Yes, even the v2 required a lot of assembly and you have to deal with eccentric nuts and delrin V wheels and crap in order to make it print right. The v3 has proper linear rods on the Y axis, no wheels to adjust the bed, everything assembled with like 6 screws. It's leagues ahead of the v2.
Thanks for the response. I'll look into getting one then :)
You're welcome to message me directly if you have any questions about it -- the biggest piece of advice is don't go changing a bunch of crap out of the box as many on the internet will tell you to do. Just download creality slicer, choose the Ender 3 v3 SE, and print. Maybe turn on/off supports as needed. Use the "Level" option when you first turn on the machine, and then print your file. I've had complete technophobes able to run this machine with little to no problem.
