Side-by-side documented facts
Facts below were checked against official sources on 3 Sep 2026. Prices, bundles and regional terms can change.
| Criterion | xTool P3 | Monport Reno65 Pro Vision |
|---|---|---|
| Laser process | CO2 · 80 W | CO2 · 65 W |
| Published work area | 915 × 458 mm | 600 × 400 mm |
| Enclosure / class context | Class 1 in the documented standalone configuration; adding the intelligent conveyor changes the system to Class 4 | Cabinet format, but the current August 2026 manual and product metadata explicitly classify the system as Class 4 |
| Ventilation context | IF2 2.0 inline fan included; AP2/AP2 Max filtration is separate unless included in the selected bundle | Integrated 80 CFM exhaust fan and 2 m hose; the manual requires a compliant exterior discharge or dedicated purifier |
| Machine dimensions | 1,250 × 780 × 496 mm in the product/manual table; the FAQ gives 808 mm depth, so plan the route conservatively | 1,000 × 690 × 285 mm in the current manual |
| Published weight | 105 kg | Official sources conflict: 41 kg in the manual and 40 kg in current product metadata |
| Rotary compatibility | Optional RA3/RA2; published ranges depend on roller, chuck, sphere and ring configuration | Rotary supported but not in the standard package; current manual lists a 124 mm material limit in rotary configuration |
| Electrical / cooling | 100–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz; official sources conflict between 1,400 W maximum and 1,700 W input · Built-in inverter water chiller with a 1,200 ml tank; use the exact manual's water and antifreeze instructions | 110–120 V, 60 Hz in North America; current manual lists 600 W machine consumption plus a 75 W pump and recommends a separate circuit/fuse where possible · Official sources conflict: the product title says built-in water cooling, while the August 2026 manual requires an included external 3,000 L/h pump and external tank or optional chiller. Confirm the shipped configuration in writing. |
| Software | xTool Studio on Windows/macOS via USB or Wi-Fi; reviewed P3 evidence did not establish LightBurn support | AutoLaser, LightBurn Pro and TopWisdom App; the machine-only US configuration does not include the LightBurn Pro license |
| Availability | US page listed standalone and bundled variants as available with 3–5 business-day shipping on 3 Sep 2026 | US presale on 3 Sep 2026; estimated early-October shipment |
| Published price | $6,999. US standalone price observed 3 Sep 2026; Versatile was $8,209 and All-in-one $10,459 | $2,749.99. US machine-only presale price observed 3 Sep 2026; early-October shipping estimate can change |
| Warranty context | Current US product page states 12 months; current UK page states 24 months, so match the region and SKU | Exact US page states two years for the machine and six months for the tube; the general policy does not explicitly name the 65 W category, so confirm in writing |
What xTool P3 does better
P3 documents an 80 W CO₂ source and a 915 × 458 mm work area, versus 65 W and 600 × 400 mm for Reno65. Its work area is about 75% larger by area, and the documented manual workflow can accept taller objects. Multiple cameras, LiDAR focus, AutoLift and built-in active cooling create a more automated configuration.
The current standalone configuration is documented as Class 1. That is a meaningful control advantage over Reno's Class 4 status, but it does not remove extraction, fire, material or supervision duties. Adding P3's conveyor changes the system to Class 4.
What Reno65 Pro Vision does better
Reno65's $2,749.99 US machine-only presale price was $4,249.01 below P3's $6,999 standalone price when checked on 3 Sep 2026. Its 600 × 400 mm area remains substantial, and the current manual lists LightBurn Pro, AutoLaser and TopWisdom App support.
At about 1,000 × 690 × 285 mm and roughly 40–41 kg in conflicting official records, Reno is materially smaller and lighter than the 105 kg P3. Its current manual also lists lower machine input, although complete electrical planning must include the external pump described by that manual.
Limitations of P3
Official xTool sources conflict between 1,400 W maximum and 1,700 W input, and between 780 and 808 mm machine depth. Use the larger depth for conservative route planning and verify the nameplate/electrical requirement for the exact SKU.
Standalone price does not include every optional rotary, conveyor or filtration component. Current reviewed evidence lists xTool Studio but did not establish P3 LightBurn support. Do not turn the vendor's maximum speed into expected signs or jobs per hour.
Limitations of Reno65 Pro Vision
The current product title says built-in water cooling, while the August 2026 manual requires an included external 3,000 L/h pump, external reservoir or optional chiller. Obtain the actual shipped cooling configuration in writing before purchase.
Reno's manual and product metadata classify it as Class 4. Official sources also conflict on weight, pass-through width and some resolution claims. The presale shipping date can move, and the general warranty policy does not cleanly name the 65 W category.
Who should choose each—or neither
Choose P3 when larger panels, taller items and automated placement materially improve a defined workflow, and the shop can support its price, route, weight and xTool Studio process. Choose Reno when 600 × 400 mm is enough, LightBurn matters, and a competent Class 4 installation plus written cooling confirmation are acceptable.
Choose neither for direct bare-metal marking as the primary job, unidentified stock, inadequate exhaust or fire controls, no controlled Class 4 area where required, or a delivery/electrical plan that remains unresolved.
