I was excited to see Mingda’s sequel to the Magician X, a printer I absolutely adored last year. The Magician X2 fixed a few rookie flaws and now sports a PEI coated flex plate for easy print removal, more cooling and easier to maintain parts.
It still has the things I really liked, such as a full sized SD card and the option to use a USB stick for file transfers, plus a simple menu layout and wonderfully grippy dual extruder. The X2 got a fashionable makeover, with a snazzy blue logo and glowing LED light that doubles as a heat gauge.
