This is for people who feel like the V15 Extra is pointless unless you hit at 120% all the time, which is hard to do in an actual match, but the V11 got lighter and easier to handle at the cost of a lighter feel too. It felt kind of like a "manual" version of Tenergy 05.
The feel is way softer than the stated hardness (maybe around 48 degrees?), but the ball that comes out leans toward the stated hardness. Since the trajectory is basically low, you need to put spin on the ball to get it to land on the table, but the nice thing about this rubber is that you can be a bit sloppy about it and it still works. For counters, you don't have to force your racket angle up — it goes in reasonably well at your normal angle (it dips and then extends), so I think it's an excellent rubber.
What's surprising is hitting against backspin — it grips the ball so firmly that it feels like there's no backspin it can't bring up over the net. It receives the ball with a soft feel and then sends it flying with its high hardness. That's the opposite impression from what I described above, and I found that interesting.
The ideal way to play with this rubber isn't to swing desperately with everything you've got — it's more about pushing your opponent back while you handle the ball up close.

Every technique is easy, starting with the drive. Serves grip well too. Even drives from below the table go in. I'd recommend this to loop-drive-focused players. It feels soft for its hardness rating, and it makes playing table tennis really satisfying. It makes a good sound too. The trajectory is high, letting you play consistently. The downside is a short lifespan — the sheet gets slick quickly.

Switched over from Hurricane.
The heavy ball quality and high trajectory you get from a hard rubber were as expected. The maximum spin dropped a bit, but the speed performance exceeded my expectations — I don't lose out in counters or topspin rallies, and even when blocked I can keep sending heavy balls back one after another.
The sponge is hard, but the sheet is a bit soft — it's a tension rubber with a tacky-rubber-like feel.
For what it's worth, an inner ZLC blade gives a more stable arc than an outer ALC.
On the forehand, compared to 05 Hard: the 05 has more consistent ball quality and is easier to control, while the V20 feels a bit rougher. At first the 05 has more spin, but after 20-30 hours of use it flips around and the V20 grips the ball noticeably more.
Like Hurricane, you can get spin whether you graze the ball or hit into it, which is a relief for tacky-rubber users since you don't have to change your swing.
On the backhand, compared to Dignics 80: the 80 gets its spin from the sheet with the sponge adding speed (though going all the way into the sponge makes it bounce too much), whereas with the V20 sinking into the sponge gives you speed, and the sheet adds a bit of spin on top. Personally, rather than the 80 where everything just flies, I prefer the V20, which is hard and keeps the short game more controlled — the contrast makes a lot of techniques easier to use.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I'm currently using this since VICTAS just released it.
Using max thickness on both forehand and backhand (5-ply blade)
Just like the manufacturer claims, the feel doesn't seem like 52.5 degrees at all.
You barely feel the hardness, so it's satisfying to hit with. The sheet is great, so the grip on the ball is amazing. I do feel the sheet has a bit of a quirk to it though.
Spin is easy to generate and speed comes out too, but it feels a little hard to control. That said, surprisingly, everything is easy — blocks, drives against backspin, counters, serves. (This just takes getting used to. You have to adjust your power and shot placement yourself, so it seems like a good opportunity to level up.)
In the end, I feel like it's fine on either forehand or backhand for me personally. (I think it's suited to intermediate players whose form has already stabilized.)

Even on an outer-ply blade, you can control it well and push the pace with speed.
It's not like it doesn't spin at all, so you can score with serves and loop drives, but it'd be tough to win on that alone.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

First off, the power is incredible. Even with a full swing, the ball still lands on the table.
But unlike other rubbers, my counters and blocks never sailed long at all.
Serves and loops grip well too.
That said, if you're used to the V15, this might feel a little lacking.
If you're going to put it on a blade, I'd recommend an outer-ply one.

Upper-intermediate level (forehand-focused, backhand as a connecting shot)
Currently using it on my backhand
My backhand is at an intermediate level, so I've been trying out a lot of different rubbers
Impressions
It lands pretty good quality shots fairly consistently
I've used DNA Platinum XH and H before
DNA has more spin and speed
But because it's more aggressive, it's touchier and harder to control for overshooting and pushes
I've also had Fastarc C1
Same ease of use, but more spin and speed
Even with a loose, grazing swing that feels like it should miss, it goes in surprisingly often
Countering is easy too
Easy to handle for how hard it is
Push, stop, and chiquita are all easy too
It's one of those recent rubbers that pops the ball up on its own
More of a match rubber than a practice rubber
Even against an opponent's ball for the first time, it's easy to return, and since you can return it with decent quality, you can make your opponent miss more than in practice
One thing to note: advanced players might feel the spin is a bit lacking
You'll make fewer mistakes yourself, but you'll also make your opponent miss less
You'll get countered more easily too
For me the pros outweigh the cons — it's a good rubber, so I've made it my main oneAll Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
