I am currently looking for the best 3D scanner, because I want something accurate, easy to use, and reliable for my projects. I’ve done some research through YouTube reviews, tech blogs, and user feedback, and these two scanners keep coming up as strong options:

Revopoint 3D scanners
Creality 3D scanners

I’m having trouble deciding which one is better, so I’d really appreciate advice—especially from people who use 3D scanning regularly.I want a scanner that Has good accuracy and details, easy to use and reliable ,Works for small and medium objects , decent software and tracking ,Offers good value for moneyFrom what I’ve learned, Revopoint is known for portability and good precision, while Creality often has faster scanning and strong hardware performance. However, both have pros and cons depending on workflow and software.For example, some comparisons show Creality scanners can offer faster speed and strong tracking, while Revopoint models are portable and work across many platforms.Any suggestions, comparisons, or personal experiences with Revopoint vs Creality would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

ou want raw power and speed, go with Creality (specifically the Otter or Raptor). They are currently crushing it when it comes to surge credit card app scanning dark or metallic objects without needing a bunch of messy scanning spray.

Hi,

It would really help if you could share a bit more detail about what you’re planning to scan

What size are the objects? Are they simple shapes or more complex/organic? Do they have fine details, shiny surfaces, tight tolerances, etc? That makes a big difference when choosing the right tool

Also, these days you might not even need a dedicated scanner. With modern photogrammetry tools you can build a pretty solid 3D model just from photos or a short video. For example, Artec Studio can process images or video and generate good-quality geometry, which you can then export as OBJ or STL

So before investing in hardware, it’s worth defining the exact use case - you might be able to keep things simpler (and cheaper)
