xTool F2 5W IR & 15W Diode Dual Laser Engraver

Quick verdict

Based on published specs and editorial comparison, the F2 5W IR plus 15W diode is the portable, small-batch member of the family, built around a 50MP camera and a stated 6000mm/s for on-site and craft-fair workflows. Its IR-plus-diode pairing handles metal color marking and everyday materials without the bulk of the bigger MOPA units. Best for mobile makers who prioritize a compact desktop footprint over maximum wattage or bed size.
