Creality has officially launched the Hi 3D printer, featuring a folding touchscreen, 500 mm/s speeds, and optional Creality Filament System compatibility, starting at $369.

Creality has officially released its new Hi 3D printer, a bed slinger that builds on the Ender 3 V3 but introduces a range of new features, including native compatibility with the Creality Filament System (CFS) in the Hi Combo bundle.

The standalone Hi printer is priced at $369, while the Hi Combo, which includes the CFS, comes in at $519. This marks a $70 and $50 increase, respectively, from the prices announced back in January.

The Hi boasts claimed top speeds of 500 mm/s with an acceleration of 12,000 mm/s², making it one of the faster printers in its class. It also includes a folding touchscreen, a built-in camera, and an integrated extruder designed to reduce clogs. A buzzer alerts users when prints are paused or completed, and the printer features a fast-heating print bed, comparable to the Centauri Carbon’s performance.

For those opting for the Hi Combo, the CFS allows for multi-material printing, with the ability to connect up to four CFS units for printing with up to 16 materials. However, the combo only includes one CFS unit by default.

Since its initial announcement earlier this year, not much has changed in terms of the printer’s features, but the updated pricing and additional details make it clear that Creality is positioning the Hi as a competitive option in the 3D printing market.

With its self-calibrating capabilities and modern design, the Creality Hi is likely to attract both hobbyists and professionals looking for a reliable and fast 3D printing solution
