They give better definition and seem more well rounded, the black are kinda meh (using IO mag xl). I also really like the everyday green. I’m in Washington though so we get very little in the way of bright sun!
^^^ All of this: Blacks are overkill. Sun Red is good. The Everyday lenses are excellent.

And yes, ChromaPop Storm Rose Flash Lens for bad wheather is good (no need to pay the premium for the yellow ones).

Ok, I received my two standard Squads yesterday. ChromaPop Storm Rose Flash and ChromaPop Sun Red Mirror.

I don't have space issues when I go to the mountains, I can bring 2 or 3 goggles, I use one and the others remain in the car.
If I'll ever do another international snowboard trip (but I highly doubt it - my life is a lot busier right now, and also the flight prices went up a lot in the last few years), I can take just one frame and two lenses and manage the lens change.

They are the exact same size as my Airblaster AirGoggle, which is super good, and they are a good fit on my face.
Right now the airgoggle feel a little bit more comfortable, but they are definitely broken in, I have used them for some years, now.
In few days on the mountains I guess they are going to feel the same.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions :)

(... and now I need a new helmet...)

Grabbed the new Anon goggle day case to replace my Dakine one. The dakine one was a bit tight with one frame and 3 lenses for travel. This one will hold 2 sync frames, 3 spare lens and a MFI mask with ease. Vent on top is a nice touch.

One more thing I didn't know I needed, they'll probably sell out thanks to EL.

Speaking of, I kinda feel like Dakine fell off the map after they left the PNW to pursue their "LA market" or whatever. Their outerwear and baselayer lines are completely gone and I just don't see them around much on the hill or in the scene anymore.
