Pros & Cons
Creality CR-Laser Falcon 10W
What we like
- Meaningful power step up from the 5W at a similarly low $199 price
- Cuts 6mm basswood or 5mm black acrylic in a single pass
- Same large 400×415mm work area
- Light and portable at 3.2kg
Watch out for
- Class 4 (FDA) open-beam laser — safety glasses required and sold separately
- No air assist, camera, or WiFi included
- Manual focus only
- Oldest design generation in the current lineup
LaserPecker LP1 Pro
What we like
- Very low $299 entry price
- Extremely compact and foldable — 600g, fits in a bag or drawer
- Simple app-based workflow, good for total beginners and kids' projects (with supervision)
- 10,000+ hour rated laser lifespan
- Optional auto-focus stand accessory removes manual focusing
Watch out for
- Very slow 20mm/s (1,200mm/min) engraving speed — the slowest machine in the current lineup
- Extremely low 0.5W power — engraving only, cannot cut anything
- No enclosure included — amber safety shield sold separately
- Bluetooth only, no WiFi
- Now superseded in speed and workflow by the newer LP1 Plus at a similar price
