Yup, all the Bambu printers are pretty good. I'm quite happy with my P1S + AMS. Definitely a better choice for a beginner than the Enders and similarly cheap project printers that many people start out with.
You can always buy an AMS later if you don't want to now, but the utility of it for me is more around having multiple filaments to choose from without having to load a new filament rather than multicolour printing which is very slow and wasteful.
I wouldn't bother with a filament dryer. I live in a pretty humid climate and between work and home I've been 3D printing things for over a decade and have never felt the need to dry my filament. I'd only really consider it if I was starting to print Nylon or something similarly hygroscopic.
Awesome, thank you for the info, probably pulling the trigger today 😁
