TL;DR: It’s not the brand, they all suck, although Elegoo has remained popular for a reason. I’m up to having owned 7 resin printers. 4 of those are Elegoo, and I’ve owned a Phrozen and currently own an Anycubic (along with 2 Saturns). I’m quite critical of the resin printer market, but Elegoo has a

To be fair, other than heygears, recommending a resin printer is like picking a poison :D That Halot X1 is likely a decent printer, I personally don't like the plate design (I like to print directly on the plate if the model is suitable for that) and matrix light source is in general a little worse

There are maybe 4 or 5 good quality affordable options right now but each has a downside. These are the models I’d consider & why I’d be hesitant. Heygears Reflex RS Turbo - too locked down and upgrading for the heated vat is an extra expense. Messy flat build plate. Anycubic P1/P1 Max - I’m unsure

One of the admins here has one and says good things about it. I believe he has a review if you search. Otherwise, the Halot X1 is over twice the build area/volume of a Mars 5. That’s not something to ignore. It also doesn’t have any issues around auto-leveling. Personally I would lean X1.

Depends on what you precisely want to do. Considering I just went through this process and settled on a P1S due to not having a space I can safely set up a resin station, I'll try to go over the considerations. So you showed off a really nice Ghazghkull riff, what quality are you expecting to get? M

It's within the realm of normal. My Halot X1 runs an exposure of 1.9sec.

How is the Halot X1 with heating / and managing resin? Heating and filling is great. Pumping the resin back out isn't perfect, as it leaves a small amount in the bottom of the vat. What would make you pick the Saturn if it has heating? The tilt release mechanism for the vat. I think that does wonder

Yes same. I got in the habit of not using it in my shed over winter (until I made an enclosure, with ventilation and filters, so I could use it in house). I also I have had my eye on the creality HALOT-X1 as possiblity my next printer as it has the heated resin vat, pump on vat (for auto refilll or
