New R3 Sun Release

The M2 XL was a weird one. Of course the store I visited had the regular M2 on the other side of the store so I couldn't be bothered to awkwardly bring it over. But yeah...on quick glace I didn't notice the change in volume, but rather the end cuts where towards tabs that enter the frame. Only then my eyes could make out the added height. Still don't know what to make of it co-existing with the Radar EV, other than it serves as a strap-compatible option in the lineup with a lighter hold.

To me the M2XL actually seems to have more volume than the EV due to the lack of venting and side lens hold. I also think that the lower price point and the fact it's kinda straight stem and so can be worn with a cap no problem make it a good option for some. However most will probably still go for the EV.
