I'm actually in the EU too. And i want to get a Prusa MKIV next year.
I don't really push speed in my printing though, I currently have actual print times of about 38m on a benchy with my 0.6mm nozzle at 0.4mm layer height for reasonable quality. Can't speed up beyond 90mm/s without significant loss in quality though. Don't think it's filament related however, had the same thing with other filaments, even stuff like wood and steel PLA mixes.
But yeah, my experience has been that at about 20 Euro a kilo on Amazon eSun PLA+ is excellent value for money. But I avoid their resin's like the plague. Worst resin I ever printed with. .
I've not used that printer, but eSUN PLA+ is my goto filament! It's strong, affordable, high quality and produces good prints. I have found though it wants high temp printing. 225C seems to be the sweet spor on my sidewinder X2.
Try printing a temp tower because it's stringy as fuck or downright brittle at the wrong temps.
Same. And same.
I have a Mars 2 Pro which was quite cheap when the 3 came out. Excellent, extremely fine detail printing. More brittle than filament, but on the other hand very heat resistant. But a very small build volume.
I also have an Artillery Sidewinder X2. That one can print huge stuff. I upgraded to the all metal extruder, and 0.6mm hardened steel nozzle. That means it can print basically every kind of filament, and with layer lines of up to 0.4mm it can print huge objects really fast. So fast on big stuff, but lower detail quality. Different trade offs making it really good for different tasks. I printed a vase mode bin for my plastic waste last week that used almost the entire build volume in about 9 hours. But I also have some mods on it - several of which i actually printed on the resin printer !
They are both really good at different types of jobs. If you are getting a first printer though, think about what you want to do and buy the best one. If you want to make jewelry, art of tabletop minis - nothing beats resin. You can't get a solid one for 200 bucks or so (maybe another 50-75 for materials, PPE and a curing chamber). If you want to build large, functional parts - get an FDM printer.
Oh and resin is actually fantastic for lithophanes, especially if you have a flex plate. Print directly on the plate and your photo will have fantastic quality, and only take about 10m to print because of the whole-layer-at-once printing method.
Everyone else covered the main details, I'll just add if you want to use an Xbox series X controller I found the Microsoft wireless dongle works best for wireless usage.
You would need to install the third-party xone kernel module though.
