Creality Ender-3 V3 Plus

The Creality Ender 3 V3 Plus is the larger 300×300×330 mm V3 variant with CoreXZ kinematics, a Sprite direct-drive extruder, and full bed auto-calibration. Owners come here to use the big bed without warp on long models, to push the stock profile past 300 mm/s without ghosting on the walls, and to debug first-layer instability or early-batch auto-calibration errors.

The main complaints are 300×300 bed warp after 100 hours, CoreXZ desync on large models, occasional auto-calibration errors, and fan noise at top speed. Before swapping the bed, check Z tension and corner-by-corner first-layer geometry with a feeler gauge. If you just unboxed it, start with the first-layer guide and strain-gauge calibration; after 200+ hours, walk through the belts and bearings checklist. Stock firmware is stable — only update for a specific fix.
