Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Creality Ender-3 V3 Plus, marketed as a "Plus-sized CoreXZ 3D Printer"[1]Phrozen Sonic Mighty Revo 14K 10.1" LCD 3D Printer[2][3][4]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$339.00 on store.creality.com, Aug 2026[5]$680.00 on us.phrozen3d.com but unavailable — backordered, shipping when back in stock, checked Aug 2026. 3DJake also shows it sold out and delisted[4][3][2]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Larger sibling of the Ender-3 V3 on the same CoreXZ platform: 300 x 300 x 330 mm against 220 x 220 x 250 mm, with dual Y-axis motors and support rods added to carry the bigger bed. Not to be confused with the bed-slinger SE and KE, which are not CoreXZ[1][6]The Sonic Mighty family spans several resolutions at the same 10.1-inch size and very different prices: Mighty 4K $149, Mighty 8K $410, Mighty 12K $329, Mighty Revo 14K $680, Mighty 16K $720. A "Sonic Mighty" spec box is meaningless without the resolution suffix. Sources also disagree on this model's own numbers: Phrozen gives machine dimensions 353 x 345 x 517 mm and XY 16.8 x 24.8 um, while 3DJake gives 228 x 337 x 516 mm and XY 16.8 x 24 um. Phrozen's own figures are used here. 8 GB onboard storage[3][2][4]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable300 x 300 x 330 mm[1]223 x 126 x 235 mm[2][4]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)410 x 445 x 577 mm[1]353 x 345 x 517 mm per Phrozen. 3DJake publishes 228 x 337 x 516 mm, which cannot be right for a machine with a 223 mm-wide build area[4][2]
Net weight (kg)Not documented18 kg[4]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidOpen frame, no enclosure[1]Open-frame MSLA with a UV-blocking cover[2]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)CoreXZ - Creality states the X and Z axes are rigged together so two high-torque motors work in unison; the bed moves in Y on dual motors and support rods[1]MSLA, single Z axis on dual linear guide rails with a ball screw, straight-lift peel[2][4]
Y-axis guide typeY axis driven by two 500 mN.m motors running on two linear rods[1]Not documented
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashNot documentedDual linear guide rails with a ball screw[2][4]
Belts (type, width, e.g. Gates?)XZ timing belts are tensioned automatically, which Creality offers as the fix for belt slip and jams[1]Not documented
Speed & Acceleration
Max print speed (claimed, mm/s)600 mm/s max printing speed (Creality Lab claim)[1]Not documented
Recommended/typical print speed300 mm/s typical printing speed (Creality Lab figure, stated in the same footnote as the 600 mm/s claim)[1]Not documented
Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²)20000 mm/s2 max acceleration (Creality Lab claim)[1]Not documented
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameDirect-drive extruder kit that Creality markets as clog-free[1]Not documented
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Quick-swap tri-metal nozzle[1]Not documented
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Not documentedAutomatic levelling[2]
Cooling & Air Handling
Part-cooling fan(s): count, size, ducting designTwo part-cooling fans[1]Not documented
Electronics & Power
Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto)Not documentedAC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz[4]
Total rated power drawNot documented240 W maximum system power[4]
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not documentedNot named. File formats accepted are .ctb and .prz[2][4]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?Not documented5-inch touch panel (control panel — not the masking LCD, see W1)[2][4]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveNot documentedUSB and Wi-Fi[2][4]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listNot documented405 nm photopolymer resin; no closed compatibility list published[2]
Reliability, Support & Ecosystem
Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes)Creality's US store states "Up to 12-Month Warranty", a 14-day return and refund window and "Lifetime Customer Support" on its printer product pages. The "up to" wording means the term is not uniform across parts[7]Not documented
Resin & MSLA
Masking LCDNot documented10.1-inch 14K monochrome masking LCD, 13,320 x 5,120 px, XY pixel pitch 16.8 x 24.8 um per Phrozen (3DJake writes 16.8 x 24 um)[4][2]
Light sourceNot documentedLinear projection LED module. Wavelength not published[4]
Layer height rangeNot documented0.01-0.30 mm[4]
Release filmNot documentednFEP film supplied. No rated life published[2][4]
Resin vat & feedingNot documentedBuilt-in resin heater fitted; Phrozen publishes no setpoint, no vat capacity, no auto-refill and no level sensing for this model[2][4]
Fume extractionNot documentedPlug-in air purifier supplied with the machine[2]
Throughputlayers/hNot documentedAvg. 450 layers/h on Phrozen's own product page — the only throughput figure Phrozen publishes for this model, and it publishes no mm/h at all. 3DJake states 400 layers/h for the same machine; Phrozen's own figure is used here, as elsewhere in this entry. Manufacturer claim, not a measurement, and neither source states the layer height assumed. W4 is deliberately empty: the layer range is 0.01-0.30 mm, so any mm/h conversion would be invented rather than measured[4][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.
