| Property | QIDI X-Smart 3COREXY | Sovol SV07BEDSLINGER |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | QIDI | Sovol |
| Class | COREXY | BEDSLINGER |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | QIDI X-Smart 3, listed in QIDI navigation as X-Smart3[1][2] | Sovol SV07[3][4] |
| Release date (announcement and actual shipping) | Not published by QIDI on the pages checked (Aug 2026)[1][2] | Not documented |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $399 on QIDI's official US page, which routes purchases to its AliExpress and Amazon stores; checked Aug 2026[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[4][5] |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | Entry model of the 3-series. Unlike the X-Plus 3 and X-Max 3 it has no heated chamber, a 300 °C rather than 350 °C hotend, a brass rather than copper-alloy/hardened-steel nozzle head, and no Ethernet. It shares the Cortex-A53 board with them, so control-board specs must not be read as shared print specs[1][6][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[5][4][8] |
| Market position: superseded? successor announced? | Not documented | Delisted by Sovol; not present in the current 3D-printer collection. 3DJake shows it sold out and no longer stocked[9][3] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 175 x 180 x 170 mm advertised[1][2] | 220 x 220 x 250 mm advertised[3][4] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 370 x 362 x 397 mm[1] | 460 x 457 x 625 mm[4] |
| Net weight (kg) | 10.5 kg[1] | 9.8 kg machine weight; 12.9 kg boxed[4] |
| Frame construction & material | QIDI publishes no frame-material breakdown for this model[1] | Open frame, supplied as an assembly kit[3] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | No heated chamber. 3DJake's table records "Heated chamber: No"; QIDI does not describe an enclosure for this model[1] | Open frame; 3DJake records "Heated chamber: No"[3] |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | CoreXY[1][2] | Cartesian i3 bedslinger[3] |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | <=500 mm/s (manufacturer claim)[1][2] | Conflicting 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[5][3][4] |
| Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²) | 20,000 mm/s2 (manufacturer claim)[2] | Not documented |
| Max volumetric flow claimed (mm³/s) | 30 mm3/s extruder flow (manufacturer claim)[1][2] | Not documented |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Direct-drive extruder, single, 1.75 mm filament[1][2] | All-metal dual-gear direct drive with a planetary gearbox[3][5] |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?) | Brass nozzle head. 0.4 mm stock, 0.2/0.6/0.8 mm optional[1][2] | All-metal hotend to 300 °C[3][5] |
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | <=300 °C claimed[1][2] | <=300 °C claimed[3][4][5] |
| Stock nozzle material (brass / hardened steel / plated copper / composite tip) | Brass[1] | Not documented |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | <=120 °C claimed[1][2] | <=100 °C claimed[4] |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | Double-sided flexible magnetic RF plate[1] | Reversible PEI build plate[3] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | 16-point automatic bed levelling per QIDI's US page; probe technology not named[2] | Automatic bed levelling over 25 points; probe technology not stated[3] |
| Mesh grid size (probe point count — firmware evidence) | 16 points (QIDI's US page). Not verified against firmware[2] | 25 points (manufacturer claim)[3] |
| Filament Handling & Detection | ||
| Filament runout sensor (type, location) | Filament detection fitted; type and location not published[1] | Not documented |
| Cooling & Air Handling | ||
| Part-cooling fan(s): count, size, ducting design | Not documented | Triple-fan cooling (Sovol's description; fan sizes and duct design not published)[3][5] |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded Linux | Cortex-A53 64-bit at 1.5 GHz, 1 GB DDR3, 8 GB eMMC[1] | Not documented |
| PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage) | Not documented | 350 W MeanWell, 24 V, 115/230 V AC input[5][4] |
| Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto) | 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz[1] | Not documented |
| Total rated power draw | 350 W rated[1] | Not documented |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Klipper[2] | Klipper[3][5] |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 4.3-inch touchscreen[2] | 5-inch touchscreen (Sovol markets it as a "5-inch HD Klipper screen")[3][5] |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | Wi-Fi and USB. No Ethernet listed for this model[1][2] | Wi-Fi and USB Type-C[3][5][4] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | Not documented | PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, wood-filled; Sovol also lists carbon fibre[4][5] |
| Reliability, Support & Ecosystem | ||
| Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes) | 1-year coverage (QIDI standard store terms)[10] | 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.
