We were supprised to see that Anycubic is launching a new printer, named the Anycubic Photon Mono X2. Looking at its name it should be the successor of the Photon Mono X. But is it actually different and how does it compare to its new Photon M3 series? Let’s find out and dive into the specifications of the printers.

In the table below you can find the differences in specifications between the new Anycubic Photon Mono X2 and the older models. Only some minor differences between the Mono X2 and original Mono X can be found, with a small screen upgrade, giving it a slightly bigger build volume for a slightly smaller pixel size.
