Thank you for the review!
A question: the cons listed mention that the printer is hard to upgrade, but the article doesn't seem to say much about that. Could you go into more detail as to why it is harder to upgrade than other printers?

I guess the reviewer had to give a negative to make it not look like it was too much of a positive review but didn't think he needed to explain why. The first heading of this review:

"Creality Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro: Included in the Box"

Creatily Elegoo. Sigh.

When talking about upgrading a printer weak spots need to be identified first.
The first Enders, and even later revisions, had a ton of weak spots when compared to certain benchmark printers such as the Prusa Mk3, so the upgradability was high.
Fast forward to this printer and taking note of what typically gets upgraded to make a printer better/more reliable... there simply is very little left to actually improve.
32-bit board, quiet, dual synced Z, direct drive, LED lighting, inductive bed leveling - this thing pretty much has all the upgrades already built into it

The only thing I can see as a possible upgrade is linear rails, given the front-heavy design of the extruder but other than that I got nothing.
