to review the latest Ender-3 S1 that I recently received from Creality. I would like to thank Creality for sending me the printer to review. I will go through the features of this printer, do a quick assembly walkthrough, do some test prints, and most importantly, I will talk about what I like and what I think this printer can improve on.

I have no plans to do any upgrades on this printer yet, the stock setup is really good. I have many 3D printers, many of which are from Creality. I have an Ender-3, an Ender-3 Pro, a CR6-SE, an Ender-5 Pro, two CR-10S Pro V2 printers, and my new favorite: the Ender-3 S1. It has the best direct extruder from a stock setup, and the print quality is really impressive right out of the box, the hardware configuration and print quality are hard to beat.

So, if you’re considering buying your first 3D printer or if you just have an Ender-3 or other basic machines and want to purchase a mid-range printer that doesn't really need any upgrades, this is an excellent choice.
