Pros & Cons
Pros
It's a fantastic for printer beginners because they've got lots of features. It's reasonably intuitive to navigate, although the ability for the scroll button to click would be nice. Well worth the money. I am genuinely impressed.

For me this isnt a huge issue though if you were building a print farm with maybe 100 of these that may be a factor

This has been replaced with a single usb c wire which even has data lines for you to plug and play a bltouch which allows you to auto bed level without needing to change any firmware or do any cabling

The auto heat function is a bit of a pain because it takes a while to kick in
