Release of the Portrait 3 (with sale bundles and free shipping)

August 21, 2020 By Cindy Eckhoff 2 Comments

If you haven’t heard, let me be the first to tell you — Silhouette has released the Portrait 3 machine. Keep reading to find out the features and learn about sales for materials to use with it.

Note: This post contains affiliate links. That means if you click the link and purchase something, I may receive a small commission. You pay the same price. This helps me to be able to keep my business going and provide more tutorials.

What’s new in the Portrait 3?

Let’s talk about the features of the Portrait 3 that are different from the Portrait 2. They are all features that were introduced with the Cameo 4:

  • An updated tool chamber. That means there’s a new AutoBlade type for it and it resets fasters It includes adapters for using older style tools (except for the earlier AutoBlade types).
  • Automatic tool detection. The machine can tell if you have a tool in and what type it is. The blades and adapters have a special metal strip across the back that gives that information.

  • Matless cutting for materials like paper and cardstock with the Pop-Out cutting feature. Yes, you read that right — you can cut paper without a mat. The machine leaves tiny tabs that connect the cut piece to the material, like it’s perforated.

In all other respects, it’s the same as the Portrait 2.

      Hi Dav– Silhouette America does not have a trade-in program. Your best bet would be to try to sell your Portrait 2 if you would like the 3.
