The popular Elegoo Saturn, which was Elegoo’s first large resin 3D printer, was succeeded by the Saturn S, which brings with it a few improvements over its predecessor. However, increasing the build capacity from 192 millimeters by 120 millimeters by 200 millimeters to 196 millimeters by 122 millimeters by 210 millimeters and enhancing the print resolution from 50 microns to 48 are, at best, minor modifications.
It may be argued that the installation of an activated carbon filter is the sole discernible improvement made to the Saturn S. The filter, which can be found tucked away in the back and is connected through USB, lessens the effect of the unpleasant and potentially hazardous gases that are produced by resin 3D printing.

Where to get ELEGOO Saturn S Mono Resin 3D Printer?
In general, the Saturn S maintains the same exterior design and driving characteristics as its predecessor. The original Saturn won us over because to its user-friendliness, dependability, and a plethora of convenience features that were available at the time. All of these features have been incorporated into the newly designed Saturn S, making it just as pleasurable to drive and simple to operate as before. However, competition from other manufacturers has closed the gap with Elegoo, and the extra features that were once a major selling point for the first-generation Saturn console are no longer as appealing. Its competitors have even surpassed it in certain respects at this point.
The Saturn S presently sells for around more than its predecessor, which has been discontinued. Given the addition of the air filter and the various other minor upgrades, we consider that to be a reasonable price. The Saturn S boldly takes the seat of its older brethren as one of the most economical bigger resin 3D printers. If you are searching for an inexpensive resin 3D printer with no extra features, the Saturn S is an excellent choice. If, on the other hand, you are interested in larger build volumes, higher resolutions, and a bit more refinement in your resin 3D printing experience, it is possible that looking into some of the printers offered by the competition is the best course of action for you.
