Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Phrozen Sonic Mini 8K S 7.1" LCD 3D Printer. Manufacturer number 51010040501102[1][2][3]Sovol SV07[4][5]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$270.00 on us.phrozen3d.com, backordered with an end-of-September ETA, checked Aug 2026. The collection page rendered it as unavailable on the same day[3][2]$299 at 3D Printers Online Store but Out of Stock, checked Aug 2026. Sovol's own comparison article quotes $259. No in-stock listing found[5][6]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Phrozen's 7.1-inch line is easy to confuse: the Sonic Mini 8K S ($270) sits beside the older Sonic Mini 8K ($340, sold out) and the 5.5-inch Sonic Mini ($129.99). The 10.1-inch Sonic Mighty family is a different size class entirely. The 8K S is the only one of the group with a single linear rail and a lead screw rather than a ball screw[2][1][3][7]Base of a two-model pair with the SV07 Plus (300x300x350, 600 W MeanWell PSU, 25-point levelling, adds USB Type-C). The SV07 has a 350 W MeanWell PSU. Both are quoted by Sovol at 500 mm/s and 300 °C, so PSU wattage and build volume are the reliable discriminators[6][5][8]
Market position: superseded? successor announced?Not documentedDelisted by Sovol; not present in the current 3D-printer collection. 3DJake shows it sold out and no longer stocked[9][4]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable165 x 72 x 170 mm[1][3]220 x 220 x 250 mm advertised[4][5]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)290 x 290 x 430 mm[1][3]460 x 457 x 625 mm[5]
Net weight (kg)10 kg[1][3]9.8 kg machine weight; 12.9 kg boxed[5]
Frame construction & materialBlack textured housing with a neon-green plastic cover[1]Open frame, supplied as an assembly kit[4]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidOpen-frame MSLA with a UV-blocking plastic cover[1]Open frame; 3DJake records "Heated chamber: No"[4]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)MSLA, single Z axis on one linear rail with a lead screw, straight-lift peel[1][3]Cartesian i3 bedslinger[4]
X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size)One linear rail; lead screw (not a ball screw)[1][3]Not documented
Speed & Acceleration
Max print speed (claimed, mm/s)Not documentedConflicting manufacturer figures: Sovol's own comparison says up to 500 mm/s, 3DJake's feature text says up to 250 mm/s, and the retailer listing gives a 250-500 mm/s range. 500 is the headline claim, 250 the working figure[6][4][5]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameNot documentedAll-metal dual-gear direct drive with a planetary gearbox[4][6]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Not documentedAll-metal hotend to 300 °C[4][6]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)Not documented<=300 °C claimed[4][5][6]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limitNot documented<=100 °C claimed[5]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedNot documentedReversible PEI build plate[4]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Not documentedAutomatic bed levelling over 25 points; probe technology not stated[4]
Mesh grid size (probe point count — firmware evidence)Not documented25 points (manufacturer claim)[4]
Cooling & Air Handling
Part-cooling fan(s): count, size, ducting designNot documentedTriple-fan cooling (Sovol's description; fan sizes and duct design not published)[4][6]
Electronics & Power
PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage)Not documented350 W MeanWell, 24 V, 115/230 V AC input[6][5]
Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto)24 V DC, 2 A[3]Not documented
Total rated power draw48 W maximum system power[3]Not documented
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not named by Phrozen. Native file format .PRZ; compatible slicers CHITUBOX, Lychee and VoxelDance Tango[1][3]Klipper[4][6]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?3.5-inch touch panel (control panel — not the masking LCD, see W1)[3]5-inch touchscreen (Sovol markets it as a "5-inch HD Klipper screen")[4][6]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveUSB only[1][3]Wi-Fi and USB Type-C[4][6][5]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament list405 nm photopolymer resin; no closed compatibility list published[1]PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, wood-filled; Sovol also lists carbon fibre[5][6]
Resin & MSLA
Masking LCD7.1-inch 8K monochrome masking LCD, XY pixel pitch 22 um. Phrozen does not publish the pixel count for this model[1][3]Not documented
Light sourceLinear projection LED module. Wavelength not published for this model[1][3]Not documented
Vertical print speedmm/hMax 80 mm/h (manufacturer claim). Phrozen does not state the layer height or resin type the figure assumes[3]Not documented
Layer height range0.01-0.30 mm[3]Not documented
Release filmFEP film — note this is plain FEP, whereas the Sonic Mighty Revo 14K ships nFEP. No rated life published[3][7]Not documented

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.
