I'm ready to upgrade

Yep - this one. My current favourite recommend: https://www.amazon.com/HICTOP-Indepe...45&sr=8-4&th=1

Although this - I think - is a slightly newer model: https://www.amazon.co.uk/TENLOG-TL-D...s%2C192&sr=8-5
That's the one I'd look for.

As far as I know it's the ONLY i3 currently being sold with linear rails on all three axis.
And everything else follows the same high spec. Makes creality machines look like the cheap, unfinished poorly designed kit they are.

As far as autolevel goes - it's pretty much not needed if the printer comes with an actually flat bed.
And with borosilicate glass - it's a lot more likely to be flat than cheap aluminium beds.

Would I take autolevel over linear rails ? Not in this lifetime !

Anyway that's pretty much the best specced un-enclosed sub $1000 3d printer you can currently buy.

And it's IDEX :-) Oh yeah !
Did I mention hi-temp 300c hotends ? It has 300c hotends :-)

UNless that's just the smaller one. https://www.amazon.com/TENLOG-Hands-...8CSHTKNG&psc=1

Hmm, ah here we go: https://www.tenlog3d.com/tenlog-tl-d...rsion_p11.html
