Mid-range, which is the problem
A Photon Mono 4 with self-checks, leveling-free setup and the WiFi the base machine does without. As a machine there is nothing wrong with it.
At list price the Mars 5 Ultra beats it on features for the same money, which makes this a sale-day purchase or no purchase. An older claim that it carries the sharpest panel of 2026 is false: 14 × 19 µm machines exist at similar money.
Best at: The Mono 4 workflow with the manual steps removed.
Worst at: Its price against the Mars 5 Ultra.
