This review has high information content per minute (looking at you @Susquatch!), and appears to be a really good feature comparison. there is a very short section on a print test also.

Thanks @Dabbler Most of the Youtube Bambu A1 'reviews' are basically 'unboxing' videos; this one is better than that.
She glosses over the price differential pretty quickly.
As compared (without taxes) - no AMS, which isn't available on the Prusa- to me in Canada the Prusa would be $1565 and the Bambu would be $555.
Since the performance is pretty much the same, that's paying a lot for the (reputed) better customer service from Prusa.
I've been using my Bambu A1 + AMS Lite almost continuously for the past couple of weeks. After the first few irritating hours, it's been flawless printing PLA do-dads.
