I switched over from the GTT45.
I read a review saying it's high-bounce but has a character close to a light tension rubber, and the fact that it comes in different thicknesses was the deciding factor for me to put it on the reverse side of my penhold blade.Compared to the GTT, I could tell right from bouncing the ball on it that the sheet is smooth and doesn't grip much, and it seems best to take the maker's claim of "high bounce" at face value. Hitting with it didn't change that impression.
That said, thanks to its softness, using the sinking of the ball to lift it up is easy, and even though the amount of spin is quite a bit lower, you still get some arc.
It also doesn't have a tendency to fly on its own, so the control is good too.
For better or worse, thanks to the sheet being insensitive, you can go for the ball without worrying too much about spin, so as long as you don't mind the quality of your returns, it was handy for holding back heavy loop topspin.
Since it's slippery, I think pushes will pop up unless you do them well.It seems good for building a feel for driving by hitting the ball solidly, so I'd call it a beginner's rubber that suits plastic balls.

I switched over from Rozena.
With Rozena, there were moments where I thought "it doesn't need to fly this much," but with this one I feel an honesty to it - it flies exactly as much as you put into the swing.Even with meeting-style shots, the ball settles on the table nicely.
For topspin drives, it's easy to add spin and get a nice arc, but my impression is more like "even if you're bad at generating spin, you can still get some" rather than having a particularly high ceiling.Also, since the ball sinks in nicely, I found it easy to add spin on serves too.
