New Bambu Lab Printers: P3C, H3C, X2D Pro and S1 Scanner (Tracker)

Some links on this page are affiliate links. If you buy through one, Planet 3DP earns a small commission at no extra cost to you. It never changes what we recommend. How this works.

The next new Bambu Lab printer is the H3C, a tool changer that Bambu Lab says is coming on November 3 at 9:00 AM Eastern. Its first 3D scanner, the S1, is due the same month. Four more names are on file at the FCC: the P3C, the X2D Pro, the AMS 3H and the AMS 3P.

This tracker keeps three things apart. What Bambu Lab has said on its own pages. What is only an FCC filing. And what nobody knows yet, which today includes every price and every spec.

If you’re shopping now, our best 3D printers guide covers the machines on sale today, and Bambu’s Black Friday sale starts on October 27. The answer to wait or buy is near the end.

Where things stand
H3C
A tool changer 3D printer. Bambu’s date is November 3, 9:00 AM Eastern, which is 6:00 AM Pacific.
S1
Bambu’s first 3D scanner. “Coming in November”, with no day given.
P3C and X2D Pro
FCC grants dated September 11 and 15. Bambu Lab hasn’t announced either one.
AMS 3H and AMS 3P
FCC grants dated September 21. Not announced.
Prices
None announced for anything on this page.
Black Friday
Bambu’s US sale runs October 27 to December 1, so the H3C date falls inside it.

From Bambu Lab’s own pages and the FCC’s equipment records, both read on October 26, 2026.

Every new Bambu Lab printer on file, and where it stands

One row per name. The middle column is only what Bambu Lab has published itself.

Bambu Lab’s H3C and S1 pages and the FCC’s equipment authorization records, read October 26, 2026. The FCC log below gives each FCC ID and links the record.

What Bambu announced

Announced as of October 26, 2026
H3C
A date and a time, November 3 at 9:00 AM Eastern, with a countdown and an email sign up on its page.
S1
A month, November 2026, and nothing more.
Everything else
No price, spec or ship date for any machine on this page.
Next update
November 3, from Bambu Lab’s own launch pages.

This is the section that changes on November 3. When Bambu publishes the H3C’s price, specs and shipping date, they go here, each one linked to Bambu’s own page, on this same address.

Bambu Lab H3C: what’s confirmed

Bambu Lab’s own description is one sentence. It calls the H3C a tool changer 3D printer of its next generation, built to make printing in more than one material faster and more reliable, and says it is coming on November 3. The banner on Bambu Lab’s US home page gives the time as 9:00 AM EST.

That’s the whole official record. The H3C page has no price, no build volume, no tool count and no ship date. It doesn’t say whether you can order on November 3 or only see it.

By name it follows the H2 family. Bambu sells the H2D, the H2S and the H2C today. Nick owns an H2C, and his H2C maintenance guide covers how that machine is looked after. How the H3C compares with any of them is a question for November 3.

The FCC granted a certification for a product marketed as “H3C” on September 11, 2026, under Bambu Lab’s grantee code, 2A6J8.

Bambu Lab S1 3D scanner

The S1 is new ground for Bambu Lab. Its S1 page calls it “our first 3D scanner” and promises the ease of use Bambu owners know with professional level precision. It is “coming in November”. There’s no day, no price and no spec sheet yet.

The FCC granted a certification for a product marketed as “Bambu Lab S1” on September 22, 2026. Its grant lists 5 GHz radio bands only.

Nick hasn’t seen the S1. He has scanned with a consumer scanner on camera, the Revopoint Miraco, and what he found there is the test to look for in S1 reviews.

The FCC filing log

Products with a radio go through FCC equipment authorization before they’re sold in the US. Bambu Lab files under the company name Shenzhen Tuozhu Technology, grantee code 2A6J8. Six grants from September 2026 carry names Bambu doesn’t sell yet.

FCC equipment authorization records, grantee 2A6J8, read on fcc.gov October 26, 2026. The name is the grant’s “description of product as it is marketed”. Dates are the FCC’s final action dates.

Bambu Lab S12A6J8-DS001Sept 22, 20265 GHzMarch 21, 2027

Each grant keeps its photos and user manuals confidential until March 2027. That’s why there are no official pictures of the P3C or X2D Pro anywhere yet. What is public is the radio paperwork: the name, the frequencies and the test results. None of it says what the product prints.

P3C, X2D Pro and AMS 3: filed, not announced

P3C. Granted on September 15, 2026, with 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio bands on the grant. Bambu Lab hasn’t said what it is or when it’s coming.

X2D Pro. Granted on September 11, 2026, the same day as the H3C. The name matches Bambu’s current X2D, which we’ve reviewed, but a shared name isn’t a spec sheet. Bambu Lab hasn’t announced it.

AMS 3H and AMS 3P. Two grants on September 21, 2026. AMS is the name Bambu uses for its multicolour filament units, and both grants list 13.56 MHz, the same band as the original AMS grant of June 2022. Which printers they work with, and what the H and P stand for, isn’t on any public record yet.

If any of these turns up on Bambu Lab’s own site, it moves up into the confirmed rows above.

What we don’t know yet

Everything below is open as of October 26, 2026. None of it is guessed on this page, and each line gets an answer here when Bambu Lab publishes one.

  • The price of the H3C, the S1 or anything else on this page.
  • The H3C’s build volume, tool count, speed and materials.
  • Whether H3C orders open on November 3 or later, and when it ships.
  • The S1’s day in November, its accuracy figures and what software it uses.
  • What the P3C and X2D Pro are, and whether either launches this year.
  • Which printers the AMS 3H and AMS 3P work with.

Prices you see elsewhere. Nobody outside Bambu Lab knows the H3C’s price before November 3. A figure without a link to Bambu’s own page is a guess.

Wait for the new Bambu printers or buy in the sale?

The dates answer most of this. Bambu Lab’s Black Friday sale runs from October 27 at 8:00 AM Eastern to December 1 at 2:00 AM Eastern. The H3C date, November 3, is a week into it. You can see what Bambu announces and still have about four weeks of the sale left.

Bambu lists these as its Black Friday prices from October 27, next to its typical price. They are the current machines whose names sit closest to the new ones: the H2C next to the H3C, the X2D next to the X2D Pro, and the P2S next to the P3C. A similar name doesn’t tell you the new machine replaces the old one.

Bambu Lab US store Black Friday page, read October 26, 2026. Bambu says the prices take effect on October 27. Combos include an AMS. Prices for every Bambu machine, checked daily, are on our Bambu Lab Black Friday page.

Our Bambu Lab Black Friday page tracks every Bambu Lab price through the sale, so you can see whether a deal holds. If you need a printer for a project this month, Nick’s P2S review covers the P2S in full.
