All of those "not exciting" qualities are precisely why I love my MK4
@RegularOldDan
"Hot goth girlfriend" is not a phrase I expected to hear used to describe a printer... but it fits the Magneto X at its current state. 😂
@JohnDoe-fk6id
Personally, when I bought my Mk4, I only had two complaints: uneven part cooling, and a lack of usable GPIO, despite having pins available, and the codebase mostly there. This fixes both of those, and I am 100% buying it, because $100 is a whole lot less expensive than the dev time it would have taken me to get there. I fully approve of incremental changes and upgrades.
@Paxton_MonAran
I have to argue that "it just works" IS the standout feature, maybe one that the general public doesn't appreciate as much, but at the end of the day, it's the most important thing, and nobody seems to do that better than Prusa.
@LuisHCVogt
Biblically accurate benchy
@Victorsevink
The MK4s is Debian Stable, The Magneto X is Arch Testing.
@johnsmith-ol9qj
To your point at 11:15, I don't think prusa needs a wow factor, it just is what it is and it's good at it. They have a customer base and they know their product. A big problem with other products is that people are too focused on surface level feelings rather then, "Does the product actually function and continue functioning" the upgrades they do are grannyed in as well and those are positive things.
@weirdoku
I don’t want wow factor, I want a reliable machine that just prints, a machine that I can easily replace parts when needed. My MK3S+ is still going with zero issues since day one, only thing I’ve done to it is put in a revo nozzle and that made it even better for my use.
@BrianDavisDivis
I think the words you are looking for are "the girl next door". The one you are overlooking for first 65 minutes of the movie, but eventually inevitably fall in love with. Because she has zero wow factor but she is sweet and nice and reliable and overall great for life. Just like the MK4. The MK4S is just that, only you realize she is also a supermodel and a marathon winner. :D
@grepmonkey
I would love a video on print appearance (matte vs glossy, etc.) vs print speed/volumetric speed. Being able to have a mental model of what to look for beyond "matte = probably too fast".
@TheDarkPreacher65
The Magneto X is the "hot Goth Girlfriend", the MK4S is the "Childhood Friend girlfriend."
@MMuraseofSandvich
I just need 15000 more Prusameters to get me a MK4S.
@39XenonD
Aaaand Prusa just released a new Video about the MK4S a few minutes after yours went online. Looks like they are adequately confident in their printer in the video, painting a good picture of a product that simply does what it promises. I wish more products would be like this
@chewbone
I literally just finished building my MK4 yesterday. Just checked, and I barely made it into a free voucher for the upgrade kit. Orders on Aug 1 or later should get the voucher.
@stlbullet
The MK4 not being flashy, but being ready out of the box and reliable is exactly what I love about it. I sell products that included 3D printed parts, and having a printer like that allows me to scale up production easily. I still have my speedy P1S for prototyping, but it is nowhere near as reliable as the MK4 in my experience.
@dadjake
7:00 I love the fact that they're bringing the old keypads back, it's genius. Can't wait for people to complain about it on forums and such though, if they've never seen this before
@Venaloid
I'm glad that Prusa went back to the front-mounted part cooling fan. They've been neglecting cooling ever since the Mk3S.
@username9774
I would not talk about a different included nozzle as a main thing, the interesting things would be: gpio pins, IS, NFC, screen upgrade. Bad changes: Injection moulded parts.
@hedsy
I'll buy another prusa because they have great customer service and reliability is top notch.
