A couple of weeks ago, you had basically convinced me to get the Photon Mono 2 as a budget printer. Now you've convinced me to get this one. Looking forward to you overturning it all again in a fortnight. The detail on this is astonishing for such a cheap machine. I'm kind of blown away by how home resin printing has changed in the last couple of years.

[@DisgruntledPigumon]

Elegoo has some announcements on June 1st.

[@k3rmitPL]

Great review. I am really amazed how Phrozen managed to one up the regular 8k and make it so much cheaper. PS. I almost skipped yours and Dennys' videos because of the drama in the thumbnails ;)

Been looking into resin printers for minis, and your channel has been super informative for helping me feel informed as I go through my decision process.

[@hohhan1978]

Fun fact about USB placement. Puting it in front is always more expensive! Its becose manufacturers need to add cost and labour to instal USB extender, when on back thay litteraly just using what is already in printers motherboard. It is a real cost cutting and not a "smart placement"

[@bill72pa]

The motherboard is custom for this machine. They could easily locate the USB in the front of they wanted to. I do plenty of pcba design layouts in the electronics industry.

[@hohhan1978]

@@bill72pa Nope its not custom. Just classic Chitu board. If they will place it in front it will be on the way of light source. I disassembled couple of them it wont fit there with standart board. And custom board will also make it more expensive.

[@Neogothamite]

Hi great review!!! Quick question, every time it finishes a print it returns to the top of the rail and the dripping resin splashes on the inside of the lid. So my question is wouldn’t those resin drops fall into the y axis or probably freeze the motor if they manage to get inside and get cured during a print? Or create bumps? It so how is that avoidable can it be set to not reach the top?

[@Hungry_Bert]

I like that it's cheaper than most resin printers, seriously makes me consider getting into resin printing. Which would allow me to print some custom pieces for an awesome space marine chapter idea I have. Also, love the retro lego theme. So much nostalgia 😍

[@hopperfish]

absolutly love the crispness of the detail, just got into this awesome hobby, bought myself a saturn 2 8k and loving it

[@Garage_Hammer13]

I’ve been looking to dip my toe in the printer market but haven’t got a clue where to start. This has helped massively. 😊

[@TheMagicHampster]

I love the change of color on the lid and the fact they give you sand paper to smooth the build plate if you want to.

[@nst1nct]

Very nice detail, with some nice quality of life improvements as well! Wish I'd gotten in on this at the preorder price, but still a great deal at $100 more. Incredible the quality possible now for less than $400.

[@andymeenanvideos]

Looks like a Phrozen Sonic Mini 8kS will be my 1st 3D printer thanks to your incredibly detailed & informative review...much appreciated.

[@robertgilmore8339]

Great review....as usual! I bought the Anycubic Photon M3 Premium 8k mainly because of your review of it and because I need the build volume...and I'm very happy with what I'm getting. I don't see the necessity for a 22micron machine yet. Keep up what you're doing!

[@V3ntu97]

I was already looking to buy the mini 8k so this will definitely be my next printer. Great review as always!

[@MrGiuGuz]

Grate video, thank you at first.. If I can ask a question I would like to know if the lights power is the same between the two printers. I just have had one 8ks and I would like to try some test prints starting with the same settings from the previous 8k. Thank you once more, grate job! ;O)

[@wombat_models]

Wow - love the result you can get from this unit!

[@rhammitt88]

This is an awesome video. I've been wanting a Phrozen for a while and now I feel like I can finally afford one!

[@andyjmc01]

I knew that colour scheme looked familiar! If the usb location is a problem, would a usb extender cable not fix it super quick? Genuine question, what’s the biggest model this could print in one go?

[@thealmightypadfoot189]

Man you unlocked a memory with those Lego sets, they were so cool! Love that there is a screen protector included as standard, had to scrape cured resin off my Anycubic Photon screen once and it was a nightmare 😂

This looks amazing. The details are so crisp.

[@johneutube1975]

Hi. Great review! You mentioned voxel artifacts. Did you do any AA testing? I currently use my sm8k for jewelry casting so I’m looking for the least amount of course. Thanks for the video!

[@FauxHammer]

Yeah, at the end when I do the aa tests. Looking at Denny’s Wang video it no longer has the issue of No AA on X axis you get true AA in X and Y now

[@jamiegibson7729]

[@MWSculpts]

Great review thank you. Think I may have found my next printer 🙌

[@johnnyraczynski]

Great review as always! As you said in the video, the biggest advantage of Phrozen is pixel size - and I think I like it the most in it. We all love the details in our minis, so having a gear that is so good at keeping them during the print is a miracle :D Regarding the colour of lid and comparison to lego - we want more lego in reviews!! But in my opinion it has this Necron-y vibe.... :p

[@kanaku]

I've got a Photon mono and I like that this printer has a great increase in resolution compared. Also love the installed screen protector.

[@MadZaxx]

Great review and I learned a couple things as well. Cheers!

[@minky_tv1807]

Another great thorough review! Seems like an amazing (starter) printer price/quality wise.

[@dmax9324]

Thanks for the great video. I'm really impressed by your investigation into the 0.2 sec exposure time. So does this mean that each layer at that speed has slightly more exposure at the earlier render points for every layer depending on where the part is on the screen?

[@FauxHammer]

I suppose it does yeah. At about 0.05s per layer pixel to pixel

[@johnjenkins8471]

This was super helpful. I’m in the market for a 3D printer. I really liked that printed “test” card which showed how different sized bits would print. Super helpful!

[@johnjenkins8471]

Hi, i can see the layer height of 0,02 mm. Friend of mine recomend me 0,05 and also in the vídeo of vogman i saw he put the configuration of 0,05. Will i get better detail with 0.02? Will the resin of anycubic craftsman be able to do this detail? Thank you

[@J0shM1lls]

Are you by chance going to revisit this printer with the new firmware V3214 that supposedly fixes inconsistent exposure times? Thanks.

[@FauxHammer]

Probably in the future, but I’m so busy now. I will definitely be using Phrozen products more frequently.

[@TzarChelo]

What Resin should be used with this printer? Some economic resin please. Can you recomend me one from anycubic, elego and phrozen. Thank you!

[@7nineofspades5]

I've been running my old Mars 2 Pro for so long now that I was looking for something to upgrade to, this is looking like a winner to me. I have thought about getting a bigger machine, but honestly I think a smaller build plate keeps my impulses in check so I don't print too much. I am very much looking forward to the faster print times and higher resolution.

[@fussiesdoodles6555]

Looks interesting tempting me for my first foray into the resin side if 3d printing. I love the Blacktron look it takes me back.

[@BBTactics]

@fauxhammer so where are you going to put it on your top 10?

This printer looks amazing. Printing minis in 8k is now very easy and cheap.

[@corax885]

Hi Ross, I am looking right now for my first printer... My budget is around 300-400 and my space is limited, so would you rate this printer over the mars 4 ultra (with FEP instead of the ACF film)

[@FauxHammer]

I would rate this over the 4 ultra yeah. But you may be better with a Saturn 2/3 - comparably similar in print quality with a larger build area at a similar price

[@DeadCloud03]

Thank you for the amazing and honest review. I'm looking to buy my 1st printer and will probably get this one. Also, thank you for the flashback to my childhood.

[@FauxHammer]

Thanks so much

[@billyframe2]

That level of detail is insane for the price point.

[@KingOfDeadGames]

From your review, I like how cleanly it prints miniatures! The fact that you can blow up a well-crafted file and it looks like it was made for that scale is outstanding. The price is also amazing for the resolution and detail it is capable of. 10/10 would comment again.

[@jamess1658]

[@tonystarkitl]

so why did you pour resin in that way? from the top of the plate? i couldnt find the answer :C

The green is much more transparent. I like that a lot. Curious to how well it blocks UV with the lighter color. I am looking for my first 3D printer so still learning and may be wrong about this.

[@greytemplar8313]

Dennys Wang tested this, and it blocks out 100%

With the launch discount and the extra 10%off I'm wondering if I should order 2. Probably not needed but price got me thinking

Since I'm just looking to get into printing minis, the Sonic Mini 8kS looks like the right balance of quality and price. Your review is excellent.

What slicer did you use? Lychee and Chitubox don't have updates yet.

[@FauxHammer]

They sent me a custom beta version with it. It was Chitubox. Tango is another included option

I’ve never 3D printed but I’m dying to get started and this looks perfect for making Minis and scatter terrain

[@rdgd1rd]

Why do you pour it on build plate? And which video is it that you explain why you pour it on plate and not vat

[@JackDespero]

Would you choose the sonic mini 8k s over the saturn 2 8k, both around the same price, 370ish? The 8ks is 22 microns, the saturn 2 8k is 28, but it has a larger volume. From your video, I understood that there is really not much difference between 28 and 22 microns.

[@FauxHammer]

Nah, I’d prefer the larger build plate

[@6591OZZY]

I've been wanting to get a resin printer for a long time but never had the spare cash to get one. Phrozen would have been the printer I'd choose and the quality of the prints is the most exciting thing for me. When researching them I found the people using phrozen were getting the best results!

[@FlesHBoX]

Something I'm really surprised I don't hear people talking about is that this printer also moves away from a Chitu board, which is awesome!

[@StevenJohnson108]

Looks like a good option from your review but id like to know how it compares to your top print of 2023 just s few weeks ago, the GKTwo. Is this printer dethroning that one already?

They are different things, that is the better all round printer. This one has marginally better detail. If you need ultimate detail, this one If you want an all round easy to use printer, that one.

its kinda cool thats theres so much competition in the 3d printing space that a reiteration of an excising product with maybe a couple of upgrades and few minor downgrades as a trade off can be sold at a more affordable price because the limits keep being pushed for a better product.

[@gordonrobb]

Coming to this a little late. Considering replacing my old original Phrozen printer with this one. Out of curiosity at say 1s exposure, how many seconds is that per layer in total? Trying to figure out what the print time would be for a model of a certain size, but I don’t really know how long each layer actually takes into total (hope that question makes sense ) :)

[@FauxHammer]

Yeah it does. But it would be a guesstimate based on speed and so many variables Why not add this printer in your slicer and slice a model. It will give you an estimate there?

[@gordonrobb]

@@FauxHammer I don’t have anything installed. I was juts looking for a guess. It’s been years since I printed anything so can’t remember what all the other settings mean. Looking at your settings are the 2 that are set to 6 second both things that happen in a single layer (for example). Can I say roughly 13 seconds (including 1 second exposure) per layer? Or is that going to be way off? That is for the prompt response btw :)

[@neilsutcliffe5825]

I wonder if a 3D printer would work on my canal boat. I think an FDM would be fine as I have 12V direct from battery, but the SLA. I imagine the resin would slosh around. Is this deffo bad?

[@robclarke1098]

I bought the Mono x2 2 weeks ago and am now thinking if I had just waited a bit longer, I could have bought one of these. For a 'budget' model, the 8k S looks stunning. I really can't believe that the price is so low. Its definitely going to worry Anycubic and Elegoo.

[@rmfberry261]

This is a very exciting printer. As I said on Facebook I was skeptical of this printer due to the singular linear rail. Other then the a couple issues with the software(bed lifting after print and exposure time) this thing is doing everything I would be after at a great price.

[@noviceartisan]

I'm assuming that when it goes to 0.2s per layer at that thickness, it's using PWM to pulse the light on/off at a frequency that will equate to 0.2seconds, even if it appears to be on for 1sec?

[@FauxHammer]

No, it’s confirmed by manufacturer

Came very close to buying a Uniformation GK 2 to upgrade from my old Mars 2 Pro (which has been great). I was always temped by the original Phrozen Mini 8K but couldn't justify the price. I don't really need a larger printer right now and space is at a premium. This retains the higher print resolution of the Mini 8K but without the AA bug and at a much lower price. I do wish the power and USB were on the front. Just waiting to see the details of the new Anycubic M5 and M5s next week which apparently will have a 12k screen and a larger print vol but I suspect I'll be pre-ordering the Mini 8K S.

[@risauce4915]

I'm just getting into 3d resin printing and all of your recent videos are making it so hard to decide! It seems as though this printer would simply be superior to the Mars 3 Pro in every way? However comparing it to the Saturn 8k and other 10-inch build plates is where I'm now stuck... more build volume or cheaper and same quality? :shrug:

I thought it’s a nobrainer because the m5s is 12K but the resolution is weird: X19mu, Y24mu. The Sonic is 8K with much smaller build size but X and Y are even - 22mu. It’s hard to choose. What do you guys think?

The mini 8K S seems like the best choice for me, smooth surfaces, amazing quality, perfect print size for what I want to do with it (have even more armies!!!!). But in addition to this comment which may allow me to win one 🤞, I have a question. I saw your video on the GKTwo and was wondering if a hotbox actually works. Have you ever had the opportunity to try a hotbox or other similar device ?

I haven’t used a hot box, I was going to, but I have a weird space issue in my hobby room and would need a box of different sizes for different printers. Thermalvatband is a decent choice

Comparing 90s Lego sets to 3d Printers is a need i didn´t knew i had

Being able to print high quality minis with lower exposure times (=faster!) seems like the best thing about this printer. I'd love printing more stuff quicker.
