Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)AnkerMake M5. AnkerMake has since been rebranded eufyMake, and ankermake.com now redirects to eufymake.com[1][2]AnkerMake M5C. AnkerMake has since been rebranded eufyMake[3][2]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)Not documented$399 as stated on eufyMake's own M5C write-up, checked Aug 2026; that page is a buying guide rather than a live cart listing. 3DJake shows the machine sold out and no longer stocked[2][3]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Paired with the cheaper M5C, which is smaller (220x220x250 vs 235x235x250), has a higher flow rate (35 vs 24 mm3/s) but no screen, no camera and no AI recognition. The M5's headline 500 mm/s is a high-speed-mode figure; its default is 250 mm/s[1][3][2]Cheaper counterpart to the M5. It is smaller (220x220x250 vs 235x235x250), has a higher flow rate (35 vs 24 mm3/s), and drops the 4.3-inch screen, the camera and AI recognition entirely — control is via the app plus a single one-click button. The 500 mm/s figure is a fast-mode claim; the default is 250 mm/s[3][2][1]
Market position: superseded? successor announced?3DJake lists the M5 as sold out and no longer stocked. The brand has been folded into eufyMake[1][2]3DJake lists it as sold out and no longer stocked; the brand is now eufyMake[3][2]

Max volumetric flow claimed (mm³/s)24 mm3/s (manufacturer claim)[2]35 mm3/s (manufacturer claim)[2]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameDirect-drive extruder[1]Direct-drive extruder[3]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Not documentedAll-metal hotend[2]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)Not documentedUp to 300 °C (manufacturer claim)[2]
Heater cartridge power (W)60 W heating block, quoted by AnkerMake as reaching 200 °C[1]Not documented
Heated Bed & Surface
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedScratch-resistant PEI-coated magnetic build plate[1]Not documented
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Automatic 7 x 7 levelling; probe technology not named[1]49-point (7 x 7) automatic bed levelling; probe technology not named[2]
Mesh grid size (probe point count — firmware evidence)49 points (7 x 7)[1]49 points[2]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?4.3-inch colour LCD touchscreen[1]None. 3DJake's table records "Printer display: None" and eufyMake confirms there is no screen[3][2]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveWi-Fi and USB-C[1]Wi-Fi; eufyMake also cites Bluetooth for app pairing[3][2]
Camera: built-in / optional? Resolution & framerate (verify — marketing often omits real fps)1080p camera with AI recognition and time-lapse[1][2]None. No camera and no AI recognition on this model[3][2]
Calibration Routines & QoL
Assembly level & time from unbox to first printAssembly kit; AnkerMake quotes about 15 minutes[1]Assembly kit[3]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listNot documentedPLA, TPU, PETG and others; eufyMake does not publish a closed list[2]
Independently Measured Performance
Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers)Print accuracy quoted at 0.1 mm (manufacturer specification, not an independent measurement)[1]Print precision quoted at +/-0.1 mm (manufacturer specification, not an independent measurement)[3][2]

Manufacturer claims, independent measurements, packages and test conditions retain their source wording. FDM linear speed and resin vertical speed use different units and are not directly comparable. Unknown values are marked “Not documented”. Prices and source dates remain historical snapshots; check the linked guide for product details. Differences highlight text, not a universal winner.
