- Best for Wildly fast print speeds — high-speed Benchy printed in ~18 minutes; Best-in-class textured PEI bed adhesion; parts release easily after cooling.
- Skip if Bed leveling requires manual input (mixed auto/manual) — a step back from the Neptune 3 Pro is a dealbreaker.

What reviewers say about the Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro
Only one whitelisted tester with a live page — Tom's Hardware, hands-on — covered this exact model. It earns an Editor's Choice: wildly fast sub-19-minute Benchy prints, a best-in-class adhesive textured PEI bed, and linear rods on X/Y, though the mixed manual/automatic bed leveling is called its primary weak point.
Based on 1 review · 1 lab-tested · 2023-11-19
Tested by Tom's Hardware
Consistently praised
- Wildly fast print speeds — high-speed Benchy printed in ~18 minutes
- Best-in-class textured PEI bed adhesion; parts release easily after cooling
- Linear rods on X/Y and a powerful 5.2:1 direct-drive extruder, uncommon sub-$300
- Robust part cooling enables steep PLA overhangs without warping
Commonly flagged
- Bed leveling requires manual input (mixed auto/manual) — a step back from the Neptune 3 Pro
- Sport-mode part cooling fans are very loud, audible across a room
Where reviewers disagree Only one whitelisted source has a live, extractable page, so no cross-source comparison is possible. The Tom's Hardware verdict is therefore uncontested here rather than corroborated.
The sources (1)
High-speed Benchy print time (pre-sliced, hands-on): 18 minutes · Sandcastle model print time (OrcaSlicer default 0.2mm profile): 9 hours 14 minutes · No-Spill Nuln Oil 7-part paint holder print time (no brim/raft/adhesive): 24 minutes · One Piece Compliant Mechanism Blaster print time (Elegoo Grey PLA, 0.2mm): just over 2 hours
The Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro is a formidable printer, and effectively crushes the competition in the sub-$300 price range with wildly fast print speeds and an impressive part cooling system.
The textured PEI sheet included with the Neptune 4 Pro is best-in-class for adhesion
The calibration is a mixed automatic / manual process, and is the primary weak point in this otherwise impressive machine.
