Creality has a laser focus on market domination.. and not just the 3D printing market. They're coming for the entire DIY segment. The Falcon 2 Pro is their all new fully-enclosed diode laser cutter/engraver. It's got many of the features of the xTool S1, at a lower price point. But are the cost savings worth it? Or is it missing some crucial features? In this video I compare these two competing offerings, highlighting their similarities and differences.
