| Software notes | The printer works with Anycubic Slicer Next, derived from OrcaSlicer and optimized for the Anycubic ecosystem; it supports multi-plate management and object skipping during printing. Remote control and real-time monitoring are available through the Anycubic app (iOS and Android), connecting via LAN or cloud. The proprietary firmware is not currently open source; native Klipper compatibility is not supported. | The official slicer is Bambu Studio, available for macOS, Windows, and Linux. The printer also accepts standard G-code exported from third-party slicers such as PrusaSlicer, SuperSlicer, and Cura, though certain advanced Bambu-specific features — including RFID-based filament detection and some automatic calibration modes — are only available within Bambu Studio. Remote control is handled via the Bambu Handy mobile app and desktop app; push notifications require cloud connectivity. |

Which one to choose
Choose Kobra S1 Combo if…
you value max nozzle temperature and max bed temperature.
Choose P2S if…
Choose the P2S if price is the priority: €519 vs €749 for the Kobra S1 Combo, which costs 44% more. It also has a slightly larger work area (256×256 mm vs 250×250 mm) and is lighter and more compact (14.9 kg vs 18 kg).
