I can only speak from the perspective of US available parts. The trident is a much closer 'competetor' to Bambu's offerings, so I will use that as the comparison. Since Bambu's offerings are 256mm^3 I'll compare against the 250mm^3 trident.
Note that there are some sales going on for the various offerings below, but the trident is only somewhat more expensive once you factor in things like ASA/ABS for the printed parts.
Bambu's X1c is $1,200
Bambu's B1B is $600
A LDO bom-in-a-box trident is $1,200
A Formbot bom-in-a-box trident is $650
I was able to print functional prints on my old i3 clone with two spools of ASA, so add $70 there. All I did to my i3 clone was tape together a couple of cardboard boxes to make a quick/dirty enclosure.
